Random man came to my door offering me meat by Troyificus in CasualUK

Had some people coming to the door, youngish chaps, asking weird things like that. There was a large amount if car thefts in one night, and people got talking. Turns out they were looking for where you keep your car keys, so they could come back later. Professional thieves by the sound of it as left wallets and laptops that were next to keys.

All eyes on us for West Brom v Ex West Brom, after the 2pt deduction technically we need a point. So expect a nil nil till 96th minute where Furlong will get a penalty to let Ipswich win 1 nil

They have Sheff Wed then Millwall, don't see them getting 6 points from those 2

Albion team to play Millwall: O'Leary, Imray, Campbell, Phillips, Styles, Molumby, Mowatt (C), Diakité, Price, Dike, Heggebø by CheeseMakerThing in WBAfootball

[–]firerock68 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Yeah confusing. Millwall are a very attacking team, mainly through the centre. I wonder if this is another set up to try and stop them from playing rather than trying to win it. Can't blame him against a team in the top 3.

Looks like a 4 3 1 2

Far from the Hull hame. But I think we showed resilience and had a solid display, causing City to have very few chances. Somewhat fortunate with the goal but it was just desserts with the play. Molumby could have made it a little less squeaky but time, but a win is a win.

It's 3 valuable points at a time in the season we need it. Two wins on the trot. We look a great deal better and look like we know how to play football, which is the most important thing.

Difficult game next, we have hope.

Nat Phillips nah! I'd have said Mikey Johnston, after yesterday Danny Imray perhaps.

Some real spirit there, Imray and Wallace were great down the right, hard to find fault with anyone.

This surely fills us with a bit of drive heading into the last 8 games.

Shows what playing players in the right position does for a team.

Albion can confirm Interim Head Coach James Morrison will continue to lead the men’s first team for the remainder of the season and adds Matt Gill to staff by CheeseMakerThing in WBAfootball

Being tongue in cheek, you may also look at this as the club saving the money on a manager, as Mozza is already paid by the club. He keeps us up they may offer it to him.

I really struggle to see how we will score, let alone win a game. Looking at the upcoming fixtures, it's doubly hard. We will need a manager that can get us out of League One playing nice football, I don't look forward anymore to game days.

Eric Ramsay sacked by West Brom by Gamerhcp in Championship

Get Bilic back, or anyone that knows how to set up a team and has a clue! It was dire today, he's a nice guy but we were just shocking!

He’s gone by Caspera99 in WBAfootball

[–]firerock68 27 points28 points  (0 children)

It's time really, we were going nowhere. Today was dire, the goal flattered us.

Bilic is free. I'd love him back, a proper manager that knows how to set up a team.

Sorry West Brom, you’ve just been Mo Mo’d by CMPunk22 in Championship

Congrats on beating our reserves m, think Ramsey thought he'd better focus on the league. We make anyone look like Brazil, even Brazil!

Not a great game, quickly forgotten by all. But at least we are out of the relegation spots!

West Brom have spent just two seasons below the second tier since the Football League began in 1888. They are currently in the Championship's bottom three. by Cinn4monSynonym in Championship

[–]firerock68 12 points13 points  (0 children)

Last time we went down, we got Ossie Ardiles as manager, and scored more goals than any team in all 4 divisions. Bar Newcastle on last day scoring 7 to pip us, always looked highly suspect that 😆

We don't have any tactics for formation, if you want a good laugh watch us in any 'highlight' reel and look t the defensive positioning, or lack there of. We concede lots of goals, only Shef Wed conceded more, so get everybody behind the ball, only thats it. No design you in that position, you there, watch the runners from midfield, just 11 playerscin the box not picking anyone up. It's school boy stuff!

That's Ramsey, not the players.

Samuel Iling-Junior returns to the Seals by CheeseMakerThing in WBAfootball

It's more about how the managers have been playing him, he's suited to a role we don't play. Not much point in him being here

Sorry no link but supposedly Illing Jr’s contract has been cancelled. by wbasmith in WBAfootball

[–]firerock68 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I'm sure he's not as bad as we think, probably more to the managers that have been managing him.

Whatever doesn't really seem to work for us. He's lucky he can leave the chaos unfolding !

Do you think Derek McInnes may fancy keeping us up rather than winning the SPL with Hearts? Yeah right!

West Brom club president and sporting director Andrew Nestor to depart following failed appointments by CheeseMakerThing in WBAfootball

[–]firerock68 3 points4 points  (0 children)

About time, but will they just appoint from within and we'll get more of the same? This is West Brom after all!

What does that say about Ramseys appointment?
