Season defining game tonight in Watford

Really? With how many games to go?

[cyrille]

He does talk some bollocks, doesn't he.

Anyway, just out of interest, does anybody know who the top performing team in the top four divisions was until yesterday?

27 points out of the last 30 they'd won, this time yesterday.

[hallelujah]

Cracking result yesterday, but you've still got a hell of a scrap on to make those play off places. Fair play to Corberan though for taking you from where you were.

[cyrille]

Barnstorming record at home, crap away is where we are at right now.

Hopefully Dike's brace last night is the beginning of a great run of goalscoring from him.

well Watford showed the gap in quality

can the baggies make the play offs?

[hallelujah]

can the baggies make the play offs?

Apart from Burnley, everybody seems capable of beating each other in that league and you could go as far down as 14th and still say you're in with a shout. Hell, maybe even 15th too if you get 3 or 4 wins on the bounce.

i have a oner riding on the Baggies and Borough finishing in the top 6 and so far the Brummies are letting me down

[hallelujah]

I just got recommened this on Youtube.



The best footballer I have ever seen in my life.

[malmomike77]

where is Adrian Childs, he needs to explain why the baggies are so shite, Symp won't, the flake.

[cyrille]

Fuck that was dull.

[Joe 90]

Fuck that was dull.

Not as bad at your second team though

[Joe 90]

45 minutes left to save your play off hopes.

[david44]

At least the unfashionable Baggies weren't taken over by Abramovich or Arab dictators. Good luck to em

[hallelujah]

Big game on Monday- Watford at home.

I'm sure the relegated teams will be there or thereabouts, but I imagine Blackburn, Boro and WBA will be too. I haven't been keeping tabs on it to a great deal but maybe Luton too if they didn't end up selling most of their team from last year. I haven't checked. Outside shout for Millwall from what (little) I've read about what they've done pre season.

Burnley looked very impressive last week.

Only Cy's baggies letting me down from that post back in August! Hal knew.

[malmomike77]

The Baggies doing an Arse, no chance of a top 6 now

[Joe 90]

A Blades winner to seal promotion or a Baggies winner to boost their play-off hopes?

[Joe 90]

Sheffield United beat West Brom at Bramall Lane to win promotion back to the Premier League after two years in the Championship.

Norway international Sander Berge gave the home side the lead after the break when he was teed up by Iliman Ndiaye following an awfully under-hit backpass from Taylor Gardner-Hickman.

The Blades, who went into the game needing just three points from four games to secure promotion, had been sluggish up until then but overwhelmed the away side from thereon and Anel Ahmedhodzic scored with a controlled close range volley to seal victory with just under 15 minutes to play.

Paul Heckingbottom's side will join title winners Burnley in the top flight next season.

The play-off chasing visitors had enjoyed the better of things up until the opening goal but Karlan Grant headed a great chance wide in the opening minutes and a penalty shout was turned down when Brandon Thomas-Asante was felled on the edge of the area.

Berge's goal totally knocked the stuffing out of Carlos Corberan's men though and the Blades' margin of victory could have been more comprehensive at the end.

Their 26th league win of the season takes them seven points clear of third-placed Luton who only have two fixtures left.

West Brom, who were playing their game in hand on the sides around them, remain two points outside the top six with matches against play-off rivals Norwich and Swansea to finish the campaign.

I'm guessing at this point sybille is hiding behind the sofa.

[harrybarracuda]

7th.... 6th..... 8th......

[malmomike77]

^ he's certainly not knocking one out on the balcony

^ he's certainly not knocking one out on the balcony

Well he might be, you don't know his neighbours.

[malmomike77]

Wat?.

[harrybarracuda]

Wat?.

Fuck off, you started it.

Fucking hell the baggies are back in front but the need a goal elsewhere.

Poor sybille. Nerves must be frayed.

[harrybarracuda]

Oh dear, now the mackems are spoiling the party. With an on-loan Moaners player.
