They’ve walked through us there
Poor too watch tonight
Yup just re-watching old PO games and Leeds Derby, Leeds were in complete control until a defensive mix up allowed Derby back in the game they eventually turned it around
Speaking of, no one gave Derby a prayer to the turn the tie around so we must go in with belief we can do it!
We're going to smash these 4-0 away from home and end the tie.
Sky are desperate for that to be the final
If we had a decent centre forward (or one that wasn't constantly crippled) then you could easily make the case that he'd be nearing 20 assists this season. His delivery is constantly very good.
Terrible terrible terrible. I fear for the 2nd leg when so much was wasted here today.
I see that Mark Lawrenson, is saying that WBA is the best team in the playoffs, kiss of?? Or not
Heeeeeeey Russell Martin, ooooooh aaaaah.
I wanna know ooooh oh oh,
Why you're such a C (heese)?
Southampton are the worst team we could have ended up with for those.
The last two seasons kits have been exceptional. Navy and white and no additional colours or stupidity. My understanding is they were designed by fans and it showed. If Macron are our new supplier hopefully the same design input is forthcoming. Navy and white, no additional colours, no idiotic design extravaganza, stripes et al.
Given our entire league campaign has not been co governed by VAR I see no reason why it should be used in the playoffs OR the playoff final. I honestly don't see why it should be used during FA Cup games played at Premier League venues when it's not available to EFL clubs during the rest of the competition either. Let's be honest, the VAR usage in the Huddersfield v Forest playoff final was nothing less than an utter joke anyway.
I agree KYA so long as we don’t get those players nicked from us by the predators above before we’ve realised any value from them.
And I agree as well about not knowing what we want, because the PL is not fundamentally based on having the best coaches or recruitment. We can never win it, or even compete at the top end of it, and that’s equally true for more than half the clubs in it. If we get back there it will mostly be a miserable survival struggle.
So why bother, other than for cold, financial reasons that have nothing to do with why we love our clubs? And that’s a big problem for the game, which the FA has helped to create and does absolutely nothing to address.
We are long overdue a proper regulator in the wider interests of the sport - the FA is too compromised by its involvement in the creation of the PL in the first place and has now found itself overpowered by the big franchises it helped to unleash at the top. They are incapable of regulating in the wider interests of the game.
And that is why the game is where it is, and why clubs like Albion have no real chance of winning anything anymore. And even smaller clubs have no dreams.
When he first came he was a liability, definitely benefited from CCs coaching
And to add to that they were the best team i have seen at the Hawthorns this season.
Even if we did win the playoffs which would be brilliant, the gulf in class between the Championship and the Premier League is huge and likely we would be thrashed every week.
One only has to look at last year’s promotion teams to see the evidence as each one face relegation. Occasionally, you get an exception such as Brentford or Forest but they built a good squad and survived the drop but only just for the time being.
Spot on Standaman - take a bow. Unfortunately we didn’t do it before the 3 last games so had us sweating.
Those awaiting a failure can put the knives back into the kitchen draw, for now.
Well done CC, a brilliant job.
This is very winable.
