Solid performance. Special mention to Livermore thought he was awesome.

Superb first half , passed and pulled Stoke all over .
Dont want to be critical but again we chose wrong options in the final third at key times , maybe im being too harsh.
Second half because we missed those chances / potential chances we made it hard on ourselves and reverted to sitting a bit deep and smashing it clear.....a bit of a set back but even the biggest Pulis critic can see this side can play at times.
Livermore, Fletcher, Morrison , Rondon and Gmac all top class.
As for Stoke they were better 2nd half but lacked any cutting chances apart from Pieters header when Phillips fell fast asleep.One point for all the foriegn , big money signings in my view Stokes best players were Allen and Shawcross by a mile.
Good to get a clean sheet and you know who not getting a kick, this side of ours is decent.

Massive, massive win for so many reasons. Fantastic first half and we looked dangerous at times in the second. Well done Albion. We are a class above in more ways than just our performances.

soon to be 'we wanna be West Brom'

They must be a bit miffed at losing to smaller team that's never won anything.

If ever there was a 1-0 drubbing.........

Please people go read the oatcake..its superb

Rondon is apparently s**t, and always has been

The ref was terrible

If they had put away their 2 chances they would've won, forgetting about our 10 chances

Pulls is a w***** for not shaking hands with Hughes even though it was Hughes who ignored him

And apparently Stokies are slapping Baggies fans after the match

I love reading that forum its utter comedy gold

Oh and Pulis is a hoof w***** not much hoof ball to me, apart from watching Stoke lump it up to Crouch, if they think backwards and sideways passes from Allen is good football then perhaps they should keep their hoof statements to themselves

funny as

Hahahahaha brilliant. Keyboard warriors.

The ref was terrible, were they watching the same game as me. That was the most biased ref performance for an away team I have seen, Kevin friend join mark Hughes in the bellend dept

They always have been and always will be a smaller club than us. Won naff all and the last few years aside have always had smaller crowds.

Some on here complained how Stoke were a better side than us under Mark Hughes ,i think we've put that one to rest.

No way never, his bubble always bursts after two years , like Steve Bruce's

1st half we looked up for it and played some really good football , should of scored 2 or 3 with chances , 2nd half wasn't as good , Livermore looks a player , what a win that's was . onwards and upwards .

Dawson's going to have to watch his elbows or he'll starts getting refs looking to give him cards for it, especially if he's at CB

Nocky · « **Reply #194 on:** February 04, 2017, 06:31:39 PM »

How good does it feel to beat Stoke? It's up there with beating the Villa for me!

Thought we deserved it today. They looked dangerous and had a lot of the ball but we undoubtedly created the better chances and could have killed the game off.

Rondon led the line superbly and had a good battle with Shawcross throughout. Phillips was dangerous as always and Chadli had some really good moments (including the great assist) albeit he still needs to effect the game more IMO.

Really pleased with how solid Dawson is looking at centre half. Livermore had some really good moments and clearly gives us more legs and energy in the middle of the park. As I said at the time, I think he'll turn out to be a very astute signing.

Onwards and upwards. 'We've got Tony Pulis....'

Get in there. Great first half, resolute second

caravanc58 · « **Reply #196 on:** February 04, 2017, 06:57:38 PM »

shocked we only scored once with the chances we created, nice to see chadli back to his early season form, too many outstanding performances to name a motm. credit to the ref he had a good game. its not a local derby but it felt like one.
coyb.

Loved that, great win, how lost was Berahino, is he still smiling now!

kirk · « **Reply #198 on:** February 04, 2017, 07:03:52 PM »

Great first half , but dodgy second but Hughes subs really helped us, good first full debut for Livermore and Dawson at centre half?
During he game clay heads fighting each other as well !!!

AlbionBest · « **Reply #199 on:** February 04, 2017, 07:17:39 PM »

How enjoyable was that?
Hard fought but deserved win and the fans doing us proud with the welcome !!!!
