Look doomed now, even if they weren’t before.

And, not that is matters, can’t mathematically catch us anymore.

Pardew impressively proving his footballing credentials once more. :D

He must have turned cartwheels all the way home when he got that eight year contract
at Newcastle. Shoulda stuck with Pulis.

Still hadn't settled into our 4-5-1/4-4-1-1 formation at home.

Probably a bit of both.

I was in the Cricketfield that day and can still hear that 'we've got Kanu' song ringing in my ears.

I was chatting to a couple of Baghies walking back to the train station and they couldn't understand how they won.

No we weren't . Without checking I think we had about 20 shots, Mee missed a virtually open goal from 2 yards, Walters missed a golden opportunity to be an instant hero at the end, and we gifted them a goal with shocking defending from a long ball.
Also ....... WBA were top of the League!! (6 points out of 6 and no goals conceded!!) - they must have been looking forward to a good season under Pulis.
They've only picked up 14 since.

Better team today for large parts apparently.

Won’t be an easy game at the Hawthorns.

Never is for us anyway. No matter how bad they are.

We were bad for the goal . You said it yourself. Mix up between Ward and Mee and then Trakowski should have drifted Kanu - as he would have done now. We didn't score after having most of the play. Therefore you could say we were sh!te. Actually coming after the win at Chelsea it was a big let down

(Of course it was a big let down after Chelsea, that goes without saying).

We should’ve lost the Palace game, they had loads of chances.

Yep, and we were -arguably - worse against Hudds, (one of the most tedious games I've ever seen), and Leeds Utd, who also outplayed us for the most part.

Jay Rod looking good again and has scored nine goals this season in a rubbish team. Will he be looking for a move to a Premier League club when they go down ;)

He will be looking to move to a club willing to pay his wages which were apparently £60-70k at Southampton, so can't imagine them being much less at WBA.

Like Sheff weds fans didnt wat Carvahall. Plenty of teams didnt want Allardyce. Stoke fans didnt want Pulis. Saints fans didnt want Puel.

Thankfully we almost all want Dyche.

Don’t get this obsession with Rodriguez.

He’s on at least 60k a week and he’s badly injury prone.

Foster is a shocking goalkeeper. One excellent game to every five really poor ones.

Taking aside his clarets history, I’d take J Rod at Burnley next season. Looks to be over his injury set back. A very very good footballer.

Well I’m not that bothered about Jay Rod to be honest. But it’s obvious why he gets mentioned more than any other ex-claret.

Doesn`t that mean he is unlikely to get injured ie he is bad at getting injured?

Accuracy wasn’t there. We definitely dominated though.
