RE: WBA vs Reading - Match Thread - talkSAFT - 07-10-2018
Just got back.
I've watched the Albion for 60 years, but wondered why I ever bothered, in the 1st half - I can't remember the old 90s team looking so poor, and I nearly left the Ground at 1/2 time. Livermore, Mears, and Dawson were a disgrace.
Unbelievable 2nd half, though - after the substitutions - and I left the Ground a very happy old man. Edwards looks very promising, not to mention the 2 on loan.
Leave Brunty alone, as well. He was just what we missed 1st half, and I'd have him on a bad day instead of Liversalts.

Big Dave’s stubbornness is at least producing attacking football and average goals per game of 2.6 after 12 games, compared with Pulis’s stubbornness which produced formaldehyde football and dreams of a goal once in a blue moon.
On a serious note, various commentators have latched onto the inflexibility of sticking to a back three home and away.

We need to sort out this defence and get a plan b and a plan c ......... I think promotion will be beyond us unless things change / improve.
Come on you Baggies!
What a difference 45 minutes make!
