Shocking decision.

Mmmmm. Slightly lucky methinks.

We will take the points, but the penalty leaves a sour taste with me.

You know I love my baggies but that was never a penalty.

If t'was given against us I'd be a little disappointed.
But... seen em given before.
Did we deserve the 3 points? 65% possession in any away game is pretty impressive.
I reckon.

It was not a penalty but we have had so many injustices over the years all I can say is “sorry Preston you played well but would have happily taken it if it had happened in your favour”
3pts - move on.

I couldn't see where a goal was going to come from tbh, and full marks to PNE for reducing us to 1/2 doz efforts. Their goalie spoilt his good game by giving the ref 1/2 a chance.......but that was the only way we'd score 2nd half. Fantastic result!
RE: Preston vs WBA - Match Thread - Lord Snooty - 03-12-2019
If only we had some form of video replay that an independent referee could take a look at to get to the correct decision.
Nah! It'd never work. Besides, there was a miniscule touch on the Albion player, so VAR probably would,ve given it anyway.
Ah well, keep it going, Baggies. Keep those dirty Leeds buggers down.

Agreed, not a pen, but in real time and at full speed I was convinced it was.
Ref had a call to make on the spot - no VAR this season - hopefully next though
Hats off to Sam Johnstone as well, that was a worldy
- not the plonker some had him down as not so long ago

Much the better team 1st half. Preston came much more into in 2nd half. West Brom didn’t seem keen to cross the ball in from wide for the first hour.
Harsh way for Preston to lose a point with the ‘penalty’ decision. We could see from the stand it shouldn’t have been awarded.
So much for looking forward to seeing Sawyers, Pereira, Diangana and Ajayi.
Ajayi cautioned although played well. The others disappointing on the night.
Credit must go to SB for bringing on Edwards to win the pen and Austin to score it.
Makes the trip back to Scotland that much better.
