Having been jobbed out of two points against Charlton a few weeks ago with an even bigger non-penalty in stoppage time, from an Albion perspective it's not hard to view it as the decisions evening themselves out. Obviously no consolation to PNE, who shut us out more effectively than any other team since Leeds, and deserved better for it.

Can someone confirm this:-
I'm sure I read/heard a few years ago that Albion's all-time record wins-on-the-trot is 5.
Jinx for Sunday's game?

No, our all-time record is 11 consecutive wins from April to August 1930.

It looked like a pen to me so understand why the ref gave it us. I would be disappointed BUT they should have been reduced to 10 men after that studs up tackle on Perriera.
So I think we’d have done them fair and square had he been sent off.
Swings and roundabouts as we’ve had them given against us in the past.
Boing Boing

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.
I am totally bemused as to why dirty Leeds would be complaining. PNE's loss helps make Leeds 2nd position more secure?
I must be missing something

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.
Glad you and your son had a good evening, BB! Sorry we couldn't have had two representatives from the Scottish Borders but I'm sure you did us proud

Thanks, Ska'd. (Don't know where I got the 5 from.)

I think five on the bounce is actually our record run of draws, though not sure without checking.

Cheers Baggie Steve. Enjoyed the experience although after watching the Bristol City game, I was hoping for a similar performance. Suppose we need to give PNE some credit there and the 3pts are the important thing if you haven’t been at your best.
