WBA vs Bristol City - Match Thread - Ska'dForLife-WBA - 21-10-2021

The last couple of matches have certainly been food for thought, to the extent that thinking is possible while nodding off. The fast-paced excitement of the season's early weeks has diminished by degrees, and while Albion are still capable of mounting quick attacks here and there, too often we're guilty of getting bogged down in midfield, sending passes astray, and ultimately inviting the opposition to gather momentum of their own.
The good news is that while Bournemouth extend their lead at the top of the table there's much of a muchness to the chasing pack at the moment, and Albion are therefore still well in the promotion race. But on paper, three points against Bristol City this Saturday is a must if we're to keep the pace up during a difficult phase of the campaign.

RE: WBA vs Bristol City - Match Thread - BaggieSteve - 21-10-2021
4 the one and only Bobby Gould
2, It's Brunty
8 David Cross - he was unlucky; as I recall, he was doing well for us, got injured, replaced by some bloke called Regis...and that was that
3 Bart Looby - not many know about him but he was a tricky winger...slippery!
RE: WBA vs Bristol City - Match Thread - Minizin - 21-10-2021
Is there a Cyril Williams?
RE: WBA vs Bristol City - Match Thread - Dingle-Dingle - 22-10-2021
Thought no 3 was Burger Tongs, sorry, barby tool.
5 Peter Barnes
9 Lee Hughes..... Wasted talent.
10 Robert Koren.

I have to confess that in a moment of supreme absent-mindedness, for number 11 I anagrammed a cricketer with the same surname as the former Albion player. The correct anagram is now up.
