WBA Easter Thread - Ska'dForLife-WBA - 18-04-2019

If only we could discuss poaching the manager of every team we play against between now and season's end, we could repeat our comfortable victory over Preston time and again. Sadly, it's unlikely to be that easy as we head into the traditional Championship Easter double-header with Hull at home on Good Friday, and a trip to Reading on Easter Monday.
Irrespective of other results, two wins would mathematically seal our place in the playoffs, but the points aren't likely to come easy. Hull still have an outside chance of making the post-season party themselves, and will be looking for a scalp on Friday afternoon; Reading are battling relegation, with an equal need and desire for points, and the added comfort of knowing that we've never beaten them at the Madejski Stadium. There's never been a better time to put that miserable record to bed: in the absence of a new manager, the very least we need is momentum in these coming weeks.

Good post - momentum is the key. History tells us we only have a 20% chance of promotion. So wins and confidence boosters are essential atm.

Been on me ‘ols.
What’s happened to JRod?
RE: WBA Easter Thread - Beefy 1965 - 19-04-2019
Hegazi throws tantrum and push he's Shan aside as he is subed after 16 mins???
Great more upheaval just what we need not sure what's happened
Mattwilson@expressandstar
Ahmed Hegazi has just been taken off for Tosin Adarabioyo. It must be an injury precaution, but he's not happy about it, and he shrugs off James Shan as he heads off the pitch.

....rested for Monday's game.
Hegazi also rested = after 20 minutes! Injury precaution by the sounds of it.
RE: WBA Easter Thread - Beefy 1965 - 19-04-2019
1-0 Gibbs
RE: WBA Easter Thread - BaggieMan - 19-04-2019
Nice one Gibbo!
Good volley.
1-1. Crap goalkeeping by Johnsone. Only half a metre to his right.
He’s cost us quite a lot of points this season.
Johnstone Out!
RE: WBA Easter Thread - talkSAFT - 19-04-2019
1-2 Johnstone nightmare again! (Is he still on Villa's payroll?)
2-2. That man Gayle again!
RE: WBA Easter Thread - BaggieMan - 19-04-2019
Whatever happens promotion-wise this season we need a new keeper!
Johnstone just isn’t good enough.
