Crystal Palace vs WBA - Match Thread

Reminds me a lot of the Leicester win earlier in the season. The only difference is that
we actually scored our own goals this time.

Wasn't pretty, didn't play well, didn't pass well or have enough bodies getting forward. We
never really look like we're going to score from open play.

But we managed to hang on in there and grind something out. Gardner doesn't have much
more than a great shot, but it was good to finally see him hit one like that in a Baggies
shirt.

This should be enough to guarantee safety and a rebuild for Premier League football next
season (fingers crossed).

Absolute smash 'n' grab. But I'll take it. Should be safe now.

Dunno how you can make sensible, well observed analysis - I'm jumping round the room
(and sorry I ever doubted you Drewks)

I'm off to the pub - have a great night Baggies!!!

Well done the lads.
Special well done to all our travelling fans.

I honestly believe we are safe now, just feel so much relief !!!!
Typical Albion lose to bottom 2 teams then go and win at form team Palace.
He is not the messiah he is a very naughty boy....
On a serious note after 2 weeks of pantomime defending sounds like a really good clean sheet so full credit to the boys.
Crack open a beer boys we deserve it !

How's the weather there in 1992? Laugh

Solid smash & grab away performance. File under "job done". Still not quite out of the woods with Leicester picking up points again, but we can breathe a little bit easier. Do that again at Newcastle and we'll be staying up without a doubt.

As for sitting back, we did that against Leicester and look what happened. We never looked like nicking a winner when they got back to 2-2.
Palace are a better side than Leicester and they will find a way past us.
But I will make a note you think we can nick a winner. Let us pray.
Where is BaggieVicar when we need him?

Been on holiday, Aries. Got back last night - see the difference?.... Angel

OK, it's not quite that straightforward, but no harm in milking the moment, eh?

I think it’s great that The Albion will play against the top three Chelsea-Arsenal-Man U in their last few games of this season. It means we have influence on the top places right to the end of the season. I don’t see this in a frightening light at all..I just don’t see all 9 points going to the opposition. I would love to have a tenner on us taking at least 3 of those 9 points. Ideally beat Chelski , draw with Utd and loose to Arsenal allowing Arsenal to win the League.
