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.
They Played For Both
Solve the anagrams to find former Albion men who've also turned out for Bristol City:
1. AW, ILL LYRICISM
2. BRITS CHURN
3. BY TOOLBAR

17. SAD BATHROOM
18. ACHIEVE THE WILD
19. UNADVISED BIRD
20. BUN LOTTERY
