Without wanting to sound unsympathetic... It's a bit cringeworthy.

Meanwhile back at the Villa,

Lambert tries to make explaining the game a little easier

Just think what the Baggies could have done with the Golden Teat`s money. RIP Jack. DD

Makes it so much more special that we have achieved our prem league status with no backing like Villa,Blues & Wolves have.
Sir Gary Megson and yes Mr Peace take a bow.
But every manager since Meggo has also played their part.
Just goes to show it can be done but gets harder and harder when clubs like Hull, Leicester, Cardiff etc who are our rivals at the wrong end of the table have splashed cash.
To be on about the same level as a club like Sunderland shows that it's not as bad as it sometimes feels.
Now with TP at the helm we can get the bloody players putting the graft in to make sure we stay in this division eh ?
Nervous about tonight's game but the Hull win has taken a little bit of pressure off.

It does put matters in perspective when you look at the teams below rather than above us. Clubs that have invested massively but ultimately imprudently with maverick management. We are probably within 5 or 6 places either way of where we should be. Win tonight though and I'll be dreaming of top 6 again as I always do

[Luke_East_Baggie]

A win would be massive. Huge. I see a dream best personally..

I know Everton haven't been great, but mirallas, lukaku, baines etc posses real match winners who do it consistently
. I'd take a point!

Really difficult to call.
Both managers will've been stressing the importance of this game to their teams - and I think it IS the proverbial '6-pointer' - the winners will be very pleased with themselves and thinking they can now kick on, but the losers will really be looking anxiously over their shoulders.
I've really got high hopes of TP, and IMO we'll be really up for it tonight, attitude-wise. I can see the longer it goes on the more nervous Everton will get (as they will really see the need to win this); hopefully the crowd will start heaping more pressure on.......

...got a strange feeling we'll win

[betterthanbaird]

I'm weirdly confident too, we've got this.

[HarryJAllstarWBA]

Albion: Foster, Wisdom, McAuley, Lescott, Baird, Gardner, Brunt, Yacob, Morrison, Anichebe, Berahino.
Subs: Myhill, Pocognoli, Dawson, Dorrans, Sessegnon, Samaras, Ideye.

[betterthanbaird]

Probably will lack creativity at times but solid enough, our bench looks better than Everton's too. No Varela on the bench again I've accepted that we won't see much of him now.
