'Tis the season to stare at the fixture list and wonder what happened to all the Saturday matches, as Albion round off November and enter December with the second and third in a lengthy succession of non-weekend kick-offs. Wednesday night takes us across the border to get reacquainted with co-relegates Swansea, who remain inconsistent in form and would doubtless welcome a win to get their race for the playoffs back on course. Given our continuing iffiness on the road and the host of inglorious drubbings we've suffered in South Wales through the years, a point would be welcome from this.
Then next Monday, we welcome Brentford to the Hawthorns for the first time since August 2003, and we have to be looking for a home win under the lights against a side in a slump since the departure of Dean Smith. A haul of four points from these two would leave us in a very encouraging position going into next Friday, and the biggest game of 2018...

How refreshing! Not many modest people in the football industry. (He's right, though!)

Yeah a right team that was saft, wasn't he in the same side as Paul Williams,Fabian DE Freitas,Mickey Evans, Brian Quaily .......
The mind boggles ........
Although Lee Hughes and a certain Enzo Maresca were not to bad, although Enzo soon got on his bike to Juventus

Well, knowing us we'll unexpectedly trounce Swansea then stumble and fail miserably against Brentford.
Must be boring supporting Man City and the like

Just looked up the late 90s team: Graham Potter deputised for Jason Van Blerk!!!
JVB must have been one of our worst ever players (hope he's not reading this). I really thought we'd never get back to the top Division back then.
.....just shows.....

I'm amazed he is still keeping Gayle on the Bench
He's better than HRK & JR that's no disrespect to them,
But who would you prefer a half chance to fall to in the box?
