Very bold use of 'only' there. Three of our most crucial players in that list.

When is Núñez expected back? He's the key to Hoffball imho

Oh yeah I know, but having Barnes, Onel and Gibbs back certainly gives our squad a bit more depth. I think Hoff said he was hopeful that Nacho would be back for Luton, and Kenny will back from suspension, so after WBA it should hopefully be full steam ahead.

Is McLeans ban over yet? Onel Is also back given he played a full 90 and scored for the Cubans a few days back

How can you be a fan but know so little of the goings on in team availability? I live far away but I still know the ins and outs of what is happening. No, his fourth and last game suspended

He is. Not that donkey McLean. The turning circle of an oil tanker and under the misapprehension that pointing rather than passes wins matches. We will not win another game this season without Nunez in the starting eleven.

For once, I can't figure out if you are being sarcastic or not? 😉

Quite. Sorensen and Slimane hardly fill me with confidence. WBA won't give Sainz an inch so we need other options and with Sarge out that's easier said than done. I wonder if Stacey might get a run out just to try something a bit different on the right and get us up the pitch.

I can’t make my mind up about Slimane, he blows hot and cold (ooeerr missus etc.). He shows real presence in some games, nice pieces of skill and some key tackles, but then disappears for long periods.

Not a particularly happy hunting ground recently for us - am travelling more in hope than expectation.

In 3 seasons has Kenny missed about 18 games ? And have we won any of those games ?

Well today's the day. Feels like it's been a year since we last saw us play

Doesn't it just! Thankfully there's not another break for 4 months.

Quick look on the WBA forum and the Baggies fans don't seem very enthusiastic. They're in the playoff places at the moment, can't be that bad can it!

They've only let in one goal at home all season and they're being negative?

I think they are fed up of drawing too many games.

Meeting my WBA matte at New St in half an hour, the draw kings, how I’d take that today! Always mentally stronger than us, a mature outlook, not so good for them off the pitch, financially.

West Brom memories

Kevin Keelan broke the Norwich City appearance record at the Hawthorns 

Cyril Regis scoring an unbelievable FA Cup goal against us

A bizarre trip on a double decker bus during which we set a mooning record on the M6

Playing a keeper so young in a cup tie that Paul Lambert told him to try and grow a beard in the week leading up to the game.

4 managers in succession have picked him when he's fit but there are still people posting on this forum who think they know better. They don't.

Makes you wonder what Chrisene's doing in training. Is that Fisher at left-back this time? I suppose with Gordon, Hernandez and Fassnacht we've got a surfeit of spare wingers.

No. Doyle and Duffy as centre backs, Fisher and Stacey at full back.

A little disappointed we have used a naturally left footed player at LWB but we will see as the game goes on.
