[NWC 245]

we waste a lot of corners as a team - not a moan, just an observation!!great play from Redmond again - when he finds his shooting boots, he''ll be awesome!!

tbf i dont mind if he stands still all game as long he takes his chances when they arrive

[Mr Angry 1,571]

WBA getting frustrated, not doing well, I can see us getting another before halftime.

[Surfer 1,547]

Was Brunt a bit lucky to get away with a yellow for tha?

[Syteanric 1]

Redmond is a fantastic player but his decision making needs a lot of work! I''d hate to stand behind him the line at the chippy!

[Mr Angry 1,571]

Especially if Redmond passes instead of shooting!

[Rudolph Hucker 0]

But seriously, old salamander up front against Liverpool was playing musical statues. A striker up front needs to move the defence around off the ball, that''s what I was asking.

i think you would call it harsh for a red, but there was no intention to play the ball whatsoever and clattenburg being the @rse he is it wouldnt have been a surprise

Jesus Christ....GET IT OUT.

Bassong nearly gives me a heart attack about 5 times a game.

[Mr Angry 1,571]

Almost got caught twice there, sometimes you just need to clear it rather than being clever.

Giving too many corners away

[yoda 0]

I like Redmond but sometimes he reminds me of Louis Donowa the older posters will know what i mean .

[iron_stan 0]

olsson not having the greatest game

[Tetteys Jig 830]

Any game you are going to have to gamble and leave yourself open but far better to make it a two player game and give them something to think about. Hopefully we can hold this and keep pushing for a second. The more WBA have to push, the more of a chance we''ll have on the break.

[NWC 245]

were finishing strong!!

[ReadingCanary 0]

We are an absolute joy to watch when we play like thisFair Play HughtonSome very good positional swapping going on

[ricardo 7,400]

And boo''s ring out at the Hawthorns, music to my ears.

[ricardo 7,400]

The difference is not conceding early. It makes it a completely different game.

[Rudolph Hucker 0]

When we score first it plays to Hughton''s game plan, no problem.

When we concede first and the plan has to change Hughton usually fails to manage change or even hold the fort, stop things getting worse, or consolidate.

He can carry on with plan A second half thank goodness.

[Brightside 0]

Great first half. Cracking goal and some nice football being played. Keep it up and I''m sure we can get a second. Just hope we don''t fall apart in the second half like we have been known to.

[NWC 245]

Just been looking at the first half stats on my screen - it says we have only had 1 corner. I swear weve had 2. 1 we wasted by not clearing the first man, and the second one we played short.Just a small point I know, but if the stats can''t be relied on, what''s the point in having them.On to the game - decent half by city - baggies dont look up to much so far. Hopefully we can keep them in this mood for H2.

[City 2nd 191]

Probably the best first half fir some time, just shows how a little attacking intent can change matters - positive as a 4-4-2 and look quite comfortable but sat a bit deep after the goal - looking stronger with Whits in for Martin.

Keep it going city we need these points today.

this game is far from over
