Come on Redmen!!
Well we beat that mob last night and there were many strong performances. Rhys and Nat did well for most of the match. All the front six worked hard and pressed the life out of them and Robby and Trent both looked dangerous throughout the match.
So onto West Brom. I put the prom line in the title because when I started going to the match regularly in the early seventies it was one of my favourite chants and used to make me smile. Unfortunately WBA players were on the receiving end of racist chants too but that is another story. I have only been to The Hawthorns once and quite liked it as a quaint ground with a decent standing area behind the goal for the away fans, and we won.
They have nothing to play for but have a couple of dangerous players we need to keep our eye on. We really should be able to beat these.
Our bench was weird yesterday with no Milner, Ox or Keita, I must assume they are all injured. If so, our options to rotate are limited except Sadio is likely to start again as he can use his anger to good effect.
A win by two clear goals is my prediction.
What are you thinking?

Easier to ask who isn’t injured

Bobby captains the reds…. Which is frankly brilliant

0 and we’re underway.

Unleash misery Fat Sam style

TepidT2O · « **Reply #5 on:** May 16, 2021, 04:32:12 pm »

2 we’re passing it around at the back as they chase… not sure that’s going to be a great policy…

TepidT2O · « **Reply #6 on:** May 16, 2021, 04:33:36 pm »

3 50 yard Thiago diagonal causes chaos.

Robbo crosses, it’s blocked and thiago’s shot is blocked for a corner.

Which is put behind for another corner

Which Phillips eventually heads well over.

TepidT2O · « **Reply #7 on:** May 16, 2021, 04:36:13 pm »

4 dangerous back header form TAA but it just about gets back to Becker.

WBA with a good ball between Robbo and Williams but Jones clears well.

Corner to the reds (which we will waste) after a Bobby pass sets salah away down the right

Phillips heads the corner well wide .. could have done better

jillc · « **Reply #8 on:** May 16, 2021, 04:37:10 pm »

Needs to do a bit of work with his attacking headers. But I like we are putting them in early.

TepidT2O · « **Reply #9 on:** May 16, 2021, 04:37:32 pm »

7 long throw to WBA. Cleared but dangerous none the less

Phillips already has a bloody lip. This is fat bastard Allardyce football.

TepidT2O · « **Reply #10 on:** May 16, 2021, 04:39:15 pm »

9 nice bit of passing football by the reds. Salah crosses for the right, but it’s closer to the keeper than Mane.

BobPaisley3 · « **Reply #11 on:** May 16, 2021, 04:41:37 pm »

Shocking refereeing in the build up to that free kick, never a foul.

TepidT2O · « **Reply #12 on:** May 16, 2021, 04:41:45 pm »

11 free kick to WBA on the far touch line. Looked fine to me…

Pumped into the area and headed wide.

But given offside ….

TepidT2O · « **Reply #13 on:** May 16, 2021, 04:43:47 pm »

13 WBA will be happiest with their start.

Looked bright and dangerous. We’ve not done too much.

TepidT2O · « **Reply #14 on:** May 16, 2021, 04:45:54 pm »

14 1-0. We lose the ball in midfield.

It’s played to Robson Kanu who runs through to score. Moles of space

They’ve probably deserved that

Fucks sake

TepidT2O · « **Reply #16 on:** May 16, 2021, 04:46:40 pm »

Over to Jill to end my curse.

jillc · « **Reply #17 on:** May 16, 2021, 04:48:16 pm »

17 A good run from Trent ends with the ball going through to the goalie.

jillc · « **Reply #18 on:** May 16, 2021, 04:50:32 pm »

19 Every time a WBA players goes down its a free kick and screws up our momentum.

TepidT2O · « **Reply #19 on:** May 16, 2021, 04:51:27 pm »

Cant claim that WBA have parked the bus today. They’ve played football.

jillc · « **Reply #20 on:** May 16, 2021, 04:52:22 pm »

20 We really haven't created anything, its hustle and bustle loads of WBA players back and getting challenges in early.

jillc · « **Reply #21 on:** May 16, 2021, 04:53:30 pm »

22 It really isn't clicking in the final third too many of our final balls are going out or we aren't releasing the ball early enough.

TepidT2O · « **Reply #22 on:** May 16, 2021, 04:54:47 pm »

Grrrrr……

jillc · « **Reply #23 on:** May 16, 2021, 04:54:59 pm »

24 That should be 1-1 but Mane puts it wide. But that is our best move which was created by Thiago.

If he’d left that for Jones behind him had an easier finish… had to go for it though

jillc · « **Reply #25 on:** May 16, 2021, 04:56:37 pm »

25 A free kick after a foul on Mane in a promising place, which ends with Bobby falling over Sadio.

TepidT2O · « **Reply #26 on:** May 16, 2021, 04:57:27 pm »

Grrrrrrr.

26 The shot from Trent hits the wall and we get a corner. The corner is initially cleared we regain possession but Salah's shot goes wide.

What a ball by Trent to play Salah in there… 40 yards from the left back position…

We’re playing much better… need to score though

jillc · « **Reply #29 on:** May 16, 2021, 04:59:38 pm »

28 We come again. But Thiago's ball in doesn't quite reach a red shirt. Thiago is central to everything at the moment.

jillc · « **Reply #30 on:** May 16, 2021, 05:01:15 pm »

30 A long throw by Trent, is just about cleared by their defender.

Over to PB3. Bring us a goal for the Reds.

BobPaisley3 · « **Reply #31 on:** May 16, 2021, 05:01:49 pm »

32 Decent approach play ends with Trent blasting high and wide from the edge of the box.

BobPaisley3 · « **Reply #32 on:** May 16, 2021, 05:02:40 pm »

1-1 Mo, smasher from the edge of the box

jillc · « **Reply #33 on:** May 16, 2021, 05:03:35 pm »

He's done it again, PB3.

So Mo is back level with Kane, for the golden boot. Good assist by Sadio there.

Rush 82 · « **Reply #34 on:** May 16, 2021, 05:03:50 pm »

Yes!

Oh look - Mane passed to Salah!

TepidT2O · « **Reply #35 on:** May 16, 2021, 05:03:52 pm »

Mane robbed them and Mo smashed home form the edge of the box..

Beautiful

BobPaisley3 · « **Reply #36 on:** May 16, 2021, 05:04:08 pm »

33 Interesting build up to the goal. Mike Dean blocked a Reds move and had to call play back. From the free kick it ends up with Mo and it’s in.

TepidT2O · « **Reply #37 on:** May 16, 2021, 05:04:39 pm »

No no no no ..how?

BobPaisley3 · « **Reply #38 on:** May 16, 2021, 05:05:19 pm »

35 We should be ahead. Bobby with just the keeper to beat hits the bar, has to score. We’re carving out chances now.

Rush 82 · « **Reply #39 on:** May 16, 2021, 05:05:23 pm »

Oh my lord - Bobby should have scored there

Urghh!!
