v WBA (a) - Valentine’s Day 💙🤍

[Mercer]

Would be no surprise to me if Rothwell out of the starting 11.

[BigBar]

Not sure I'm mentally stable enough to take another lacklustre display and a defeat. Yes we have overachieved this season but you cannot go from top of the form table and second in the table to struggling to see where the next win comes from and looking fragile all over the pitch. Time to stand up and be counted lads.

Whatever the question Dolan isn't the answer in a starting line up

The missus got me this card - it’s funny but a bit close to the bone really 😂😂😂

My missus will have to suffice with a takeaway - should arrive at half time.  Only concession is she gets to choose the wine - we'll get through a couple of bottles and a bonus third should we win!

Pink Champagne Chez Mellelieu.  Need a win, would take a draw.

If it's the Laurent-Perrier one then you've chosen well!

pleasantly surprised that tony has kept three at the back not so happy that buckley is still in the false nine position with gally and diaz as "wide strikers"

[Exiled in Toronto]

So much for five unforced changes, Rothwell binned and personal issues decimating the first team.

has he kept to three at the back ? There is no left sided wing-back.

I'm not so sure that's what he has done. No LB named. I'm guessing 4-3-3 with Wharton LB. Either that or Buckley is playing LWB.

Mowbray must be going 4-3-3

Has to be injured if he isn't even on the bench.

[neophox]

Giles at left wing

[Exiled in Toronto]

Giles is LWB

[Rogerb]

If we are playing three at the back would prefer to see Van Hecke as the central centre half seems to struggle when playing either side..

Copy paste error - Giles at LWB

[CAPT KAYOS]

just have an uneasy feeling this could be a Valentine massacre for us...

New manager bounce for the boing boing baggies

Its on Sky .. we know what that means

Moboring bigging up the opposition again

hope I'm wrong and the recent lacklustre  performances  were just a blip and not the evidential beginnings of the  all too common  and familiar death spiral

Just copied and pasted it from the club site. They obviously missed Giles off the team sheet 😂

Giles wasn't in the lineup first posted on here. It was 10 men listed and I hadn't noticed as I'm multitasking. I feel more comfortable now.
