[Albion] Highest-ever league position

[kevo]

IF (mighty 'if') we beat Man Utd on Saturday, for a few hours we will have equalled (or possibly even surpassed) our highest position in the league during the course of a season. A one-goal winning margin would put us 6th, previously achieved in 1981.

Yes, I know it's only three games in, so doesn't really count, but...!

Before a ball was even kicked, we were 3rd.

 

[Eeyore]

We were fourth after the win at Watford on the opening day last year, and still after the following draw.

August 17 2019. We were 4th after the West Ham draw. For a couple of hours.

Alright, you've made your point!

I believe we were top when we scored early in the match - until VAR ruled it out a few minutes later

 

[Eeyore]

Alright, you've made your point!

And you wonder why you were nearly RELEGATED.

 

[AlbionInUs]

We were first for a couple of seconds when Leandro Trossard’s goal put us in front of west ham (even thought this goal was disallowed)

And you wonder why you were nearly RELEGATED.

The key word here is NEARLY.

And that’s with equal games which is a huge difference to what you’re suggesting [MENTION=727]Kev[/MENTION]. You’ve had a shocker there mate

Don’t we start the season in 3rd place, alphabetically?

We were, I managed to capture the live table in the split second it was updated to show us top before the goal was ruled out by VAR.

Does the table really count until say 6 matches
