A few things to smile about today

[Buzzer]

The GOSBTS incident after half time was a ******* disgrace.

Blimey. Over-reaction much?

 

[clarkey]

Mentioned elsewhere but a goalkeeper running length of pitch to celebrate a 47th minute goal is fantastic

 

[Steve in Japan]

That PL arch must be a reject from Ikea. Like me putting up a flatpack wardrobe.

This !! Had a chuckle about it, who cares.

No. You can mess up some things, but not that. I made a point of being back in my seat for the start of the second half, because there's some 'well hard lads' to my right in the WSU who always sing it at the start of the second half and I have to say GOSBTS is not something that can or should be allowed to be cocked up. I looked at the West Midlanders afterwards and I felt shame.......................

Ah. It's a wind-up. Fair enough, you got me.

 

[Mackenzie]

Oh...another one. The showboating with the step-overs. Which player was that?

Knockaert. That was taking the piss.

We played really well today for about 70 minutes.

I'm not winding you up. Seriously, we were outraged, for all of 20 seconds. It shouldn't happen.

That PL arch must be a reject from Ikea. Like me putting up a flatpack wardrobe.

The words "tin" and "pot" spring to mind. All those squillions sloshing around in the top tier of football and they have something that looks as though it was knocked up out of bits found in their grandad's shed. And then they make some poor chaps carry it right across the pitch whilst getting sprayed with water.

 

[tinycowboy]

Knockaert. That was taking the piss.

Bit unfortunate that we gave the ball away within about 5 seconds of this happening. Today, I most loved the players celebrating the second goal a few yards in front of me. Interested to see whether I make it onto Match of the Day this evening.....

The moaning West Brom fan getting berated by Robbie Savage on 606 as I drove back after our Premier League win.

We were good today though. We can stay in this division if we do that again. We wunt be druv.

 

[Buzzer]

And watching highlights of Hemed's celebrations. Bloody hell, that goal meant an awful lot to him and he thoroughly deserved it. Really pleased for him.

Still outdone by Ryan sprinting all the way to the NE Corner after the second [emoji23][emoji23]

We might be missing a trick here. With a few tweaks, the Arch Erection could be part of the pre-match entertainment.

Same set of 4 blokes that sit to my left (and have done for the past 3 seasons) always leave for the bar on about 43 minutes and return on about 50. Always found it a pain as I have to move to let them out into the aisle, but very much a matter for them what they choose to do, but in addition to cheering the goals, I did have a little selfish petulant smile to myself that they missed 2 goals. A spot of Karma for having to get up and down blocking view for those behind

 

[Bigtomfu]

I remembered another. That saving tackle in the North East corner by Dunk (?) Loved it.

Go go gadget leg.

And yet another...the attendance being read out and no away fans attendance for people to clap.

Left my nemesis (old bloke, two rows in front of me in the WSU who never cheers, barely musters a clap when we score, regularly failing to get out of his seat when we do, ticks names off his program and can often be found reading said program throughout the games) considerably disgruntled, audibly asking all those around him why they hadn't announced the away fan numbers as bizarrely this is the only thing that never fails to get him off his seat and applauding whenever it used to be read out.

Back on topic I particularly enjoyed us schooling a largely anti football team and in particular getting one back on Pulis for the 3-0 cup drubbing at Stoke when playing under Gus.

Ah yes. The cup game with Sexy Pete in goal. I was at that one too.
