Baldock the problem!!
FFS.... If you have to look for problems this season, where have you been when we did have them?
IMO, this season everybody has pulled their weight, not least Baldock.

If they do I'd be worried

strong and stable with me, or...
Gets on my tits we play really well, but we have to have negative titled bullshit threads at the top of our board when we are playing well and unbeaten rather than you just commenting on your Baldock thoughts on the player ratings thread.....but oh no, of course everyone needs to hear your take on Baldock don't they, what would we do if it wasnt for the Baldock and Greer threads, heaven forbid someone start a positive thread....oh look there's one for March! Thank goodness.

Beg to differ. I never had a bad word to say about Barnes.
With Baldock however, I never got it when we signed him, and still don't. Would love to be proved wrong though.

but I started the thread saying he was playing well so not really getting on his back , just stating facts . Do u not think the manger over the next two weeks will be thinking of ways to improve things and get back to winning ways or will he just think lets be grateful for being top.

Baldock is a good footballer who doesn't really do anything, other than run around a lot and have a good touch.
Barnes isn't quite so good, but he has the knack of being involved when it mattered, he had a far better football brain and he's not as bad technically as people thought.
Hemed's goal record is ok, nothing special, but it's ok. Baldock's is rubbish and his industry doesn't make up for his lack of finishing, not for me. It's a bit of a difference this season's grumbling to last seasons! Baldock scoring as consistently this season as last though to be fair to him.

Look at the thread title!?
He's not a problem, no one is at the moment as it happens. Can we improve the team - yeah of course, but not until January. So Hughton will be working to get the best out of him, I doubt very much he's thinking he's a problem.

Absolutely right
I would like to see 50% of good chances put away, ideally. Baldock falls short. 50% may be a bit high though, perhaps 50% on target and Baldock may be getting close
One good thing for this season and especially this afternoon was getting a high % of shots/chances from inside the penalty area. This is a good trend and Baldock plays a part in this.

Point of order. I'm sure it's in the rules somewhere - or should be - even if I can't find exactly where it is. I'm sure it goes something like, unless we're lower than fifth place in whatever league we're in, we're not entitled to have a scapegoat - so let's ditch this poxy thread now.
The team's doing alright. All of them.

I thought this as well. At 66 minutes who to take off as every player was playing well? Then Hemed had a header that went nearer the corner flag. Bobby Z was a rather predictable like for like substitution. A real genius manager might have come up with Plan B. (And might be crucified if it went wrong!)
The scenario is going to happen again! It was exactly the same last season against Cardiff.
Maybe special properations will be reserved for play-off games?

You clearly ARE worried already, or why else this thread ? We should all savour the moment, not look for obscure reasons that we aren't perfection.

Baldock is a very good league 1 striker and a very average championship one. Could have had 6 goals yesterday and drew a blank. Good honest player but that's all. If 2 points costs us promotion come May look no further than yesterday. 4-1 would not have flattered us yesterday, we still need a top end championship striker.
It shows how good the Albion have been this season, it's taken till October for you to post!!

So not the missed penalty against wolves then? Or the game against Bolton where we were two up then conceded just before half time, then again in the 95th minute? Or any of the other games this season where we'll drop points?

Couldn't disagree more, he is anonymous, at times disinterested and is not scoring goals or dragging anyone anywhere. We played with ten men yesterday, massive disappointment.
