Wigan & Swansea will be fine. Great coaches, established PL standard squads, and can beat most teams home or away on their day.
S'ton and Reading will be bottom 4. McDermott has an easy manner & the players seem to enjoy working with him ... which gives them a chance.
Will be 6th tonight when they win same points as Spurs.

the 2nd goal took them above Spurs on GD.5th even, wow, impressive stuff.
Is he? He has added Claudio Yacob and Romelu Lukaku to the team which finished 10th last season under the future England manager. West Brom was a club needing stability and organisation, Clarke was the perfect choice as head coach and I have a lot of time for them as a club. Well set up behind the scenes, shrewd investment in the squad and a good solid fanbase.
We'll be in that position before too much longer if we stick with Gustavo.
Lot of misery on Saintsweb at the moment.
One poster suggested that Adkins told the players at half time they had 45 minutes to save his job, however they've barely raised their game this half, hardly a vote of confidence. Looks tactically naive to say the least, especially with such a leaky defence.
Strangely, I think Adkins is safe, too much goodwill from the last 2 seasons. If he is still there by January 31 st it will either mean there has been a massive turn around or the stains board are willing to stick with him, take the parachute payments, and try again.
Even though it is Stains, this is a wake up call for those on here who want promotion this season. It's bloody tough in the Premiership
I hate West Brom it stems back to dodging a hail of bottles in the 80's trying to get to their shite ground, and then to cap the day off Dean Saunders missed a absolute sitter not one of the best away days.I have a lot of time for them as a club.
if as I think you are suggesting he is merely ticking along Roy's work I think that is not giving him enough credit. Last seasons finish means nothing other than he inherited the basis of a sound squad.
Clarke has always been widely regarded as an excellent coach and with the pressure and raised eyebrows when he took the hotseat it's hard not to be impressed with what he is achieving so far this season
