Been an Albion fan for 60 years. Seen it all before, felt the pain before. Its the hope that kills you.
Its all in our hands, just have to dig deep now.
Strange how the last two seasons have seen fantastic runs in the last quarter of the season in this league.
We have the skill, ability and brains to stumble over line, but being football and being The Albion I am shitting myself.

Good chance we could have 90 points and be promoted by the end of the season.
I don't think thats a big probability cunningham. Personally I dont think we'll lose any more games.

Correct. He is young and may improve but at the moment he gambols around, is slack on the ball, rarely puts a tackle in of any worth, does little creatively and when required to do the basics doesn't deliver.
To bring him on at that stage of a vital game was wrong and he needs a spell on loan somewhere to wake him up.
He is nowhere near 'Big game' which at the point he was brought on it was, standard let alone the Prem.

Spot on.
The subs were made too early, at a time when we’re totally in control.
Any other part of the season, we'd write this off as one of those days - a point away, fair enough. We were well on top, just couldn't put them away. 99% of the time Slav's subs are great so I'm trying not to panic as I hyperventilate into this paper bag...

Played well last few games.
First setback in a while and the boo boys are back.
It's tiring. No wonder young players fail here and want away if any good.
Exactly forget that Blackburn made four subs to change the game, forget that we missed guilt edged chance by more popular players just blame Harper.
Harper wasn’t alone , sawyers didn’t exactly cover himself in glory either . We just lacked professionalism in last 20 mins .
It's easy in hindsight but surely Brunt with his experience would be a better bet than Harper who is a complete headless chicken.

Subs were needed. We were getting leggy at 65 mins.

You're not allowed to be shitting yourself Lima.
Some wet behind the ears know it all will be along in a minute and say 'they're Not Barcelona' in a 6 year old girls voice!
Apparently 85 points would 'Guarantee' us promotion!
