Now that WBA have successfully negotiated their way through two replays (Bristol City, Peterborough United) to set up yet another meeting with the mighty RFC, Brian can finally start drawing up his plans for a possible giant killing. While the game is winnable (presuming a proper team and attitude turns up rather than the dreadfully disjointed rubbish we get in the league) it won't be easy but at least it's game where the players shouldn't need to be "wound up" as if they can't get themselves together for a PL team they may as well all give up the game now (what's that voice at the back there "you thought they all ready had"?). Yes…

I remember going to WBA v Reading once where nice Reading fans got fellow Reading fans thrown out of the Hawthorns. :lol: *Also happened at a Sunderland away game where some Reading fans thought there were a couple of Sunderland fans in the away end. Only he was a bloke who lives in Sunderland who likes Reading fc. :lol:

I was wearing my lad's beanie hat and, after the match, a coach load of Baggies started giving me the 'v' signs and shouting obscenities. I'm thinking what's that all about, given that I wasn't even being lairy towards our Midlands brethren. And then I suddenly reminded myself that my lad follows Villa, and said beanie was displaying that fact a treat :lol:

Didn't Jobi get sent off after a game at the Hawthorns once because he had a go at a steward who was stopping him getting over to our fans to celebrate ?
