West Brom v Forest - Match Thread

I nearly forgot the match thread!

Friday night in Sydney and we are in full on La Nina. A week off drizzle and humidity reminds me of an English summer. Not the good beer garden ones, but the ones with no football and a decision to go on holiday next year.

Anyway, onto the match.

Though it will come to late for West Brom, Tutu is coming back up the M1 and will shortly resume full-training. However, it doesn't ease the Bong conundrum. No Lowe, no Colback. Will we see Drager come in with Spence at LB, will Garner play LWB. However it pans out I expect to see all the pressure down our left-hand side.

* Forest are W4 D2 under Cooper away from home, West Brom are W4 D2 at home.
* West Brom have only won one of their last 5 games, but have taken 14 points from their last six home games.
* Forest have only won one of their last 5 games, but have taken 14 points from their last six home games...this is beginning to feel like deja vu.
* Forest over the last ten are 1.9 PPG and West Brom are 1.4 PPG...this is one of the easiest match threads I have ever written.

This points to a draw..although we have out-scored them recently.

Will we get a penalty? Will the Championship refereeing embarrass English football yet again? As we know, West Brom have a god-given right to be there, whereas we just catch our names on a quickly spinning CL trophy.

It's on Foxtel / Bein here, so I will be up for this one. Even if I hadn't set my alarm, my cat (Brian) would wake me up.

Prediction....1-1. Although heart say 1-0 to Forest based on the size of Yatesys balls.

This is what the BBC has to say so far:

West Brom are third in Championship
Nottingham Forest are winless in last three league games

3 is indeed the magic number, you hapless hack you.

COYR!!!!!!
