Thread | Most Important Game of the Season, so far.
at 14:46 17 Apr 2024
At 12:30pm next Saturday, Leicester City host West Bromich Albion in a little talked about game, which has been somewhat lost in the conversation around Southampton's games with the other big two, & the general permutations of the run in.
But for me, this is a key game, as a Leicester win boosts their chances by putting them 2 points clear of us, with a better goal difference, as well getting their confidence & form back on track at a crucial time. It means that we would have to go to Hull City and win in order to go back ahead of them, even if they lose at home to Southampton ... which brings me to the WBA side of my point.
For months West Brom have looked nailed on for the playoffs, but now Norwich are only a point behind them & have their next 2 at home, so have every chance to take 5th spot off them. The only other club that could realistically catch West Brom, & deny them a playoff spot, are Hull City, who are 7 points behind but with a game in hand. That could be down to one point by the time we play Hull on our return to football on Saturday week, IF Hull win their game this weekend, plus their game in hand AND West Brom lose to Leicester. That would not be an ideal situation for us, coming back in a must win away game.
A West Brom win/Leicester defeat would be perfect for us, but even the draw would be a great result for us, in more than 1 way. |

Keane 8s a far better footballer than Norwood & if he can stay fit will be a great player for us. The goals will come plus he will create plenty of chances for those getting forward in support. |

Will all media events be through the Facebook widget this season? I had no problem seeing Mick's grumpy interviews, but missing out on this one. Old fellas are people too. |

To be fair to Brenner, I liked the slipped in the question of giving McGoldrick a new contract after Mick said that HE was interested in him. It put MM on the backfoot, which was very telling. |
