Have we ever won a game in April?
I'm sorry, but my negativity has run riot

Yeah, seem to recall us playing Eight (8) and winning Eight (8) back in April 2011, think it is still our record April points accumulation to this day ! Though may be wrong about the date etc. memory is not what it was !!!

Just checked and sorry it was March 2011 !

The games that stopped Southampton keeping up, or is that a different season?

I think that may be the season that @golddene is referring to though?

The games that stopped Southampton keeping up were in March 2011.

The games mentioned by @Peacehaven Wild Kids were in April 1988 on our way to finishing second behind Sunderland.

Three points would be a wonderful present on my birthday weekend.

And on the weekend of my daughter’s birth - Albion fan in the making of course

Though maybe I’ve used up all our luck already

Either way, congrats!

Congratulations! April kids are the best, in my entirely unbiased opinion.

Due a win and a clean sheet. Let’s have one today please.

Joao Pedro starting on the left of the attack then - they did train like that for a large part on Tuesday so no surprise. I quite like him coming from deeper so fingers crossed it works.

Wieffer next to Baleba? Would prefer Ayari or Gomez. O'Riley on the left.....hmm....guess Mitoma will be coming on at half time.

I like Joao Pedro out on the left.

My guess is actually Hinsh in midfield and Wieffer at RB.

I'd like to see Hinsh in midfield, for sure. Just hope Wieffer doesn't keep under-hitting passes in critical areas.

Who knows? However a different formation than usual

Mr Mainwaring assistant VAR. Don't panic.

Brentford fans saying their strongest starting line-up and best bench all season

I actually meant premier league era, as it seems a more recent phenomena

 

[The Fits]

Look out for their number 33. A RB we were supposedly in for that FM has down as potentially one of the very best.

 

[US Seagull]

Actually in the UK today. Arrived a couple hours ago.

Which, ironically, makes it less likely I'll be able to watch the game.
