Nice and early I see NT ;-)

Looking at our previous stats and current form then I'd say this should be a win to us but I always seem to have bad memories of Brom away. My head says fairly comfortable 3-0 win but my heart says this could be a banana skin.

Come On City!!!

I'm nervous about today. Snow won't help us one bit, and I have a feeling Lescott will play out of his skin.

I'm expecting Lescott to struggle today IF City keep their act together like vs Palace. Even if he does play a blinder, the blokes around him have looked pretty disasterous from what I've seen, & the manager appears to be out of his depth.

All of them have one game per season in them of course. We can hope it's not today.

Whatever, snow point in worrying about it.

What's this 'Snow' everybody is talking about; has it been snowing in Brom?

It'll be the usual Boxing day bollocking for me from my Mother..... "We've come all this way on boxing day and you sit there warching bloody football! "

Come on City! Same line up as last weekend please. Confuse the fuck put of them and get some goals banged in. Lampard hat trick to celebrate him staying longer!

Previous scores since Brom's return to the Prem:

13/14 Brom 2 v 3 City
12/13 Brom 1 v 2 City
11/12 Brom 0 v 0 City
10/11 Brom 0 v 2 City

We did lose to them in the Carling Cup though in 10/11.

Lol come on Ted, you've defended lescott as a class defender religiously since he left.

Now you're making excuses for his poor play before we've even played them.

Covering your arse nice and early eh ;)

Mark Clattenburg for this one. Last couple of games were Arsenal away (2-2) and the Dippers last year where I thought was one of the most one sided refereeing performances of the last couple of seasons (lost 3-2).

Our record with him over the last 2 seasons has been D-W-L, in that order. Let's hope the sequence continues, at least until the next game he officiates us.

The last time he did this game we won 2-1. However, he did send Milner off in the 23rd minute.

I don't think he's played particularly well for WBA, although significantly better than the rest of their defence. They seem very poorly organised most of the time & he seems to be randomly running about trying to put out fires.

Now I've said that, they'll play like Juventus from the '70s.

I am getting a poor read on today's game, but I have punted on 3-1 City.

I've gone for 3-0 but it could easily be 2-1 looking at previous. We are on a crest of a wave though and I'm hoping that plays on the Baggies minds.

One thing though, I'll be keeping an eye on the ref.

I was thinking 2-1, but WBA are a bit shit at the back and I think we've got 3 goals in us against them.

You can tell we're coming up in the world with the level of reporting we're getting. We started with Cheshire Today and looking this morning, we're now getting previews from the illustrious publications as the Gloucestershire Echo, Gloucester Citizen and the Stroud Life.

I feel so proud.

We beat them when there was far better with 10 players so with no crap we will take 3 points . Think this is the time Chelsea will drop more points in next 4 games so we must be focused . Shame Aguero is out , he was on roll .
