Brum lost at home to Wigan - shocker of a result. Reckon they are getting very nervous

Still wonder how we not only lost to them but got outplayed by them as well

Now 12 points clear of relegation and on 35 points. Roughly 19 points to safety. At this rate, it won't take long - should be safe by game 35 ish. That'd make a change! :shock:

Bowen now P14, W8, D3, L3 = 1.9 ppg

Didn’t watch WBA Leeds but didn’t sound a thriller and predictably ended a draw

Could do with someone taking Watkins and Benrahma off Brentford, they’re lethal, together with Mbuemo. As I thought earlier in the season, Jansson has really solidified their defence

Good to see Lee Johnson miserable too, really don’t like him

Whoever sorts out Brentford’s recruitment is worth their weight in gold

Sell their best player from last year in Maupay for 20m and yet look even better up front this year

Those 2 mentioned must be 20m each as well

They are the only team I think who could break into that top 2 - but very unlikely I’d think

Brentford mate says they are excellent at the back and up front but very average in midfield.

that little spat he had with the Brentford boss made me giggle

He always seems to be either flavour of the month or being booed by his fans. Weird team

Apparently he’s not too far away from the chop either

Afobe being injured the entire season hasn’t helped mind, nor has his freezing out of Eliasson

They thought they had a massive transfer window bringing in Da Silva and Kalas. Kalas I've never rated particularly but they were one the moon with Da Silva.

Obviously has worked out too well. But they were on the back of getting in a ridiculous fee for Webster

edit, just noted Da Silva been injured for them until recently

Don't we have them at the Madejski in January? Hopefully 3 points on current form....

The only team to lose to Charlton since October too

Da Silva has been injured pretty much the entire season I think, been playing Rowe there

From what I gather, Johnson chops and changes his team too much, and brings players back from the cold for a game before freezing them out again, Bristol fans really aren’t happy either

Is he Gomes in disguise?

You think so? Must admit I thought they were pretty even last night. The draw about right. From what I've seen of the two, I've always thought WBA were the better side.

I'm just basing it on head to head this season and the current league standings. We will know for sure come May.

No, he’s kept his job longer than 15 games
