Happy with last night's result, absolutely not happy with Ryan Lowes antics and post match interview! For most of the second half we were under the cosh, for the last twenty minutes we were obviously sitting too deep, a good manager would have been up on the touchline urging his lads forward, instead he is sat back in the dug out, looking extremely nervous almost cringing at the pressure we were under!! What sort of leadership is that!! He follows that up in his interview by admitting he felt we were really hanging on and was feeling extremely worried whether we could keep them out!! Sorry Ryan but for me that attitude is a deriliction of duty ! You need to be showing the same enthusiasm when your side are struggling as you do milking it with the fans at the end!!
Bloody poor man management in my eyes the team need a manager who leads!!

Think he's just had an operation so couldn't move too freely last night?

If I'm an alien and I've just landed on Earth and read that post then I'm definitely assuming we did not win 1-0.

Whenever I looked over he was almost on the pitch screaming at Riis to keep chasing. Didn’t sit him sat in the dugout at all.

Sky cut away to him a few times in the later stages and he was sitting on the bench with his legs crossed, listening to Gallagher etc. Body language-wise, you might conclude he looked nervous as the OP suggests. Or maybe his arm was just giving him some discomfort, who knows.

RL has resorted to ultra defensive football because the squad lacks quality in attack. The fans want the attacking football we were promised. Higher management seems to have gambled on selling the club before the day of reckoning next season. Let's hope Craig Hemmings realises that he has to change tack in January
 
I actually thought he gave a good interview post game and respected him for coming out and saying that he may have got a little over excited in the summer and its tough league when they questioned him about the play offs. The sky cameras did pan to him a few times in the last 20mins with him sat, legs crossed and looking very nervous.

Good job you're not the manager we'd concede at will...absolutely clueless

West brom had nowt to lose so as the game progressed there players pushed on more and risked getting hit on the break this then resulted in us being pushed back.

Our defenders strengths aren't pace/acceleration/speed...if we would of pressed to the half way line we would of been annihilated.


If you had van dijk, rio ferdinand and maldini you could of pushed up to their penalty area and they wouldn't of beat us on the break for pace...u play to your strengths

Seems common sense to me

Aye, obviously you look at your own team first but a lot of fans need to at least acknowledge the presence of another team on the pitch. Not every defeat or goal conceded is because we are awful (and of course the opposite also applies).

In our case Lindsay's strength is not turning or accelerating but, so far this season, he's shown he can be calm and composed, positionally sound and a good and brave tackler and blocker. Obviously you set up to avoid exposing his weaknesses too much and opponents will try and work them. That's what happened last night but because of our well organised defending as a team we won the game.

Hopefully a bit more can be done going forward (with better finishing and / or a bit more luck could easily have been 3 up last night before WBA even turned up) so we can talk about that instead.

Same for Cunningham. With those two back there sitting on the halfway line would be a disaster.
 
The game plan last night was spot on. Get at them early doors while they are still bereft of confidence from previous games, get that first goal and then trust that you have the steel to hold them off. To be honest, I think it's more ballsy (and solid) a plan then getting at them, because once we had that first goal they would have known how hard we are to beat.

Can't fault Lowe last night, and his tactical subs were spot on this time.
 
Lowe is not a strong manager. He lacks substance and will need to find a way to improve This team otherwise he will eventually go under. It’s not good football for the most part. We we were better all round last season.
