OP is spot on.  Lucky as fuck point.

Thank God for Martinez and the tenacity of Davis.

Otherwise, not much else apart from the fact that McGinn nearly gave the ball away every time he passed it.

Why are Martinez saves lucky, but theirs not?

How do you have 70% of the ball and nigh on 3x as many shots on target, but end up being lucky as fuck?

Despite having 24 shots and 11 on target, I am not sure how many of them I thought was going in. I  thought we could be playing for another without scoring.
But after being pissed off and cross for 85 mins, what a joy for KD to score
absolutely  deserved for the effort he has put in in his short spells on the pitch
Wesley  looking bright, maybe we can move on with a positive mood for the rest of the season
Sams face was a picture as he stomped off down the tunnel

So delighted for Keinan (but the goal papers over an awful lot of cracks). Hopefully the first goal of many for him though! Good Wesley is back too.

This surely means now that, if crowds are allowed back into grounds next season, Blues and Albion fans will be singing about us when they play each other!  ;D

Really pleased for Davis, his first goal while not putting the final nail in their coffin has just about sealed the lid.
Hope he goes on in his career to be as prolific as Ronnie Allen.

We were the better side overall, but they had the better chances. If we can’t beat a dire Baggies side then if doesn’t bode very well for the remaining games.
Your post confuses me.

Crystal clear for me. What confuses you?

Delighted for Davis,  but it's getting harder to defend these dreadful displays.  It's as bad as anything served up by Bruce during his tenure.

Desn Smith may not necessarily get the sack, but NSWE need to give him and Purslow a severe talking to in the Summer.
If you think we are worse now than when Bruce was in charge you obviously didn't go in Bruce's tenure

We really wasn't that bad.

No, I get this.

We may have even deserved to win on the chances and the pressure of the last 20 mins.

However, you have to measure this against the opposition, the chances we conceded unnecessarily, all against a team who are effectively down and whom many on here have derided this season.

Happy for Keinan.

With a bit of confidence and aggression he could be a useful player. Needs to play further forward facing the goal. Not end up 50 yards from goal with his back to goal like Heskey used to

Wasn't he in Crossroads?

Ramsey in for Luiz for the rest of the season. Barkley nowhere near the squad from here on in. Serious money on a new midfield is required in summer.  The one we’ve got is slow, sloppy and predictable.  Albion’s pen was very soft.

Last game of 1959 ! The next season being Div 2 champions was my first full year of addiction.

Didn't say worse.  I said as bad as.
