The Baggies looked nailed on for relegation last season, sacking both Tony Pullis and Alan Pardew.
Winning just six games all season and ending it with a 2-0 goodbye from Crystal Palace, caretaker manager Darren More oversaw a mini revival with a notable win over Spurs. Not enough though and down they have come, nursing a minus 25 goal differenece hangover and losing 19 times.
The only stat that will cheer them up is that they were not as bad as Derby.
They have a habit of losing football matches and Forest will need to get at them from the off, no repeat of Saturday is acceptable by the reds. We need to stamp our authority on the game.
I expect to see a few changes on Tuesday, there is no point in having a squad capable of fielding two Championship teams and not making use of them.
We need to tighten up at the back and force more work out of their keeper.

Well played Forest. A good game that.
We were well off the pace and are still adapting to the league but still had 5 or 6 golden opportunities to score.
I think based on our clear cut chances we deserved a point.

Yes, some quality crosses into the box. JR should have buried one of those.

Some very balanced comments by Forest fans on here.
I reckon both sides will take a lot out of last night's match. We desperately need the transfer window to close but, with the likes of Phillips, Gayle and Barnes, we've definitely got the fire power up front. We just need to work on their supply.
Best of luck for the rest of the season to Forest (apart from the return match)!

It was a great game of football! Ironing for work, I could barely watch the last 20.
My eggs ended up hard (I prefer them runny) and how the living duck I ended up without an iron shaped hole in my shirt, I'll never know.
Gayle is a superior (albeit proven) replacement to Rodriguez in this league.
It's a very strong league this year. Let's hope we're both celebrating come May.
Cheers

Gayle is a replacement for Rondon rather than Rodriguez but i take your point.
