3,200 baggies tickets sold btw.
I'm in the crappy neutral though so may possibly be next to some tourist flump.
neutral stand
Let us know about your experience in the neutral stand.
I think I'm right in saying that Fulham are the only club in the league to have one.
Will comment properly tommorow about teams etc.
I've sat there before (lost 6-1 )
Bit weird really as I was sitting next to Fulham fans on 1 side and Baggies on the other. Bit weird having the opposition cheering in your face. Although Fulham fans are abit 'light' and it was more of a congratulatory clap than full on celebration.
Think Albion fans have most the neutral section for Sat though and I'm in the but right by the away fans so think it'll just be like I'm in the away bit.
And yes,
It is the only ground with a 'neutral zone'.

Was in the neutral end last year, but I think there was more baggies in there than normal cause of that £15 a ticket deal going on. Sheet game, but the atmosphere was much better than I was expecting. Obv nothing on being in the away end tho
@ChrisLepkowski
Morrison doubtful (groin) for Fulham game. Vydra still out. #wba

Camp

Some options there. Real strong bench aswell, even without arguably our best player (Mozza), our best finisher (Vydra) and our most influential player (Gera).

Fulham's always a tricky fixture - they usually seem to play blinders against us. I do like the ground though, how many other grounds do the managers and subs have to walk across the pitch to get to their dugouts? Quirky. And the neutral section is a good enough place to be.
Right on the river as well.
Any thoughts on the team aries?

Having said that about Shane Long, I see Steve Bruce has been commenting again about him....
Myhill; Jones, McAuley, Olsson, Ridgewell; Amalfitano, Mulumbu, Yacob, Brunt; Anelka, Anichebe. #wba
Chris Lepkowski @chrislepkowski 23m
Sessegnon not included due to work permit not yet granted #wba
Long out due to injury apparently
If Clarke's not careful and doesn't get these defenders sorted out and marking properly and stop letting in soft goals, he'll be gone in a very few short games.
Fulham haven't been that great but they are outmuscling us in midfield.
good point but some players performances were frustrating to say the least.
Well, I have to say thank the Lord for Gareth McAuley.
It amazes me - according to the BBC stats - that both teams had 12 shots on target, Albion four to Fulham's two, and the possession percentage was 55-45 to Fulham, the corner count 5-4 to Albion. Yet BBC Live made out it was all Fulham, with two clearly-offside goals disallowed. The BBC's bias is unbelievable, not helped by my pessimism about getting a result. But a good result it is.
