Cheers Birkir.

Not good enough. QPR is an even more of a must-win now.

[Davkaus]

[Hanky]

Poor result, but pretty unsurprising. Need a decent window/Grealish fit or I think we’ll struggle to make the play offs. 

[jim]

Very poor. Drawing too many games under Smith.

Needs to do better.

[JAMAICAN-VILLAN]

And until we sort out these silly little errors, we will remain "thereabouts", never there!

[osmark86]

all least we scored all the goals...

[hippo]

Wonder if Kjodia would have tucked that BB chance away ?

[Farlz]

Nothing side without Grealish. That's a huge problem. 

[Vive_La_Villa]

Normally that would have been an ok result but we just can’t keep dropping points. I think results elsewhere show there’s no easy game in this league.  On to QPR.

[Nigel]

Smiths first real mistake for me, we looked tired.

Should have played Kodjia and Adomah from the start.

Reall Gutter not to win that considering the situation.

[pacbuddies]

Thrown away again. No ground gained as the inbreds from West Brom equalised with 10 men!

[PaddytheVillan]

Very poor. Bjarnason's miss was a shocker but let's not forget they hit the post twice and had the nutmegged shot over the line. We were lucky to scrape a draw. It was embarrassing when they kept on playing long balls through the middle that split our centre backs. 

Teams above us dropped points...the fact we can't capitalise tells you everything you need to know about our promotion chances.

Footage of BB missing that great chance at the end:

 

[rendelc]

We are not good enough to go up . 

[brummybloke]

Only saw first 30 odd minutes, bolasie was poor.

It's another 2 points dropped which is slowly seeing any chance we have of tumbling away.

Said before Elmos confidence was shot to shite and having not seen the own goal it's another negative from him.

Yet again we have the 'easy teams to play and don't bring home the points.

 

Another anti climax

[Dale]

Need to freshen up as much as is possible for Tuesday. Clear the energy isn't there... 

[AVTuco]

Very poor result against a terribly injury-ridden Preston. Not good enough Smith. Where did the good performances go?
