We’re normally up for this game.
Should we go for a party type atmosphere? I think if we can win this we will be in a strong place.

The only chance of it happening is go at them from the start and don’t stop until we score otherwise it’ll be the same as Saturday

If we set up with wing backs the only noise will be at half time and full time.

We completely went to shit after that didn’t we? Thought MON had us playing some very good football at times. Was really pissed off think it was first away game of season at Millwall where we very meekly surrendered 2 nil and it went downhill from there. I’d high hopes that season…

Alfie Doughty was a late sub ( most Stokies thought he was shite) . Souttar was injured playing for Australia a few weeks later, and our season fizzled away without him. We played 3-4-2-1 with Smith and Tymon at WB, Allen and JT in midfield, and Powell and Vrancic behind Jacob Brown. We looked like a promotion side. That was the only side we’ve had since relegation that has looked like it could get out of this division in the right direction.

Yep, I remember their manager saying that we were the best team that they had played after that game. Friday night match I believe?

I've just looked into it though and you have been on these boards longer than 14 years so can not be classed as either an 'absolute throbber' or a 'junior'. You are good to criticise as you see fit sir.

Starting with two forwards will help…but we know it won’t happen. Nobody plays 2 forwards anymore, look at the Championship scoring charts. All the top scorers are wide forwards, who play in a 3. We need to start with a forward line of Million Mmaee Campbell/Haks/Vidigal With Bae at 10 behind them.

Wall of boos after a dreary first half maybe?
Fans seem happy to sit in silence at home.(not just us) been this way for longer than we've been wank too, was the same at most home matches when we finished 9th 3 years on the trot.
As for Unita1863(signing corner), has ended up making the atmosphere worst somehow and definitely a lot more disjointed, Just hope this safe standing get passed and the atmosphere starts to improve.
Boro at home is probably the most enjoyable home game this season, 90% due to the atmosphere.
Wish they would do a away season ticket, even if we get pumped at least we create some sort of atmosphere still.

Having fans in the south stand is about the worst thing to have happened to the atmosphere outside of the team being utterly abject.

West Brom will look on us as an easy walkover and will be focusing on their own class, which actually amounts to very little. Given our absurd tendency of struggling against teams like Hudds and doing quite well vs teams like Leeds and Boro, we will be up for the game quite a bit more than they are, so we shouldn't really be surprised if we walk awway from the game with three pts. But it won't be pretty !

The likelihood of an awful ref might incite the crowd. More chance than it being from our great attacking play

What I was getting at is, it's easy to say lets play 2 up top but that either means playing 442 (which nobody plays anymore and we don't have the wingers for) or we play with wing backs in a 352 and everyone is in universal agreement that we should never play wingbacks.
