Blackpool 1 West Brom 3

West Brom logoA late Kevin Phillips double and an Ishmael Miller goal saw Albion go top of the table.

Tony Mowbray’s men overtook Bristol City at the summit when super substitute Phillips scored twice in three minutes.

Albion had earlier appeared to be suffering a Wembley hangover, Ben Burgess giving the home side the lead in the 35th minute.

After running Portsmouth so close, Albion again seemed unable to find the net until the 81st minute, when the veteran striker scored a penalty following a foul on Carl Hoefkens.

His second from six yards, three minutes later, put Albion on course for the top.

Miller made certain by lobbing the keeper on 87 minutes to cap off a frantic end to the match.

    U ONLY SPEAK WEN WE LOSE!!! SPEAK WEN WE LOSE!!! U ONLI SPEAK WE WE LOSE!!!

  32. JayStation said:

    West Brom are a class act. Is that what’s needed to get out of the league? I don’t know, although it looks like it. Couldn’t give a stuff about our Black Country ‘mates’, why bother with the insults my fellow baggies? IF we go up, that will be enough. I for one, just enjoy being able to watch quality football. After saying that - BOING BOING - COME ON ME BEAUTIES!

  33. Avon Baggie said:

    forget about the wolves fans!!!! Just enjoy being top of the league, there are as many decent well wishing wolves fans who were very gracious about us on Saturday, so don’t stoop to the idiots level. I hope they go up too, just imagine the premier league with Baggies, Villa, Wolves & Blues. It would be great for the west midlands.

  34. Loyal-Cannock-Wolf said:

    Doesn’t bother me at all…So you won against Blackpool, Bravo….

    Gonna be another ding dong derby at the Molineux.

    P.s. Lol you actually think wolves fans dont comment cos you won, more like we can’t normally be bothered…

    Bring it on scum!!

  35. stevebullisKING said:

    we all agree blakey is better then phillips.

  36. Baggie Tait said:

    Top of the league with a game in hand. a win against Watford and then 3 points at the weetabix factory on Tues could see us through.

  40. Michael said:

    sorry watching proper football on tv.
    its not where you are now its where you are end of the season you cant handle it at the top your players will bottle it again.
    won one game in 3 what a team you are.
    off again already aren’t you.

  41. Dave said:

    Poor Win. First half sounded dismal. I understand why Mowbury played More, but I think he’s proved himself useless, send him back to Villa. Get Philips signed NOW! If he wants a 3yr contract, give it him. He’s worth ten of Luke Moore!

  42. Gold'n'Black Wolf said:

    What ? are we supposed to be impressed.
    no chance needed a pen to get back into the game and you should have been 2-0 down by then anyhow.

  43. frankthegas said:

    Dingles Dingles we are top of the league

  44. WakeyBaggie said:

    A great result lads and a crucial 3 points.
    The silence is deafening from Doghead Dingle Land.
    Sort Watford out on Saturday and the prize is almost ours.

  54. we8wba said:

    good result and well done being top

    lets face it your strength of squad and how poor the league been this season you should been top by country mile

    obviosuly you wont question this now seems you finally reached the top

    but why the hell you not been top most season? you should really done a reading on the league both the past two seasons

    really as daft as it sounds your underacheiving in this league! but that sounds silly now your top lol

  55. AMS said:

    Same again next Tuesday please!
    Not Vintage Albion but at this end of the season its all about the points.
    Keep the faith. We can make it.

  56. hilltop baggie said:

    just back from the “seaside”. And i went for a stroll along the prom too, and guess what…….. we loved to win. Made up for saturday, not fluent, but ill take it. great to be top and a game in hand, believe boys, believe.

  57. optimistic wolf said:

    GUTTED.That’s how i felt when Albion came back from the brink.But then i looked at the table and it sort of had a re-assuring look about it.Albion top,huh.But then i thought cream always rises to the top and that KP yeah he is good, a class above(The cream) and Albion are going up automatically this year.But cream and class costs money and at the end of the day,i was watching the champions league and you, us,we are miles behind but we have a 1/2 Billionaire chairman and cream costs money so we will have to be patient but money talks and we will overtake you and we can sustain it cos we have the money and you don’t.You can only hope to be a Derby where as we can only hope to be a M’Boro/Tottenham/Blackburn.Like i say you’re going up auto but we’ll follow you in play-offs but you’ll be back down and skint(Sot’on)/(Leeds) and we will prosper(money)..KP etc.

  58. brian said:

    brisbane baggie said wolves might have2 games in hand but 9 points behind they will have use 4 of them to overtake the mighty baggies. As for giving cheap addmision to the games albion are not so tight as wolves or don’t they get enough suporters to pay for it

  59. KingWolf said:

    Just wait till tues….. nothing better than beating top of the league oppositon! )p.s cant wait for portsmouth vs cardiff haha

  60. Simon in Oklahoma! said:

    3. Ken Hawthorn. Yeah…i’ve got this to say.

    Its a game you were expected to win…& you nearly blew it. You didn’t, & you’ve gone top. But…You have to face Watford then us in the next few days when you still haven’t recovered from Wembley. You may get 4 points, but its more likely to be 2.

    I expect you’ll go up, probably as champions, & we’ll lose in the play offs. If you beat us, then we’ll miss out on the play offs to Ipswich.

    That ok Ken?…or is there anything else you’d like me to add.

    Simon :)

  61. raythewolf said:

    we were all watching a proper football team on the telly…………….come on you wolves

  62. westbromwichalbion said:

    To all the muggie dog heads out there.HAHAHA.
    To all the real football fans,come on wolves.You can do it.you have a class act up front now,anything is possable.

  63. Cyril Randle said:

    It couldn’t have been tiredness as we finished the stronger team. Was it that elusive 100th goal causing the tension? Even then it didn’t quite want to go in except off the post. Should we get promoted now, I think KP may well deserve a 2 year contract as a thank you. A lot of dosh tied up in an old(ish) player, but 24 goals and counting says it all really.

  64. nige wolf said:

    i hear mr.Mowbray took your boys onto the beach for some pre-match light training, but they got booted off by the owner of the donkeys that the kids pay to ride because he thought mr. mowbray was trying to muscle in on his business!!

  65. TonyWBA said:

    Quality result, win against Watford Saturday and we stand a good chance of gaining promotion at the Molineux.

    How I would love that!!!!

  66. southbank barmy army said:

    how lucky was that..yes i think you may just go up..but so are we. we’ll give you a football lesson next week, and then show you how to win a play off final.

    but the bad news is..while you yo yo’s go straight back down, we’ll show you how to survive in he premier. next season will be a learning curve for you..and who better to teach you than..THE MIGHTY WOLVES!!!!!!!!

    WINNING AT WEMBLEY (AGAIN) THE MCARTHY WAY..IN STYLE OF COURSE..OH YES!!

  67. edwolf said:

    fair play,i thought u had blown it,expected ulot to go up automatic anyway. we’ll c what happens tuesday now, big games for us both saturday first tho!!!!

  68. mossa blackpool said:

    went to the match..it was awfull…no it was worse than that, the baggies thought they had the right to win this one, and if players were rated, apart from philips none would have got more than 2. it was unfair to the travelling faithfull a performance like this, yet they scratched the win.

  69. wolveswolves said:

    Lucky Lucky Boggies…..
    Think at this stage that could make all the difference.

    There are many twists and turns yet before the season ends

  70. nige wolf said:

    y cant we get a comment up on here are the moderators being a bit picky today!!!!!

  71. ev123uk said:

    coming from a wolves fan this may sound strange but WELL DONE!! i live in stafford so no longer have to hear the crowing of clayhead Stoke fans saying they are going up!! The silence is deafening!!!

  72. The Real Bully said:

    This is an immense result in the context. Not because it was away from home or because of who we were playing but because of Saturdays game. I thought this was a banana skin waiting to happen. Three days after a semi final defeat which would have been mentally shattering as well as physically tiring. I don’t care that we played poorly, the fact that we kept going for 90 minutes speaks volumes for the character in the team. Taking nothing for granted but this could be the catalyst, the game that when we look back we say this was this season’s Bradford.
    WELL DONE THE PLAYERS, WELL DONE THE FANS. LET’S TALK ABOUT OUR TEAM ON HERE AND LET OTHERS WORRY ABOUT THEIR OWN. BOING BOING.

  73. Brizzle Wolf said:

    Believe it or not I am actually happy you won as I live in Bristol, My second team is Bristol Rovers and I am glad yow knocked the scum off the top!! It Comes to something when I prefer The Tesco to go up rather than another team but there you go. Hope we also do you a favour on Saturday because you aint gonna get any favours on Tuesday!! :0)

  74. wbabomber said:

    Do not be fooled up until the introduction of Super Kev we were awful, first shot on target in the 79th minute. Mowbrays starting eleven and formation was baffling, Blackpool should have been three up by half time, but then came the last ten minutes and we ran riot.
    If it has taught Mowbray anything, it should be that when fit Phillips must start every game now until the end of the season.

  75. RealistWolves said:

    Good fighting spirit last night and solid result.That’s what all teams need to see in this part of the season. So is promising sign.

    Happy-Your fast becoming like some of our idiots and your own TWB (officer Dooey), by becoming cocky and making outrageous claims. Shame as do respect many of your opinions.

  76. rob43 said:

    21 - at least there’s someone else over 13 years old on here then, other than me! Lets hope you go up automatic coz we don’t want you in the play offs if we make it the nerves wouldn’t take it again. Looking forward to a good blood and thunder derby on Tue at our place, see you there..

  77. baggie said:

    Where are all the dingles??? SOUTHBANK ARMY who r u who r u Shhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh

  78. Dr Wolf said:

    Well done to the Baggies.

    You cannot argue with the stats, top of the pile, best goal diff and some of the best attacking footy played in the div this year. You are where you are on merit and deserve promotion.

    Our time will come, we are still building and the future is bright for wolves fans. I just cant see us beating Bristol & then you guys next week, hope so but I think it is too big an ask, our poor form earlier in the season is costing us.

    However, I do think that come the end of next season we will be passing you guys as we go up and you come down! (sorry, had to get at least one dig in!).

  79. Codsallwolf said:

    Kevin Phillips was the only player who showed any desire. Carry on like that and teams like Watford will stuff you.

  80. Finchy - Wolves!!!! said:

    haha u lot make me laugh you struggled against blackpool well done!!!!! 9 points behind you with game in hand and gona beat ya next tuesday your quarenteed to lose before the seasons out so not looking so bad from gold and black point of view!!!! COME ON YOU WOLVES

  81. ASTLE IS THE KING said:

    forget wolves lets have the banter if we get there
    we were lucky last night
    should of gone in 3 down at half time
    dont want to sound like im knocking tm but phillips has to start every time
    for me he made a mistake leaving him on the bench
    and we were fortunate that when he came on we were only 1 down
    but i`ll take the 3 points and look forward to watford on sat
    come on you baggie boys !!!!!!!!

  82. Funkster London said:

    Well done, shows good spirit! but BristolBaggie…. how can you compare Phillips with Bull? there is nothing to compare, even phillips himself would never try to justify that one! I’m pleased you won, in all honesty if you get auto promotion and we’re in play offs I’d rather it be that way, so good luck. but get real buddy!

  83. BoingBoing666 said:

    we8wba

    I totally agree with the underachieving part. We really should be a distance out in front as we were mid season. But we never do things the easy way do we!

    52

    What are you on?? We were the first to pull off the great Escape? As for you guys ever exceeding ourselves, please just look at previous results.

  84. RealistWolves said:

    68.

    SOUTHBANK ARMY who are you?

    Kind of answered your own question there mate, think on.

  85. london wolf said:

    if we look at the last two games i think we’ve found your level !!

    seriously, you need to win games that you dont play well in or deserve to win in order to get automatic promotion, so fair play.

  86. WakeyBaggie said:

    16 & 20 Can I congratulate Super Kev on winning the best player in the championship for the season and the Super Stripes for putting the Wembley dissapointment behind them to go top. Any chants for Mick out this week?????

  87. Baggiebob said:

    Dingles take the mick, ‘cos no one else was stupid enough to manage them. Boing Boing

  88. steve said:

    great result BUT… if we were not awarded a penalty the result would have been very different and a lot of cussing n cursing going on… we are where we r simply because other teams have failed to consolidate their positions of late… we do seem to have fight in us though and that may just get us over the line..

  89. owen-wba said:

    yh we played poor for 80minutes, but isn’t football a 90minute game??? yh we didn’t deserve to win 3-1, but when phillips came on with 15 to go we were certainly brighter, no gera morrison and bednar, resting for the dingles, unbeaten for rest of the season…. definately. beat the dingles and go up in style!!

  90. Mark B said:

    South Bank Barmy Army (MORON)

    Good result for you , I hope you can do us a favour and we can recipricate over the weekend.

    Mind you I hope the result goes our way on Tuesday

    Up the Wolves

  91. Richard_Baggie22 said:

    SEB Better than Phillips HA HA you wolves fans are dreaming Phillips at 21 or SEB at 21??? Phillips anyday of the week.

    Good 3 points last night how many did the wolves get from there? 1 was it. Not getting to upbeat about this but lets hope we can go on from here

    Listen Baggies:- I listened to the whole match last night on the radio and you were shocking all of the first half and blackpool were making you look a right load of plonkers.. Even the commentators said so!! You all were texting in to the radio show saying “Whats mowbray playing at Get rid of Moore get rid of moore” and you were all pooping yourselves well into the second half. If you do go up your gonna come straight back down… Boing Kerplunk doing it the moo-berry way

    You’re like spoilt little kids jumping up and down for attention - ‘look at me daddy, i won, look at me’. Your hilarious. OK, you have our attention now! The prem must be crapping their pants after your barnstorming win over the mighty Blackpool ‘Kings of Europe’.

    I do actually want you to go up along with us, but please stop embarrassing yourselves by crying for attention like most of the above, it’s cringeworthy.

    94,tinytim,we was awful for 80 minutes,but brilliant for 10,you lot more than anybody should know a 1-0 lead agenst us is not enuff with our strikeforce and remember we still had our wembley hangover,think what would have happened if we had played well,boing boing going up as champions

  104. baggie Boy said:

    LCW…… Bitter and twisted today are we not resorting to calling us scum is even below your normal level.

    SOUTH BANK .. I wondered how long it would take for one of you to say “if you go up you will come straight back down”
    well
    1 Who cares
    2 we will have another 50 million to help the “poorthorns out”
    3 It will giveyou sonething to crow about (at least you will have something to shout about)

  105. The Real Bully said:

    Finchy. Look at the goal difference. Make that ten points behind.
    We8WBA. I’ve covered this on another thread but think it worth a mention. In this division because of our style of play, when we look good we look very good. The problem is teams without a lot of ambition IE Leicester can make life difficult by being organised. It’s much more difficult for them to play this way against the chuck it in the air teams like Hull, Stoke and Watford. The problem is that the up and at ‘em style doesn’t work in the Prem and you can’t totally change your personnel and playing style in a few months if you get automatic or weeks through the play offs. If we break the hoodoo and get up by playing football then I think some of the bigger clubs, yourselves,Charlton, Ipswich and a few others may well adopt the same tactics next season. The ones that don’t go up this season of course.I’d be interested to hear what others think and good luck to both our clubs in reaching the prem.

    At the end of the day it was a good result for us, regardless of how we played. Quite frankly at this point in the season, i’ll take the rubbish play and 3-1 victories. Although I really don’t think my nerves can take much more. I think Luke Moore played well for us last night, without much success, his work rate was fantastic. He was trying to prove his worth, and to the baggies fans that he want’s to be play for us and succeed. I have to admit this game worried me as I could see us loosing it, so I am more than happy with the final result.

    good 3 points at blackpool but can you see why your fans always look so stupid when you fail? you win 1 game and look at the comments ‘were already up’ ‘out of the championship’ ‘bye bye dingles’ if you lose your next 2 games where there is adistinct possibility that you will you will be backs against the wall. remember last season how silly you looked?

    Like Tim (94) I listened to the whole game on the radio, and he’s right, we were poor last night till the 80th minute, but that’s the sign of a good side, winning when you don’t play well. Should be a good game next Tuesday, hopefully SEB won’t get a sniff (just like when we played Plymouth away). We played with a weakened side last night, I’m sure Gera, Bednar & Phillips will play a bigger part on Saturday and at the custard bowl (can’t wait).

    Blackpool far better last night.

    92. Bristol Baggie is right.
    Kevin Phillips was European Golden Shoe Award Winner in 1999 to 2000. Top scorer in Premier League with 30 goals for Sunderland.
    Steve Bull never ever managed to be top scorer in any one season in the second tier of English football. Only in Division Three and Four in 1987/8 and 1988/9 was he top scorer with in excess of 50 goals each season.

    The table never lies Dingles, face it we’re just better than you. If all you can rely on to make you happy is us losing, it just shows how sad your crappy little club is…..

    boggie boy.. i think 2 things..

    1. ALBION.. will go up automatically with hull. both of you will be relegated.

    2.WOLVES.. will go up as play off winners (we don’t loose at wembley remember) and like sunderland and blues, we will survive.

    i base those assumptions on the fact that, of the 3 teams promoted..wolves will have the youngest squad, with masses of room for improvement. they’re also getting big game experience from this crucial run in.

    THERE YOU GO..A NICE FOOTBALL COMMENT WITH NO NASTY JIBES AT ANYONE.

  113. baggie Boy said:

    109… Could not agree more but as the Fa cup Semi proved you dont always get what you deserve in football.

    The great Ronnie Allen once wrote a book it was called “Its goals that count” on saturday Pompey proved that as we did last night

  114. baggie Boy said:

    112… see its not that hard (even if you are slightly lieing as its Baggie Boy not Boggie Boy) although Albions team aint that old. Deano will not be the keeper next year Danek will that leaves just 1 player over 30ish (I think)

  115. themowbrayway said:

    What a win last night, no matter how we did it. We have goals in the team so are always likely to pull a game around, but doubly impressive after losing at Wembley a few days before. Now lets see if we can stay there. We’re in a great position. Very optimistic Baggie

  116. Danish Baggies said:

    Yes we Baggies are very lucky. In fact we have been lucky 103 times this season ;-)

  117. SouthBankBoinger said:

    57. as a wolves fan you should know better than most that money doesn’t guarantee success. How many millions did SJH waste on Wolves ? and at the end of it all he sold you for a tenner LOL, in the same era Albion had three premiership seasons without a golden tit feeding us. There are many teams now with very rich owners, not least QPR, so don’t assume Morgan’s £30million will get you far (especially at the rate you’re spending it). At least Albion can be proud of their achievements, Wolves can just be thankful to a rich benefactor.

    Iforecast that when the baggies have 9 more points, they will have achieved automatic promotion. booing booing

    To end this debate - Wolves drew 0-0 at Blackpool - Baggies WON 3-1 !!!

ALBION TILL I DIE

  124. Baggie Stu said:

    94. These commentators who said we were shocking, wouldn’t have been “Dingle Daz Hale” perchance!! We struggled and looked jaded first half but looked much better when Morrison came on for Pele and we adopted a more orthodox 4-4-2. From 60 minutes on we dominated and Super Kev provided the additional goal power!! You may have noted (but won’t admit it!!) that the same commentators also stated that “no other team in the division would have the devestating fire-power to be able to do what Albion have just done”!!

    Get over it!!

    Well, a couple of Wolves fans seem to have their heads screwed on. Pity there aren’t more. Looking at the majority of the Wolves postings, you’d think Wolverhampton was a city full of imbeciles.
    Over the moon with last night’s win. Does it really matter that we didn’t play them off the park? How many times have we done that and got nothing?
    The Baggies are top with games in hand.
    Wolves are 7th with games in hand.
    Enough said really.
    Why are you Wolves fans so obsessed with the Baggies?
    Just concentrate on supporting your own team and getting them into the play offs rather than getting your kicks from waiting for us to fail.

    I’m a Wolf in exile by the seaside. Went to game last night. Blackpool were robbed by a v. dodgy ref and some classic smash & grab by Phillips. for 80 mins A****n were 2nd best. Then a poor penalty shout gave you a lifeline. Every credit, you took it but if Blackpool could finish, you’d have lost by 2 or 3. So don’t get too carried away because better teams will turn you over cause last night you were lightweight until last 10 (with a bias ref!)

    Big, stupid and wears a gold and black cap !

    Well Done you baggie boys, you didn’t play at all well but you still nicked the 3 points.
    What was it MM said he would play ugly football if he could get 3 points for doing so.
    Heard on the news Steve Bull to replace MM if they don’t get promoted ooops sorry should have read MM to replace Steve Bull to show him how it should be done.

    We where utter rubish agreed but the ref was fair I suppose you was not looking in the first half when 9 out of 10 decisions wher going Blackpools way.

    Fair play A*bion, I actually didn’t think you would win after the disappointment of the FA Cup loss. That’s not coming from gold n black tinted specs either.

    On the other hand, I don’t think you’re predictions of a 7-0 win are going to be acurate, it will be a tight game and I can see a few goals, maybe a 3-2 win for either side.

    I do actually hope you get promoted automatically, because from an honest point of view I think you would be too strong for us over two legs. I’d like to see the Black Country derby in the top flight next season, as I’m sure a lot of you do. Anyway, good luck for Tuesday, hoping for a Wolves win to continue our good form but whoever wins, let’s all hope this area has two teams in the Premiership next season.

    Hehe, you’re exactly right. And the beauty is, you don’t even know why!
