Mowbray hails 'watershed' win
Boss Tony Mowbray reckons Albion's victory at Norwich could prove a watershed for their season.
The Baggies produced their best performance for weeks to secure a deserved three points at Carrow Road and climb back into fourth place in the Championship.
And, with Saturday's Hawthorns humbling of Stoke still fresh in the memory, Mowbray was delighted with his players' response, insisting the level of their performance boded well for the club's long-term future.
"We want to get promotion but I am more interested in building a team for the future and there were signs yesterday of a team emerging from what we've got," said Mowbray.
"We looked a quality outfit, with quality players at the top of their game. Regardless of the result, even if we'd lost 1-0 I would still have said that.
"I was delighted. I've spent a lot of time trying to put things in place. I understand it's a results-driven business and people can knock you down when you lose games but there were signs that we're moving in the right direction."
Diomansy Kamara climbed off his sickbed to score Albion's injury time winner and end a six-game goal drought.
The Senegalese also went six games without scoring in December but then went on to net 13 goals in 16 games – and Mowbray is hoping lightning strikes twice.
"Let's hope it's a good omen for him and he scores a few more between now and the end of the season," he said. "People said it was a controversial decision to leave him outagainst Stoke. It was an ill player hoping he could contribute 10 minutes at the end."
