'Walsall away', red card call and anti-Ramsay chants: Three things you missed from West Brom's defeat to Coventry

Albion slipped to yet another defeat - as Eric Ramsay has now gone eight games without a win.

Albion started well before falling behind to a dreadful goal - before Jack Rudoni smashed in a second goal.

The Baggies didn't capitulate as they have done in recent weeks - and had the odd chance.

But it is now eight games without a win for Ramsay since he took over. Here is a look at three things you may have missed

Lucky Coventry

That headline isn't related to the scoreline - they deserved to win the game.

But they were lucky to stay with ten men on the field.

Frank Onyeka put in a tackle on Isaac Price and it was a nasty one. If it is in the Premier League, VAR calls that back and he is sent off.

It matters for nothing now, because Coventry did enough to go on and win the game, but it could have had a big say.

Chants - Mason all over again

It took a lot more games for fans turn on Ryan Mason - but it has taken eight for the whole of The Hawthorns to be chanting against Ramsay.

'Sacked in the morning' and comments about the style of play were directed at Ramsay throughout the game.

It took probably three or four months for the fans to start that with Mason - but to be honest we've heard it towards Ramsay already, before today.

It was louder than ever in this game. The only way they go away is by winning games - and you can't see that happening at the moment.

Walsall away jibs

There have been moments in the season where Albion fans have been feeling frustrated, embarrassed, and just sadness at what has happened.

And there was one moment in the second half where Coventry fans were subjecting them to a chant that kind of summed up just how low Albion have dropped this season.

Chants of 'Walsall away' from Coventry fans to Albion fans just sums up the situation.

That is no disrespect to Walsall, a great club in their own right. But how has it come to this?

The reality of where they are at the moment.
