West Brom v Wolves (FAC4) comms thread.

[A wanderer from Bristol]

If abandoned will there be replay

Zero chance. Risk a repeat of the crowd trouble? No way

 

[rincewind]

You’re welcome. I think it’s odd that it didn’t kick off after the first goal of its wolves fans in the home end.

On the day of the Bully winner we were in the Halfords lane. Didn't celebrate our first goal (much, pretend the reaction was anger ). As the game wore on it became clear there were load of Wolves fans and the place erupted with that goal. Guess it was similar today but nowhere near as many Wolves and it is different.

Cunha has a big grin on his face... I actually think he loves all this atmosphere.

 

[Ned]

If we concede early from this restart I’m going to be absolutely livid, the game was dead and buried at 2-0. We were swaggering and they’d accepted defeat.

 

[brianm]

Looking like they are warming up to play on...hopefully this match can be played to the end and everyone can get home safely.

 

[Southdownswolf]

13 minutes of the game left

 

[WickedWolfie]

If necessary, clear the ground and play the last 10 mins behind closed doors. I just hope it’s not like a war zone outside the ground..

That would never happen because the Old Bill have more control over the idiots in the ground than outside. Once outside there would be trouble over a widespread area

 

[Streathamwolf]

I’m unsure though tbh. We’re only hearing the narrative from the comms team. Could be several lads are tanked, spewing bile and being offensive, someone spoken up to tell them to pipe down as there are kids around and they kicked off. All guesswork really, but I am not sure how wolves fans could get into the home end - all ticket sales surely scrutinised much more closely. I dunno though. Could be anything kicking off - the fact there are still issues suggests it’s their own Nesbit ******s fighting amongst themselves.

I had a chance to go in with the Baggies, declined.

 

[Wall heath Wanderer]

So if it restarts from the time the goal went in, can we start with a celebration.

 

[Big Mack]

Starting again on 77 minutes

 

[Willywolf]

13 minutes of the game left

Plenty of time to add 2 more

 

[Southdownswolf]

Chirewa coming on for Neto

 

[GoldenHorseshoe]

Nobody was doing anything when bottles were thrown at Doyle from that corner of the ground.

 

[Netherton Wolf]

I know a few WBA STHs, & they have all left & gone home

 

[Wonder Boyo]

If either side score after the restart it's going to be chaos in there.

 

[Dorbelflunk]

Shame, but the predictable knee jerk reaction from the FA will see the next BC derby played behind closed doors or with home fans only.

It would be warranted. These are gruesome scenes.

 

[Bryce]

Let’s be professional see this out

 

[Big Mack]

Waiting on paramedics being available again

 

[thommo1984]

Sorry to say I'm in the Birmingham road end on my own and I'm ecstatic were winning but uve got to be sensible and after cunha scored some wolves fans also in here celebrated.one even took his coat off to reveal his wolves shirt.no need and a bit of an idiot but there's no excuse for the violence

You're a braver man than me. Wouldn't consider it for even a second.

 

[Streathamwolf]

Seems crazy to call it off now. Looks like everything is under control, crack on for 8 more minutes.

13 minutes apparently

 

[Aimless Balls]

If Pedro is off it’s smart. Don’t mess around with that hammy and don’t get him bottled.

Neto off

WM said at first that it was West Brom fans fighting amongst themselves.

 

[WickedWolfie]

That's my recollection from my match going days 40 odd years ago.

Back in that era, and l was there, some folk did Wolves and Albion alternately. As a Salopian l did Wolves and Shrewsbury with my late old man.

 

[GuzzWolf]

Surely it would be obvious any Wolves fans we in as their knuckles wouldn't be bleeding.

 

[Wall heath Wanderer]

I hate seeing players with ripped holes in their socks, just get some that fit properly.

 

[YouGottaRaulWithIt]

Zero chance. Risk a repeat of the crowd trouble? No way

Hope not, but when the third goal goes in...

 

[brianm]

I know a few WBA STHs, & they have all left & gone home

Sensible.

That is asking for trouble! Agreed no excuse but that is a serious wind up.

 

[wolfslair]

Has Lee Dixon just asked what happened to the cold sponge, when talking about doing something to get the body warm……

My word…..

 

[Adrian_Monk]

Sasa coming on for Albion

 

[tamwolf]

BBC live feed encouraging people to get involved in the trouble.

West Brom hooligans like to frequent that area of the ground.

 

[Timberrrr]

Left the ground now.too old for this

 

[Contrarian]

Nobody was doing anything when bottles were thrown at Doyle from that corner of the ground.

I thought that was the opposite corner? The corner at the end where Wolves fans are, but there is a large empty area segregating them in the corner. Several bottles clearly thrown .

 

[Premier Quality]

I’m hoping the headlines are “West Brom fans are revolting…”

 

[Ned]

I’m hoping the headlines are “West Brom fans are revolting…”

We will get the blame somehow.

It was exactly like that in the WBA v Boro game earlier this season. I was in the Boro end with my wife and daughter (Boro fans) and despite being comfortably ahead, their idiots were kicking off.

 

[Southdownswolf]

At least it means ITV will have less time to talk about Klippety later
