Is it too early to use such a title?
With both teams sat in the relegation places, albeit with only five games played, it probably is, but both teams know that a win today will lift them out of those feared three places.
Chris Baird, speaking about the importance of the fixture, has had this to say,
“We are 18th and they are 20th, it`s a six-pointer already.”
“I am a little surprised to see West Brom struggling under Roy, if I`m honest. He did wonders for Fulham and is up there with the best managers I have worked with throughout my career – and I`ve had a lot of managers.”
“West Brom are like us, a good footballing side in Roy`s mould. We are still benefiting from his time with us, especially in the Europa League this season.”
“He never left any stone unturned in his preparation. Every detail of information we needed about the opposition was there.”
“In his first season he saved us, then got us to seventh an dinto Europe. We reached the final of the Europa League and nearly won a trophy, while finishing a respectable 12th.”
“He`s a very intelligent man and I`ve got huge respect for him.”
It`ll be nice to see Roy again and have a chat but then I hope we turn them over.
