I reckon thats not bad. Quite close, ex premier league ground and they've been a bit up and down in each game. I'll be there, could get a reasonable following I reckon

Over 25 years since we last played them and then it was 3 times in one season! Never beaten them

Happy with that!! Should take a decent following.

Just glad we didn't draw someone in our league.

Good draw. Another ground that I can tick off following the Stags and you never know we may pull off an upset!

Family Von Trapp - make sure you get the warm flat cider in. No trip to West Brom is complete without it.

Don't forget we are at a big disadvantage playing at such altitude.

Remind who used that one previously :lol:

Euston to Birmingham might be possible after work! Good tie, we could pull off a shock if they rest players.

Always remember the league game there on a Sunday, when we took about 900.

Boo boy Alan Walker was getting booked and the away fans were singing “off,off, off”, he turned and clappes us straight after.

Lost 2-0 I think.

Remember it well Mike, I think it was around Christmas time, I was based in London at the time and went to the game on my way home for Christmas leave. I don't remember much about the game though, Walker was treated badly by our fans, but he was pretty poor!

It's a half decent tie but will be a serious test if they take it anything like seriously. Would of preferred anyone at home.

Up in the seats, if I remember correctly. WBA were a good side for that division (managed by Alan Buckley?) And liked to pass it around.

Anyone who thinks WBA away isn’t all that great, pause and reflect!!! A few years back at the end of August we would have been playing the likes of Barrow in non league. Now our neighbours are instead. I love it !!! Karma.
