Happy 2013, LOBers!

A very excellent early New Year's morning to all of you in LOB land! I'm up to watch WBA v. Fulham, which starts in a few moments. At 10am, we've got a full slate of New Year's fare, including Wigan hosting ManYoo and Leeds hosting Bolton. Finally, we've got Arsenal v. Soton at the Em. Join me for all the festive footie this morning, lads!

The Hawthorns is looking bright and sunny on this New Year's Day. The FSC coverage has started and here are the teams out on the pitch:

WBA: Foster, Jones, McAuley, Tamas, Ridgewell, Brunt, Mulumbu, Fortuné, Morrison, Gera, Lukaku.

Fulham: Stockdale; Riether, Hughes, Hangeland, Briggs; Dejagah, Sidwell, Karagouinis, Kacaniklic; Ruiz; Berbatov

West Brom start the day in 7th but could leap up to 4th with a win. Fulham are in 14th and slipping ever so close to the relegation zone. They've also got one of the worst away records in the Prem.

7:33 AM

Poor form from FSC, pushing forward a gringo announcer who's having a 'mare this morning, pronouncing The Chunk's name "Lokuko" and saying "Nor-witch" instead of "Norridge."

Some big goalscorers on display this morning. Dracula, one of the best signings of this past summer is on half a dozen goals while Lukaku is on five.

And Fulham get us away!

Watford and Charlton kick-off at the top of the hour.

7:48 AM

Loose stuff from the Baggie so far. Fulham are zipping the ball about impressively

7:51 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Apparently the Fulham team were kept awake last night by boozed-up revelers outside their hotel. You can't tell that from the lively start they've had here. Two early corners in a row.

7:56 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

All long balls lumped at Lukaku so far from the Baggies.

7:57 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Steve Sidwell tries a pop with his unfavored left foot and scores a rugby conversion.

7:58 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

This is all too easy for Fulham and they really should be making more of the fact that West Brom are sleepwalking. There is very little pressure on the visitors when they have the ball and their runs are being tracked only in token fashion.

8:01 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Kick-off time at Watford - I'll keep you up to date with the goings-on at Udinese West.

8:02 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Again - more good pressure from Fulham without any cutting edge. They haven't managed a shot on goal.

8:05 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Audible groans from the Baggies faithful now....

8:07 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Free kick chance for the Baggies....Stockdale in the Fulham goal came for it but ended up in no man's land. Cleared out.

8:10 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Route 1 for WBA starting with a lump from the keep up to Fortune who took it well off the chest and then had his right-footed shot deflected out for a corner.

8:11 AM

Two quick corners in succession for the Baggies - they seem to have woken up from their New Year's hangover.

Brunt again plays a really lazy ball - he's off the boil for sure.

The Chunk receives the ball wide left and goes straight for goal. Hangeland gets back to block him.

Watford have taken the lead against Charlton through Daniel Pudl, whoever the hell he is. Udinese West up to 5th in the Championship now.

8:18 AM

Nice interplay between Karagounis and Ruiz but he's upended by Mulumbu - not sure why the referee didn't see that - play is waved on.

8:20 AM

Corner to the Baggies now....

Stockdale looks jittery but gets a free kick for a nudge on the back.

8:21 AM

Steve Clark's looking particularly grumpy this afternoon.

GOAL! Drac arrives in the box to score the first Prem goal of 2013!

Of course this is the first day of the new transfer window. All eyes are on Demba Ba, Frank Lampard and perhaps Joe Cole or Joleon Lescott.

But I'll be keeping a close eye on Leeds to see what the indications are from the new ownership team.

Ridiculous - I wonder why we passed on him!?

8:48 AM

Fortune has trod on Drac's foot and he's down for treatment. No sympathy from the Baggies fans.

Oh - I thought there was a particular incident, like King Eric kung fu kicking a fan or summit.

GOAL... Lakaku with a tap in

8:51 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

GOAL! WBA are back in it - The Chunk taps in after some wonderful work down the right from Billy Jones.

8:51 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

That's six goals in the Prem, mostly as a substitute, for the Chunk. Wonder if Chelski are regretting loaning him out.

How could it be offside if the ball was pulled back to him?

Off the post by the Chelsea loanee... WBA going straight at them!

This is the kind of the change I would like to see from United after a ho-hum first half... we usually continue to be ho-hum

8:55 AM

Fortune did well there to beat his man and fizz a ball over toward Mulumbu.

8:55 AM

Harry Redknapp was on Five Live last night talking about how much he hates the transfer window. I think he knows that no one good is going to want to board a sinking ship at QPR.

Oh - how did that stay out. First Lukaku and then hit the post and then Brunt's shot is cleared off the line.

So both matches this morning are at 1-2. Great take and turn by Kacaniklic for that goal.

9:05 AM

Some firepower for the Baggies now - Odemwinge and Long coming on.

9:08 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Fortune and Gera were the ones who made way.

9:08 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Both subs straight into it. A lovely flowing move by West Brom ends in frustration when Morrison can't collect a well-weighted pass from Long.

9:10 AM

Both announcers seem to be making a meal of goalscorer Kacaniklic's name.

9:11 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

The Baggies pouring on the pressure now. Corner....

9:12 AM

Stockdale rises to claim that free kick. Twenty minutes left for the Fulham defenders to hang on to this precious lead.

9:14 AM

Drac isn't happy about that Tamasz challenge.

9:15 AM  
Blogger United We Stand said...

Will Desmond arrive at the Hawthorns?

9:16 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Oh - Odemwinge made a yard for himself in the box but was quickly shut down.

9:16 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Perhaps, mate, but the Baggies need to be sharper.

9:16 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Watford and Charlton have resumed - I'm liking that scoreline. 1-2.

9:16 AM  
Blogger The Blue Devil said...

Oh - The Chunk was nearly onto that cross from Morrison and then he heads wide. He does look dangerous, though.

Desmond's knocking on the door but Fulham are hanging on well. And you could possibly see them extending their lead as well.

9:29 AM

Sorry - missed that score update, mate.

9:30 AM

Interestingly, Five Live were mentioning that it wasn't until 23 that TH-14 was played as a center forward instead of a winger. Theo's age - 23!

Robin van Persie returns to the Manchester United line-up for the trip to Wigan. The prolific Dutch striker's recall is one of five changes for the league leaders, with right-back Rafael coming back from a four-match absence with a hamstring injury along with Javier Hernandez, Ryan Giggs and Rio Ferdinand.

You don't have to worry about Citeh - United just need to keep winning. Seven points up - you can't be caught.

I know United want to make money all the time but they DON'T wear a second shirt if it is not needed!


Liverpool wore black on Sunday... does read clash with blue and white
Leeds wear a different shade of blue against the blue of Millwall

It is a pet peeve of mine!
