Jonny Drury caught up with West Brom fans after their side drew 1-1 with Hull - their 18th draw of the season.
The Baggies were the better side in the first half, but could not get in front.
John Swift cracked the bar early in the second period, before Isaac Price scored his first goal in a Baggies shirt to break the deadlock.
But they were denied all three points when substitute Abu Kamara poked home from close range.

00:00Mark, frustrating, is it a point gained or two dropped?
00:10Very much so, yeah, you know what, there's a part of me that thinks we did well to Angol
00:15at the end really, look I was in the Brummie so I think Joe's pulled a great save off at
00:19the end there hasn't he, and I just felt it was coming, the equaliser was coming, so yeah,
00:25ultimately the season's come into a pivotal time, we could have done with the three points
00:30but it wasn't quite, but I always had that feeling we weren't quite at it today, it's
00:35disappointing in that respect.
00:37Yeah I'm afraid so, it's, I don't know, we don't seem to be very good at all, we're better
00:42away, maybe, the other team have to attack more, they're holding back, it was a great
00:53goal but we just can't hang on, it's not been frustrating, you know, let's hope we get
01:01a pass, I've got my doubts, but there's no way if we go up, unless we absolutely get
01:07a hell of a load of players in, we're not good enough to stay in that division.
01:12Yeah definitely two points dropped at home, full city, a side you do expect to be but
01:21in their last eight games they've gone to Blackburn, Sunderland, Sheffield United and
01:26Millwall have won, they've won four games in their last eight away and gone to Bristol
01:30City and Arsene Drew, we haven't won away since November so they're doing something
01:34right on the road, but yeah it's disappointing to drop points at home to pretty much anyone.
01:40Yeah you know parts of the first half they dominated, didn't have a mountain of chances
01:43but had good ones and it always kind of felt like if they didn't take some of them they
01:47might come back to bite them on the backside and prove to be.
01:49Absolutely yeah, Swifties hit the bar second half as well, we were just in line with that
01:54hadn't we, just didn't quite feel right today, in answer to your original question, yeah
01:59probably two points dropped, but these draws are going to come back and haunt us I think.
02:04We should have been dominating the game, what we were the last 20 minutes, really dominating
02:09and actually we could have lost, they had a great chance and Fede, the goalie, didn't
02:14do a good shave, but I don't know.
02:17Yeah, yeah definitely, so you've got to take your chances, I don't think again, if you
02:21have a look at Hull's, people don't look at it, but I don't think anyone's put two goals
02:24past Hull in a while as if that was on the road, but yeah when I was having a look at
02:29it, so yeah it's a tough one, but we're in a good position still apart from today, it's
02:36just a shame because you get solid points at Leeds and Burnley but you only get a point
02:40for it, and then two today's, it's two dropped today, but we're in a good position, I think
02:46we can afford to, we're ticking along nicely, so I still think we'll make the top six, but
02:51it's going to be close, I think Blackburn have lost at home again, they're a team we're
02:54competing with, Middlesbrough have played Luton who are bottom but one, and Drew, so
03:00no one's picking up win after win or anything like that.
03:03Yeah, on the other side, that's six unbeaten now in the motorway, it's getting a little
03:06bit of rhythm, a bit of momentum, but it feels like you have to win these games, your
03:09home games, you have to win them to get into the playoffs.
03:11Yeah, I mean obviously we're without Callum today, Callum Styles who's been outstanding
03:15for us and we still have no Darnell as well, so we've had to reshuffle haven't we, and
03:20yeah it's just, like I say, nice little unbeaten run, but are these rules going to come back
03:26and bite us in the backside, who knows, we're still up there, there's still a lot of points
03:30to be gained, isn't there, and let's fingers crossed we can hang on in there and get in
03:38the playoffs at the end, but it's got to be tight because he's looking at results again
03:41today, hasn't he, and Carver had a good win and Bristol's second winning last night, it's
03:46a nail-biter, he's not going for the old ticker.
03:49And we're not winning, and why the hell do you get rid of your experienced goalie mid-season,
03:57I just cannot believe that, sell him in the season, yeah, but you don't sell him halfway
04:01through the season and put an inexperienced goalie in charge, and that's half the bloody
04:06problem, but you know, I don't know.
04:10Yeah, at home, yeah, because we've still got Watford, Derby and then Luton on the last
04:15day, but now we've got a really tough run of games because in the next five we've got
04:19to get to Norwich, Bristol and Coventry, and we've got Sunderland here and Watford's the
04:23other one, so we've got, yeah, it would have been nice to win today, I mean, we'll pick
04:27up, we're not going to go to these places and lose after, we'll lose the odd one or
04:31two, but we're not going to lose them all, but yeah, we've got some very tough games
04:35coming up, I would be happy with a draw with most of them on the road, but yeah, as I say,
04:39these home games, we must have four left and we've probably got to win three of them.
