The last time I went to the Hawthorns was when Marvin Brown scored in a 1-1 draw......must be around 20 years ago. I was in one of the side stands and had a clear view of the Baggies fans behind the goal when suddenly a mass of City fans rushed in from the left and a huge brawl broke out...... Who on earth allowed that to happen? There’s definately a history between the two ‘firms’ but thankfully the police have much more control these days. Probably their idea it should be a midweek game.

Only ever went once early 90's I think when Tinnion scored the winner in a 1-0 win, we were battered most of the game! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We’ve beaten them 14 times and 15 games have been drawn. We drew our last match at the Hawthorns in the FA Cup and we won our last league match against them (at Ashton Gate) Although you do need to go back to 1993 (only 5 games since) since our last away win there.

We haven’t drawn 1-1 at the Hawthorns since 1976. I think you mean the 2-2 draw in 1999. I don’t remember Marvin Brown scoring, but you could be right.

Gifford Posted September 4, 2018 Report Share Posted September 4, 2018 11 hours ago, pillred said: think this red button feature is going to seriously impact on away attendances, especially midweek. Clubs need to take note and offer cheaper tickets. WBA and especially Wigan tickets seem reasonably priced but I can see clubs that charge over £35 for a midweek ticket see their away attendances suffer greatly.

Nuno Gomes Posted September 4, 2018 Report Share Posted September 4, 2018 Can’t remember the exact year but in the 70s travelled up on the Saturday in a car with no radio. Had the worse fish and chips ever (the fish was microwaved before it was served), wondered why it was so quiet only to find out the game had been postponed!

MurrayLives Posted September 4, 2018 Report Share Posted September 4, 2018 Booked my train ticket for this weeks ago thinking a night in a hotel in Birmingham would be reasonably priced midweek - I was wrong.

Yes was there for that. We had bad injuries to Aaron Brown and Ivan Testimitanu that day so loads of injury time. Heart breaking feeling when they got that late equaliser! Cracking bit of off the field action at half time too with City fans ripping up the segregation netting to get to the Baggies fans after loads of first half verbals.

I'm sure we had them the following year on Boxing Day too when we lost 1-0 after Keith Welch totally missed his kick out from a Stuart Monroe back pass.
