Albion have dropped a place to 17th in the Championship after Eidur Gudjohnsen snatched a late point for Bolton Wanderers today.
The veteran striker's 95th minute header denied doomed Lancastrian neighbours Blackpool an improbable away win in a 1-1 draw.
The other two sides immediately below Albion missed the chance to edge above them.
Reading, requiring a home win to leapfrog Chris Hughton's side, were held to a 1-1 draw by Russell Slade's Cardiff at the Madejski Stadium.
Huddersfield, yet to visit the Amex, also needed a victory to move above Albion.
They were grateful instead for a late equaliser in a 1-1 draw at Sheffield Wednesday.
Blackburn Rovers, beaten by Albion in their last home fixture, warmed up for their FA Cup quarter-final tie at home to Liverpool by beating troubled Leeds 3-0 at Elland Road.
Rovers capitalised on a red card for Rodolph Austin against the Yorkshiremen, who are back in turmoil following the mysterious suspension of assistant head coach Steve Thompson.
