When was the last time the Albion won a game they should have lost?

[Icy Gull]

It seems we never get "lucky" wins these days. Am I wrong?

I am desperately hoping that Saturday's game may be the one

I don't think we deserved a win against Burton.

I don't think we deserved a win against Burton.

I'd have to disagree with you there ...and we definitely didn't deserve to lose

Swindon in the playoffs 2004??


We only seem to win games we should've drawn, draw in games we should've lost, and were loose in games we should have won.

I don't think we deserved to lose but the game really wasn't up to much and we only snatched it at the end with a penalty.

Dodgy penalty corrected by their striker f**king it right up. Definitely didn't deserve to lose that game.

I thought we got lucky against Forest away last season.

Nigel Clough disagrees: "They all battled away. I can't stress enough how incredible the effort was, to get to that point in the game without conceding."

There was the win against Derby at the Amex a couple of seasons ago that immediately springs to mind

Home vs Southampton, Jan 2012; injury crisis and playing the league leaders?

Played us off the park and somehow we got a 2-0 win, beginning of the end for McClaren

Not a win, but i don't think we deserved a draw against Derby at home last season from that late Wilson goal IMO

Charlton last year when we were 2-0 down at half time having been totally outplayed (should have been at least 4-0) and scraped a 3-2 win.

I feel we were the best team in the division last season, which makes it pretty tricky to win a game you should lose. Particularly when your weak point is your strikers - we don't so often play badly then have a striker win it for us.

We were hanging on for a draw before winning away at Fulham last season.

I guess many of us are a little biased too, so it's difficult to appreciate when we've got lucky.

Didn't we win 3-0? How's that possible if we deserved to lose?

Excellent call, that was daylight robbery (at night), but it was a long time ago and although I don't get to every game I can't recall one since.

True, under CH we have had very few undeserved wins and very few games where we could complain about drawing or losing. When Poyet was manager there were loads of games we drew that we should have won and also quite a few that we lost that we should have drawn or won, but again very few we won that we shouldn't have.

It could of course be that I AM totally biased, but I like to think not.

Forest away last season...

 

[Sheebo]

Forest away last season we were a bit lucky. Although not sure we deserved to lose it. So yes, Swindon away in the play offs is the next one I think of...

EDIT - ah yes that Derby home game season before last
