Test of EFL bottle here. Some of our fans’ claims for bans since the opening day have been ridiculous, but this fits the description. If they are serious about stamping out cheating he has to be punished. If not, it proves Heggebø’s ban was just a reaction to the media storm #wba
I also asked James Morrison for his thoughts on Southampton’s James Bree going down and holding his head when #WBA were attacking, and then immediately getting up when the ref stopped the game.
Deception of a match official, anyone?? 🤔
If you’re arriving in the 5-10 mins before kick off, remember it may be silence or the Last Post inside. #wba
In case you missed it: tomorrow's fixture will feature a number of Remembrance Day activities.
Let's all enjoy the game together and use it as a poignant opportunity to remember the fallen.

Literally every PL game has someone posting confidently about poor officiating… while only serving to spectacularly highlight their own total lack of knowledge of the LOTG.
The replies saying “the free kick went backwards” are just as bad.
Download IFAB and learn them FFS 🤡
Just to highlight how fucking poor this Premier League refereeing is…
Jarred Gillett gives Newcastle offside, yet Aston Villa take the resulting free kick INSIDE the Newcastle half, exactly where the linesman is indicating the offside occurred.
And this is in the build-up to Villa’s goal.
Can someone explain how an offside offence in Villa’s half results in a free kick for Villa in Newcastle’s half? Make that make fucking sense. 🤦♂️

There should be no doubt, but lots are too young to appreciate his first spell.
If you only know his second spell and think he deserves stick, please remember the shambles he worked under soon became evident.
He’s a wonderful man, and a legend to many of your fellow fans #wba
I hope Tony Mowbray gets a good reception. The second spell didn’t work out, but the first will live long in the memory of Albion fans.
There’s also a bit of a positive update on Mikey Johnston in the pre-match interview. Link below to #WBA page on BBC Sounds!
First game back and here we are again already with the seemingly endless drive to get VAR in the Championship.
With the utmost respect… just fuck right off.
Shocker of a decision. There will be calls for VAR in the Championship after that. West Ham’s Tomas Soucek puts in the perfect sliding challenge, stretching out his right foot to nudge the ball away from QPR’s Paul Smyth. Brilliant interception, played the ball, outside the box anyway, ridiculously punished with a penalty. West Ham been poor, but that was an even poorer decision. #WHUQPR
Gez is a brilliant commentator, but this is pure football porn without.
Thud of the strike… sound of the net… floodlights… G&Y stripes… shirt sleeved away end going mental.
Imagine the scenes if Barnes had scored just after! #wba
Change it in Corporate, not in the stands.
Everybody knows what will happen when idiots are given the ambition in life of seeing their pint flying on a viral #scenes clip, and it will kick off in grounds when people get doused.
Feels like it’s being deliberately set up to fail.
Dream job for a boyhood Preston fan.
Robbie Keane is in the frame for the Preston North End vacancy
Not really the statement signing I expected if true
