The great escape. Sadly we didn't build upon it andwent down the following season.

There are three moments in football that gave me goosebumps: United in '99 winning the Champions League (I'm a United fan), the first 4-3 Liverpool over Newcastle, and WBA staying up. It's why we watch sport.

Best day ever! Even the Pompey fans were cheering as it meant Southampton went down (hence the noise level).

I can't help but cry rewatching this, I remember it being close to impossible to get a ticket and my Dad had gone to 60/70% of the home games that season with my Brother. We were sat around the radio in the kitchen listening to the commentary. I was 7 at the time and It was the first time I'd seen my dad cry, it's the moment I fell in love with football and I've maybe rewatched this 15+ times

AMAZING DAY. Only time I've cried at the football. It's not been all easy being an Albion fan the last 10 years but a day like that makes you realise why its so special. West Bromwich Albion - greatest football club in the world.

My best memory as a Baggie. We played some great football the following couple of seasons as well. I hope we can get a bit of flare back into our play and spend a bit of money. Not often I'm jealous of the Wolves, but I'd like to see us build an exciting squad like they have
@Niner-nw9wn5 жыл бұрын
Still amazing to watch all these years later.. remember when the first goal went in and going absolutely crazy. Then when the other game went to 2-2... One of my best memories in 25 years of being a baggies fan .

Funny how some Chelsea and City “fans” complain about 2nd place and an FA Cup, yet WBA fans celebrate staying up like they’ve just won the UCL. These are proper football fans

State of the comments on this. For the record it’s an absolute portsMYTH that this result sent Southampton down. They had to beat Man United and didn’t, that was the only result that mattered to them. Pompey losing to West Brom actually sent Crystal Palace down. Go look at the final league table if you don’t believe me.
