Friday evening’s trip to Bramall Lane to face fellow promotion hopefuls Sheffield United went very well for West Bromwich Albion.
Having fallen behind in the game with only 12 minutes played, head coach Darren Moore’s side grew into the match and efforts from Gareth Barry and Kieran Gibbs turned the match in our favour and come the fulltime whistle, all three points were ours as we jumped above the opposition in the second tier table to take third place.
With a number of positives to come from the tie, on loan Leicester City youngster Harvey Barnes stood out once again for us and the 21-year-old again took to social media in the aftermath of the game to send fans his own message.
3 more points on the road @WBA !!! ????⚪️????

It might have been a simple message, but he’s already firmly established himself as a fan favourite at the club and fans were quick to praise the young lad once again following his own performance on the night.
