Are West Brom going to bottle their position in the top-two?
Yes
No
With West Brom this season fighting for automatic promotion, a number of supporters on social media were surprised that the Baggies have made little improvement this campaign despite a blistering start to the year which had many fans and pundits believing that Bilic and his squad will go all the way to the Championship title.
Here’s what a few West Brom fans had to say about the stats on Twitter…
Yep, questions to be answered

Standard Bilic. Good start followed by pure ineptitude. Same everywhere’s he’s been. I’d give him a few more matches to turn it around. If it carries on we need someone to salvage the season.
