It’s time for Monday Night Football to bedazzle our television screens once more as we look forward to Blackpool hosting West Brom. Not many people would have expected that sentiment even at the beginning of the season, but this has the making of a great game, and if the past is any indication we’ll be in for a hum dinger of a game as the two respective fixtures last season saw 10 goals in total.

Nil-nil is clearly on the cards then now that’s jinxed, and the team news let’s us know that Charlie Adam has recovered from his stitched up ankle to pass muster for Blackpool while Elliot Grandin comes in for Marlon Harewood. On the back of his two goal haul at Leicester (damn him), Simon Cox comes in with Pablo Ibanez for the injured duo of James Morrison and Jonas Olsson for the traveling West Brom. Peter Odemwingie is nowhere to be seen, still…

Blackpool XI: Gilks; Eardley, Evatt, Cathcart, Crainey; Vaughan, Adam, Grandin; Taylor-Fletcher, Varney, Campbell

West Brom XI: Carson; Jara, Tamas, Ibanez, Shorey; Scharner, Mulumbu; Brunt, Cox, Thomas; Fortuné

If you’re looking for some matchday banter then join our floodlight Dugout Discussion as West Brom look to break into the Champions League places (not a typo) and Blackpool look for their first home victory of the season.

          Oh for fcucks sake! Just when I thought a nice clean sheet was coming my way it gets stolen off me again, a la Simpson! Unless WBA score again thus winning me a tidy pile I will be rather miffled. Cuuuuuuuuants!
          He deserved a goal though, been good today.

    Jara for 3 bonus.

    In all seriousness, the commentators are cringeworthy. Said Dorrans was offside earlier when it was clearly Shorey and just said it was Brunt on a run when it was Dorrans.

      No he won't

      He's been all right but as an attacking player in a 9 vs 11 game you just know he won't have had the chances to do enough.
