00:00It started with that defeat at Sheffield Wednesday, the result didn't matter that day because

00:15of the death of Mark Townsend and we still send our condolences to his family. I think

00:19it was a funeral on Friday, which is a very good tear-out for an Albion fan. They went

00:24to Sheffield Wednesday and people say, someone said to me the other day, I had a tweet and

00:29if this was Steve Bruce you'd be hammering him, which I kind of laughed at, which is

00:34far from the case. But if you look at the results in isolation, they went to Sheffield

00:39Wednesday, he played two new signings in Tenton midfield and just got overrun in the first

00:44half. There was two mistakes at the back as well, which led to the two goals. He changed

00:49it, he brought Alex Moher on, who was Albion's best player, obviously he'd been out because

00:53of injury, come back on, changed the game, got back to 2-2 and then Albion were just

00:58some kamikaze defending all over the place at the back, lost 3-2. Middlesbrough, I'd

01:01have said Middlesbrough was probably the only game out of the four, out of the six, sorry,

01:05that Albion deserved to lose. I thought they didn't turn up that night. Millwall, you could

01:10put that one on the manager maybe. Millwall came and just put about eight buses in front

01:14of the goal, Albion just didn't have an answer. They maybe could have changed system and tried

01:18something different. So you could say that, you know, sits at the manager's door. Oxford,

01:23you know, not the best, the game's got themselves in front. We've kind of referenced this, he

01:27made changes that kind of changed the tempo of the game, you know, maybe made too many

01:31changes. But there were parts of the game down the other end where Albion got into really

01:38good positions, the final ball wasn't good enough, which is, you know, that's not down

01:41to the manager, that's down to the application and the quality of the players. You know,

01:45Blackburn, they've had two good chances and they should have had a penalty. You know,

01:49it wasn't the best game, but Blackburn didn't really create anything, even though the game

01:53wasn't the most exciting. And then Cardiff, I thought Albion played really well, I thought

01:56they played some great stuff and they battered them. So if you look at them in those, you

02:01know, in those games individually, you know, there's not, there's not a lot wrong. And

02:06we've had questions of what does he need to do to change it? Yeah, he can do some things

02:09to change it and we'll come on to it. But I think, you know, getting really irate and

02:14saying things are so dire and dull, you know, you know, I started watching Albion when Brian

02:19Little was a manager and I sat through the Tony Pulis area, a few things, go back to

02:24them, go and watch some videos of them if you want. And there is, like you said there,

02:27you know, I think you stuck up for me in Cockney saying we have been critical of Corbran. And

02:31you have got to be appreciative of the fans' opinion because everyone has an opinion. Absolutely.

02:36But I just think to be putting all this on Corbran is an easy cop out because it's not,

02:42you know, players aren't performing at the levels they should be.
