    The baggies moved from bottom of the table to top position (according to the BBC - I would have thought that AFC Bournemouth would remain top) last night. Unfortunately we drop out of automatic promotion to a play off position. If we are 3rd at the end of the season I will be both gutted, that we didn't get automatic promotion, and elated that we finished in the play off positions.

    Early days yet though.

    At 1-0 and 2-1 I was wondering whether it would be the first time a table at the start of the season had the same positions after a game(s) had been played

    We've got a superb defensive record so far this season. Hope they can keep it up.

    Surely if Bournmouth had won, they would have moved above us into 1st?

    AFC Bournemouth are always above us on alphabetical order.

    They drew 2-2 so are above us on goals scored.

    Sorry I see what you mean but when I looked on the BBC earlier in the week they had us at the top.

    I totally agree, however, the table showed Bournemouth above us before a ball was kicked yesterday because AFC Bournemouth is alphabetically above Barnsley FC.

    my original post was only a bit of fun anyway as I am sure you were aware.

    See my edit, they don't seem to be sure of the alphabet....
