Come on you Baggies, do it.
But first, we need to scalp Liverpool.

Burnley have played a game more than us and Brighton, and two games more than Newcastle, and we still have a 6-pointer to play against them. No idea how you can rule them out.
Burnley are in form and look like they can get points from most games. However, Newcastle and Brighton do not.

Why did people want west brom to win? They win one more and they're not far off us and would then be competing with better ability to score goals for the one place we're all already fighting for. I want teams around us especially Newcastle and West brom to play out draws.

Because there is absolutely zero chance of West Brom staying up. Perhaps there's a slim chance of them catching us, as you say, but if that happens it will just mean they finish 18th and we finish 19th, which is an irrelevance.
Our targets must be the teams just above us. If we are worried about WBA we are lost anyway. I want West Brom to beat Newcastle to make that target easier. Then, bring on Liverpool!
In a nutshell with no holds barred and in the cold light of day when everything is said and done after chewing over the fat, one way or another West Bromwich Albion have to beat Newcastle United today.
There are very few teams West Brom can defeat unless they have incredibly good fortune - Newcastle is one of them perhaps, especially as there is unrest in the camp. And we need teams to be in the mix....
We will see today how well Newcastle are coping with their off field problems
If we perform well in the next eleven games we have a chance. I don't want to be reliant on other teams failings. We have a good side and hopefully. if we stay up, the Khan's will sanction converting some of the loans into purchases. Then we can prepare well for next season.
I usually hope for a draw when our relegation rivals meet
Today however I am hoping Big Sam can engineer a good win for West Brom and if we could then miraculously get a win a Anfield things would be looking so much better for us.
WBAs defence looks so so so slow.
Good thing ASM and Wilson aren't there.

We have to be reliant on other clubs failings, we are currently behind them on points. We could win all our remaining matches but if others do too,we will still be down.

you do know we have to play Burnley and Newcastle?
Half time West Brom 0 - Newcastle 0 with the Baggies playing nice football and looking the better team. No sign of Big Sam's long ball game

I'm actually surprised at the threat both teams are posing to be honest.
Newcastle had a couple of outnumber situations on the break that they should have done better on, and one where Joelinton probably should have taken on the shot (but tried unsuccessfully to cross to an unmarked Fraser).
WBA have looked more and more assured the longer the half has gone on though, and like you say, probably the better side.
I reckon there's definitely a goal or two in this one.

No, if we won all eleven games and got to 56 points, I think it would be mathematically impossible for us not to finish ahead of at least three teams, given that teams must drop points playing against each other, and we would have taken points off Burnley and Newcastle. I agree that the worse certain other teams perform, the lower the target for survival becomes, but at the moment, our fate is in our own hands.
West Brom are worse in front of goal than we are. Newcastle are playing for a point. Wouldn't surprise me if they got a goal on the break.
10 mins for Brom to get the winner
Both useless teams and both should go down
Championship plus standard today.
That'll do.
Two awful teams. Newcastle have offered nothing here. Hard to see them winning many games, playing like that.
So Newcastle won a point, we are now four points behind them. We really need to get something now.

Not really.
I think a draw is the best result for us - keeps West Brom 5 points behind us.
It is only important that Newcastle don't get win games against the weaker sides - they are likely to lose all their games against the better teams
Newcastle only take a point in one of their 'easier' matches. Definitely a missed opportunity for them T pull clear of us.
Both dire teams who should be going down and probably would be if it weren't for the ridiculous number of terrible refereeing decisions we've suffered this season.
Have given everything for Sam tonight and they are going to get another three points. They are going to go down fighting.
Edit : 2-2 in the 92nd minute. Didn't see that coming.
