At times like this you need some old friends, though some might say what's coming next is the ghosts of Tony's Past.

Darren Moore and the boys from the Brom are next to visit the Riverside and are said to be putting together a mysterious plot to scare the living daylights out of the Boro boys. They even got ex-boss 'Hair Island' McClaren involved, who let them put 7 past his QPR side last time out.

We won't fall for that though, we've got the gang of Mystery Inc. on our side and Hegazi, Brunt, Johnstone and Barry have already been unmasked.

We haven't beaten West Brom in the league since a 2-0 away win at the Hawthornes and even further back since a home win, a game where Szilard Nemeth had an absolute worldy and should have had a hat-trick in a 4-0 win at the Riverside. But I think it's fair to say:

Questions:

What's your expected line-up and who would you pick?

What's the score going to be?

Do you think Darren Moore can make it as a successful manager?

Which West Brom player do you think would make the most convincing Scooby Doo monster?

Who's your favourite Bond? If it's not Roger Moore, why are you wrong?

Excellent yet again Wilson. Same line up for me. A 2-0 win for Boro. Moore has given himself every chance of becoming a successful manager. He seems to be a good bloke so I hope he does. Pierce Brosnan for me LOL

Stick with a winning team

2-0

Seems to run on emotions. Will cost him at the very top

Got to be rubber face Dwight Gayle you can’t tell me that’s not a mask

Daniel Craig (Would have been Sean Connery, but he was a bit rapey)

These match day intros are becoming legendary Wilson, great fun. I had a day out at the Hawthorns on Saturday, and it was a pretty good pick if you like goals being banged in. First of all, yes Albion scored 7 goals but, oh dear me, that QPR team in the second half ! The first 45 minutes was pretty even but once the third goal went in Rangers just went to pieces, it was quite frankly embarrassing and I felt sorry for Steve McLaren having to stand there and watch it. Are Albion a good team, yes they are, but not that good, and we will not give them the space that Rangers did. Albion have developed a system of Philips, Barnes, Gayle and Rodriguez all interchanging and if allowed they can cause havoc, with Phillips especially playing the best football of his career. Gayle looks for the penalty every time he gets near the box and we are going to have to be very careful around him, thank goodness Leadbitter is not playing. Albion will not change their system away from home, which will leave their defence exposed at times as none of their defenders fill me with confidence and we will get chances. This should be a great game to watch with both sides going for it and the outcome will depend on us stopping them getting behind our defence, so will Pulis alter his new wing back strategy to compensate. Not a lot of love for Pulis a***st the Albion fans  so the game might have an extra edge to it. I would love to see Darren Moore be a success as he is like a breath of fresh air after Pulis and Pardew. The first big test this for Boro against one of the teams I expect to be pushing for the top two spots along with Villa and Leeds, I predict a 2 - 2 draw, with at least one of their goals coming from a Gayle induced penalty.

in spite of thier recent goal spree and us knocking a few in ..i can see this being a 0-0 .

 

I was at our 0-0 at their place in the premier league. The most depressed by 90 mins of football I’ve ever seen. And I’ve lived in Scotland for years before :s

Besic sounds like he's available for tomorrow, says he's fit and ready. Does he go straight in the squad for you? Almost seems like a daft question because I bet I know who people will say but who does he replace in the squad?
