Gold expects massive reaction against West Brom
The co chairman is just about over the Watford defeat but clearly hopes the players aren’t and are ready to take their anger out in full on the Baggies.
Speaking exclusively to ClaretandHugh he said: “There are lessons in life and then there are very very harsh lessons. We had one last week and I believe the players will have taken it very much to heart. There should be a massive reaction.
“If we are a good team – and I believe we are – we should be getting a win at West Brom today. That’s me being optimistic particularly as I believe we have added very good players to last season’s squad.
“Slaven mentioned this morning that maybe we have been in a comfort zone and that could be the case and although this is a tough place to come to we were bitten on the bum very badly last weekend and the boys will be determined to put things right.
“We know they are well organised and a team that’s determined not to concede but I’m sure Slaven will go for it. We need a result to get things genuinely started.”
