At West Brom. Just had a feeling even before the game we were going to win 3-2 after going 2-0 down first... Obviously it wasn't to be (even though we went 2-0 down ok!!)!
I believe the last time we went 2 or more goals down (2-0, 3-0, 3-1 etc) in a league match to comeback and win was, quite ridiculously, the 10th of October 1970 Vs Portsmouth (H)!!!
That was the last in a run of 4 remarkable games in which we came back in such a fashion in 3 of them (the other 2 wins were QPR (H) 6-2 & Cardiff (A) 4-3) - the other game of the 4 we lost 3-2 away to Leicester.
So over the years, I've seen us on the wrong end of similar comebacks on more than 1 occasion, but (Steaua in the cup aside) I've still never seen us win a league game from 2 goals behind (and I'm 40)... Madness!
