Goal. Ball played to Andrews about 20 yards out and his low left footed shot takes a nick and goes in.

Scores a goal too.

Pretty bleak stuff for Wolves (I think this might be the last game for MM there) but a great debut for Andrews. Nice goal and was generally very good for them going forward. Wolves were so bad though.

Wants a long term deal at west brom and a great quote from him.

Andrews, who came on as a half-time substitute for the injured Paul Scharner, has admitted he had no qualms about celebrating his 84th-minute goal despite his previous allegiance to Wolves.

"I wasn't reluctant at all, not in the slightest," said Andrews on the club's official website.

"I don't feel I owe the club anything in particular. A few people have said to me since then that Robbie Keane didn't celebrate when he scored against Wolves for Villa.

"Well Robbie Keane didn't get booed every time he touched the ball or get pelters when he warmed up, so it's swings and roundabouts."

Think he's dead right, loyalty and respect to a club or set of supporters should never be unconditional.

Another goal for Andrews.

**theworm2345** · 25/02/2012, 3:53 PM

Nice little curling finish on the turn from about 12 yards out.

**Philly** · 25/02/2012, 4:21 PM

Nice finished indeed. Great to see him in form and playing in the Premiership again.

Typical irish ....aren't we ...... Keith got 11 league goals this season ...... that's outstanding coming from a midfielder. If it was gerrard or lampard, the english would be saying world class yet we irish say his goals are not important!

Fair play to him ..... hope he keep putting them in the net ...... it's great to see

In fairness, there's a big difference in quality of competition when you compare the Premiership to the Championship. Andrews has two league goals in the Premiership, not eleven. If he had eleven Premiership goals, he'd be mentioned in the same breath as Dempsey, Lampard, and Bale, all of whom have ten goals so far this season.

Nice goal nice finish, nice bit of play in the build up, nice movement, in fact nice all round in a nice kind of way.
Nice to seem him playing well. Nice Nice nice nice nice.

If you go back a page or two Charlie D was pointing out how Keith was a scorer of important goals. I was only having a joke with Charlie D, saying that he has now scored unimportant goals (including the 5th v Wolves). That's why I put the smilie up - a slight clue.

Here's the context:

He actually has 2 goal in 1.5 game as he came on as sub in one!! That's some strike rate especially when you compare it to some of our 'strikers' in the Premiership! Also he has got 6 goals in his last 6 game, that is 6 goal in 5 games in reality, taking into account substitutions, if he keeps that up he will be mentioned in the same breathe as Dempsey, Lampard, and Bale.

Very decent player is Keith. Great ball striker, great engine, great athlete, great attitude. Especially nice to see a late developer, and kudos to Hodgson.

btw I think 9 goals from midfield in half a season in an underperforming Chamionship team is very creditable. His goal in Tallinn set us on our way and had he been fit for Russia in Dublin I think we may not have been so overrun. His return v Italy in May was very welcome, and he got a great goal too. He'd have scored the winner at home to Slovakia if Cox's peripheral vision was a bit better.

Unprecedented, I think.
At least, as rare as a Keith Andrews bicycle kick goal.

**MeathDrog** · 25/02/2012, 10:19 PM

Top player.

**Sullivinho** · 25/02/2012, 11:19 PM

Articulate too, that Keith Andrews. Speaks his mind. Obviously doesn't care much for obvious football rhetoric and clich�, obviously.

**Irish_Praha** · 26/02/2012, 11:05 AM

One of WBA's last few games of the season is at home against Blackburn. After all the abuse their fans gave him in the end I would love to see him score one of his "Important" goals in that game and help get Blackburn relegated.
I'm sure he would love it too.
