 | We will know a lot about Wolves and they will know a lot about us Tony Mowbray on the play-offs |
West Brom boss Tony Mowbray is looking forward to meeting Black Country rivals Wolves in the play-offs after the Baggies thrashed Barnsley 7-0. "We have now built up some momentum to take into next weekend," he said.
"We will know a lot about Wolves and they will know a lot about us so games
like that can be cagey affairs.
"Wolves will go into it in a confident mood as well after their great result at Leicester. But over two games the better team should come through."
However, he warned: "We have to stay very, very focused. We now have a cup tie to play over two legs.
"I have been in three losing play-off teams at Ipswich and it is not a nice feeling when the second game finishes and that is the end of your season."
Barnsley manager Simon Davey was disappointed at the margin of the scoreline - but preferred to reflect on their record over the whole season.
"It has been a fantastic achievement to stay in the Championship," he said.
"I don't want to dampen anything for what they have achieved. But there is a disappointment to be beaten by seven.
"It's lucky we didn't have to come here and get a point as West Brom could have had more goals and could do that at any stage to any team in this division."
