'I don't drop goalkeepers for one mistake' - Mowbray

Joe Wildsmith joined West Brom from Derby in July

West Bromwich Albion will not be changing goalkeepers anytime soon, says boss Tony Mowbray.

It follows Joe WIldsmith's error which led to Burnley's equaliser in their 1-1 draw in the Championship on Tuesday night.

"He's allowed a mistake every now and then, all goalies are," Mowbray told BBC Radio WM.

"It's a frustrating goal for him because it's not a blistering shot he fumbled out, it sort of spilled out of his hands and the lad was there on the spot."

Wildsmith took over the number one spot from Alex Palmer who joined Ipswich Town in January and has kept two clean sheets in seven league outings.

"I'm happy with the goalkeeper - disappointed for him of course but he's done exceptionally well," added Mowbray.

"I'm of the opinion you've got to give goalkeepers a soft one every now and then as long as it's not every week as then you can make a choice and change goalkeepers.

"But that's not something I do as a manager for the last 20 odd years - if a goalkeeper makes a mistake that costs us a goal, getting dropped? I don't think that's going to happen."
