  1. They're doomed

    West Brom V Southampton (15:00 GMT)

    I think West Brom are doomed in the Premier League.

    The FA Cup could be their only way out.

    Wigan did it in 2013...

  2. 'Used to great escapes'

    West Brom V Southampton (15:00 GMT)

    Michael Appleton
    Leicester City assistant manager on Football Focus

    West Brom have been used to great escapes and they are going to need another one.

    This adversity could bring them all together.

  3. Point to prove

    West Brom V Southampton (15:00 GMT)

    Alex Scott
    Arsenal Ladies & former England international on Football Focus

    Those four West Brom players have got a real point to prove today because this team need them.

  4. It's dangerous behaviour

    The fans will be calling them hooligans and it is stupidity. The players will get plenty of grief and eventually it may become a police matter.

    The most important thing to take from this is the dangerous aspect of it.

    That's dangerous behaviour.

  5. Will they play?

    West Brom v Southampton (15:00 GMT)

    So the big question before kick-off has to be: How will all of this affect performance on the pitch?

    Other questions: Were they maybe out on Thursday on the understanding that they wouldn't be playing today? Now would it look better if they did?

    In about 15 minutes we will have the Baggies line-up.

  6. 'Troubling times for West Brom'

    These truly are troubling times at West Brom. Bottom of the Premier League and seven points from safety, owner Guochuan Lai took the decision on Tuesday to sack his chairman and chief executive.

    The men responsible for the football side were untouched by Lai's actions.

    Yet within hours, four senior players - in West Brom's own words - were completely disregarding a curfew imposed by their manager.

    If the key "football man" cannot control his most experienced players' behaviour in this situation, it is difficult to envisage any outcome to this season other than West Brom being relegated.

  7. West Brom v Southampton (15:00 GMT)

    What about Pards?

    Here's what the manager had to say:

  8. West Brom v Southampton (15:00 GMT)

    On Thursday night, Gareth Barry, Jonny Evans, Jake Livermore and Boaz Myhill were on a night out in Barcelona. So far so good.

    On Friday, the four West Brom players issued an apology following allegations they stole a taxi on their adventures in the Spanish city.

    The quartet were interviewed but not arrested by police after the incident, which happened in the early hours of the morning and is being investigated by the Premier League club.

    Here's the full story.

  9. Just the two 15:00 GMT kick-offs in your FA Cup Saturday afternoon slot:

    Brighton v Coventry

    West Brom v Southampton

    But there are plenty of little sub-plots bubbling away, just count 'em..

    Shall we start with the taxi?

  10. Afternoon

    Coventry celebrateGetty Images

    Could it be? Another FA Cup shock?

    League Two Coventry have already given us one this year - they beat Stoke 2-1 in the third round back in January.

    Today they travel to a Brighton team that maybe, might, could be worrying more about Premier League survival...

    And what will the mood be like around West Brom this afternoon?

    What a week they are having...
