Albion fans spoke to Jonny Drury after the 3-2 defeat on the road at Sheffield Wednesday.
The leaders were looking to extend their unbeaten league run to eight games - but found themselves 2-0 down inside 25 minutes through a Darnell Furlong own goal and a Josh Windass header.
Josh Maja pulled on back before it looked as though Alex Mowatt had rescued a point in the 84th minute.
But immediately Wednesday went back in front and that is how it stayed.

00:00Kyle, there seems to be something about Hillsborough that Albion don't really like, just sum up
00:11what you've seen today.
00:12Well, it's a good job we can send them out to the pass, but it's all too flat, too flat,
00:13way too flat.
00:14I don't know, it's just a feeling when you come here that it's hard for us to do anything
00:15decent.
00:16We don't seem to do too well in Sheffield, do we, these days.
00:17It's a tale of two halves, very much so.
00:18First half, it's a bit of a mess.
00:19Second half, it's a bit of a mess.
00:20Third half, it's a bit of a mess.
00:21Fourth half, it's a bit of a mess.
00:22Fifth half, it's a bit of a mess.
00:23Sixth half, it's a bit of a mess.
00:24Seventh half, it's a bit of a mess.
00:25Second half, it's a bit of a mess.
00:26Third half, it's a bit of a mess.
00:27Fourth half, it's a bit of a mess.
00:28Fifth half, it's a bit of a mess.
00:29Sixth half, it's a bit of a mess.
00:30Seventh half, it's a bit of a mess.
00:31Eighth half, it's a bit of a mess.
00:32Ninth half, it's a bit of a mess.
00:33Tenth half, it's a bit of a mess.
00:34Eleventh half, it's a bit of a mess.
00:35Twelfth half, it's a bit of a mess.
00:36Twelfth half, it's a bit of a mess.
00:37Twelfth half, it's a bit of a mess.
00:38Twentieth half, it's a bit of a mess.
00:39Twentieth half, it's a bit of a mess.
00:41Got two goals.
00:42Thought we were going to go home with finally something from Sheffield.
00:46And then a slight lapse in concentration in that back line.
00:48And they've just gone and nicked it from us.
00:50I don't think many people actually caught that goal, to be honest.
00:53Because they were too busy celebrating the equaliser.
00:55But this is one of them games.
00:57We haven't had one in a while that's been that late and that excruciating to see, really.
01:03It's a tough one to take.
01:04But luckily, we've only got about three or four days now, isn't that?
01:08Until we play Middlesbrough next.
01:09So, fingers crossed, we can correct this.
01:12And bounce back with three points, hopefully.
01:15You know, we had Moat and Mulumby couldn't start today.
01:18Had Knox in the week, or Knox in training.
01:20Diakite come in, just looked a bit fractured in that midfield.
01:23We kind of didn't get to grips with the game in the first half.
01:25Yeah, I think we were saying it up there.
01:27It's a proper championship clump.
01:29You need a few players that are used to playing against these sort of teams to hold the ball well.
01:35Diakite didn't play very well.
01:38But, I don't know, I guess once or next week, isn't it?
01:42I think he could have made changes slightly earlier, but he can't really do much.
01:46He's working with injuries.
01:47I think Carlos knows better than anyone else does about the side he's got at his disposal.
01:51I think Diakite looks a little bit ropey.
01:53I think he still needs a bit of time to kind of get into the mix of this Albion side,
01:56because he looked very lacklustre today.
01:58It was probably one of the reasons that we conceded one of them goals in the first half.
02:01He was quite off the pace.
02:03But in the second half, like I said, we seemed to pick it up.
02:06It's just absolutely gutting to take, really.
02:08Absolutely gut-wrenching.
02:10Is it kind of a bit of a reality check?
02:13Things have gone so well, five wins from six.
02:15Is it a bit like, back down to earth, this is the championship, this is going to happen?
02:18The championship's never easy, is it?
02:20Even though they're near the bottom, we're near the top.
02:22Every game's a bit of a sludge at times.
02:24But, I don't know, I feel like all the goals were a bit poor.
02:28It could have gone either way.
02:30We didn't really come out of second gear today.
02:33Before we went into this game, it's a tough place to go, Hillsborough.
02:35It's a good, good stadium.
02:36They've got great fans.
02:37They're going to get on you straight away.
02:39I mean, we saw that on the pitch as well.
02:40It seemed that the fan base were kind of sucking the ball into the goal for them, very much so.
02:46And they played off scraps.
02:47And it worked for them, really, didn't it?
02:50But, like I say, it's just gutting to take,
02:52because I don't think it was a bad performance, really, as a team on the whole.
02:56But it's just one of them.
02:58We're not going to win every game.
02:59We're not going to be Leicester City like last season.
03:01We've got to take bumps on the road.
03:02This is one of them bumps.
03:03And we will bounce back, I think, next week against Middlesbrough.
03:07Fingers crossed.
