Megson: Win Would Have Given Us Belief

Last updated : 15 August 2004 By Sam
The Baggies boss believed that had the side managed to hold out for all three points at Ewood Park it would have given the players great belief in themselves as they look to hold on to their Premiership status this season.

"It is a shame, because we were close to getting three points today and we would have got a massive amount of belief if we had done that," he said after the 1-1 draw.

"I thought there was a bit of a lack of belief in wanting to sit and hang on for 1-0.

"We could have pushed on and we did have opportunities to push on and score the goal which would have won the game.

"In the end they had four centre-forwards on the pitch and were putting us under a great deal of pressure."
