Albion boss Gary Megson admitted the massive gulf in class told on his team in the end, but blasted his defence for letting their valuable lead slip inside a minute.
But Albion grabbed their seventh minute lead out of nothing when Koumas - by far the Baggies' most creative influence - latched on to a misplaced pass from Rio Ferdinand and bore down on the United goal before unleashing a right-foot shot which beat Fabien Barthez on his right-hand post.
Albion went on to enjoy arguably their best spell of the game but they failed to make a breakthrough and were inevitably punished for it.

 West Bromwich Albion (A)
No idea how WBA played as an attacking force in the second half, but thankfully Dalts regained the touch lacking vs Norwich and turned their full back inside out for the first goal and then relieved the pressure with a great second.
West Brom: Miller, McDermott, Dobson (Evans 76), Sneekes, Burgess, Mardon, Butler, Hamilton, Taylor (Hughes 45), Hunt, Kilbane (Smith 68).
From then on it became impossible to see what was going on at the other end of the pitch - fortunately, Town were attacking toward us in the second half.

 Newcastle United Football Club - Match reports - West Brom (h) CC3
Albion sold 2,000 of their allotted 3,000 places but many of their fans missed the kickoff due to traffic problems on the A1 in Yorkshire.
All Albion had to do was sit tight and soak up the pressure which they were doing with ever increasing ease and take us to penalties, which the whole football world must know by now we never win.
His pace was never going to take him clear of the Albion defence but he rendered them utterly useless by cutting inside and across the box and then grazed the far post with Hoult well beaten.

 Goal.com - West Bromwich Albion
West Brom turned professional in 1885 and by the end of the 1885-86 season had reached their first FA Cup Final.
Albion thus acquired the nickname the Throstles, and for many years had their own bird in a cage at the Hawthorns.
They moved between First and Second Divisions before the First World War but on the peactime resumption of League football Albion won the championship for the first (and so far only) time in their history.

 West Bromwich Albion
Scott Dobie's header from a free kick shortly after an hour, the young forward's ninth goal in 11 matches, gave Albion their seventh win in eight games and took them to third.
They look solid bets for a playoff place, but manager Gary Megson must be concerned about the lack of chances they created with the abundant possession won by their snapping midfielders.
Larus Sigurdsson almost surprised Nik Michopoulos in the Burnley goal with a cross that threatened to drift under the bar, but the best chance fell to Dobie.

It was always Albion who were in charge but they fell behind against the run of play in the 23rd minute when they were punished for slack defending.
After the break Albion continued to dominate with striker Bob Taylor wasting one golden opportunity when he fired his shot high from only 10 yards on the hour.
Michopoulos was forced to bow out of the action in the 15th minute with a damaged ankle and former Albion keeper Crichton took over between the posts.

 Tims 92- West Bromwich Albion
For me that ground is The Hawthorns, home of West Bromwich Albion.
With Wolves and Albion missing each other through relegation and promotion for both teams, it hasn’t been possible to get it on the list for the past few years, so a neutral visit may be in order at some time in the future.
I'm sure everyone who hasn’t completed the 92 yet, has at least one ground that by now they really should have gone to, be it for the amount of times you’ve played a team, rivalry, or it being nearby.

If Albion continue the very poor form we've seen since the final weeks of Gary Megson's tenure as manager, there will be little chance for us to make history.
Albion must improve when the transfer window opens in a week's time.
I've seen us in some bad times like losing at Hartlepool, throwing away two goal leads at Exeter and Wycombe, losing to Woking, the list is endless and no disrespect but we should never in a million years be in the same league as them, i know that sounds arrogant.
