Kyle Bartley admitted his Albion teammates were left frustrated following Saturday’s 1-1 draw against Hull City - but said they must now look forward with “another point on the board”.
Abu Kamara’s equaliser cancelled out an excellent Isaac Price strike to ensure the Sky Bet Championship spoils were shared between the Baggies and the Tigers.
The centre back confessed the dressing room was disappointed having not won a game they were leading, though did say they will take consolation in extending their unbeaten six-game run.
And he also promised they’ll use the next two weeks to regroup, train well and go again for the final seven games.
“We’re a little bit frustrated,” Bartley told WBA TV. “That free-flowing, attacking form that we’ve maybe seen under Tony (Mowbray), I don’t think we got going.
“Fair play to Hull. They set up well and made it hard for us. They came and they frustrated us.
“It is about kind of taking those half-chances, because against teams like that, you’re not going to get too many.
“Going 1-0 up, we will be disappointed not to take the three points. But, ultimately, it’s another point on the board and we’ll move on.
“It was a fantastic goal (from Price). I think Pricey, since he’s come in, he’s done absolutely unbelievable. Today he’s been asked to play a position he’s not used to. But he did really well and I think he’ll be pleased going into the international break.
“Six games unbeaten, it’s really hard to do in this league. We’ve had some really tough fixtures as well. Hopefully we can pick up a few more wins after the international break and cement our place in the top six.
“When you get to the closing stages of a season, every game is difficult. You might look at Hull at home on paper and think you should get three points. But we saw they went out there and gave it everything, set up really well, and made it difficult for us to get the win.
“The break now is a good chance to give everyone a bit of a rest. It’s been a difficult week. And it gives Tony (Mowbray) a chance to do some training and get his ideas across - because since he has come in there have been a lot of games and not a lot of time on the grass.
“I think after the international break you’ll see us come out and deliver a good performance away at Norwich.”
