Alan Pardew has called on everyone at West Brom to stick together and provide a unified front as the club look to avoid relegation.

"The mood of our stadium next week can only be one thing for us and hopefully the fans will stay with us," he said, referencing the game against Leicester. 

"Although 30,000 of our fans were not at Watford because it was an away game - we appreciate the 2,000 that travelled - they have to come in a positive mode to The Hawthorns for us because that is the only chance we have got.

"The only chance we have got is to stick together and I said that to the players afterwards. So, hopefully our fans stay with us and next week we reward them with a win."

The former Newcastle manager thought his side were unlucky to lose to Watford after Troy Deeney scored a late winner and he still believes West Brom have it in them to turn the season around

"It is a process of staying true to your profession and that is what I will do and I hope my players do the same," he continued. "We will go to work next week to try and get ourselves a win and that is all we can do.

"In terms of building on that performance, there is something there from the game against Watford to build on."

West Brom are eight points from safety and have only won one game since Pardew replaced Tony Pulis.
