Midfielder wants points against Blackpool, Blackburn and Wigan James Morrison says Albion have the perfect opportunity to climb back up the league in the next three games. The Baggies face Blackpool and Wigan at home with a game away at Blackburn sandwiched in the next three weeks. Despite a record-breaking start to a Premier League season, Albion now find themselves in a relegation scrap after taking just seven points from possible 36. "We just wanted to get a result because we're on a slippery slope but Saturday wasn't us and we're disappointed," said the Scotland international. "We haven't won in six games and we're struggling in the league so our confidence is low - it's got to be. "We wanted to go to Reading and do well and we played a strongish team and the lads had all played the four games in eight days so I think the lads felt it. "We've got a few days off now to forget about it because we've got a massive game against Blackpool coming up. "We have highlighted how big it's going to be and how big the next month is going to be - and we've just got to try to put this last month behind us. "We've said we've got to put this behind us quickly because we know how big this Blackpool game is. "And if we get three points from it it would put all of these defeats out of the window. "If you look at the fixtures, Blackpool, Blackburn and Wigan are all teams that are going to be around us and they are all winning games, as are all the teams around us. "We're looking at that and thinking we could get nine points from these three games."
