Championship thread 25/26! (15 Viewers)

The small club of Brum need a battering by Ipswich.

Who launches fireworks before a game

I'm in 2 minds. Don't want the favourites to win title to start with a win either. Don't want any runaway teams this year to make autos a non starter for us

Draw be best . If not Brum for me I think?!

Ipswich not too dissimilar a squad to that of the one who came here in the cup and slapped us. They’ll win the league.

 

[Ccfcisparks]

We are much more likely to be competing in and around Brum than Ipswich come the end of the season for me.

Yeah Ipswich will win the league.

 

[stupot07]

This is a tasty first 5 mins.

 

[covcity4life]

Kyogo unlucky. Great finish

 

[AFCCOVENTRY]

Calm down Goodman.

 

[Tommo1993]

Lucky. Not a chance is that a foul.

 

[stupot07]

Cannot believe the commentators are trying to say that wasn't a foul. He's jumped/barged into the man nowhere near the ball.

he jumped into his back

clear as day

 

[Marty]

This ref is dreadful.

 

[Evo1883]

Blues should be 1-0 , Ipswich looking very poor first 10

 

[David O'Day]

Kyogo unlucky. Great finish

unlucky?

Think no Delap or Hutchinson really does weaken them though

The next one but defender on attacker was a carbon copy but no foul? Looks like the standard of championship refs hasn't improved, gonna be a fun season again or should I say frustrating

 

[Ccfcisparks]

Kyogo is gonna score a hatful in this league as I originally thought.

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Seriously how do the refs get shitter ever year.

 

[andrew.roberts]

I think that the officials have forgotten that football is a contract sport.

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

The respective momentums from relegation and promotion can’t be underestimated

 

[Tommo1993]

Perhaps. But if we isolate the cup game, Delap played an ineffective cameo and Hutchinson didn’t play at all.

 

[Sky Blue Goblin]

Lampard‘s right the refs are shite

 

[David O'Day]

record number of fouls?

 

[Evo1883]

Birmingham look physically much weaker than Ipswich

 

[Briles]

15 mins played 11 freekicks

 

[Tommo1993]

I have more control of the weather than the ref has on this game.

 

[Briles]

Bloody hell Ryan Allsopp looks like he's spent the summer looking for his precious

 

[Ccfcisparks]

I have more control of the weather than the ref has on this game.

Alright chill out GIMOC

 

[Tommo1993]

Alright chill out GIMOC

Don’t insult me.

Games gone

Birmingham look physically much weaker than Ipswich

I see it the other way! Birmingham very physical and energetic in the press.
Stifling Ipswich being able to play.

 

[Skybluekyle]

Ref:

Slight knock, that's a foul

Tiny nudge in the back, that's a foul

Hint of contact...oh you better believe that's a foul

 

[stupot07]

I agree, I see it the other way too. I could see them completely bullying us.

I think birmingham are full of energy sure , not sure they can keep this press up for 90 .. Ipswich the bigger more powerful team overall

 

[covcity4life]

unlucky?

Was a harsh foul not that much contact

But as he's ex Celtic and you decided he ain't good enough I am sure you will try put him down

 

[stupot07]

I agreed they will run out of steam, the second half is going to be very open.
