Nice one!

Nothing better than winning an early kick off with a convincing performance. Thought JDS was excellent together with Milan & Torp. Just watched their managers interview, wow, even the Blues fans are cringing at his comments. Enjoy the rest of your weekend everyone. PUSB

So sour grapes then

I thought Dykes up front was really poor for them. Just looked like he was there to rough up our centre backs

He looked so slow and cumbersome

You just gotta love singers corner and the sky blue Army, " all that money and your f****** shit"

What threat ? Did they even have a shot on target and Wright was booked for kicking the ball away.Deluded and all that money spent for an average team.

 

[steve cooper]

Of the top 10, only us and Charlton won

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

Lampard says few weeks

Weeks

This is one of the most delusional interviews I’ve ever seen.

Saying the two yellow are not deserved and we should have had bookings for throwing the ball way and they would have lead to reds.

they had 0 shots on target and he says they were threatening

 

[Sky Blue Pete]

They did it again

Time to cut their away allocation.

Genuinely amazed that anyone who's watched us play can think selecting Dykes was a better way to trouble our defence rather than playing Kyogo.

Credit where its due though, after Norwichs antics Blues were quite refreshing in trying to keep the game going even with ten men and only going down injured when actually injured

Genuinely amazed that anyone who's seen Kyogo play thinks he's the "better option"? Been awful everywhere time ive seen him play this season! Anyone that still thinks the Scottish Prem is of a decent standard is smoking crack!

Even their fans agree with us. He'll be out of a job soon, it was quite a bizarre interview if you listen in full

He's always come across as an arrogant bloke.

Exactly as I said before the season. A 30 year old who has played in J League and SPL, first move to a half decent league and they bomb him out.
Blues stuck with him on a big wage now.

"It's harsh to lose a player for those two challenges and what's made it more frustrating for me, and I made the point just now [to the referee] that their players were kicking the ball away from all our quick free-kicks, and if we're going to lose a game based on losing a player to two yellow cards what we have to see is rules being adhered to by officials.”

He's a far better option than Dykes.
He's got pace and movement, his finishings appalling, but I doubt it's ever been as bad as Dykes 2nd half effort that ended up on Fomeshill Road.

 

[hill83]

£45 and you fucked it up

Imagine thinking that both of those challenges weren't yellows?!

He said it changed the game as well. For me first 25 were a proper derby and it could go either way. But we were on top by far when the red happened.

I'm amazed that someone who makes their living from football saw those challenges as non yellows, what a fucking balloon.

 

[Briles]

Where's was this "threat" he keeps mentioning?

My lad genuinely had someone after an u13 game say he turned the game giving a throw in

HMS Piss back-to-back promotions has hit the rocks! Almost as if EVERY fan bar Blues and Wrexhams could see it coming......

Don’t feel like we ever got out of 3rd gear but we absolutely bossed it today. I think the front 3 were all wasteful at times but their work rate & hunger to win the ball back more than made up for it. JDS outstanding, MVE consistently looks like he’s a level above and Top/Grimes in the midfield feels like a cheat code.

Was nervous pre match but was shocked how poor Blues were today, I’d be very surprised if Davies is still in charge come the start of next season.

 

[shepardo01]

Watching sky coverage back.... They honestly have about a 20min section of Haji and MVE playing crazy golf at Putt-Putt social in Cov.

If you’d have told me last Saturday we’d come away from Leicester/Birmingham with 4 points and 2 clean sheets I’d have snapped your hand in two.

Was worried with no Rudi or EMC in the squad, but Eccles came in and delivered a really hard working performance, set the tone for our press and energy, can’t fault anyone out there today. Torp excellent again. JDS was immense in his head to heads, and don’t remember him being caught out by the long ball over the top at all which is usually an issue.
Can see the massive advantage we have by having a settled squad that all know and play to each other’s strengths, as opposed to Birmingham who looked like a side of mercenaries at times.

also nice to see Rushworth got to take it easy after his heroics at Leicester.
