I werent that impressed with Bellingham. Good player but didn’t think WOW
Most 16-year-olds aren't even starting for their U18 team, never mind the first team. While he didn't run the show he showed he's got all the traits you want from a top class midfielder and the mentality to boot. Don't get many 16-year-olds in mens football comfortable defending, getting physical and making tackles - normally they just want to attack and play simple passes.

Jude had his worst game for us yesterday by a long shot. He is usually our bets player, and his average for scoring, or being involved in a goal is 124 mins, which at 16 years old is amazing. Please watch this short highlights clip. He he the real deal like Maddison.

Our wingbacks are the most productive in the league with 11 contributions to goals, and Juke is again top of all the charts in his stats.

I think if the idiot manager sets us up properly for the return, you will see what he's made of. And of most of us here may also be England fans. He will be one of yours too eventually...

You can tell the kids got talent, didn’t stop all day and got stuck in (although I bet he picks up cards). Wasn’t outstanding but you could see the kids had that something special

I didn’t think he really stood out on Saturday but for a 16 year old to look average means they’re impressive.

I didn’t see that much from him (Bellingham) on Saturday and it didn’t surprise me he was taken off.
Also I didn’t think the Blues were good at all - they looked like a decent League 1 team - end of.
Same shots as us - same shots on target as us and we had more possession!
If OHare has scored everyone would be saying how crap and ordinary they were!
Even Blues fans thought Bellingham & Birmingham were awful on the day - we were not even at our best either!
Replay is definitely winnable that’s for sure!

It was not the worst 0-0 I’ve seen. You lot were by far the better side over the 90. We really didn’t do ourselves justice at all, and I’d put that amongst our worst performances of the season.

We’ve got this guy Pep Clotet in charge, and we actually suspect he’s not picking the team. The CEO Ren Dong, has a tactics board in his office, which is overlooking the pitch at our training ground believe it or not!

Montero was crap! I think it was his first start for us, and hopefully the last. He was lazy all game, but his pace in the final 3rd did cause panic now and again.

Bellingham really has his worst game for us. He was trying to make up for the crap around, and ultimately looked like a headless chicken. England. U17 captain.

Juke, grafts, but he needs a partner!

Our fullbacks only work with decent wingers, and our best one Bela, started on the bench! Marcus Maddison is rumoured to be coming.

Clarke-Salter is on loan form Chelsea. World Cup U20 winner, and captained England U21.

Ivan Sunjic. Croatia U21 captain. Started our season excellent, but he clueless manager has killed him. He is actually really good, and prefers to just sweep up in from of the defence.

McCheceran (I cant even be arsed to spell his name) Davis should have started ahead of him as we expected him too.

Our CBs. We dropped out best one to play Dean alongside Clark-Salter.

Our manager. I’d gladly swap for yours. He may be a good coach, but he’s a shite, and proven failed manager. Did you actually see the idiot make subs in the 83rd minute?


Keep playing like that and you’ll be up! I hope this give you a lift to push on now. The reply is a pain in the arse for us all though.

It was a weird atmosphere, that at time’s was a good crack. It was largely quiet though, and we lacked imagination for the ‘away’ side, which is not like us!

Anyway, enough waffle. Be proud you turned up.


(Just glad that DVB didn’t get the winner)
What the hell is going on at Birmingham - first Bright refuses to sign & now this?


BIRMINGHAM SNUBBED....AGAIN
Renat Dadashov has also turned down a late move from Wolves to Birmingham.

The two clubs had agreed a loan deal but the player has decided against it.

Spot on. We were awful.

Bellingham is a cracker but at 16 he ain’t gonna produce every game. Gonna be a star.
What’s going on at Birmingham -

I would like to hear from a Bluenose on this.
First Bright refuses to sign now this



First it was Bright now this!

You mean Jairo Martínez and Ivan Guerrero?

Both of them left us and went back to the clubs they came from in Hondarus. Hardly stellar careers
Jairo Martinez was capped 38 times by Honduras and scored 13 goals.
He scored 3 goals for us in 11 appearances, a better rate than most of our current strikers and that was in a higher division.
Ivan Guererro was capped 84 times by Honduras.
I'd say they both had pretty decent careers

Decent career because he got capped 84 times by the mighty world force of football that is Honduras?

As transfer windows go, this has been very Blues. Sign a non-goal scoring Villa reject striker, get held to ransom by a Wolves kid who spent most of last season in League 1 and can’t get in the Wigan team, sent the three amigos back to Spain with the Spanish revolution left in tatters, then in the final seconds let one of our most experienced relegation fighting campaigners join a relegation rival for the remainder of the season!!

Classic Blues, what a club :D:cheers:

That sounds grim. Eerily similar to the way we were run before the big troubles started. I hope you get some decent owners in before shit really hits the fan and we’re ground sharing at the Sisu stadium (playing in the park)

Dirty money in, clean money out

*taps nose
What strength team do you think you guys will put out on Tuesday?
Think you have a game on Friday don’t you - so will you rest players for the replay?
Or are you short on options after the rattling window!!

Hogan is a decent player isn't he? Remember him being good for Brentford in the Championship so might work out.

Bright is a strange character. He's been stringing us along the last couple of windows too. I think essentially he's all about the money and Wolves are paying him some ridiculous amount for the next 6 months so he'd rather sit it out by the looks of it. God knows who's advising the kid.

He’s also a DVB which means he has to hit the ground running to get the fans onside.

Che Bunce was capped 29 times for New Zealand why did we let him go

Lots of schools of thought and bullshit theories around Monks sacking and Clotet his number 2 getting the job. 99% of these are rumours and heresay but what is fact is Dong (the new frontman who took the place of convicted financial criminal Yeung) moved himself into an office at Blues training ground. Monk, quite rightly, had a blazing row with Dong as he considered the training ground as sacrosanct to the players and management and not for board members.

Shortly after he was sacked and made to sign an NDA in order to get his contract paid up. Just after that all these rumours came out about Monk around wrong-doing involving agents. NDA effectively gagged him and of course he wasn’t prosecuted for anything. It was almost as if there was no proof of these allegations if you get what I mean. Strangely enough he was able to get another job in the same division.

Clotet is in place cos he’s a yes man with no track record. Unfortunately for us he’s a yes man with no track record and no feckin idea either.
