Decent starting line up and as expected really. If we’ve got enough legs left and no lasting illness it should br enough. Expecting them to be up for it though, hopefully early goal for us will settle things down

We need to level up today. Every game we play is a cup final for our opponents. We’re a scalp everyone will want and with our dip in form many will think it’s possible.

With Blues being solid at home, and on a poor run of form, they’re gonna be up for this me thinks. Got to get into them from the off.

Stansfield, Doyle and Paik kick opponents a lot. Hoping the ref is strong, plus hope Stansfield isn't properly fit. An 'accidental' knee in the same thigh he had a deadleg with would be nice!

Strongest team available. Don’t mind Eccles in the 8 role, personally think he suits it more than 10. As long as he stays on his feet.

As always - massively keen for Simms to play well. Yes he’s clumsy but he is nowhere near his ceiling IMO.

1-3, Simms x2, Eccles.

Only Dasilva and Simmo are going to be fresh really. Let's hope jds can make a start on repaying the 5 points he owes us!

Does he have one of those big Georgian places in Leamington?

Every game we have left is a cup final. Except for next Saturday, which I sincerely hope we throw.

This has genuinely made me feel a bit sick. For that sort of tribute it has to be bad - thoughts immediately go to kids.

Yeah it’s clearly not his nan died peacefully in her sleep. Hope he’s OK and is given whatever time he needs.

You search through the dustbins for something to eat, you find a dead dog and you think its a treat.
Inn your Birmingham slums.


Also, its ALWAYS irked me, not to mention makes.us lookna bit silly, when we sing Yam Yam, Yam Yam, to a group of fans from.and area that dont say Yam. They say Yow. So could we please try and sing Yow Yow at the Yow Yows, and not Yam Yam? Thanks.

I have previously raised the yam yam/yow yow issue many times - It appears to fall on deaf ears.
This may need a Professor Higgins type intervention.

Starting XI looks best available. Bench a bit packed out with youngsters but good optios with Woolf and Wright if needed. Midfield options limited
