    He was until he just got skinned way too easily. Their plate really rinsed him for pace.

    I agree - ask any striker and they’ll always prefer a two. Baka looking very good. Their plate down injured, looks serious, but unfortunately takes away our momentum.

    I know people won’t like it, but Baka has started very well. Wants the ball and is laying it off well. Great run from Pask, just ran out of ideas at the end. Again, very positive start. Dominating position in the right areas too.

    Good start and very good chance for Baka after a good call from Westbrooke. Westbrooke is 10 and Shipley next to Kelly. Bwllingham up front for them. Dominating so far.

    Shite game? Atmosphere says otherwise. Hopefully our play will too.

    Queue to collect tickets is ridiculous. One person trying to deal with a ridiculously long queue. It isn’t moving! Oh well, not sure why I’m going anyway. We’re not capable of playing on two fronts.

    Careful. We’re all hoping we lose don’t forget.

    Two up front with three central midfielders and no 10? Or Shipley/Westbrooke playing 10? I don’t think he’ll play Biamou 10. Jones on the bench is interesting! To be fair, the whole bench is fairly attacking. For a conservative manager he’s really going shit or bust. Really hope Mason has a...

    Thanks chaps, albeit slightly different suggestions! Just have to hope the stewards know!

    They said to us they’ll be in the away end somewhere and I don’t think they’d want Cov fans walking across the Birmingham fans? But no idea where in the away end or if the person at the ticket office even knew what they were talking about. We’re going to get there a little earlier either way!

    Nightmare! Although we ordered ours last Wednesday, so no idea what happened with the post. Postman must have stolen them - clearly in high demand on the black market.

    Anyone know where we have to collect the tickets from before the game? I doubt it’s the usual home ticket office, and the CCFC ticket office didn’t know when I called today! Any other Cov fan been told / can any Birmingham fans advise?

    On the train on the way over now, not looking forward to having to pick up tickets at the ground. Usually 4500 would be considered a good away following for a Tuesday night, but in context, given the clamour and moaning of some re the ‘home tie’ tickets it’s slightly disappointing. Looking...

    Transfer Rumour Ryan Giles on Loan - Confirmed

    Has something happened behind the scenes to explain why he’s seemingly out of favour? I appreciate McCallum initially kept the shirt based on form (and maybe to put him in the window if you prefer a conspiracy!), but to sign someone new just as it appears he might get his chance...

    Anyone else (Coventry side) not received their tickets yet? Called today and was told to call the ticket office by midday tomorrow if they don’t arrive in the morning, which I guess might mean having to collect from the St Andrews ticket office before the game? But officially it’s an away game...

    The league is the priority but we have a strong enough squad to put out a good enough team to compete tonight and a team to win on Saturday. Plus, while no game is easy in reality, Bolton are a struggling side. They won on Saturday, but had lost/drawn the previous few. Not sure what other...

    Transfer Rumour Ryan Giles on Loan - Confirmed

    Always exciting to sign somebody new, if he is a LB/LWB, I really hope it’s not at the expense of Mason. Amongst the McCallum hype, it’s been forgotten how good Mason actually is, and has the potential to be. If he’s attack minded though, could be an option as one of the ACM’s, but we already...

    Robins post match/mcallum sale

    Anyone arguing with £3million plus add ons isn’t worth listening to. I wouldn’t loan him back, at least not as a starter - Mason is just as good. Plus, it gives Mason the chance to continue to develop, as let’s not forget he’s still fairly young himself and has shown significant improvement...

    Until they do. Not saying this will be that time but things change and your constant pessimism is annoying.

    Robins post match/mcallum sale

    Anyone going to give the club credit for rejecting the bid in the first place? After all, SISU are the worst owners of all time and Joy needs a new handbag in the January sales. Ideally we keep him until the end of the season, but if his head is turned and it’s a decent offer then it’s...
