    Poor Attendance Saturday

    talking of attendances I was a little surprised to see that the crowd for the Leicester match was actually up by 1000 over same fixture last year

    How Injured is Ben Turner ?

    why would any club buy a player that has not played a competitive match or even friendly during 2011 ? They might not be the brightest sparks at Brum but do you honestly think they are that thick ? No one will buy him until such time as he can prove (a) his fitness (b) the level of performance...

    Ricoh ownership

    From memory wingy the club got themselves into a complete mess regarding the Ricoh. Could be wrong on some of this because its a while back (anyone has better details please fill in the gaps)........ The club sold Highfield Rd and had to get out The build of the stadium was delayed in part by...

    Broken Britain

    think it is important to remember that the overwhelming majority of our youth had no part in this. If you look at the numbers involved then it is only in a reality a very small minority - who need to be dealt with firmly, made an example of if necessary. My lad is 14 and was absolutely...

    Juke in front of goal

    His problem isnt that he missed a few in the past - all good strikers do. The biggest limiting factor is consistent and decent service. Right now he doesnt know where his next chance is coming from. If he starts scoring his hit rate will improve with his confidence and it becomes more natural...

    The Hoffman meeting is cancelled

    I think the telling thing is not that it has been cancelled then rearranged but more that it was scheduled so far ahead in the first place. There is no urgency, and that doesnt strike me as two parties eager to do business or make changes. I think perhaps people are reading too much into the...

    Thorn's cry for help...

    We are missing leaders on the pitch - of the names suggested above would any of them really be first choice when compared to Captains we have had in the past. Clingan is the best of the current squad as Captain, I dont question his ability at all but do you really see a captain? Captain...

    Would anyone else like to see Mifsud back

    Too much baggage, going back is often a mistake and he lacks fitness at decent level of football - no thanks. AT wants players comfortable on the ball to match the style he wants to play - Mifsud never controlled a ball within 5 yards of his body and then never looked up to make the right pass...

    Broken Britain

    There is no reasonable explanation. They are just twats thinking they are owed something for nothing and not taking responsibility for their own lives. Most of them are not old enough to have contributed anything to our society and country yet they expect to be rewarded by the easy life paid for...

    Should we play the kids on merit?

    Think that folk assume picked on merit means that they are picked because they individually play well. Not what I would say as picked on merit - it is just one of the merits of a player. Others maybe fitness, experience, how the player fits in with others etc. Age should not be a barrier to a...

    Leave poor Freddie alone!

    I find it strange that this arguement comes up only when folk think we are short of attacking options. There was never a peep out of people when King was here keeping Freddy out of the side..... why ? because King was the better option and player. Nor would there be much support for playing him...

    Leave poor Freddie alone!

    I can think of no other city player in recent memory where fans have found so many excuses for him not delivering what he is handsomely rewarded to do. Successive managers who work with the guy day in and day out have all for their own reasons decided that he didnt merit a place in the team they...

    Leave poor Freddie alone!

    gladly leave him alone ..... especially on match days when the rest of the squad go play the match :whistle: ability but not the application .... its a shame but its his choice

    relegation?

    ""This takeover, if there is one, is likely to turn hostile, with either side knocking lumps of each other, like a punch and Judy Show, it needs to be sorted NOW, in a civilised manner and not drag on for months, or it will be too late to turn things round, Mr Hoffman and whatever puppeteer is...
