    Atmosphere again

    Would be much easier if they just had retractable power ballads they could raise up and down at a moments notice but they've not been popular since the 80's.

    Match Thread Birmingham City - Coventry City Match Thread - Sunday 4th Jan

    Back to the usual formation now players have been rested. Plus we could choose to give most of these players two weeks without a game if we play a weakened side in the Cup. Saka can be a bit hit and miss away from home, but hopefully he'll have a good game. If Simms doesn't start ahead of...

    On a positive note…

    Disagree about Rudoni not being the issue. I think he is the major source of it. Not just last night but since he's come back in the free flowing attacking football has gone. Rudoni doesn't move forward with the ball like BTA to put the defence under pressure. But when he does receive the ball...

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    Seems more of a project than a starter, and with his failed transfer during the summer and the noises about his transfer to us, I'm just a bit cold on the prospect of him joining us.

    LB is an issue with JD out. Brau showed he isn't ready. Bidwell might be a slightly better option in terms of positioning etc. but he's regressing and far from ideal. Could try KKH on the left and see how it goes? Though ideally he'd be in for mvE so he could have a rest after illness. Midfield...

    200 million price tag - Wright

    While I agree to some extent, I can't help but feel that had Simms started and put in that performance FL would have been dragging him off after an hour. His treatment of our two main strikers is clear to see he has a favourite who he'll play regardless of form or effort.

    Ref watch

    I think that was the one where the ball hit the ref, so he had to give them possession from a drop ball.

    Lampard interview

    I think it was more to do with the performance team looking at the squad, illness and four games in the space of a week and concluding we just couldn't sustain a press for the whole game and the effort then impacting future performances. I certainly feel it would have been more effective to try...

    If you'd put George or Ferguson coming in, I'd have taken it with a very large pinch of salt but thought there was an outside possibility. George AND Ferguson - not a chance!

    Brau

    We've seen before players come in and can take a long while to settle in. Especially if coming from abroad and having to learn all this in a second language. Brau does look like he has a lot to learn to get up to the standard required, but I'll give him more time to do that. I'd say he looks...

    25/26 January Transfer Window

    I think he'd be a good purchase not just because he's an AM, but he's a different type of AM to what we've already got. Seems more like a CoH type that gets the ball and runs with it.

    Knowing our luck it's a totally different illness and we'll end up having a second wave of illness.

    Stadium update

    Apart from the fact it was built the 'wrong way round' it is/was a very nice example of post-war architecture. And I don't say that often.

    Half term report

    Considering what MvE's shooting has been like this season when he has, I can see why he doesn't!

    BTA

    They will have both been playing the AM/supporting striker role for much of the season. They may have been playing it in different ways, but it is still the same position.

    Yep. Never heard of a footballer using vibrating anal beads.

    How much will we spend in the summer?

    When you bring someone in like that without a fee but big wages it does risk having a knock on effect. Agents of other players then argue that if that player is getting £x, then their client should get nearer that as well. It can lead to ballooning inflation of the wage bill (even more so that...
