    Promotion - The Down side

    NO thank you, it was grim every week. Just the odd win. The goal has to be challenging for the Play Offs in the Championship, but never actually making it to the Prem. It is fun expecting to win every week whoever the opposition and it is crap living off morsels. Only if we were fortunate enough...

    Lukas Jutkiewicz

    ...which is why he has had a reasonable career. He's played mainly, if not totally, in the Championship with 3 clubs, appearing regularly (unusual for a striker). He will have made some good money for the last 10 years or so from no more than average talent for the second tier. Well done him, I...

    This game is going to appear in a quiz in the future. When did B'ham score a goal away from home at St Andrews? or something like that

    L1 game tonight

    Posh win - they are 7 points behind us, so it is in our hands. Wycombe will then be 2 games ahead so we can overhaul them

    Match Thread Coventry City vs. Birmingham City Match Thread - Saturday 25th Jan

    I'd like to be out of the Cup. Fixture congestion is our enemy this close to the end of the season and we are already one game behind most of the others. Games in hand rarely seem to turn into maximum points. So a draw and City winning the replay is the worst possible scenario for me. So I would...

    Yes we may need another Striker but..

    This has been my bug bear for quite a time. We have not been scoring enough goals (see the goal diff compared to others), but the goals we do score are often very good goals - Shipley's on Saturday being yet another as would have been O'Hare's if it had gone in. If you see the match highlights...

    I assume it is O'Hare for Westbrooke on Saturday?

    MK were absolutely dreadful at MK earlier this season. Shows how much difference a manager can make with exactly the same players.

    Our goal difference is now competitive, which it never was last season, or earlier this

    Transfer Rumour Bullshit/legit Rumours Jan 2020

    In the event of him signing and then like as not proving to be well past his prime, I will look back on this enthusiasm with interest. Please, no more old codgers in attack, no matter what their past reputations - we have been there under Mowbray. Anyway, we are doing just nicely playing 3-4-3...

    Not in the long term, as this season has shown

    Watford U23 v Coventry U23

    a number of Hiwula's goals last year were real scuffs, where you thought a proper striker would have hit it more cleanly, and it went in partly because he miss hit it

    They were awful in the match in the autumn. We were only marginally better but we are a much better organised team now, with more firepower up front. They have also improved. Don't care as long as we win. 1-0 to us. Westbrook plays a blinder, all the scouts are watching, his price doubles and...

    4th Round Draw - Who d'ya fancy? (should we make it)

    also the rules posted earlier mention the % that can be allocated to the away team, but not any location iirc? As a gesture we say to B'ham, you can have >15% as is allowed.

    4th Round Draw - Who d'ya fancy? (should we make it)

    Imagine it reverse. How would you react if we were the landlords and B'ham drawn at home?
