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...

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...

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.

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...

He gave a real leaders performance yesterday, and was MOTM for me. He won everything in the air and really led by example. He’s been a scapegoat as he’s given away a few needless penalties and silly errors, but he’s a very good centre back and his experience really benefits Rose and Hyam. He’s...

Surprised at some of the negative, pessimistic and down playing posts. We were the better team yesterday and should have won it at the end. It might have been an FA Cup game and maybe they weren’t playing their strongest side (I have no idea either way) but whatever side they put out, it’s...

Not sure if they were ‘legion’ or not, but definitely a lot of stone island, ‘we do what we want’ types around. My favourites were the few behind me, who had no idea who any of our players were, left to get a halt time beer 25 minutes into the game, tried to kick off with a steward who asked...

This might be more a Biamou game than a Godden one.

We started very nervously but have grown into it. We’re lacking a bite attacking wise at the minute. Westbrooke is anonymous and Shipley’s runs aren’t as effective. McFadzean having a real leaders performance at the back. Walsh is comfortable at this level, but others aren’t quite as assured...

Leaving your seat after 25 minutes to make sure you get a beer at half time - the sign of a true fan.

Agreed. Westbrooke is more disciplined which is probably why he’s ahead. I really like him, but O’Hare is the game changer.

Really?! Absolutely no signs of trouble anywhere I’ve been. Fans mingling really well. Hopefully it’s over cautiousness rather than anything else.

Definitely got a ‘big game’ feel to today. Train is way busier than usual. Promised the partner I’d be getting my usual train home straight after the game. Slightly worried I might end up breaking that promise. I still think the league is way more important, but going to fully embrace and...

I can’t believe he’s only 32, feels like he’s been around forever!

Getting increasingly excited for the game tomorrow. In the grand scene of things it means way less than Tuesday night, but it has the potential to be a fantastic day. While I wish we got similar crowds each week, and every game was as much as a spectacle, unfortunately that’s not the reality...

Looks good when I’ve seen him, just worried about a lack of pace. Hopefully it was more of lack of match sharpness/experience of men’s football. Although if pace is an issue, it can be mitigated somewhat with experience, which is exactly why loans like this are good.

I agree there’s loads of good ale bars in the centre, but we’re meeting in DigBrew at 12:30 so needs to be that way. I’ll keep looking, it’s just a shame our usual ones don’t open until 12!

We’re getting in at 11 - a lot earlier than usual. However all of my usual haunts from various Digbeth ale trail don’t open until 12. Any recommendations for places open at 11, welcoming to Cov fans and serve good beers? We’re due in DigBrew around 12:30, so needs to be that way. The Kerryman...

Really enjoyed it. I thought the first episode was quite weak and looked low budget, but it picked up significantly after that.
