    To make this a contest we need India to declare.

    It seems harsh to penalise England for a slow over rate, as seems likely, given that we have spent most of the innings retrieving the ball from the top of the stand or the road behind it.

    Better still after 4+11=15 👍

    10 more wins does it

    I feel that we have up to 11 cup finals ahead of us, so the nervous excitement is growing by the day. It’s a great time to be a City fan! I do hope that we can at least clinch an automatic spot - not necessarily the title - over the course of the next 9 or 10 matches because it will be...

    Championship thread 25/26!

    Looking at the Leicester fans forum they think their players gave up some time ago. They expect to be thrashed by Ipswich. If some of the predictions on there are correct, Ipswich will have a vastly superior goal difference to us after Saturday!

    Championship thread 25/26!

    The stadium is owned by K Power Holdings Co Limited, a company registered in the British Virgin Islands, which is the holding company of the football club. It’s similar to us. The football club could go bust without any need for the ownership of the ground being put in jeopardy unless of course...

    Would you have Hamer back?

    Heart says yes, head says no. My head could be persuaded to say yes if we don’t get promoted but he probably wouldn’t want to come then.

    It’s actually 95 points if we have 8 wins and 3 defeats but I don’t think that materially affects your reasoning.

    You would think so, wouldn’t you but obviously not. #liesdamnedliesandstatistics 😆

    Autos - Who Can & Who Can't

    Yes but that’s different to your comment on my post, which was that we are assured of the top six: Theoretically, which is what I was on about, we’re not. Blackburn in 20th could still overtake us if they win every remaining game and we don’t pick up a single point between now and the end of...

    Autos - Who Can & Who Can't

    I’m sure we are 😊 In accordance with the opening post of this thread, I was just looking at the mathematics of the table not football probabilities. If we don’t have another wobble we are going up 😊

    Autos - Who Can & Who Can't

    The good news is that, even though it is only the beginning of March, we are already guaranteed to finish in the top twenty 👍 In reality it will be higher than this because it doesn’t take account of the many games that the other teams will have to play against each other. I reckon we are...

    No because I don’t think the away section will be full for every single game. The sections for the home fans probably will be sold out for every Premier League match although maybe not for the League Cup, depending on the attractiveness of the opposition. We will sell out our home matches in...

    10 more wins does it

    I’m not - at least not yet - but I do think that some of the predictions that we only need about 85 points are potentially too optimistic. With the recent recovery in our form I am fairly sure that we will make it, even if only in second place. The title would be nice but it’s not particularly...

    10 more wins does it

    We mustn’t get overconfident. Over the last ten matches Middlesborough have averaged 2.3 ppg, with 7 wins, 2 draws and the loss against us. If they maintain that form to the end of the season - and I appreciate that it is a big if and that they still have to play Ipswich - they will end up with...

    All Blues today?

    That makes things more interesting! C’mon Brum.

    All Blues today?

    I want to have the biggest gap possible between us and the teams that are capable of catching us. If that means cheering for Birmingham City tonight then so be it. I want Middlesbrough to lose tonight. Like you I have a preference for Middlesborough to go up instead of Ipswich but ultimately...

    All Blues today?

    C'mon the Blues! I'm banking on you tonight. @Stan_Drews the new stadium and sports quarter look like a great idea, although I confess that I don't like the chimneys.

    Signings from parachute clubs

    What about Brookes, Hamer and O'Hare as squad players? It would help to reinforce the Blades position as one of our feeder clubs 🤣

    I agree. Torp is better playing further forward.
