Birmingham in good form but they always seem like a club that is one bad result away from a crisis

They looked shit hot against Albion the other night in fairness

It isn’t - are we showing relegation form over the last 46 games — yes or no?

That said the fixture schedule up to the World Cup would be hideous even for a squad that wasn’t paper thin.

While agreeing its too early to start the we're doomed nonsense if you're comparing results to the corresponding fixture last season Luton is the only one we've improved on, admittedly we've played 2 teams who weren't our league last season.

Wilson just looks nervous and indecisive to me. I think the defence prefers Moore behind them.

Yeah Wilson inspires no confidence at all, get Moore back in the goal

Rotherham had a brilliant start but may be losing their manager soon to Huddersfield

Back in reality, we have 2 points from 6 games - of course we look like relegation fodder.

Shush I'm not ready for reality. I'll stick to my warped semi-positive, sky blue tinted perspective for now. Can't wait for Wembley.

Moore is the superior goalkeeper imo.
Until the errors this season, he's been one of our best keepers we've had in the last few years.
Wilson gives me the same panic when the ball is in the box as Lee Burge did

You hit the nail on the head when you said "until the errors this season"
What he has achieved in the past is irrelevant today, at the moment his form is atrocious and he looks devoid of all confidence. You can't pick a player on past performance, if you could we'd still have Oggy between the sticks.

If you continue to pick a player who is so obviously out of form, what message are you sending to the rest of the squad?

After the start to the season we’ve had, O’Hare last minute injury, Hyam last minute sale, no home games. I just think six games is too little to draw any conclusions. We’re crap now, but I’d rather than than randomly crap when nothing has happened.

Weve got O’Hare to come back, which is massive. And hopefully a CB in Jan, and who knows if a big sale happens a couple more. Plus 22 home games. Plenty of time yet.

Can see where you're coming from but I think Moore is only going to get confidence back if he's playing regularly as he hasn't become a bad keeper overnight.
If Moore isn't good mentally at the moment and is out of the firing line to sort himself out fair enough, but I think we should always have the best keeper on the pitch if possible.
Obviously would love Wilson to prove me wrong though and I assume he will start tomorrow

No. Since the 1999/2000 season 53 points would keep you up. One exception being 2012/13. Peterborough relegated on 54.

we’ve had one home game which we lost.
We’ve not won in 11 games. Last win funnily enough against Blues. Our home form was awful last season in the end. After the first 6 home games, we only won 2 or 3 after that. So 3 wins in 17 at home. This season is mirroring the end of last season which is a worry

One game isn’t a trend and a poor start isn’t a poor season. We need to stop shipping silly goals, which we’ve shown before we can do.

Ultimately it’s an issue brought about the the squad that’s available and events and nothing that can be changed until January at this point.

you originally said we haven’t played at home yet. Which we have. Our home form second half of the season was shocking. Bit like our form overall but home form has been shocking since Christmas

Seems to me, if we are not going to sign anyone at all, the only hope is that those on the periphery from the U21's make a more permanent step up.

That only looks like Burroughs and Eccles though doesn't it. We don't have any really promising centre backs who are remotely close to the first team squad do we.
