I have such imposter syndrome at the moment. Constantly getting comments from people who don't even watch Championship football, many of whom keep talking about us being Premier League next season.

I find myself just playing it down every time. I think we've had so much shit it is hard to properly believe what's going on at the moment.

It isn't arrogance from most. It's reality.

Out of our biggest rivals we're clear of Southampton who need to win and quarter of their remaining games and at the same time us lose them 7 games. Ipswich are playing like a bunch of strangers. We've won away at the teams in 2nd, 3rd and 4th. We're scoring for fun and have the second best defence.

If it wasn't us but another club that had only dropped 11 points from the first 18 games, a GD higher than any other team has even scored goals, no rival within touching distance and only 2 clubs in the top half that have won 3 out of their last 5 games when we've won 11 of our last 12 games you would say they're looking favourites to go up as champions.

Was out with workmates for a xmas drink or two last night.
Two are blue noses, one was so misguided he even believed that they would finish 2nd this year, and the other one really believes a 62,000 seater stadium is being built in Birmingham for them, really enjoyed taking the piss out of the pair of deluded chaps

I feel like Shitehead are too wealthy for that to happen even though i wish it more than anything. Even if i still don't fully believe all their bollocks, at worst they are tidying Blues up in a way that makes them more attractive to future buyers.

Is 2nd spot really out of the question? If they fix their away form they will be a strong challenger.

Maybe it’s just my American xenophobia shining through but, assuming they do actually build the stadium, I only see this being leased to the club for a potentially crippling rent. Not a cat in hell’s chance any of the ‘sports quarter’ revenue makes it off Knighthead’s books (unless sold).

If they do build a stadium that big they won't even half fill it.

Never understand why a supposed "best" defender at a club doesn't go straight back into the side

Because he’s not fully fit. Rudoni is considered our best player and was on the bench after an injury layoff

He was touch and go for the Stoke game and i think he was on the bench for that . Begs the question if not fit again why is he on the bench ? Rudoni got some minutes .

He’s just not fit enough to start, why is this so difficult for you to understand
