Surprised to see they are 4th favourites with the bookies to win the league at the moment (we are second!).

I don't see them finishing higher than 8th.

1 potential shot on target a game without the ref being against them though and it could easily be 8th.

No wonder they were so shite, turns out their manager went to a different game than everyone else.

I don’t even remember kicking the ball away apart from Wright’s yellow card.

What the fuck did he watch?

Grimes lobbed it over their player to stop the quick free kick in front of the bench.
I do think Haji did it twice too but got booked for one of them.

They were absolutely garbage. Hull and Norwich better teams to have come here this season.

Birmingham v poor. Rushworth had a couple of catches to make, a few touches with his feet…and that was it. Didn’t need to make a meaningful save all game. Norwich ruined the game with their tactics but Birmingham did absolutely nothing all game. If I was one of their fans who paid £45 to watch them i would ask the American owners for my money back.

He should focus on the ‘zero’ shots on goal rather than make excuses. Clearly came for a draw and to ‘rough us up’

That's 2 out of the last 3 games without a shot on target and only 5 goals from 7 games.

But at least they have the most goals scored after 90 minutes in the Championship. 3 of their 5 goals have come very late. Maybe that's why he said they had a very good chance at just 1-0 down

I called him out for not having the experience needed with a few other managers before the season started. It's something frequently ignored. But saying that I also questioned the experience of Lampard when he came to us so what do I know

They were very good tactics and I hope they use them again in the return game.

Someone just go on and post that that giant pic of that heavy set fella, cropped hair, white shirt(?), with the crybaby face(?), that I see constantly tossed up. I guess(?) that makes this thread's point.

Blues were awful yesterday, but being careful to judge them on one performance. Thinking back to Leeds away last season, the same things were being said about us. Annoyingly I still think they might be in the play off mix. They're likely to go level on points with us Tuesday, and their squad is pretty strong. Probably need to get rid of that clown in charge though.

The game yesterday wasn't a one off. They've scored 5 goals in 7 games with 3 of them coming after the 90th minute. They had been strong in defence, only letting in 5 goals in 6 games, but now that's 8 in 7 games and their best defender missing out on their next game.

Add to this they have a manager out of his depth. His interview yesterday was quite amusing Have they got the bottle to get rid of him and then manage to bring one in with the experience needed? For all the money they've spent they look very average at best.

They might look at Sheffield United who have been abysmal and got rid of their new manager with Wilder coming back who then get their first points of the season. But hopefully they will give him more time.

Before the sending off the game was obviously more level but I didn't see much threat according to sky they tend to grow in to games so maybe that's what he was banging on about. On kicking the ball away complete sour grapes and wasn't done any more than any other team I wonder if because one of them was right in front of him it got in his head. On the yellow cards if suggest a rewatch cause they would be given every day of the week. Also the other players that got carded were deserved too, maybe ask your players not to be petulant just because they are losing...

That’s a wild take.

they were hopeless, £10m striker on bench, playing a cart horse up top.

No idea what they were trying to do. Only wanted to fight, given what they’ve spent, I’d be concerned. Also shows you can spent loads and get it badly wrong - looks like another super market sweep with little thought out plan how to fit team together currently.

and that was one of the most professional city performances I’ve ever seen.

Yes i was saying to my mate what a very well managed professional performance especially second half. Blokes around me shouting get it forward. We didn’t need to completely in control kept possession and made them do all the chasing

I think Mowbrays free but they have to amass enough points before January though

Not much of a Hollywood signing that a Yank would like for their TV show. Will be interesting to see who they go for next and how many times they get turned down. Reality hasn't hit home yet.

Yeah I’ve watched it back and haven’t a clue what he’s on about saying it was all the time. Ridiculous.

Davies made some shit tactical subs.

Left Dykes on when he was clearly on his arse after chasing shadows for the first 15 minutes of the second half.

They were never going to get the ball into the box for him, they'd have been better leaving Stansfield on and launching it over the top to him.
