At least we have an international break coming up too. Might be at the best possible time

Yes true, get through Millwall and Wednesday and then we have some time I suppose.

Thought it was a good performance overall. Rudoni and EMC out is a worry. Today it didn't matter so much especially as they were reduced to 10 men. Brum have been over rated pre season and will probably settle mid table by season's end.
Just when we looked to get a foot hold at the top we face Millwall away without 2 of our most influencial players missing.
I like Eckles but he's no Rudoni. Think we are at our best with Wright out left and perhaps Simms up the middle for Millwall. But confidence is high and Wolfenden still unable to gain a place means our two CB's are not going to let slip at Millwall if they can help it.
Tough selection headache for Frank. Make sure we don't lose at the Den and win at Hillsborough and we can relax till after the break.

Totally dominant. They didn't lay a glove on us. Sending off or not, we cruised through that.

Your opinion which you're entitled to but nonsense. Very good enjoyable day . Very strange that you frequently point out on a match day a weak bench due to transfer window failings . The irony.

Yeah, I thought it was really scrappy even at 1-0, and it was only really over once they went down to 10.

Birmingham did look poor though

They scored a goal as well although it was in
the wrong end. Agree not sure what they’re complaining about

It isn't about what happens in the game anymore for several on here. Some layed their cards down and stick to them. Eccles, just like many others are not supposed to be good enough just because we went for quality over quantity and failed to get them over the line in time. JDS was supposed to be poor as LB. Yes we're a little light on numbers but the players we do have are good enough and are a part of a close group of players.

Thought Eccles had a really good game considering the amount of time he’s been out injured! Dasilva another good game! We’re becoming a real good team!

Let’s be honest - they were terrible and just gave up trying to play when we scored the second - it was like a training session in the second half.

Id be concerned if I’d been told this is the richest club in the world destined for greatness and yet a shire horse like Lyndon Dikes is the go to solution to score goals.

That's not even the worst damage, I've just heard that Lyndon Dykes has sharted all over the away team bogs.

Another great display. Birmingham were at it from the start with their shirt pulling and sneaky fouls. It stopped us playing, but they offered nothing and we adapted and found the goal.

Not sure the red card made that much difference. Everyone had a good game. Dasilva, Eccles the pick of the bunch. Simms back to his old self aft the bench, see how all the players congratulated him for the 3rd.

Hope Rudoni and EMC back soon.

Nah, the ball was up there and Eccles got there a split second before. Had the Blues player got there first it would just as easily been a yellow for Eccles.

Personally i thought it was harsh. Genuine attempt.

2nd one was silly as it was always being given as a yellow in that position.

In a nutshell…..10 men, 11 men, 12 men or even 1 man and his mow in our meadow wouldn’t have beaten us today. Big shout out to Eccles. Showed them zero respect .

4 points from the next two would be superb.

3 would be reasonable, wouldn't want to lose the unbeaten record, but preferable to two draws.

The club have just released a statement too. Yesterday, saying stop acting like cunts at away games otherwise home teams will start lowering our allocation. Id just point blank refuse ANY allocation to them if it was down to me and open the away end up to home fans.

Edit, it was 2 days ago. It only appeared on my newsfeed yesterday

What we did well in the 2 nd half was keep the ball really well and constantly stretched Birmingham especially wide and gave them no chance to get any form of momentum going.

If he sharted all over himself he might have looked a better player.

Genuinely amazed that anyone who's watched us play can think selecting Dykes was a better way to trouble our defence rather than playing Kyogo.

Credit where its due though, after Norwichs antics Blues were quite refreshing in trying to keep the game going even with ten men and only going down injured when actually injured

I thought Dykes up front was really poor for them. Just looked like he was there to rough up our centre backs
