Match Thread Birmingham City (A) - Fri 15th April (7 Viewers)

[SkyBlueSoul]

All the usual. I'm assuming an unchanged line-up if there's no new injuries, talk of Fadz potentially being available could change things though.

We should be expecting to beat Blues but would be typical to put Fulham away then lose 1-0 here. Neither team in amazing form

[Frostie]

Typical Bowyer side will just try & kick us off the park & chuck the ball into the box from anywhere. We'll need to be strong & disciplined.

 

[HuckerbyDublinWhelan]

2-1 city - Lyle Taylor will score for them

 

[Ann Proctor-Brown]

1-1

 

[MAFF]

Definitely a draw.

 

[Torquay Sky Blue]

Horrible side for us to play against. Polar opposite to Fulham who will allow you play. Birmingham are anti football. Preston, Cardiff, Millwall are all hanging around the Championship dishing out this shite. Thank you Mark Robin's for refusing to join them.

 

[pusbccfc]

0-0 again.

International coverage so not on iFollow overseas but will be on domestic iFollow.

It's far too simplistic to say that anything other than a win after Fulham would be 'typical City'.

The effort the team, and in particular the midfield four, put in to reach that level of performance against Fulham was huge. The paper thin squad coupled with injuries means that they have to go again, and a few days in bed won't recharge them fully.

The management of the team from Friday to Baggies the following Saturday is going to be difficult... He literally has the 10 outfield players from Fulham, Kane & maybe Fadz back that he trusts to start at the moment.

God knows how we will get on... But I will be there & probably a few beers deep!

Happy Easter!!!

Death...

Lyle Taylor will score for them

I’ve come to severely dislike him… he’s becoming like Richard Cresswell

 

[PUSB-We_are_going_up]

Gonna be a tough game, and considering we have just played a big team off the park I think we may have one of those Hull/Luton performances, although still hoping for a 2-0 win

Unless you’re abroad and then you have to set your vpn to U.K.

So if I’m abroad and VPN back to the U.K. I’ll be able to watch?

Anyone any ideas what time the full replay comes on? I’m in Paris with the family for the day so unlikely to watch it live but would like to get the proper experience when I get back to the hotel if I can avoid the score (both technically and in terms of having the self discipline to avoid it all day).

Usually the next day, early hours of the morning.

Bollocks. Sneaky glances at SBT halfway up the Eiffel Tower it is then.

 

[Gint11]

Winnable game on paper but we know how Birmingham will play. They’ll kick us, employ dirty tactics and make it difficult for us. We probably need an early goal but well need to be disciplined.

0-2

Not sure I'm keen too keen on this Likley lads revamp

 

[David O'Day]

That ord who takes long throws from the half way line still play for them?

Yes Roberts still plays for them.

 

[AOM]

Fancy a tight win, but these are exactly the type of teams we struggle against.

All they need is one goal from nowhere and then it's 10 men behind the ball and then foul and break up our play until full time

 

[David O'Day]

Yes Roberts still plays for them.

grim

 

[pusbccfc]

Although it might be the Birmingham fans throwing things further than him

 

[larry_david]

Be about 18 mins injury time, the amount of time that prick waddled over from one side to the other for each throw.

 

[It’sabatch87]

Five years ago,amazing turn around.
Thanks Mark and Adi and all the staff involved for what you’ve done so far!!PUSB

 

[lordy_87]

Early goal needed

 

[steve101]

These are the types of games that test our all round progress. We know we have improved in the way we play and therefore can compete well with footballing teams but have we the nous to find a way against teams like Birmingham? Hope so but McFadzean is a miss for a game like this.

 

[Esoterica]

Must be 10 or 11 games since we kept a clean sheet, we're due one.

Wouldn't be surprised to see him in the squad

I often wait for the replay. The afternoon games are 8:00 a. m. my time and night games 12:45p.m. The replay usually shows up around 6.m. ( 1:00 a.m. U.K.)
Remember to cover the centre of your screen until you have the game screen up if you don’t want to see the score and don’t scroll down to see latest scores or table as they will be up to date

 

[clint van damme]

Mad to think if we win this we're still in with a shout of the play offs with 4 games left to go. Great achievement even if we do fall short which I think we will.
