Well I’ve predicted a pretty convincing score line on tweetleague…

Dare I say it needs Eccles

Agree, he's been our best midfielder this season.

Playing O'Hare instead of him is a gamble, let's see if it comes off.

 

[CCFCSteve]

I'm going to be the harbinger of doom, but it looks too attacking to be effective.

Robins saw the SBT comments about the negative starting line up last week and thought he’d teach us a lesson ! Would have Eccles in if fit but like the line up otherwise: let’s see what simms and wright can do….if we can get hold of the ball !

 

[covhead1]

We should give the Blue noses a good duffing, let's face it Rooney is the epitome of a clueless shit manager.
3-0 win for us!

 

[Evo1883]

This is a straight 4231 ?

 

[fernandopartridge]

If we don't win this one comfortably, I will have questions. It is time, no excuses.

What world do you live in? It's a championship game against a local rival. There are no whipping boys in this league and only a clown would expect a comfortable win.

How can you not know how to pronounce a players name who plays for you? They find some right divs on CWR.

 

[Boicey]

Simms and Wright need to bring it tonight.
Hopefully COH can show he’s getting there.
Should be an interesting game.

 

[no_loyalty]

Sanderson missing for Blues is a plus.

 

[hamil99]

Like the look of that team time to get at 'em!!

 

[Northants Sky Blue]

Eccles making way for Allen at DM the only real surprise I guess

If O'Hares on it could be a good night

 

[Johnnythespider]

Attacking line up, should be winning this one I think.
Did anyone else notice that they even have flashing blue lights on the police horses.

Eccles was awful 1st half at Ipswich and Robbins took him off. Second half we were so much better.

Blues and Hooves.

Shame the other 18 games count for nothing then.

I’m going to worry about O’Hare until he has a good game. Hopefully tonight. Can’t watch love so it’s a Saturday game for me

 

[fatso]

No, his wife just had a baby

But she was never in contention to start.

You homophobic bastard!!!

 

[StrettoBoy]

That's a good looking starting line up. You can argue for the odd tweak, such as Eccles for Allen, but I don't see how it can be improved significantly.

The bench looks strong as well. At last we have strength in depth in the squad.

Only two keepers though

 

[EalingSB]

Watched Sky for 10 minutes. Got Deeney and Rowett in the studio and the whole section has been about Blues including an interview with Rooney.

 

[Happy_Martian]

Sky focussing on Rooney and Boringham. Guests are Troy Deeney and Gary Rowatt. As usual, I guess we're not in this race. But also, maybe less pressure on us.

And bet is already on for a Birmingham win, both teams to score, at least 2 bookings and at least 4 corners at 33/1 on SkyBet. Hope I lose the 10p

Someone from the Birmingham marketing should sell flashing blue noses to the Brummie fans.

They always focus on one team for 10 mins then the other team after - it's not that unusual ffs

I'd have gone for Eccles instead of O'Hare - but I'm not MR, and he is absolutely right about what he said in the press this week about his selections and people not knowing what goes on behind the scenes and also how the prep works in line with countering the likely opposition formation/players/style of play!

Grew into the game last week

 

[Nick]

I'm sure there's a helicopter above

 

[Sky_Blue_Dreamer]

Blues and Hooves.

Neigh-nor, neigh-nor

We're the home team. Yet they look at Brum first ? And play their new owners Zoom call to their fans about their future building. Cov chat now shoehorned into the remaining minutes before they move over to the commentators.

 

[TomRad85]

Would have preferred Eccles in CM but other than that, all good. Let's do this.

Yeah point taken actually

Brum sold out their allocation and this is at the £37 level. Bet the announced attendance is still only 24K though
