Buchanan definitely better than Dasilva.

Not on tonight’s viewing

Robins did mention Palmer quite a lot in his post match interview….. who is he going to replace, Simms I guess…

I honestly hope not. The only way Wright and Simms are ever going to reach their optimal effectiveness is by playing together. Tonight showed there's promise there, they just need to get that understanding and they'll be away.

 

[mmttww]

How many there tonight? Buzzing for Weds.

 

[Macca]

One of those strikers sparks and the season could get very exciting. So much created tonight. Best performance of season

 

[Chris1987]

That Sakamoto performance was absolutely fantastic. He deserves a lot of plaudits, as well as Calum.
Must be undroppable at the moment.

Simms needs a run in the side. Does him no favours with the off the bench cameos. Palmer is not the future imo

 

[Nick]

Ref was excellent.

Apart from the hand ball

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

He was torn apart tonight and both our goals came down their side

Sakamoto would have done that to most left backs in this division on tonight’s performance

What an interview from O'Hare on CWR. He's a good lad.

 

[pusbccfc]

Didn't want to mention the contract though

26 and a half I think roughly

I think he’ll go to be honest, but that’s not for tonight

Roads are chaos trying to get away from the ground.

Just watched Rooney's interview. He's so out of his depth it's almost funny. The least motivational, inspirational, and coherent manager I can remember seeing. I have a soft spot for the Blues after they helped us out, and I do feel sorry for their fans to have to put up with this charlatan.

 

[David O'Day]

Was it their left back saka sent off to tesco?

Allen, although I have to say I thought Allen was very good today, a couple of missed passes and a bit weak sometimes, but a very good option

Sounded absolutely clueless as opposed to Robins who talks clearly

He's not pulling his punches is he and actually talking a lot of sense.

Just watched that Rooney interview on Sky, he’s quite weird. Talks really quietly and looks very timid. When you think how he played the game he is a very different manager it seems. Can’t imagine him inspiring a group of dejected players. He looked desperate for the interview to end and just churned out slightly negative cliches which he got wrong. Birmingham will struggle while he’s there I think.

 

[Ashdown]

Two good strikers short of a top 4 team ! ( Robins will know that )
Love it Callum , top lad ! Cmon City

 

[Brighton Sky Blue]

He's basically telling the players to just ignore Rooney and do what worked before. Not bad advice

 

[Paxman II]

It was a good performance, but still concerns about our finishing. If not for O'Hare tonight and for all our obvious superiority, it would have been 0-0. Wright just frustrates a lot. Chances he has he should be scoring. Simms needs game time. The promise is there though. Sheaf had a bit of an off night tbf. Others like Sako and O'Hare, Allen were top notch. Shout out to Bidwell, another very good performance from him. We were sloppy in moments but other times really good on the ball. O'Hare's presence changes the whole dynamic of the side.
Confidence high now, so we go into tough fixtures ahead with plenty of optimism.

Better opposition would have scored a few against us tonight. Unfortunately for them, if we'd taken our chances it would've been a humiliation

 

[BlueSkiesForever]

Oh, go on then, but can we take it in turns?

Yeah go on then

 

[Grendel]

Best game of the season by a mile - really enjoyed it

Can’t remember more than one or two clear chances to be honest

They did get into a number of good positions and were pretty wasteful. Still we were comfortable value for the win

100%, we outclassed them in every department.
Also Sakamoto is pure class, technically great, quick, nimble and most importantly he never quits. As good as O’Hare’s goals were Sakamoto was MOTM for me.

…and a Hamer-esque midfielder too to be honest

our top two tonight (not including Saka as he was immense) will come good, but another quality CF in the mix wouldn’t hurt

He got the job based on name and is probably getting paid a fair whack. Can't really blame him but he's not the best.

We've took the piss out of them for years now. Second year running I nearly felt sorry for them. What on Earth were they thinking with Rooney?

Basket case even with the new owner.

 

[Briles]

Birmingham were absolutely shit. Who was the Sausage saying ohare should fuck off?

Totally agree , love his passing too , never seems to overhit or underhit it . Only slight criticism , he needs to scream for the ball when he is in decent positions cause some of the attacks tonight could’ve played him in a lot earlier

 

[SkyblueDad]

Who’s bothered about pissing Rooney that’s for the Blues noses to worry about, just savour what we have here, team is slowly but surely developing into a formidable team get the transfers right in January and we will kick on.
