Im thinking a 1-1 draw (King) and then a 3-1 win to us at the Ricoh and break attendance records (Sheff and Baker).

 

[SkyBlueMania]

everyone feeling as confident after Birmingham's performance last night? West ham fans were fairly quiet i thought, think we will have more influence on Saturday!

 

[Gallagher]

The fact that Brum have played 120 minutes this week before the game with us, fills me with confidence. They'll be on a high but could potentially have a cup 'hangover' and be looking past us. There still in a relegation battle and with a Wembley date already confirmed they may be looking past this game. We'll be well up for it and if it's Westwood's last game he could pull off a blinder.
My prediction is we'll either sneak a 1-0 or a draw and beat them back at the Ricoh.

 

[Jimthor]

Definitely got a lot of optimism. If we do win i expect it to be a sneaky 1 goal victory. Could see 1-0 or a draw. Dead excited!

 

[Gallagher]

Just read on Sky Sports that Brum are likely to make a lot of changes, with Gardner, Johnson and Jerome all doubts, and with Dann also out; we should feel confident.

[InterSkyBlues]

Can someone start a thread to discuss the match please? I couldn't go but would love to know what SBT members thought of our performance. Interested to know how Connor did in the middle.

I don't think it was Thomas' fault but he was well out of his depth. He seemed a bit like the person at school nobody had confidence in so they didn't pass to them. It isn't his fault but a bit of a big game to throw him in.
