Matchday Thread Birmingham City v PNE | 13.10.26 | KO:8PM | Championship

[shabbagaz]

Hemmings and Ridsdale legacy.

 

[Longshanks]

GA was the wrong manager appointment at the wrong time. We look devoid of any ideas attacking and defensively wise. Fucking breaks my heart to watch this shite.

 

[wld]

Sure that throw in should have been retaken and not a drop ball

I wasn’t paying attention but it depends on whether the extra ball was on the pitch when the throw was taken.

 

[monky1234]

I know this is said in jest but I honestly thought he looked all right.

Yeah, it wasn't said at any slight towards him. Just the collapse that's ensued.

No idea why he decided to bring Burgzorg on and put him up front, Lang on the right and Devine left. Could've just done a like for like change if he wanted to bring him on. Everyone's all over the gaff anyway so it doesn't really matter.

 

[Benito]

We’ve got so many players who have no positive attributes. Blows my mind that most of them are professionals. Most will be in that PFA free agent team in years to come.

 

[Hodgeheg 2.0]

There’s not enough expletives existing to describe what we’ve witnessed in the last 15 minutes

I can lend you a few.

 

[joycey]

Ridsdale and Wallace should be resigning out of shame tonight. They have put this utter shambles together, utterly embarrassing

Awful, worse pne team I have ever seen in 50 years , no idea , no confidence, no talent, division 1 here we come , defence is as bad as I have ever seen, no better up front.

 

[northend nevets]

Still another 36 games.....

Feels like we are at least 3/4 though the season....

 

[LonsdaleWhite]

It's ok though.

The previous management team were adamant that we didn't need to refresh and reinforce the CB positions this summer just gone.

Cheers Paul, you twat.

Well yeah, but we’re shite all over.

We don’t create anything. We don’t manage the midfield. And our goalkeeper cannot kick.

 

[Dirty Harry]

This has fuck all to do with the manager.

Yep. In terms of the managerial appointment, it's not the owners who made the wrong choice. It's Graham Alexander who did.

 

[Durutti]

Poor Grezza. What an awful choice he's made.

I mean, I did say this. Why the living fuck anyone would have wanted this is beyond me..he's more deluded than many of you lot in the PNE love train. Poor bastard. Would have probably got a bigger city club promoted anyway.

 

[Mancunian White]

Neil and Grayson managed to cobble together functional defences out of thin air at times. I remember the former fielding Calum Woods at centre half with Andy Boyle and Kevin O'Connor and we still looked better organised than this.

I know Storey and Lindsay aren't very good and Hughes is passed it, but surely they're better centre halves than Andy fucking Boyle.

 

[jcpne]

I still cannot for the life of me how a proffesionally operating football club looks at this squad and says "yeah you know what lads, we're absolutely sound without another CB".

It's bordering on fucking criminal.

 

[simo]

I wasn’t paying attention but it depends on whether the extra ball was on the pitch when the throw was taken.

There should have been no confusion. The second ball was long gone. Storey was mentally about 10 seconds behind everyone else as usual.

 

[grarmy]

Just get to half time 1-0 ffs! These dickheads are going to blow this bloody takeover aren’t they? I knew this would happen- it’s literally the one season we can’t go down!!

 

[Wisemen say]

This squad is devoid of any quality,any fight, any pride, we are a disgrace and relegation fodder.
GA/CL you have inherited a complete load of shit and must now realise it, I think you have inherited a poisoned chalice.🥴☹️😡

 

[Doc Brown]

Hecky wasn't as bad as people imagined .I mean look at this . Totally embarrassing.

He had 4 transfer windows to put this fucking squad together!

 

[beagleman]

How the fuck have we ended up with this shower of shit ... invertebrates the lot of them

 

[mtpne1977]

Switched it off.
I ain't watching that fucking garbage.
I hope there's some massive dressing room punch up at half time because these players aren't playing for each other or the fans.
Devine is a clueless twat of a player, no class. What is happening lies at the door of the owners. Nothing on GA and Luketti.
Some of the players the spineless cunts and GA should call them out.

I've switched it off also. Absolute shambles, so called professional footballers. I've seen some shite following North End but this lot are the worst. Birmingham won't have an easier game this season

 

[Durutti]

This is all on the owners / Ridsdale.

Stop being so passive as a fan base

This. This is the right answer.
