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

Honestly the only positive future I see is relegation, and a new owner then a complete clean out top to bottom - staff and players.

Any other scenario and we’re free falling.

And I can’t even cling onto hope atm that will be a possibility
 
Devine is the next Marcus Maddison. All the talent but none of the attitude. Non-league by 27

There’s no way that should’ve been a drop ball

Ah well. Properly game over now. Hate every single one of them

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

Agree - but it was a very marginal decision that I don't have a problem with.

Watch the ref roll it beautifully away from our defender right onto their lad's left foot - giving him critical extra time - and also able to whip it into the box earlier. That's where the MASSIVE problem was. Ref's been good - but that was astonishingly bad.

This is the team the day we were relegated at Deepdale in 2011.

I think 8 of them would start for us today.
 
it’s hard to put into words how awful and unlikeable this team is.

Of our great squads since Grayson we’ve kept Storey, Lindsay, Potts and Hughes, all of whom are mercenaries who have stolen a wage and at no point have been good enough.

Our usual serious quality loans has now made way for failed champ players - Gibbs hated by Norwich fans, Burgzorg one of the most ridiculed players in EFL, and Wiley seemingly won’t even see the pitch again à la Calvin Ramsay.

I’m surprised we haven’t gone down yet, and this now is simply what you get for having a prehistoric backroom setup that lucked out getting the likes of Pearo, DJ, Robbo, Gally, Hugill on the dirt cheap. That luck dried up and we’ve been left with turgid, desperate football for years.

The only thing we can pray for is Zedan is serious about buying the club relegation or not, and maybe we can have a Birmingham/Ipswich esque rise back.
 
I’m speechless, embarrassed and have rarely witnessed such a predictable collapse.
Small, Thompson and maybe Devine shouldn’t emerge for the second half.
Club should give travelling fans a full refund.
 
So GA doesn’t believe in first impressions. He prefers to judge people’s character over a period of time. Get real Graham, you don’t have time!

Il say it and il say it again. It was a diabolical decision to appoint alexander who plays exactly the same turgid football as hecky. What on earth did we expect. The board needed a change, a foreign manager with new ideas and we get a defensive 5 at the back merchant again shite

Please tell us who this imaginary foreign manager is ?? Seems to be a forum catchphrase but he never has a name.
 
Been coming for years this. You get what you pay for, we fully deserve to be where we are. When the inevitable happens I am not actually certain we will hold our own in league 1.

We needed a total clearout. This hasn't happened and all the coaches are still in situ, there's no wonder nothing has changed.

Club is still rotten. We are in deep deep shit, it's not only this season that concerns me but where we go after that.

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.🥴☹️😡

Ched was the last one we had
 
Ridsdale and the recruitment team giving us this squad should all be sacked tonight. Pep wouldn’t get a tune out of these talentless and worst still, gutless players
