I've come to terms with our midtable status in the league, we look ok, upper mid very likely, playoffs within reach. That's fine.

 

[Smurph]

He's let himself down badly today mate. Pathetic stuff

Le'ts not over react to a defeat.

 

[ABSwan]

People actually think the manager said, stay back and defend, at half time, give me strength.

We couldn't get going second half, for whatever reason. We waited too long I believe to change it with fresh legs and when we did change it didn't change the dynamic.

Our players tired and they were thugs throughout.

A goal undeservedly ruled offside as well, we should have had a point.

 

[magicdaps10]

Daps says the facts are lying.

Not what I said.

I believe we deserved to come away with a point. Brum had the upper hand 2nd half but they were not really threatening us.

The signs were clear that Brum were getting the upper hand but we held off from the subs.

Benson should have come on for Inoussa rather than Eom.and Idah seems to be doing very little when on the pitch.

 

[Muteswan]

Far better side first half. That was self inflicted and intentional

“Intentional “ seriously?

 

[ABSwan]

Fuck off today Sheehan, cowardly shite

You're giving the impression that you're a right twat

 

[Malaga]

Needed the fresh legs sooner galbraith and Franco looked knacked after an hour

 

[K23]

We looked like a team who had a really tough match 2 1/2 days ago, especially last 20.

 

[magicdaps10]

Le'ts not over react to a defeat.

That 2nd half was on Sheehan.

Subs poor and showed no adventure when they were there for the taking.

 

[Swans Jack]

We mixed things up a lot from Wednesday. I’m not buying the tiredness reason.

I get that but Galbraith, Burgess and Franco all looked tired. Galbraith didn't really show anything and was getting caught out. Birmingham had 7 days rest to train and work on this match we had just over 48 hours +. You could see it.

 

[eteb]

Le'ts not over react to a defeat.

They were there for the taking and he shut up shop at half time

 

[magicdaps10]

Needed the fresh legs sooner galbraith and Franco looked knacked after an hour

Was crying out for changes around 55mins.

 

[tardylum]

It was great in midweek, but we did score all three chances we created in the box and one of those was not really a chance. We can not rely on that. Today was similar to our usual issues, even though there were flashes of good in the 1st half. 2nd half we just did not create or look like creating anything.

6 goals in 6 games is not good enough to challenge. I do not think we have been unlucky either, we just are not a very good attacking side right now.

 

[Smurph]

Little unfair on Idah. We've all seen what a run of game does for a striker.

 

[eteb]

“Intentional “ seriously?

Yes; intentionally sat back and played for the draw. If you can't see that then I suggest a different sport
