I wonder what team we will see. I imagine it will be as Saturday but with Madine for Heskey.
But he may revert to two wingers?
I think our approach was sounder. Clearly Dervite should be dropped. I think too Vela should make way perhaps for Wilson. Otherwise it would be a good idea to play Silva rather than Feeney ( who, psst in case Neil is listening, was really pretty average on Sat) and for me Madine would be behind Woolery and indeed pretty much everyone in a race for the ball.
But Neil will go as predicted...and give Deano more food for thought if any is needed?

It would indeed be a surprise if more changes were to be made unless forced by injuries, but a similar set up to Saturday with the one winger gives the team a fighting chance...the midfield worked hard, and to good effect for much of the game, particularly in protecting an off colour defence, Holding obviously excepted. Should the others step up to something approaching his current form I would feel confident of a repeat of Neil's first game in charge at St Andrews...Clough's ability to create something from nothing compensates for his lack of total involvement, which should improve with a run of games. There have been some signs, however infrequent , that Madine and Clough can offer something as a partnership... away at MK Dons springs to mind, when a combination of better luck and more composure in front of goal would have led to an emphatic win, rather than a single goal defeat which was self inflicted. Here's hoping for something positive on the field!

No away wins all season so far, in fact, most end in defeat. Only 3 (or is it 4?) away wins in total under Lennon's control. Birmingham pushing for a play off spot. I wouldn't put money on us winning this one. More interested to see if he drops Amos after such public critiscism.

I suspect that if Amos isn't injured as previously mentioned then Lennon's not going to drop him, no way!! I'd drop him!! Can't go any worse than Rachubka. If Dervites name is on the team sheet, even as sub, then we're destined for defeat. He reminds me of that 'top striker' that Souness once recruited only to find that he'd never kicked a ball in his life. Birmingham 2 Bolton 1

Madine been dropped/axed from squad (possible bust up with NL). Amos a doubt because of an ankle injury (that might be a euphemism for dropped) Feeney playing up top same as Saturday (God help us) with ? Who knows. Not expecting anything from this game. It's a loss of any score.

It's a loss of any score. I'm not so sure. We won't create much, but I think that midfield is more balanced and they will struggle to break us down. 0-1.

How often do we concede from our attack?
Badly delivered free kick from Feeney and within seconds Birmingham are up the other end. Terrible attempt at tackle by Moxey and Donaldson unmarked in middle. Just like at Brighton.
Sums up our season - created very little and always likely to concede

Also, Zach Clough is not the one for a lone striker role at all
When Dervite goes off, why not bring Woolery on?

Why not bring an attacking player on?
We have to score - in fact we have to win. Birmingham keeper not had a shot to save yet.
For God sake, do some attacking

Terrible terrible game management
We have to win games and we play so negatively
Sub's come on 7 mins from time instead of 20 mins
Shocking management
We need to score goals so what has Woolery done wrong other than score the winner in our last win.

I'm seriously hacked off now What does it take to get this shit excuse for a manager away from our club??? I'm hating him more than Freedman and that's an understatement
Totally useless
