Another match which we just cannot afford to lose.
The countdown to the end of the season is well advanced and we can’t slip any farther behind.
Will the manager play 2 strikers? – No he won’t.
Will he try to attack – No of course not.
Will we sit back in mass defence and hope to grab something on the break – Yes – his standard negative approach to matches.
As with last Saturday, I just can’t see us getting anything from this match. Our attitude will be to stop the opposition from scoring.
Does the manager realise that 15 0-0 draws from our remaining matches will get us relegated?
I have seen some great results for us at St Andrews over the years but tonight I fear the worst.
The depression continues.

Thanks for starting the thread David. I see it the same as you. 2-0 Birmingham without them having to break sweat.

Just 5 hours before kick-off and we didn’t have a thread for this match.
I wonder if either Ken Anderson or Phil Parkinson realise how the mind-numbing football that we play and the financial antics re winding-up orders etc is killing off all interest in our club.
All passion has been drained from our supporters.

Had we have got even a point at home then we could have looked to carry a little momentum.
Sometimes fans get complacent and a relegation fight brings out the best in them. Were 4 points off with plenty to go and theres just nothing.
Parky must be doubting he will ever get his owed bonus. He must have serious doubts where his next job will be. Certainly not championship. Id say lower league one at best. Think he should have played it a little clever and gone after the Sky game, annoucned in his post match , amidst the protests and then Sky could say "who can blame him?"
Players look like shells, Parky given up, fans have had enough and Ken is watching the ship sink. We need a shot in the arm from somewhere. Management, a player speaking out, a real buyer.

I really want to say screw the whole fxcking lot of them until things change, but once in always in as us fans say Wanderers till we die. So we keep hoping and praying that Parky will change his tactics and we start trying to win some games. COYWM

There is a more attackng look tonight, and the BN is promising a big story tomorrow. Maybe they think we'll get a point tonight or is it something more decisive ?

Dont know where you're looking Kenglo if you think that's an attacking line up. It won't be two up top because Donaldson will be out wide right in place of Ameobi and there is yet again absolutely no creativity in midfield with the exclusion of Oz, Murphy and Vela. Don't be fooled by seeing two strikers start as it will still only be one up top. If we get anything tonight it will be a fluke like the home game but I fear a big defeat I'm afraid as the players have zero confidence and look completely done for before they start. Let's just hope Marc's comment about another interested party is true because I see no other positivity.

Fair play to Oz. Must have a fairly decent attitude to travel the country from Bristol to icy sheffield and Birmingham with absolutely no chance of getting a run out.
As W63 said dont be fooled by 2 "strikers" Donaldson wont see the inside of the opponents box.
Another lack lustre team for me. 35 possesion max.

The proof will be in seeing us attacking for a change and maybe surprise Birmingham by sneaking up on them and stealing a point. COYWM

Halftime 0-0 and dare I say it we have had a few chances we seem to be creating a bit more and for now we are throwing bodies in the way of shots long may it continue. Strange but the game is on the red button on sky. COYWM

Actually 63 they are both up top, but the service to them is the usual hoof for the most part, Connolly and old O'Neill are quite prominent but the craft so far has come from Noone. Maybe the right substitution in the second half will make a difference, though maybe the best news wont be the result tomorrow. We shall see.

Yes definitely a better show from the Whites but there's still no chemistry between the players, we desperately need to stick with a settled side so players can get used to each other. Somehow though I just can't see Birmingham being as poor in the second half sadly but fingers crossed let's hope so and how good would it be if Connor came on and scored the winner?
