Match Preview;
So, after Sunday's thrashing at home to Boro, we next head to Birmingham, to face a side who are higher than us in the table (12th on 49 points), but who have lost their last three, to Charlton, Boro and Millwall. Their top scorers are Jay Stansfield and Marvin Ducksch with 10 each, then Demarai Gray with 5, so it is clear where their main threat comes from. Fancy having TWO strikers who consistently score goals. The mind boggles. They look to have a decent squad, and it'll be good to see BOS (Bright Osayi-Samuel) play again, always liked him...alongside Jack Robinson, Tyler Roberts, Ethan Laird and Dion Sanderson. Did they send scouts to our training ground? Their manager is former Wales youth team, and Tottenham coach, Chris Davies. Davies left Spurs to take over at Birmingham in June 2024, and has now managed 100 games at the club. He's won 59, drawn 21 and lost 20, so a decent enough record.
As for us, I've spent the last few days trying to forget about Sunday afternoon. It was awful. No ambition to get forward and so easy for them to cut us open and score. By the time their fourth went in, it looked like the ground was already pretty empty, so hats off to anyone who is still making the trip to St Andrew's this Wednesday night. I know we don't have much to play for, and so as I've said, I'd rather see younger players given the chance to get some experience. If that isn't going to happen...I want to see a lot more fight and determination from those who are starting, and at least a sign that they want to still win games, and pick up as many points as they can before the end of the season.
