Blackpool thumped at home by Coventry, realising that the gift that is Qpr doesn't come along more than twice a season !
We made that happen giving them the impression they were good, maybe it will work with Birmingham too?
Probably be a relief,this groundhog horror show is torture..at least we might get a draw now and again
Punxsutawney Phil has seen his shadow and we're in for 6 more weeks of winter (read - losing). Best get back in our holes. And NO, that is not meant as a euphemism.
Well that was another abysmal performance, had nothing until Armstrong came on, thought there might be a performance after that shambles Tuesday, how wrong was I, lost for words
That was very hard to watch. Outdone by their pace and then a goal mouth scramble that went their way at 2 m 25s precisely. The only highlight for us was Seny's save. Top drawer. Why, why, why does Armstrong only get to come on at 76 mins?! We looked more dangerous and definitely looked more like scoring after he came on. Surely Ainsworth can see that? We are in deep trouble and it's hard to see where any more points are coming from. Championship, L1 or wherever, COYRssss (but with rather a heavy heart).
Confidence completely shot to pieces. And that's just me. We've somehow managed to slip down to another notch of awfulness despite how unlikely that seems. Quite how Chris Martin managed to go from a very good MOTM last Saturday to his sh*t show today is the latest mystery in a season full of them. If Ainsworth persists with long ball tactics (as he surely must) but does not play Armstrong then I just might be the first to call for his head. On the other hand he's tailor made for League 1...
The start to the second half said it all. Pass from the kick off back to Dunne and an immediate hoofed up and under to the edge of their box. Cleared obviously. Incredibly, Birmingham were actually worse than we were but despite a great deal of possession we never really created a clear cut chance. If we're playing long, Armstrong must start alongside Dykes. The problem with the long ball stuff though is that Dieng's kicking is atrocious.
