    Fair point. I don’t actually care who wins!

    Ideally both would lose tbh but with that not being an option I'd prefer Brum to!

    Not impressed by Brum. Playing like Saints on a very bad day. Slack passing, poor ball control and lackadaisical. Only Grey looks bothered.

    Roberts could be a great loan signing by Birmingham. If he can stay fit throughout the season.

    Yep. 3 up at half time already.

    Lampard proving a few people wrong. Fair play to him.

    Ripping it up at the moment

    Good times for their fans, playing well and now own their own stadium.

    Interesting to see if they can keep their run going

    Not trendy enough.

    Then they get angry at SR for hiring trendy managers only.

    Reckon they will. This year’s Ipswich. Got some impressive squad depth too. Rudoni isn’t even playing and he’s their best player.

    Proving a few people wrong? Were there lots who dismissed him as a manger of one of the stronger championship squads? Because he proved he could do that ages ago. It was as an over promoted premier league manager that he was out of his depth

    100% proving people wrong. Lots of people claimed he did well at Derby purely because of Chelsea loanees. He didn't even do badly at Chelsea, especially considering the transfer ban.

    Cov won 5-0 in the end. They've scored 27 goals already from 9 games.

    Cov's fixture list is interesting with most of the tougher opponents comings consecutively in December following a fairly gentle opening 15 games. Looks very favourable and allows them to really gel before facing tougher opponents.

    People scoffed whenever he was linked with us. So yes. Proving a lot of our fans wrong.
