    I wish I could get there, behind Millwall it's my favourite away day: great pubs in the city and not too much stress to get there. Alright there are some idiots about but every club has them... apart from the walk back to Aston after the play-off penalty shoot out I've never felt intimidated or nervous there, not even after the FA Cup win back in the day....

    Curious. I truly hate the walk back to new St - esp. in the evenings. The problems in the carpark after the pen shootout were awful. I wonder how they will react if we prick their one game bubble.
    Still, I shall go.
    As a general rule, the bigger the fans think their club is (Leeds in particular, but Brum, Wolves & Sheff Wed - laughably, Derby & forest to a lesser extent)) the worse the fans are. That said, things are definitely improving. Almost all clubs fans seem happy to talk about the game on a walk back from the ground.

    Jokanovic doesn't want any surprises!

    Sounds like he is working on the mentality of the team too, we need to be focused if we are to go up this season. We let too many points slip under previous bosses in my humble opinion.

    I think Birmingham are going to make it tight tonight, especially at home with a new gaffer in charge.

    A Brummie supporter I work with is not confident about this game. He can't understand why I am apprehensive.
    We will both be sneaking off to check the score as the morning progresses.

    I did find one on a different site earlier Mex but that has been taken down now. Looks as if it will be Jon Marks and Hornet player.

    Five changes for Watford this evening. Bassong (calf) and Munari (groin) miss out with injuries.

    Good to see McGugan back, well need all our squad, as every season, 46 games and injuries/suspensions and all.

    Keep the otter grounded, I say, give him a reminder of what last season was like for him! Plus - not a bad player to bring on!

    Wonder if Dyer is pleased? Did he play a lot for Leicester last season. Oh, hang on who cares! He can come off the bench and burn it up pace wise with Vydra too!

    With McGugan, Anya, Forestieri, Ighalo and Deeney all playing are we hoping to outscore them?

    Hornet Player just come on. 3CR have the game on all their frequencies if you are in range.
