    Firstly very happy with our 2nd half performance tonight we seem to have found our bounce again and after the interview with Adkins I am very positive.

    My question to you guys is BIRMINGHAM.

    Look like a side unstoppable currently playing well getting brilliant results they much remind me of us in the first half of the season and fair play to them considering they have already played a lot more games than us due to europa league commitments.

    I would take a point now no matter what!

    So are we finding our feet again or are Birmingham on a crest of a wave as we were at the start of the season and it will be simply backs against the wall time?

    Thoughts thank you! COYR

    Just waiting for Redknapp to sign Zigic, you know how twitchy he gets at this time!
    We'll be fine, good performance tonight, players finding their feet & coming back, should be a cracking game.

    There are two automatic spots and we are not in a major slide..we are second by two points. No reason we can't have one of those spots when you look at the fixture list. After Saturday (whatever the result) we will have played the major sides twice....we have a strong side, with recent additions, I am as confident as you can be.

    Question I have with Birmingham is whether those extra games and their fairly small squad will catch up to them, either in injuries or tired legs in the final months. No doubt that they're a dangerous team, though; we're going to have to play a full 90 minutes of the quality we displayed in the second half tonight to get something.

    2 big games for Cardiff and Southampton!!

    Cardiff v Blackpool
    Birmingham v Southampton

    Hoping we can both draw these but realistically we should beat Blackpool need to win these home games!!

    I got a feeling these draws against lesser opponents might of cost us dearly...

    How are Birmingham doing so god damn well they'd sold 14 players n as far as I can see haven't brought anyone in its unbelievable!!

    Good luck Saturday (draw be best result) but rather you guys win to knock the wind out of them n stop the momentum

    Last point is good I feel if we play as we did in the 2nd half tonight we can get at least a point if not more but currently its a big if.

    Birmingham are playing as we did in the first half of the season and as you rightly pointed out they may get tired or have a bad run towards of the end of the season.

    however that is not the case on Saturday (unless we can show them who's the real bosses of this league) :1980_boogie_down:

    Brum will be a very tough game, I think it'll be a draw. West Ham have Milwall at home that will be tough too.

    This is why they started so badly imo, had all the Europa League games to contend with, so hopefully it will catch up with them towards the end of the season. Have a feeling it won't of by Saturday though
