MATCHWATCH : Birmingham City (h) sponsored by an utter shambles

[Trigger]

Where's the energy? Jesus we've been massively outplayed that half.

Hello btw. Not really been on here for years. Friend of Leon, don't hold that against me.

[Ascotexgunner]

:token: It's the hope that kills you

[bcubed]

Excellent Championship performance from Birmingham

Quick to close down, physical all over the pitch, quick breaks and some really good finishes

They've done a number on us, helped by the fact we don't fancy the physical aspects of the Championship. Ideally we would like a Prem ref who gives fouls for the slightest thing

[Hound]

Totally outplayed really

Does make you wonder how they are low mid table whilst shite like Bristol city are near the top

[CountryRoyal]

Is plan B Baldock?

if it is I'm off
Will find something on Netflix

Yeah agreed, baldock on and I’m out of here.

It’s crazy how we can’t do to any team what Birmingham did to us (unless they have 10 men of course )

I didn’t think we played that badly until they scored, then it went to shit. Ah well, teams that go up will have to show they can come from behind to win so now is as good a chance as any.

[Gunny Fishcake]

This club should be signed up by the military forces as a form of a mental torture weapon

[NewCorkSeth]

Things just aren't clicking for us and Birmingham are playing well and a lot of you are sounding pretty entitled right now.

Jesus its not like we've been utter shit. We've played worse than this.

Houndy. Not a great watch for you tonight. The worst part is that none of us have any belief they can turn this around. A very lazy and weak first half.

Since the goal we have been toilet.

Yep.

Imagine how they normally play to be where they are. They'll not play a better half this season IMO

[Jagermesiter1871]

Rhinomota, Meite, Joao, Richards and Ejaria all a bit under par, but this feels more like Birmingham playing well.

Think it's a combination of them being very solid and us being too lethargic. No urgency even at 2 nil down.

[jt_1871]

Too much sideways and backward passing. We look so tentative.

Spot on we look knackered and the attitude is all wrong. Big half time talk needed and some changes (we have 5)

Think we've just been outplayed really. They are closing down well and blocking passing routes very well.

[Rax]

That was a half of "Stam Second Season" proportions - we seem so fragile when teams press us - hopefully Pauno will give them a rocket and we'll have a better second half - the lads need to up their game!

[Ascotexgunner]

Oh for a Michael Manset on the bench. He used to dig us out the pooh quite a bit.

We’ve been very poor. Very slow to move the ball forward, players second to the ball, not working anywhere near hard enough to close the opposition down. We are being outworked as well as outplayed.

Houndy. Not a great watch for you tonight. The worst part is that none of us have any belief they can turn this around. A very lazy and weak first half.

Not at all. Brum have played very well, no space anywhere on the pitch. Very tightly marking Olise everywhere

Interesting being here. Moore doesn’t shut up does he? Constant barking orders. Morro a little bit but the others are quiet

Can’t see us turning it round

[Hound]

We’ve actually played the press pretty comfortably tbh. It’s in midfield where we’ve struggled

Yep you can really hear Moore. Constantly shouting at the players. We are so fragile when we fall behind
