    Ironic that Blackburn sent Birmingham down as their manager is John Eustace who was sacked by Birmingham this season when they were 6th!

    The madness of bringing Rooney in is all to apparent just bloody crazy I feel for the genuine blues fans.

    Unbeaten at home in 16 matches (5th November) and we figure pretty high in the various form tables.

    The whole squad has confidence and battle but quality is shaky. Three players out for a while figured today which was great to see.

    I’ve got a good feeling.

    Pitch.

    I have no idea how we are going to beat you over two legs.
    The coaching staff don't know either.
    We have lost all confidence and belief and I really don't think we can get it back this season.
    This is when you rely on characters and leaders who can motivate and I don't see a single one, maybe with the exception of Connor Roberts.
    I counted a single shot from us second half and that was from a set piece.

    Anything can happen over these two legs, I we need a sizeable lead into the second leg, your gaff is tough.

    It was, less so now. Genuinely Leeds look clueless going forward and shaky defensively. If Leeds don't score first, which they've stopped doing lately, then you win and Leeds have conceded early recently.....

    I recognise the job Farke has done this season but he has been out managed in games recently and seemingly has no in game tactical awareness (or set piece specialist, we must have had 150+ free kicks and corners without scoring!).

    For those going to the play offs. Don’t become too disheartened as anything can happen.

    We came into them in bad form (we did win our last two but went 8 without a win)

    I was at both legs of ours last year (0-4 / 5-1). If that shows you anything, it’s that nothing is guaranteed. I doubt anyone thought we’d get through after the first leg let alone go up.

    Such a brilliant result. After years of refusing to go down like a turd stuck in a toilet, they finally drop. After being owned by some truly dreadful owners, their new "saviours" are the ones to finally get them out of the division, just not in the direction they hoped for. That's twice they've sacked a manager when in 6th to then appoint absolutely terrible managers in their place. Good riddance, and apologies to the good supporters of League 1, not all people from the city are like them.

    Well the new US owners of Birmingham didn't want to be in the Championship next season. thinking Eustace wasn't the man and a marquee name was needed............ and got what they wanted!
