Not sure this is a good thing. Whilst I can't see how they're going to save themselves, I'd nonetheless welcome the opportunity for the Albion to finish off Holloway's Millwall career a week on Tuesday. In Kevin Keegan style, I'd love it, love it....

 

[Beach Hut]

Can't wait for the McClaren post match interview,

No doubt there will be no quality in the two Birmingham goals

Unless we play like we did at the Amex

Exactly, they were both very lucky. At least that is what McLaren said from the changing room.

I'm sort of hoping we're over that.

Not that I'm bitter or anything, but after all the shit he came out with (yeah, irony) after THAT game, it would be amusing to send him on his hilarious, wacky, football's-funniest-man way.

Apparently Birmingham's only shots on target

It's good to see no runaway teams for the autos for a change. Any of the top 7 have a realistic chance for the top two places so it is nicely poised for an interesting end of season battle.

 

[Hampster Gull]

The bottom three really are poor

Derby County just lost me a 53-1 5 fold

FFS Derby. Talk about wobbling.

Quite - I'm pinning my hopes that all out crap luck is out of the way in those 2 games, how we've only got 1 point from them..... Hey ho....

Let's be honest. It's not luck, is it? It's bad finishing and piss poor defending.

Fear not. Norwich, Watford and Bournemouth still have to visit the mighty albion

If you could do the honours!!

You have to factor in Bournemouth's standard quite dreadful penalty decision in their favour, but other than that, we'd be happy to oblige...

Gutted! The very definition of a coupon buster. Only a 5-1 treble gone for me thankfully.

Of course, but that kind of rules us all out of ever rueing our luck doesn't it?! 97 mins though, I'm not (normally) a ref moaner but fug me, how you add on 3 mins and then play 7 with no subs etc. I'm going to assume it was never a penalty as well

Ha, well if we can attribute piss poor defending and terrible finishing to bad luck, then I can claim that we were chronically unlucky for most of the first half of this season

Having seen your lot in the week, I'm willing to bet that the penalty was the result of your nervy defenders panicking unnecessarily under pressure. Amazing what the pressure of a promotion battle can do to players who've been on top form all season. Not sure who the player was, but the man in yellow who stood and watched whilst Dale Stephens tidied up the loose ball on Tuesday night needs a good kick up the arse for starters.

Now THOSE would be goals that McClaren probably liked even less than the ones you conceded on Tuesday

 

[Stat Brother]

and Rotherham aren't in it.

I suspect you are correct.
