Very reminiscent of the final days of Trump. Sad! No. That is what you were implying. You have no sense of balance. Rooney was left with a paper thin squad that even after bringing in 5 loans has been decimated again. But we made enough chances and didn't take them. If that had been under Cocu we'd still be passing the ball along the back four. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He closed down almost no-one and should have been sent off for the challenge on Armstrong(?). Were you actually watching the match? It was provably Bird’s best match, he pushed forwards and passed forwards. And the striker was ready going down before Bird challenged. Apart from that, it was pretty spot on.

We won't be a club that is going down with stability. Your name is Lord Halifax and I claim my 5 guineas. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gee SCREAMER !! Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 3 minutes ago, Wistaston Ram said: Truly gutted, but we have to hold our nerve now and grind out a couple of results. Unfortunately going down will not quite be the same as in 1984 and I fear how much further we might fall. Anyway on to Preston and just wish I could be there to support the team, I hate watching this unfold on TV. UTR Exactly this. Won't be any signing of top division players with something left in the tank like the old days. They won't be affordable and won't drop down. Also with likely Wednesday, Ipswich, Sunderland, Portsmouth etc the league is much tougher, the whole landscape has changed . Anyone who thinks it will be a jolly reminiscence of the old days is deluded or simply trying to make themselves feel better. Absolute disaster financially and for the future of the club.

We can’t be trusted away from home. Too prone to self sabotage. I hope you won’t be offended when I say you’re one of the more pessimistic posters on the forum. Your confidence in our fate is reassuring, so I thank you. I’m still pooping it mind. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You spent the whole last year slating Cocu for a top half finish. Now Rooney is going to relegate us with the same squad. Did Cocu do better than you gave him credit for, or is Rooney rubbish? It's one or the other. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bald Eagle's Barmy Army Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 If Birmingham beat Rotherham on Sunday, we will all be thinking we’re fine again. Still a long way to go and I do think we can win our home games and that will keep us up. People saying we deserve to go down - no we don’t, we have been poo all this season but I’m not sure we deserve to go down. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StarterForTen Posted April 16, 2021 Share Posted April 16, 2021 I know people have been saying that the last minute penalty claim should have been irrelevant if we'd been able to defend and/or take the chances created but you have to say it was a stone-waller. Ive watched it back three times and it wasn't even debatable. And the ref was superbly sighted too. Must have had a tight train connection and the extra two minutes to take the spot kick would have caused him the be stuck in Crewe for three hours. In which case, I can understand his thinking.

Clarke was nowhere near fit and Wisdom... well, let’s see who gives him a contract next season because I’ll be amazed if he’s not on the free agent list by September. failure to hit the target cost us the match,we had enough clear chances first half to have had the game dead and buried Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
