We are not going up. On the other 10, too fucking right we are.
Brum came with a plan to to disrupt, and they did it well.
A points a point, and although it felt like a loss after the momentum we had previous to the break, “you can’t win ‘em all”.

My only criticism, Khadra was ineffective when starting, and should be brought on at the 60 minute mark to change the game.

 

[JJBlade]

If we draw three, and lose one of the next eleven I'll be happy enough

Sacked by November

We have had 10 injuries or more every game this season. Why shouldn't Khadra have started? Two out of Anel, Clark, Robinson, O'Connell, Stevens, Lowe and Osborn would have started.

 

[Nonamedhorse]

He was ineffective and isolated. Much better as an ‘impact player’ through the middle. With Bogle looking like he may come back in the starting 11, it gives us that option.

 

[Sneinton Blade 1952]

I felt empathetic for Khadra today - he was what I'd warned previously on here, a round peg being played in a square hole. As Bogle was played too. This, together with the lack of proper training during the meaningless international break, meant, I feel, that our performance was poor today. Hopefully see an improvement on Tuesday night.

 

[Stretch]

We were decent 1st half today, but (IMO) pissed around too much when we got into decent positions. On the few occasions we did try quick one twos and threaded passes, we opened them up, but then things just weren't quite dropping.

Fair play to Brum though, they soaked it up and looked dangerous at times. For much of the 2nd half they were on top and looked the most likely to score.

All in all, I would have taken a draw at the hour mark, and I think that was a fair result.

 

[Eza Blade]

We’ve absolutely fucked lads. Seasons over after one poor showing. Sack hecky. No contracts for players everyone in car park etc

 

[nopigfansintown]

Injuries are starting to bite. Still, we weren't terrible or anything.

 

[Bowman Blade]

Some teams will come to BDTBL and do what Brum did today because they know if they try to beat us by playing football, then there's only gonna be one winner ! Some of our players have got to have more discipline though (RND & McBurnie in particular) as that could cost us. Stop getting involved and walk away as that is exactly the reaction they are looking for to get somebody sent off. Another ref could have sent either of those 2 off and in a match like that you have to keep McB on the pitch to help at the back from set pieces/corners etc.

 

[Berkshire Blade]

Injuries limiting and only 5 players training due to the international break. I think with that build up still looking ok is more than acceptable

And, have you heard, he's actually finally helping up front now. Big time. Sadly when he went off, we had no threat up front at all.

 

[S64 Blade]

I’m fuming that we aren’t going to win every single game for eternity.

Me too.

 

[Millhousesblade1889]

yesterdays result was due to an imbalance because of injuries. We couldn’t create anything down the left side and as we know Baldock rarely finds his man with his crossing.

Big misses for me were Anel & Lowe yesterday. We win that game with them two

 

[Grappler]

Sloppy defending gifted Brum a goal, because apart from pace and dirty playing, they were crap. There's a reason why they were 17th in the table at kick off.

You can't win em all with half a squad.

Khadra was a sticking plaster on a hole we had. No option to use him as an impact player.

We got through with what we had.

He was playing LWB for probably the third or fourth time.
Other ten games we could have lost at Swansea Preston if they could finish and we were crap at Watford.
Much tougher tests to come now and don’t be to despondent if we go into the next break outside top two

They weren’t crap and both sides put it about a bit

Playing in an unnatural position

 

[mattbianco1]

My only "criticism" was Sharp shouldve hit it 1 touch earlier.
He's not played for a long time though so expectedly rusty

Yep, out of practise unfortunately. Sharp last season bags that.

I’m amazed more folk have not stated this. Training over the last two weeks has been almost zero with so many players absent. This is why international breaks affect us more than most in the championship.

Post match ,Hecky said he'd had an hour on pitch practice. For Khadra playing out of position, that's nothing.

..without Khadra who would have played lwb ?

Agree…good job we’ve won a few or we could be relegated ha ha.
However based on the Reading and Blackburn displays we could go far in the Champions League.

It’s a cliche but don’t go ultra positive based on one win or great performance
and don’t go ultra negative based on one defeat or a bad performance.

Look at the bigger picture and judge us over a series of results and a series of performances,

If he’s happy I’m happy. Big game on Tuesday though & no excuses
