He’s still got it. Also, he’s ace. Nice to have a likeable manager again.

Same for us. It's incredible just what a moody/ unlikable manager does to a club.

Even though we fucking hate each other, I do feel for Scunny at the moment with all the staff not getting paid and the owner being a shite.

Nice change to score early rather than conceding.

Keeping Liam Cooper in the team because we won 3-0 last week seems reasonable, except the ball didn’t enter our area last week so he had no opportunity to fuck everything up. When he plays against a team that offers any form of attacking threat you’re asking for trouble.

Hmmmm won 9/10 games, 7 points clear of 3rd place.
Think we might actually go back up. Not saying we'll win the league but promotion looks fairly likely.

From Farke’s press conference just now. threadreaderapp.com/thread/1710275028644679919.htmlHe’s great. In terms of both playing style and personality he’s a natural follow on to Bielsa. Let’s just pretend that whole Marsch/Allardyce fiasco never happened and relegation was due to an administrative error. |

Gap’s already massive, and although we’ve shown to be very good when everything clicks we’re not yet clicking reliably enough. I reckon 4th-6th, lose in the playoffs, get top two next season if we keep Farke and a stable squad. |

Jesus, the refereeing in league two. How is that a free kick to the keeper?

Is it really so long since Birmingham last sacked a manager who had them high in the league so they could bring in a big name former great player with no managerial success to his name that they’ve forgotten what happens?

Some speculate it's the Tom Brady effect. They're bringing in Rooney FFS. Not like it's even Lampard, who has more experience.

I think I'd probably rather have Rooney than Lampard. Both are a pretty low bar, though.

Of the two I would prefer Rooney to Lampard. Hopefully they shit the bed now.

Ridiculous descision, genuinely feel sorry for Eustace (although I'm sure he's been handsomely compensated). Rooney will get slaughtered down the Blues if he doesn't pick up where Eustace left off, but not by me, I'm washing my hands (again) of this club.

The more you look at it, the worse it gets. I'm now a Yorkshire native.
