[Archived] Birmingham Preview

[DE.]

We've been letting Birmingham back into the match and their equaliser is probably deserved, not sure it was a freekick though.

We need to step it up a gear if we want to get something out of this match.

[Look4Me]

Stupid by Pedersen. freekick 1-1.

Don't blame Pedersen..blame Clattenburg. It was a ridicolous free kick.

He doesn't give us anything!

[G Somerset Rover]

I know it worked last match but that was Chelsea and we had to set up cautiously; there's no way that Roberts should be up front alone against a team outside the top 4.

I'd still argue that he should never be played as the striker in a 4-5-1 as he's not got the attributes we need there. I think he's even admitted that himself before.

Seems as though we still have the huge problem of where goals are going to come from.

We've really dropped off at the start of the second half. Not enough passing it to goal at the moment. Maybe a change to freshen up the midfield is needed.

So it wasn't a free kick, Brown is badly positioned and Andrews gets the blame

Normal service is resumed

Watch it and retract!

And Clattenberg fails to give an identical "foul" at the other end!

Watch the replay, watch the defensive wall. Tell me what you think.

[Mr. E]

Penalty not given for us. The consistency is 0.

[RibbleValleyRover]

2-1 Dunny. Take him off

Cackenberg books him for celebrating.

[modes98]

Dunny really shouldn't have started 2-1, get in!

[Pinch]

Dunny!

[The Rover of Finland]

Dunny really shouldn't have started 2-1, get in!

Wuhuu!!!!!!!!!maybe he scores hat trick if we demand Sam take him off?!

And up popps Dunny!!

We need to wrap this lad up in cotton wool!!

Get in.

[Mr. E]

Dunn is simply great.

How Hart is supposed to be England quality is light years beyond me though. It's a joke really.

[philipl]

Clatteremberg missed a penalty but gave Rovers a corner having seen Carr put the ball out deliberately with his arm for a corner.

Great stuff from Hart backing up Shilton's argument that he should be in the England squad- went walkabout for Dunny's second and was at faault fr the first as well.

[DE.]

'kin ell Dunny, not a bad way to answer your critics and stick it to "BIG club"

[Pinch]

Pederson should have shot it.

[Balwer]

Hart may not be that great but Green let in three against Wolves last night and James has let in four tonight, including a shocker first one.

That's why I don't agree with people who say "Robinson is not England quality". Heck, he would be starting if it was up to me.

Clattenbrum

2137: RED CARDS (Mancini and Moyes)

Ha!

[RibbleValleyRover]

Salgado in a lot of pain. Looks like he will have to come off, which means Dunny stays on...

Long term injury potentially?

[DE.]

How is it all of our players seem to be getting injured, yet Birmingham seem to get all the free kicks?

[RibbleValleyRover]

Long term injury potentially?

I only have acess to the radio but they reckon it was bad. They keep going on about how tough he is, so if he is in pain then its definitely something. Looks like he is going to continue playing, which is dangerous if its serious.

[graddomi88]

Long term injury potentially?

He's back on.. so perhaps not
