2-1 vs Reading
0-3 vs Watford
1-0 vs Swansea
0-0 vs Brentford
7 points out of 12, all against top 6 sides is a great set of results
Two consecutive clean sheets too...19 -
I think Lee can be a good motivator, as long as he doesn't lose the dressing room i think he will be fine.3

Results have been great given the opposition that Lee has faced since taking over... But apart from defeats against Barnsley and Bristol City (the last two games for Karanka) the form for Birmingham has been pretty consitent over the last ten games
e.g. Bowyer's games in Bold

This was also a good time to play Brentford (4 draws on the bounce and only 3 wins from last 11) especially as Birmingham didn't actually manage a single shot on target and Swansea (4 defeats on the trot and only once scored more than one goal in their last 13 matches).0 -

It's old school management, like Mouronhio, go in there get them to blindly believe in the master. Work them HARD consistently.
Then 2 years in the team is like a battered wife scared and shaking in the corner.
It works, but it has a limited lifespan.

Maybe he will surprise me and was just burned out by the time he left us but unless he learns a more conciliatory side I can't see him changing his style, which comes with a fairly short lifespan in management terms.3 -
Impact manager. Let’s see how he does next season.2

This summer (if they don't go up) they'll sell Toney, look for another bargain and then go again.2 -

"Afternoon everyone. It's a sunny day, the birds are singing, the pitch looks brilliant, go out there and show everyone how good you are."
"DJ, I want blood pouring out of your feet by the end of today. Albie, pull out of a tackle and I'll break your legs. Any more defensive f88k ups Pearce, you're out of the club. Chuks keep your shots down you f88kwit."

They had ground issues but I've always considered them a reasonably well supported team whatever league they were in and always had much better away support than us .14 -

terrific point gained at the Bees, although the Bees are in bad form and are the new draw experts, in the Champ0

I think the ground is going to have there capacity enlarged to about 35,0000

Brighton always had good support. A proper club.
Brentford appear to be 'Jonny come late-lies' at first glance, but I was surprised to see that they were a successful team in the early part of the last century.
I think the truth is that it always hurts when the clubs that we have always looked down upon as minnows with less support than ourselves have risen considerably in the last ten or so years when we have plummeted to the depths of football irrelevance due to our succession of shithouse 'owners'.
The likes of Bournemouth, Brentford and, most distastefully of all, the stripey heron-worriers spring to mind. Ouch.
I'm really hoping that Tommy et al can do something about restoring the balance in the next few years!5 -
Always find these arguments rather spurious. There is a perceived pecking order in football about what is a large and a small football club, which is of course obvious, i.e. Liverpool vs Accrington S. The blurred edges around what is a medium sized club is pronounced in England because there are so many of them, us included.
The only certain thing in football is that Millwall and Palarse are shit.5 -
Wasn't slagging the fanbase off, just pointing out they've picked up a load of Sussex Premier League fans. Next you'll be telling me that every ST holder we had in the Prem was die hard Charlton.
