Very very impressive performance. Bikey was solid today and good to see Convey looking almost back to his best. Kitson deserves a mention for taking his chance so well.

zac naloen We've got quite a few yellows today, can't be good for our disciplinary record..


No injuries which will be good.

IIRC, the cut off for 5 bookings is the end of Jan - if you get a 5th booking after that then you get away with a warning. The next "naughty" mark is 10 bookings by the end of March.

Agreed with all of that, can't wait to see Bob in the prem and Bikey is doing his chances of earning a full contract no harm at all. I think with Ingi along side to control him and teach him he will turn into another Sonks.

Also though Lita played really well today, possibly my MOM.

Some great touches from Cox when he came on and Oster played well in the middle.

Lita took his chances well but you'd expect any half decent striker to have scored them. He did miss a free header that on another day could have proved costly.

That miss pales into insignificance compared to Ronaldos open goals miss earlier in the season.

Belter! This must be a sh*t game to watch... Mick Gooding is talking about pissing maths!


It's not that bad :?

I'm quite enjoying it. The pitch really isn't helping matters though, it's like a park field. I don't think there's a level yard on it.


I've got the Lion sodding King on, well my son has, my head's down watching the BBC site and hob nob at the same time.


haha, i watched that two nights ago. I'm watching the match on ppstream, fairly decent quality, and obviously I have one eye on hob nob.


Yeah, good feed. Quite watchable and enjoyed the game. I agree about the crap pitch...

Royal Yank To those who watched, how did simon Cox do?


Cox laid on Lita's second with a nice dinked through ball, and then laid off a similar chance towards the end. Was sorting Lita out nicely. For the short time he was on the pitch, I was impressed.

What a free kick at the end for Larsson.

Bikey MOTM for me, closely followed by Convey.

PS - watched on TVU player. Miiiiiles better and more stable than SOPcast.

Super kick from Larsson but must have shaved the heads of the earthbound wall. Aren't you supposed to jump?

Never mind. Good display, if rather disjointed. Brum looked more like a team who are used to playing together, but we are so much more lethal. The pitch was just horrible and didn't aid our skill players at all. Convey, Oster and seol all looked awkward in possession.

Despite being caught out a couple of times, I'd agree with Bikey for MOM. I thought Lita was more than just his two goals. Worked really hard all game and came deep to help out our rather insipid midfield. disappointed in DLC after last weeks heroics. Too many giveaways and general aimlessness.
