On a train back to London. I thought we looked very decent today, much better than Brentford, which was the last away game I attended. We were scrappy but we were not by any means outclassed. Norwich had more of the game for sure but, off side effort aside, I never really felt they would score. There were a few moments where we looked quite dangerous. My big frustration was O'Dowda in the second half. If he could improve his decision making then there would be a Hell of a player there...

Norwich have to be the favourites but we have had tough games on paper at Reading and Wolves and emerged with four points. I would be very happy with a point and bloody ecstatic with a win. I had a poor night's sleep and am feeling a bit under the weather so I hope it is an entertaining enough game to stop me falling asleep in my seat! I'm going for a 2-2 draw...

Bit patronising IMO. Anyone who wants to drink will do so before and it suggests the only problems will come from away fans when, to be honest, Birmingham have a similar sized minority of trouble makers historically as we do. All this does is just stops anyone who fancies a quick social pint at the ground from doing so. I don't tend to drink at games 'cos, to be honest, my bladder struggles to manage 45 minutes without me needing a wee in any case but, if home fans can then so should away fans...

I've wanted LJ to leave since January but, up until now, have had confidence in him and the board's integrity and good intentions. However I feel pretty confident in saying that: 1. If LJ doesn't resign tomorrow, it gives the lie to the idea that he's someone who cares about the future of our club. 2. If SL doesn't sack LJ tomorrow, those who think he is personal feelings ahead of the club will be entirely vindicated. Let's hope for a departure by mutual consent.

I'm utterly delighted - we had to win today to have a good chance of staying up and I'm thrilled we have done it. But scraping our second league win in three months away to the second from bottom team in the league certainly hasn't changed my view that we need to change manager to move forward. Massively massively pleased and relieved we won though!

It's not even a slightly relevant question though. The board have invested significantly this season, backed LJ heavily in January and the manager has continually failed to shape the players brought in into a wining side. Whether he picks Tomlin or doesn't pick Tomlin is irrelevant. His job is to win games. He clearly does not have the ability to do it. Out of interest here is a question - no logic, no agenda - from me. It is March and we are in the bottom three. 1) Do you accept we are in a relegation battle? 2) If you do, and you do not feel LJ is responsible for that, what is your analysis of where the blame does lie?

We were 3 - 0 up. We then panicked, conceded 3 goals and drew a game we were comfortably ahead in. Not unlike Reading where we were 2 up. We then panicked, conceded 3 goals and lost a game we were comfortably ahead in. Not unlike Cardiff where we were the better team and went ahead twice. We then panicked, conceded 2 late goals (so 3 in total ) and lost a game we were comfortably ahead in. Not unlike Wednesday back near the start of the season when were 2 - 0 up and then panicked, conceded 3 late goals and lost a game we were comfortably ahead on. Do you honestly not see why people are upset about it?
