Didn't watch the game, and no I wasn't 'joking'. Squad wise they're a decent side, doesn't really matter how they did or didn't play today in isolation.

in isolation they were shit today and still managed to beat us, that is what counts not whether they are a good side on paper, that was the excuse last during our run of losses.

"we only lost by the odd goal"

Yes and I believe you will find that we lost quite a few last season by the odd goal, games that we should have won.

Not sure why you're being so pedantic.. it was pretty obvious what I was saying. It's a competitive division and we'll lose tight games.

Rovers bottom of the league is a consolation

Agree. Shades of last season.

Deserved all we got. So wasteful it was unbelievable. As soon as Brum changed shape we crumbled. Again

"Again"

What other games this season have we crumbled in?

Watch the 90 minutes when you get a chance, it should never have been 'a tight game'.

Still think we lack a bit of bite in CM. Will be good when Baker is in the team to partner Wright. A tad worried we might struggle against the real physical sides in this league..today being a case of that 

Their CM even after the sending off looked really strong, we lacked that

We should not let us down to donkey business but need a game plan where to go from keeping the ball. Cardiff last season killed us. We looked like total idiots.

If people were really getting excited over beating a woeful Barnsley team and a team in the league below...they need more then a reality check .

Think today just proves that not a massive amount has changed to last season 

Believe me Birmingham were far worse than Barnsley.

Quite clear the poster was referencing last season.

In my opinion Nichlas shouldn't have came on, he hasn't had enough time to settle and playing him when 2-1 down in front of a then hostile crowd didn't help . He really did whip in a few good crosses, maybe give him a run out v Watford but leave him out against Brentford

Again, I think we are too soft and too weak in midfield. It's no co-incidence that big strong sides like Brum always beat us by the odd goal after an even game. That bite in the Elliott/Hartley/Taylor mould is still missing, add that and we've got a tidy side imho.
