[miketh2nd]

Great result and it just shows how right Pearson was to avoid loans , brum have 6 loan players . We had 5 academy players play today!

Blackburn have lost 4 in last 6 games, twice conceding 4, shows how open this league is really

In a total false position as they don't draw. 2 more defeats than us.

This league is crazy. At one point today Luton were third and yet finish the day in ninth!

[Kodjias Wrist]

Great result. Only negative is the fans chanting "How shit must you be we're winning at home".

[Engvall’s Splinter]

The Swansea game is a ballache now. Would’ve preferred the week off and focus on the Blackburn game. 

[mozo]

That was enjoyable. Not totally worry-free but a dominant performance (still we're capable of better!)

We had the right attitude, work rate and tried to play the right way most of the time. Despite conceding two we mostly defended really well.

Atkinson responded well. Vyner composed and competitive again. Pring having a great return to favour. And good to see Sykes played in his preferred position and do well.

The table looks so much better tonight. It would be nice if we could get on a roll and put those dogfight fears to bed ASAP. We're perfectly capable of doing that.

Brilliant. 4 goals and beating  Birmingham. Well done lads. Let's keep it going. COYR

Results elsewhere have now given a six point gap between us and first relegation spot. Massive win. COYRs

 

 

 

Seven with the goal difference..

Interestingly,,our opponents next week,Blackburn,were absolutely hammered at Rotherham today.

No injuries v Swansea on Tuesday please!

[The Coach]

Give us Chelsea or Liverpool

Put your hands up if you had £20 on Mark Sykes to score two or more at 170/1 

Come on City. Don’t **** it up now 

Good on you … that’s a brilliant wedge of cash to do something big with

If you don't know the facts you should not be talking so much misguided nonsense. Pearson has always wanted 433 from day one. Players were unable to cope, we let goals in left right and centre, we were far worse. We had to tidy up. We will move to 433 when we have the players for it, or against teams that allow us to do it. We are still too open with 433 with current players, despite monumental improvements in the reliability of in particular Vyner. If you really think Pearson does not want 433 , and there were reasons why it has not been utilised for some time, then you are seriously an ostrich and have ignored all of the facts, the information provided to you, if you ever care to  listen. Which you clearly do not. Yes I have called you an ostrich. You have ignored all of the information and facts available to have a completely misguided opinion. 

Mate you believe that we have never been in the premier league because of our fans so I wouldn’t go around spouting ‘facts’ if I was you!

Realistically any of us would have taken 5 points from Milwall away, Coventry away and Birmingham at home.

That was very very enjoyable- atmosphere great, and great counter attacking football.

Pring outstanding

Shows the potential if we can unlock it consistently

Lots of space today. Scott and Semenyo playing well. Hope Sykes can get into the game a bit more second half. Hoping for a third, otherwise it might get a bit .

Haha. All round either the best performance of the season or the sh1est from them either way a great win

He always makes snide comments and blames the opponents for outplaying/thinking his team.

Agreed....Pring....blinded by the 2 goals.

2 tap ins doesn't make you the best player on the pitch.  He worried me today Sykes.  Was far too far forward leaving Tanner exposed.  Better sides will take advantage of that.

Never mind the feets of a gk. We were told Max was good on his feets therefore him before Bents, he he. Frankie was very good when he played here. Max is doing ok. 

[Garland-sweden]

Good performance today and all points. As I said before the game: Its paytime.  This win was important, COYR

There was one chorus of COYR that was the best I’ve heard since Man City at home. Really good stuff.

Do wonder the talk in the media about lack of penalties and being said ref bound to give us a pen, played on the Birmingham players, as looked scared to tackle us in the box
