MATCHWATCH : Birmingham City (h) sponsored by 5 games without a win

[John Smith]

I'm reading that Birmingham have sold out their away end...

[Snowflake Royal]

My ST seats are unfortunately next to some of the biggest whingers I’ve ever heard in a football stadium. Worst thing is they’re about 15. They really do my nut in

I don't think I've been to a game in the last 10 years where I haven't been near some negative moaning arsehat.

Hmm weird team. Not convinced by it tbh, but we’ll see

[Sutekh]

According to Ady, Reading have the worst form of any Championship team for the 5 games before yesterday. 2 points from 15.

Not a lot of steel in the midfield. Stam might be looking to be more creative.

Big Ron says not too much activity transfer wise owing to FFP but there is money available for any small deals

Insists will not be looking to sell anyone

Backing manager all the way as very much a case of building something for the future and therefore Jaap is NOT under threat

Owners turning up at next home game

Yes, just now.

[Snowflake Royal]

That is one powderpuff side.

Swift, Clement, Aluko, Barrow, Gunter? Half our team couldn't fight their way out of a wet paper bag.

No Edwards on bench so presumably yet ANOTHER "training ground injury" seeing as he comleted the last game without apparently any problems. 2 LFBs on the bench whilst a RFB plays LFB again. And then this gem from the OS : handing Pelle Clement his first league start since August. The young Dutch forward replaces Dave Edwards in midfield, .

[Ascotexgunner]

Interesting to see what the attendance is. Seemed very quiet around the ground coming up the hill. The Mooroak p and r didn't seem that busy....maybe people are late.

[Royal Rother]

With that team, comfortable loss.

[double d]

Sudden positive feeling about this game! Come on urz! The moaners have all stayed at home where I am sitting, even one guy was moaning behind me and got told where to go

[double d]

Oh look, Oilroyal's spouting baseless nonsense again

Stolen your spot of nosencness! You are an online diva

I think Oilroyal has a point here, it may be a possibility and to be honest who knows what the players are thinking? Can anyone confirm nd other than assume that the players confidence is low etc.? Oilroyal's post made sense and his reply to genome was good. This is not ian royal or double d that we're dealing with here so i think the attempted belittling was out of order on this occasion.

To be honest, the team are playing so badly there are hundreds of things that the players may be thinking and feeling and i don't suppose a late play-off spot surge is one of them.

Don't name drop me. I am not ian royal and oil royal. They seem to think they are involved in football and have a deep knowledge about all football related matters.

[Melton Royal]

I shall remain optimistic until we're 3-0 down with 4 minutes to play

Either a true fan - or on day release from some well-meaning institution!! Good on you whatever! Better man than me.

Just been there soooo many times before over the last 50 odd years - I went to school with Malcolm Swain (and he wasn't that good in the School team)

[CountryRoyal]

The softest team I've ever seen, how have we conceded a goal like that.
