After a shit season and two recent absolute pastings we took against "lesser" teams, it is a cause for fuggin elation. BE TOLD

It's just a reflection of how completely devoid of confidence we are. Blues are really poor, and Stoke aren't much better
Blues have lost 1 game at home in almost 2 years, and have won 4 of their last 6… they’re not poor at all, and Stoke have the best defence in the division.
It is a joke we are as low in the league as we are given just how poor some teams are this year, but after 32 games, we are where we deserve to be.
Will 14 more 0-0s keep us up?

I struggled to be positive about Stoke but there’s some definite shoots to take from tonight

Maybe, just maybe, will mean a generally low total was needed, but it'll depend on Blackburn, Portsmouth and Leicester

Loved how the interviewer told him it wouldn't be changed, as it wouldn't and he carried on, prat

More than willing to accept we've been generationally bad but we've also not played one team this season that I've thought were good, that's how poor we've been. Middlesbrough a few weeks back were the closest to being half decent.

Other than getting distance on a long throw Gilchrist seems not to be able to do most of the basics. I’d leave him out of the picture completely with the others coming back.
RE: Birmingham City - West Brom Albion: Match Thread - Birdman1811 - 02-10-2026
Gilchrist dealt with Gray quite well, he is very, very defensive though, certainly not going to add anything offensively.
Hilarious how he was used as an example that Furlong wasn't any good by a few on here.

Notice he’s talking about VAR giving the penalty never mentioned Phillips would also get a penalty
For the Blues goalie taking him straight out
