Think the mackem is right, you cant accuse others of being obsessed and then do the same. That said, there is some quality banter in here

We've got 22 points at the moment. Assuming 38 sees us home and dry, thats 16 points from 19 games. Thats 4 wins, 4 draws and 11 losses. Surely we arent that shit?

The moment the January transfer window slams shut is when I will attempt to try and put us in one of those groups. League is so tight anything could happen between now and the end of the season. Will be interesting.

They are also offering a £20 freebet. I have placed it on this. Howay Andy Carroll!

Betclic are offering odds of 4-1 that the first goal scored will be a header. Now is it me or is that extremely good?

a draw away from home at a ground we are shite at wouldnt be the worst result, considering wigan are on a bit of form. I'd certainly like to see us go out for and hopefully get the win.

genuinely laughed out loud at that!

thats 2 postponed fixtures on the trot for Birmingham, and 2 rearranged games for more hectic times later in the season. I imagine they are also peed off immensely. Look on the bright side, HBA might be avbailable for the rearranged fixture!

Where the f*** you travelling from ?! Few days on the hoy in London. The great tourist attractions in this lovely city are Brixton, Peckham, New Cross and Harelsden. Id advise you to take a look at what these fantastic places have to offer. lewisham is also extremely beautiful this time of year.

According to nufc.com it was his 5th today. Many happy returns to him.

At the moment, we are in 8th and Everton and Stoke have just 1 point less than us and are in 13th and 14th respectively.

I think people are being overly optimistic here. At home, they have lost 1 in 23 games. They arent world beaters but neither are we, and we are playing away. A hungry performance would do me, and if we can get a draw or even a win then I'll be happy.

god knows about the score. we are so predictably unpredictable. will be a scrappy hard fought game with the ball being at head height for the main part.

Yeah I live halfway between Aston villa and Birmingham city's grounds. I will not be wearing colours for this game and I would advise others to do the same.

Its welll known that Charlton fans Hate Pardew, Its only because he is not Alan Curbishley! Probably because he isn't Hughton either, that is one reason why he will fail here.

Wasn't he said to be out for about 4 weeks only 2 weeks ago? read an article saying he would be fit.

I think the main point he was getting at was that our success was built upon the fact we were sound defensively. We won a lot of away games 1-0. Most of the goals were scored at home.

No news is probably good news with regards to the weather postponing it. Still a bit of snow and ice down here but I'd hope there wouldnt be enough to call it off.

The race for the 2026 world cup is close, bookies currently have Narnia as faviourites, with middle earth, atlantis and seasame street hot on there heels.

Nah I'm a toon fan, just love going to see the spicy games really! I went to see Fenerbahce v Besiktas, and there was barely any violence there. Whereas here, it all kicks off! Was a great atmosphere, but yes if I hadn't have been cheering for Birmingham in the home end I reckon I'd have been hung drawn and quartered.

I saw loads of police with dogs and riot gear before the match. After the match, they were all inside the stadium and where I was, there wasn't a single one outside. Anyway, don't expect that one to be played on a weekday again!

I've also just got back from this game, sat in the same stand as the Villa fans but in the home section in the corner. Frankly, west midlands police were appauling. At half time, both sets of fans were trying to smash the metal barrier down and some villa fans managed to get into the Birmingham section and it all kicked off. No police or stewards were in the concourse whatsoever, and yet the away fans manage to just bash down the door. Flares and chairs being thrown by both sets of fans at FT. Random bloke stopped and shouted at me "fucking bluenose scum" on the way, looking for a fight. Not a single policeman outside after the game where I was. All it would've taken was for 1 villa fan without a ticket to say the wrong thing and it would've been a massacre. All in all, shocking display from the police and the hooligan element from both sets of supporters. I live halfway between the 2 grounds, and all the pubs by the Aston university campus dont even open on derby day because they got smashed up last time. Farce.

Ok so it sounds like: Krul Simps Taylor Sol Enrique Rout Barton Tiote Jonas Shola Carroll If Shola not fit then Ranger That would be a pleasing lineup

All signs point to a loss. 2-1 win
