Full time. 1-1. Give Birmingham credit: clear for all to see they're on good form and their defence saw them through. But it wasn't our day. Clear decision given wrongly against Saha, that would have been 2-0 and at the time, there was no way back for Birmingham. Then nearer the end, pretty blatant handball from Carr, not given. And when we did get chances, we fluffed them. 23 shots to 3, ffs. It's not been our day, and it just hasn't been our season.

This ref is an arse.

Where's Distin at the moment? He not fit yet? Injured at some random point recently. We're all over them at the moment, a second goal (how the fuck was Saha ruled offside?) is important. Pretty obvious what's just happened.

Should have been 2, Saha finishes it: nowhere near offside. Fuck's sake.

Bily, 1-0.

Awful game, even worse officiating. (Edit: damn you indi). Can count yourselves incredibly lucky to be ahead here, but by the sounds of it, there have been a fair few scrappy victories like this thus far this season?

Everyone's out of control.

There's no need for that, it's only half 12.

Well that's a turn up for the books.

Nicky Butt x7

A swirling wind.

Feels strange me of all people asking this, but considering it should be just over 40 minutes to kick off, any err, team news?

Allardyce understanding full well but using it as an excuse anyway, more like. I prefer to think he doesn't have a clue.

Allardyce not understanding the rules of football - the added time announced is a minimum you idiot.

Totally depends on what objectives the club has. There is no, and should be no official cut-off point where a manager is suddenly judged. You just hope the powers-that-be make sensible decisions at the right times, i.e. not sacking someone who hasn't done an awful lot wrong, when the club is in a fairly healthy league position still with a good chance of a top 4 place.

Hope Chelsea drop points tomorrow, would have Arsenal right back in the race.

poor babies Ambition is relative.

Another idiot who wrote in said there's no chance City can finish in the top 4.

One fan just amused me there: "So, who would you like to replace Hughes?" "Erm, that err, that Hid.. Hid guy.. Gus..." "Guus Hiddink?" "Yeah, him"

Mancini deal done over 2 weeks ago, apparently.

Preaching that to the wrong audience Neil It's the fact they won the game, not really talking about Sunderland. Bah humbug.

They might have to sack their manager if they do though. They've drawn an awful lot of games away from home.

Forest 3-0. Good on them, would like to see them come up.

"Conceding 3 at home to Sunderland is unacceptable", says some mong who emailed Sky Sports.
