FT: BIRMINGHAM CITY 0 - 1 CARDIFF CITY. Match thread

[LA Bluebird]

How many minutes do we think Ashford and J.Colwill will get tonight? I'm going for 15

Ashford will get 5 minutes at the end of a dire 2-0 loss and then there will be a 3 pager on here calling him crap and if he wasn't young and Welsh nobody would rate him

[LA Bluebird]

The pyrotechnics really made me laugh. The glitz and glamor of a half empty Championship stadium on a Wednesday night.

Sounds strangely familiar

[City123]

Birmingham have some talented players, they really shouldn't be in the relegation battle and I doubt they would be had their owners not stupidly sacked Eustace

[WJ99mobile]

Blooming eck that was close

[bluebirds17]

I know they've got more riding on the game but we look so poor

[ToTaL ITK]

blistering start by citeh...they do know that they can go onto brums side of the pitch?

[Taffy Blue in Berkshire]

Goutas is an accident waiting to happen

[LA Bluebird]

Big center forward going wide crossing to nobody in the box. Genius tactics.

[City123]

Could someone tell Meite he's the striker and should stop pulling out wide?

I know it hasn't worked in every other game, but let's see if it does this time

[Bobby Dandruff]

Goutas is an accident waiting to happen

Really? He has probably been our most consistent player this season :-/

[Taffy Blue in Berkshire]

Really? He has probably been our most consistent player this season :-/

well I hope you're right as he looked a bit dodgy at the start

[LA Bluebird]

We just had every single player instead of Meite within 30 yards of our own goal, it got played up to Meite who had pulled wide, had to play it 10 yards back to Grant who was catching up with him and then had nobody to pass to and gave it away.

Can somebody explain exactly what the plan is here other than try not to get scored on and nick a goal from a set piece?

We're hoping to bring on young Romaine Sawyers for some much needed experience around the 75 minute mark

Maybe Tanner as well

[City123]

Jordan James is such a promising player, even when it looks like he's overrun it he still gets there. Coming up to 100 Championship appearances at 19, already over 100 in all competitions for Birmingham

[Sparticus_Mills]

It's dreadful, so slow and ponderous, there's no creativity or movement. It's awful

[BlueArmy 86]

Ramsey blowing

[Der Kaiser]

Ramsey blowing

Can't figure out if he's pulled something again he was feeling his calf... bit of a sorry sight this really.

[ToTaL ITK]

Ramsey blowing

who?

[Dave Blue]

Anyone happy with that must hate football.

[City123]

He seemed to be walking ok, but we should take him off, there's no point risking anything now

[light up the darkness]

In what world would Madley favour us?

He, Madly, is a Huddersfield supporter

[Undercoverinwurzelland]

Colwill (Rubin) for Ramsey

[LA Bluebird]

Is that the last time we will see Ramsey play - at least for City?

[City123]

I don't get how Laird starts ahead of Drameh for Birmingham
