Reply With QuoteSounds Lee Bowyer is going to play some of his fringe players.
He recognises we have a long throw as a weapon. Only Vaulks is banned so not such a weapon tomorrow. Bowyer has done well since he's been there.

Sounds Lee Bowyer is going to play some of his fringe players.
He recognises we have a long throw as a weapon. Only Vaulks is banned so not such a weapon tomorrow. Bowyer has done well since he's been there.
From Mick's pre-Birmingham press conference:
McCarthy is asked about giving more first team debuts after Rubin Colwill's recent outing
Possibly, yeah.
Rubin was excellent and he will be involved tomorrow and we have got a few others - Isaak Davies is in the squad, young Kieron (Evans) is in the squad, Sam (Bowen).
We have a few travelling with us, we have a few injuries, but it was my intention anyway to have some youngsters in the squad anyway.
They’ll be involved now, over the next couple of games. Hopefully they’ll have some game time.
Injury news
Sean came off with his elbow. That’s proving to be a problem for him. Max Watters has a tight hamstring.
Jordi has got an ankle problem. Will Vaulks is obviously suspended. That’s enough for now!
I’m just looking at the list; Junior Hoilett, Tommo, Isaac Vassell, Joel Bagan, Joe Bennett, Tom Sang.

It's a nothing game for both clubs so expect lots of young faces, plenty of subs, and either lots of goals, or none at all....
Yes, it will be interesting to see how the youngsters do.
Probably end 0-0
And may be a win? Or a draw? or a defeat?Originally Posted by tforturton

Or maybe abandoned? or not bother starting?
Ralls as LWB?
Nothing to play for. Hopefully an entertaining 3:3 draw. At least I wont get trodden on by one of our travelling Heddlu, like last time (an accident I hasten to add!)
Ralls at right-side of back 3 on BBC site??!!
A game with absolutely nothing riding on it.
Lee Bowyer, obviously looking towards next season, makes seven changes.
Mick McCarthy, obviously looking towards next season, brings back Leandro Bacuna and Harry Wilson.
The BBC site has got Wilson as a DM alongside Pack with Bacuna as LWB and Ralls behind Moore!!!!

Does anyone know the formation yet? It could also be 4-3-3.
Turns out Wilson's a decent player
Great finish. We actually look like a team who can pass the ball.
holy smoke awsome shot and goal from wilson... brum mistake and keeper way out
0-1 city
It looks like 5 at the back with Pack in defence?
Any streams mines stopped work
Another good passing move. Being spoilt today.
Packs playing right centre back, Ng and Brown wing backs, so, for the first time, we have a passer at the back - it’s definitely something worth trying in a game like this.
watching us pass it out from the back got me shaking like a dog in a chinese chip shop...
wish we were in orange too, not a fan of this kit must admit
