James

Connolly but disallowed.

Why was Billy taken off? Sounded like he was playing well.

AWESOME line up there - COYR.

You say that. But if we were to get a win today, then we'd go into the Tuesday game full of confidence on the back of a win and might catch them cold. As we well know they haven't exactly been playing well recently just grinding out the results whereas we've been playing ok and been getting caught out by poor ref performances, bad pitches and freak FA cup results etc.

Exactly. Sharp has to start. It will give the crowd a huge lift and I really haven't been impressed by Lee with what I've seen of him so far (not to say he won't come good but doesn't look ready to step straight in for a crucial game). Also, anyone who has put Reeves in ahead of Cork or Hammond needs there head examining. Too lightweight for Champ football at the moment from what I've seen. He shows some nice touches but never has any real impact on a game (disallowed goal aside).

Hopefully this means he's fit enough to start on Sat

Lets get back to winning ways with a good old fashioned thumping of Burnley at home. I'd like to see this team if all available: Davis Richardson Fonte Hooiveld Fox Puncheon Morgan Cork Lallana Lambert Sharp Arguably our strongest team of the season so far, and with it being such a huge game I'm fairly confident we'll do it. Just hope Millwall is out of the systems of those who played!

Last time I checked conceeding 3 goals at home to a Millwall reserve team with almost your first choice back four counted as a bad night. We ARE playing badly for a team with serious promotion ambitions, sorry for not conforming to the happy clappy - we'll be ok after ANOTHER home game we've failed to win.

So he should be, he needs to pick the boys up and turn it round FAST

Puncheon will start not Chaplow

We could easily slip out of the top 6 if we don't buck up. The league is a lot tighter now and we don't look like getting a win from anywhere at the moment. I'm genuinely very worried now

This is getting worrying - we're playing badly and can't buy a win whilst Brum are going like a freight train. People will say its only the cup but this will damage confidence. For god sake Adkins sort it out and quickly.

Which app/browser is best for this?

Thought Morgan was great in the first half, as was Lallana but he went missing in the second half. Puncheon was also excellent, great to have him back in the team. Martin and Fonte did a great job defending the hoof ball except from that N'Daw header early on. Shame we can't appeal Fox red, as it was absolutely outrageous. Phil Dowd really is an idiot. If Sharp had taken his chance first time we'd be talking about all 3 points! But let's not blame him for one missed chance eh?

Phil Dowd really is a ridiculous ref. A red card for Fox, but a yellow for a cynical foul on Guly when through - beggars belief really. Content with 0-0 though, especially with Cardiff losing. Why didn't Sharp take his chance first time though?!

Will be annoyed if Connolly does start over Sharp, he was pants against Leicester and Cardiff and has a tendency to go missing in tough away games.

What a surprise that a brummie thinks they'll turn us over! Has anyone forgotten just how poor they were at SMS? Probably the worst side to come down all season! Their personell hasnt exactly improved since then. If we play well we will win. I think everyone is getting way too carried away about how good brum are. Ok, they've scored a lot of goals recently but if you watch highlights of their Leeds match, they gave so many opportunities to Leeds which were missed. Lambo and sharp won't be so forgiving today I don't think. As you say though, we shall see!

From watching the second half highlights of the Cardiff match it looks like we absolutely battered them and should have won. Depends on how we start the game I think, if we can keep it tight and score first then we have an excellent chance. I'm more worried about letting in a stupid goal though to be honest.

Come on

Come on corner

COYR lets win this.

What is going on with us at the moment? Ridiculous

Sounds like the refs done us there. Come on Saints we cant afford to lose this one.

Why not loan Barnard to Donny? They'll need a striker and he needs games...cant help but think he'll have limited chances now what with Sharp, Lee, Lambert, Guly and Connolly in front of him at the moment.

Lallana --- Cork --- Hammond --- Puncheon/Chaplow/Guly
