The Birmingham City Blues At Home

[Worthy4England]

A stretch by the standards of even the most fervent Davies fan.

Unlike anyone who might suggest, when we've scored 4 away from home and got beaten, that the problem lay with one player up front?


This is nothing to do with flowery words like fervent. Most folk I suspect recognise the limitations Davo has and would be happy to replace him with better. In fact I'd go as far as would be delighted.

Yes Lee had lots to do, but it was an excellent lay off for him from Davo.

And yes, some bloke stopping it with his hand isn't much to do with Davo, other than he was there, won his header and it was going across their 6 yard box. I give him credit for that in the same way as I gave N'gog the credit for winning the pen against Cardiff.

Let's be honest if it had been N'gog, because his sick note had run out, we'd all be getting told he can't win headers because it needs to be into feet.

1. Flowery words include petal, stamen, sepal but certainly not fervent.

2. By whom would we be getting told this? I'll bet you are thinking of BL3 or Dan, Dan the lavatory man or whatever his name is.

On 2. Go and look at some of the match threads.

On 1, I'd probably refer to OED or some such.

You can flannel all you want about NGog and how good the non scoring KD was in a 5-4 loss to the bottom of the league side but I still challenge the assertion Davies created 2 goals on Saturday.

Well you would challenge it, because you can only see one way - which is your prerogative.

Only if Wales is considered ex-pat .... & if it is I want my tax break.

They probably banned it because it didn't have Welsh commentary or summat. Start a petition to get that border shifted a mile or two.

Some BBC stuff won't play but it says "only available in the UK" - Sky just lets you sit there wondering if the internet is slow or your computer died.

I use a VPN for the 'only in the UK' stuff Monty. Some of them have a free version you can use; usually at a much slower speed, but probably ok for the odd clip. ProXPN works well for me, though I use the paid version.
