After a turbulent, few days at Blues off the field, it was now time to turn our attention to things that are happening on it. It was the start of the ‘Bowyer Era’ and it couldn’t be a much more difficult task if they tried. Reading find themselves 5th in the table and on the […]

March 6, 2021 By WAB Admin | 1 Comment on Barnsley 1 – 0 Blues – 06/03/2021
I never thought I’d actually fear Blues going to Barnsley, but this is the a new world we live in and everything that was once normal is now the complete opposite, minus Blues being in a relegation dogfight in the championship. It was a tough task that Blues had to face, Barnsley won the previous […]

The 27th of February is a date that all Blues will hold dear to their heart for the rest of their lives. 10 years on from THAT day and it couldn’t be more different, instead of lifting a major honour, Blues were looking to try and kick-start a run to pull themselves clear from dropping […]

After a huge win on the weekend away at Hillsborough, Blues welcomed league leaders Norwich City to St. Andrews, where they were looking for their 2nd win at the stadium in a week – which would match the amount of wins Blues have in their own stadium this season. No pressure Blues. For me this […]

This one was labelled as a “must win” and it didn’t need much reading as to why that was the case. Blues found themselves level on points with their opponents today, despite Wednesday having a points deduction at the start of the season (albeit reduced after an appeal). After losing 3 on the spin the […]

After back to back draws against Coventry and Wycombe (2 games you ideally want to be picking up 2 wins in) Blues had the task of travelling to a Bournemouth side who have lost 4 on the bounce and recently parted ways with Jason Tindall. The new manager effect couldn’t come at a worse time […]

Has someone made the landlord vs tenants joke yet? You know that funny joke they said when we first played Coventry in the cup last season. Well, it’s time for them all to return as Blues found themselves as the home team this time around (sigh). Blues were looking for their first home win since […]

After a spirited and complete team performance on the weekend, Blues had a very short turn around to get themselves ready for their next test. This time it was Preston at Home – a team I always find to be a bogey one and never have any fond memories of. However, Blues had the opportunity […]

Back to league action and this time Blues had the chance to ruin everyone’s weekend a bit earlier than usual, thanks to Sky deciding (for some reason) to broadcast this absolute blockbuster of a match. It was a short turn around from the last time we played Boro and the horror show from that afternoon […]

Garry Monk’s men were deservedly beaten 3-1 at Carrow Road by Norwich on Friday night. 3 goals in the first 25 minutes for Daniel Farke’s team deservedly wrapped up all 3 points for the high flying Canaries. The result leaves Blues still 4 points off the playoffs with 18 games remaining. Garry Monk named an […]

Birmingham City picked up just their second point on the road this season, and it turned out to be a very good point against a Sheffield United side who have performed very well at Bramall Lane this season. A first half Jeremie Boga strike put Blues ahead before Leon Clarke equalised for Sheffield United. Here […]

Things went from bad to worse for Steve Cotterill and for Birmingham City yesterday, and the club fell to yet another away defeat without scoring a goal. The atmosphere in the away end turned toxic with chants of “You’re not fit to wear the shirt” coming throughout the second half. Here are my player ratings […]

Birmingham City’s inconsistent run of form continued, with yet another poor performance following a promising performance in their previous game. This, alongside the lack of goals in the team, is a severe concern that Steve Cotterill really needs to address if he is going to have any success as Birmingham City manager. Here are my […]

A fiercely contested Second City derby finished goalless at St Andrew’s in front of the Sky cameras. Both teams had fantastic chances to win the game but none were converted leaving both sides with a share of the spoils. Here are my player ratings from the game. Starting XI Kuszczak – 7 Dealt with […]

Birmingham City succumbed to yet another defeat on the road yesterday at The Den. Steve Cotterill is going to have to take a real long look at our current away for any try to figure out a way of drastically improving it, as we have now lost 6 of our 7 league away games; picking […]

Steve Cotterill took charge of his first game as Birmingham City on Friday night against Cardiff City, and he got off to the best start possible. Blues put in a fantastic performance and a superbly taken Che Adams goal gave them the three points. Here are my player ratings from the game. Starting XI Kuszczak […]

Saturday afternoon’s trip to Hull City brought out one of the worst Birmingham City performances for years. There are a lot of players that need to take a long hard look at their selves in the mirror, because recent performances have quite simply not been good enough. Here are my player ratings from the game. […]

Lee Carsley’s first game in temporary charge of Birmingham City at St Andrew’s resulted in a crucial 1-0 win against Sheffield Wednesday. It was a welcome lift for many Blues fans after a torrid run of form which left us in 23rd position. Here are my player ratings from Wednesday’s game. Starting XI Man of […]

Blues succumbed to a sixth consecutive defeat in all competitions at home to Preston North End, a defeat which signaled the end of Harry Redknapp’s short reign in charge. It was a torrid second half from Blues who were overran by Preston in every department. Here are my player ratings from the game. St Andrews […]

Blues succumbed to a very disappointing 2-0 home defeat to Reading on Saturday thanks to goals from Jon Dadi Bodvarsson and George Evans. Here are my ratings from the game. Starting XI Stockdale – 6 Had no chance with either goal, smart save from Tyler Blackett early on. Jenkinson – 6 Taken off injured after […]

Blues were held to a draw in their second home game of the season against Bolton on Wednesday night, below is my take on the performances. Starting XI Stockdale – 6 Wasn’t troubled too much by a defensive Bolton side, carried out what he was troubled with well. Tried to get some counter attacked going […]
