    That through ball was absolute pornography by the way.

    Big blow that. Very good gaffer. Looks like he’s going Birmingham.

    As a human being he was an arsehole. Seems a very good gaffer as you say though. Been impressed with almost every aspect of his management. He’s a far removed from Joey Barton as is possible!!

    I thought he meant there was a cross he dropped/knocked to the ground and jumped straight on it among a few players. He was top class yesterday.

    Other than injuries, everything has come up smelling of roses since the takeover was officially announced. It's been a dream start for the new owner. Great to see good things happening both on and off the pitch.

    Bowyer to Birmingham is an odd one. Brum appears to be something of a poisoned chalice these days

    Another club with strange owners who either don't appear interested anymore or have ran out of money.

    Aye he'd be a canny captain. Got the right character for it and he doesn't half lead by example. He's definitely good enough for the championship, as for the prem...maybe. I wouldn't rule it out if he had quality players around him. Certainly someone I want at the club long term.
