Blues are at home to Burnley this Saturday.

Got my ticket so I will be there. Mind you if I never already had a ticket I wouldn't bother tbh..

Anyow Mulllins is back That numpty Clark is bound to pick the useless Fekker.

If Zigic & King start then am going for a win.

But I reckon this game has draw written all over it.

What say you ?

Blues starting XI V Burnley: Butland; Packwood, Caldwell (C), Davies, Hancox; Hall, Reilly, Mullins, Morrison, Lovenkrands, Zigic.

Blues bench: Doyle, Ibanez, Delfouneso, Elliott, Gomis, Burke, Redmond.

[hootie63]

No King not even on the bench Clark just never seems to lack surprises

Also Diop out for 3-4 weeks hamstring

[hootie63]

Late Change Lovenkrands out

Redmond into Starting line up

[hootie63]

Average 1st half from both teams with Barnsley just edging it on chances but Blues leading 1-0 which is a rare thing so lets hope they can perform in 2nd half like we know they can the kids have done well so far just need to keep it up

[hootie63]

1-1 Barnsley commentary nearly missed it so cant even say much about it

[hootie63]

2mins later and its 2-1 Barnsley what a shambles this is lack of concentration

[bluenosekev]

Not long been back.

Bryan and myself were saying at half time how well we were playing. Thoroughly deserved the ht lead, Burnley had a few chances but overall we were good value. Second half Burnley scored two good goals one of which was a perfect free kick from distance that went in via the underside of the cross bar, they also had a good goal ruled out as the ref had already blown for a free kick to them. You just cant write Blues off at the moment tho, Zigic scored with a late equaliser making it 2.2. and a fair result tbh.

Oh and the Turkey Baps with stuffing and a choice of several sauces were delicious..Nice one Blues !

Not sure what to make of this. Started awfully, could've been 3-0 down by 20 mins if not for some poor finishing and great keeping by Butland. Grew into the game and dominated the rest of the half, Ziggy was great and hall was all over his man (who would've been sent off had hall not stayed on his feet). Deserved the goal and probably just shaded the half

Second half was pants, never got Hall in the game when we shouldve been giving it to him ALL the time given the LB was on a last chance saloon. Couple of chances though their goals were always coming. 2 nice goals to be fair though the celebrations were fucking stupid, provoked the crowd and inevitably had a few idiots charging past the stewards.

Was surprised by LC's subs, taking off our best 2 players in Hall and Morrison though it worked in the end; thought Redmond had scored with his chip but Zig got a deserved goal (though I didn't see it and had no idea what was happening till the cheer )

Good performance, deserved a point and an end-to-end game. Shite defending, thought Packwood was slid though didn't offer much going forward and was a bit dissapointed in Mitch. Reilly did a Mullins and was anonymous though Morrison, Hall, Redmond and Zigic were excellent, though Nath is still too much of a wimp backing out of challenges and headers/

Improved performance though were still shite at defending. Diop, King and Lovenkrands being out are massive blows as well
