It’s clear to see we are a little short on confidence but that’s to be expected after last season. It’s a long season and plenty of time to find our groove. A few wins and we will be well on our way.
Great to get football back!! |  | | |  |

This.
We will be fine.
Probably most intimidating ground we will play at all season and pick up a point.
Few more in few more out. Most importantly Mckenna remains our boss. Will finish top 2. |  | | |

I agree and it's very clear that McKenna knows where he needs to strengthen. It'll come. |  |

If Brum are supposedly 3rd favourites, with last years 111 point momentum, in their hostile home atmosphere and we are yet to rebuild the team and find form again, they really should have beaten us by 3 clear goals, but they didnt. We're going to be ok, it'll just take a month. It was also great to see KMcK bring on 3 finishers at 67 minutes, just like old times. It worked. [Post edited 8 Aug 23:37]

Few mentioned it a while ago but a Lewis Travis type 3rd choice centre mid would be astute championsip experience for similar tough away games | | | |

Yes, I was one who mentioned Travis last month, might be useful to have him or someone similar on the bench. Tonight we had Matusiwa and Taylor on yellows for a while. Always good to swap at least one for a third option to stand a better chance of keeping 11 on the pitch. If Matusiwa & Cajuste become the main 2 they still need a decent backup. | | | |

They should have beat a parachute team and favorites to win the league by 3 clear goals? Jesus, come on you can’t have it each and every way. One moment we’ve got too many new players, the next we haven’t rebuilt our 130M team.
On the night they were actually slight favorites, due to some of the things you mentioned but they had multiple players making their league debuts.
It’s a fine/good result but was an average/bad performance, don’t go to such lengths to exaggerate to make yourself feel better.
We will be fine though once we get some more through the door and settle into the season. [Post edited 9 Aug 2:39]

We will be fine if keep our eyes open and bring in the right players in the next few weeks. Just saying " we will be fine " won't work.
There's a feeling we will romp this league and it's not bed-wetting to suggest it won't be. Happy with the result( lucky and undeserved), but we were outplayed.
Biggest positive from this might be a coming down to earth and realisation that this is going to be a fight if we want to be up there. | | | |

Not playing like that, we didn’t create a single chance and were shocking, particularly first half. I didn’t think Birmingham were all that they had minimal cutting edge and quality but were far better than us, worrying really but we know we are short squad wise and will add to it. |  |

I agree we will be fine. When I looked through Birmingham’s signings yesterday, I was impressed with the level of player they had brought in. They’ve even strengthened significantly since walking League One, so last night with the heavily hostile atmosphere was always going to be tough.
Also, despite poor defending for their goal, there was still a large element of luck in the fact that the ball bounced off the post at the perfect angle to avoid O’Shea & gift Stansfield with a tap in. I’m not sure we’d have conceded at all if it weren’t for this. We defended mostly pretty well across the 90 mins |  | | |

It also shows where we are with lack of options when Ali had to come on as a winger. We need to get some business done in lots of areas by the close of transfer window . | | | |
