That was a pretty dreadful performance 22:04 - Aug 8 with 936 viewsDubtractor

Horrible game to start the season, we couldn't cope with their intensity, and too many had poor games.

But that's a decent result and we know we'll be much better as we settle into the season.

Badly need Cajuste and another cm into the squad though.

Yes thought in the first half we dealt with all that quite well, they didn’t really create anything but first 15 second half desperate but luckily then they pretty much gave up. Was at least poetic that we equalised during all that time they wasted. All 11 had cramp at some point.

Just too many 5 out of 10s tonight.

Having said that, when our changes came on it made a huge difference. Seemed to take for us to go 1 nil down to get going.

Birmingham looked to be playing rugby at times!

That ref was poor.

They were intense but shïte at the same time. We obviously were no better but glad they didn't get the win

They did nothing after they scored either which I think ids a crucial point.

I think it had its positives, but also highlighted how the central midfield needs Cajuste to get fit, and for Azor to get to know team mates.

Not seen anything from Ogbene yet to be honest, but hes pretty new effectively, and Taylor still needs to go back to his backup role which he does well, coming on later in games.

Yep, horrible. There’s no sugar coating that - we were sh*t. You can have an off day when things don’t click, but there’s no excuse for coming second best in terms of energy, urgency, fight and desire.

No point saying anything else about it. I can’t think of any positives individually or as a collective.

Ref was dire too.

Only when Chappers came on did we bring any fight to them. Also Young far superior to Johnson.

Good thing is tho. It's a point against a possible side going for promotion. When we are nowhere ready yet for this season.

Get through august get some points. Let's get the hutch stuff out the way etc and let's get going.

a niche perspective

Didn’t think Brum were all that good, especially given the possession we gave them for large parts of the game.
Even the goal they scored was self-inflicted by us.


More concerned about our inability to keep the ball. Desperately need some more signings.

Agree with most of the above comments especially the time wasting cramp suffered by every Birmingham player. Several poor performances but we can and will play a lot better. Never going to be an easy fixture and a point was not a bad result.

What an awful game and a really poor performance from Town . A very lucky point .

So many poor performances , Ogbene & Johnson very poor and I don't get what Taylor brings to our game .

Young looks like he could be a good addition .

No, they really weren't anything special, and didn't create much at all, but incredible intensity.

Hopefully, that will shake Ashton into life. Stop the focus on selling and sign some players.

If hutch and Broadhead go. Permanent replacements needed. No loans.

Me neither. Shaky at the back in possession, created nothing despite us being poor. And on another day they end up with 9 men. They’ll need to get a lot better to live up to this supposed promotion challengers tag.

What they did well was fight (metaphorically and literally!) and run and run.
