The Championship Thread 2023/2024

[Leicester_Loyal]

If Bham lose tonight, then fail to beat Cardiff, I wonder if they'll boot Rooney out before we play them.

 

Or maybe we'll beat them and they'll sack him after that...

But they aren't too shite, they were a kick away from the Prem this year and have just had a rough start so far. 

That was last season, 15th in the championship isn’t great pal, I’m sure if Coventry were top that would bring in an extra 4k fans 

[TrentFox]

Either way, they look good going forwards. 

[Aus Fox]

I can’t believe this is the same Birmingham team I watched earlier in the season. They look woeful now, I thought they looked pretty decent at the start of the season.

They are probably managed by the worst manager in the league though, no idea how Rooney gets a managers job.

Coventry deserve to be ahead .

 

Forgot about O’Hare .

 

Has been a good player for them before his injury

Very very wasteful.

Simms up top is still an absolute donkey. 

 

O'Hare looks bright, unsure how he'd do in a side where he has to stick to his position rather than roam around. Also thought he looked a prat with about 5 different celebrations for a toe poke

I know what a prat with the celebrations

[cruzFOX]

Rooney is in real trouble. Can’t see that board sticking with him past Xmas if the brummies keep losing like this.

Sam Alisson doing the cov birmingham game, and fair play, hes having another decent one

spotted Dembele dive when most refs would have given it as a foul

Really rate him as a official, takes no shit and really managing the game well.

[UniFox21]

Good keeping from Ruddy, lucky to hit his face, but he's spread and made himself to big.

Poor from Wright, lucky with his touch and then should place rather than smash it.

a bit worried about cannon seeing as everton asked for more cash for simms 🫣

[TrentFox]

Like the look of Van Ewijk. 

[FrankieADZ]

2-0 Coventry

[SystonFox]

Good feet by OHara

[Tuna]

They'll absolutely double down on this Rooney fiasco won't they

[Wymsey]

Great goal, that.

Not an easy one to execute past all of the bodies in the way.

Simms - 19 games 2 goals this year 

17 games 7 goals last year for Sunderland 

 

Cannon - 22/23 - 20 games 8 goals for Preston. 

 

Cannon is also 2 years younger and looks much more a natural finisher.

He has had a good few games.

 

Wouldn't be surprised if he gets a Premier League opportunity.

[UniFox21]

O'Hare is looking really bright. 

If he can continue this form and looking this bright, wouldn't mind us popping in for him. 

 

But at 25 you wonder if this is about as good as he'll get

 

[foxfanazer]

Birmingham getting everything they deserve

[Super_horns]

Gary Rowett might be looking to take the Birmingham job soon.

 

 

[KingsX]

Brum are strictly League One shite under Rooney.  Were they not in the playoff spots when Eustace was sacked?

[AjcW]

That Monday night game against Birmingham is about to become utterly pointless for Sky
