    Great call Tulip.

    Onomah got the 4th, some websites listed it as Adomah as the names are similar.


    I think bongo was trying to be funny with the "Bruce out" stuff. But, maybe misplaced... 3 wins in a row guys - give credit where it's due. No team has ever played and won amd looked fantastic for the whole 48 game season.

    Onwards amd upwards with a couple of tricky games now

    Well done lads! 3 wins in a row in the league. I said we needed 25 points from 9 games to be in with a chance. Keep it up

    We're only 4 points from 2nd. Although wolves do have a game in hand. Bruse has assembled probably the best squad in the league.

    Again, it is a step in the right direction. They are taking their chances and defending well so that is a good thing. As Cloughy said, the goal was against the run of play, the second was miss hit and it killed them. But, for all their pluck they weren't good enough for our back four.

    Second half was more of a containment job. I was okay with that.

    Whelan looked good in the second half from the little I saw. Onomah looks like a player!

    Encouraging, we need to put away Bolton. Historically this is the game we let points slip and we can't afford this.

    Your negativity holds no bounds freer. If I get criticised and ridiculed for being happy we won our 2nd game I have every right to take the p.

    Care to explain w/t/f were the positives ?

    Did your myopia prevent you from seeing Forrest played us off the park for the whole of the second half ??

    Once again we just scraped home -contrary to your feelings back in La-la land, the relief around Villa Park was palpable as the referee blew his whistle for full time

    Apart from Jimmy Danger’s performance & as mentioned earlier “a win is a win”

    The only real positive
    NO cheffing Gabby.

    I am sure he still stands by that statement. Yesterday has no bearing on that game. However, the facts are that this team came into a hugely important season woefully under prepared. It was okay to lose but to look so bad losing was and is unacceptable. Chelsea, who like us are the big boys in their division came out of the off season looking awful, but pulled it around with a solid second half scoring with 10 and 9 men. Then have looked solid since.

    Actually, our first game was probably the best game we've played but failed to win, then we're disgraced at Cardiff and only slightly better than disgraced at Reading. We are on an upward curve, but we have to keep winning, but we still have to play better. We can't always rely on getting 4 goals on 6 shots.

    We are around 9th still so in terms of grades Bruce is still failing, so talk to us when we are top 6 and we'll listen.

    Whilst everyone's chuffed 3 consecutive wins

    We ain't quite at the level of Arsenal Invincible’s ( just yet anyway)

    So lets postpone the ticker tape parade down New Street

    Quietly reverse your open topped bus back into Digbeth bus depot – for the time being eh ?

    As for your “ridiculed & criticised “
