Get real. For all those now calling the Brum result a fluke / one-off blip.

    will you please have a good nights sleep then come back on tomorrow and apply the same logic to the Peterboro score ? FFS on a stick.

    Cheers

    I think it was a fluke, because no way are we going to play like that every game, its not possible, we will get more games when we play poorly than when we play like we did against Brum, but that is why we are where we are, but to just slag off the fans that maon tonight without slating the ones the went over board a wek or so ago is just petty.

    By definition 5-0 is a one off. Also by definition, losing badly cannot be a one-off when we have lost previous games badly.

    Who is calling it a fluke?! We were as awful tonight as we were brilliant then.

    Poor team selection has cost us together with individual errors

    Nowt wrong with a moan and yes, the reaction to Brum was over the top at the time. Ton be honest my post is aimed at some twitter users, not merely users on here. But I didn't know how to have a pop in 140 letters or less.

    I was over the top but you get my drift ....

    Given that I've only seen a Barnsley side play once like that in over 40 years, I'm afraid that would fulfill my definition of a fluke.

    I desperately wanted to believe that Keef and Flicker had unlocked some magic key, but I'm afraid it now looks like Birmingham were incredibly naive, and other Championship managers are not going to allow their teams to stand back and be played around like Brum did.

    Overall, we've probably still done better from the first nine games than many anticipated, so let's just see where we go from here?
