1-1 was about fair. Blues probably had enough chances to win it really. Jedinak was great today, hopefully we see more of those types of performances from him now.

I think Westwood gets criticism just because he's Westwood, I thought he was okay today.
Agree, and from me that's saying something!

I can only imagine that neither of you watched the game. He was invisible all match.

Big attendance, not losing to Villa, there'll be some babys made in Bordsley tonight.
They allowed to breed? Isn't there some municipal regulation program to prohibit that?

Yep he was better than Gardner in general play. Though he had a bad first twenty minutes

I still want better but there were worse players for us today. Hutton. Gardner. McCormack.

The police on the loud hailer:

"We're having a few issues outside".

A very politically correct statement, I've got a few other words for them!

Maybe I only saw the bits where he was visible.

4 games, 8 points, no losses. It's a big improvement. Give Bruce credit and accept that it is going to take time.

A draw was probably a fair result.  We'd have lost that three weeks ago, you can definitely see an improvement under Bruce.

I really don't see what McCormack brings to the team in the position he played.  Would have much preferred  Tshibola to give the midfield more drive and purpose. Thought Jed gave us his best game yet. More of that please.

I see the mail have given baker and Jedinak a 6 out of 10 and Gardner a 7

You've got to wonder really haven't you?

I thought we'd already concluded after he'd played close to a couple of games for us that Jedinak was shit?

Westwood was the only one in our midfield who pressed up the pitch and forced them to go long, which played into Jedinak's hands. In that sense, he contributed in making sure we didn't lose the middle of the pitch.

That being said, Bruce should have replaced him with Tshibola once he got that card.

I would have brought Gestede on instead of McCormack when Adomah went off as it was clear we needed a big more physicality up front.
