No way will they go down. Wigan or Blackburn have got to make up six points.

It's 4 points from Blackburn who also have a +4 better goal difference.

[KRS]

Nope it's still 4 points even with the worse goal difference.

[dave.woodhall]

Bloody BBC website,  it's still a big gap so late in the season.

[PeterWithesShin]

They were 4 points points clear with 4 to play in 2011. 2 of the teams below them were Wigan and Blackburn.

[SoccerHQ]

Blackburn's last 4 games are:

Bristol City (H)
Wolves (A)
Us (H)
Brentford (A).

Can easily see them getting another 7 points from that. Our game will probably be the usual 1-1 away grind (we only just beat them at VP remember with a late goal) and can see them beating Bristol City and Wolves.

Would mean SHA would have to pick up another 4 points to finish above Blackburn at least with their GD.

Blues will drop - I'm confident!

[Jon Crofts]

I never take any notice of them but I was alerted to their precarious position by my son about an hour ago.

Them dropping to League 1 would be enormously funny.

Sounds like the Blues players were fighting with each other after the game today. If they loose to Burton on Monday they'll be on the cliff edge.

Only that shower of shite could sack the manager who gets them to a comfortable position, replace him with a known failure like Zola & end up relegated.

We could put a couple of nails in their coffin too, which would be brilliant.

Sadly, I think they'll scrape enough points to be ok.

The natural balance of things is that we are the team of the Midlands. I don't give a fuck about Blues, Coventry, Albion or any of those flagellant twats providing we are looking down on them.

Birmingham City's dire 1-1 draw at Rotherham was marred by unsavoury scenes at the end following a confrontation between Blues players.

Arguments broke out as the Birmingham players warmed down in the centre circle in which Emilio Nsue had to be physically restrained.

Lukas Jutkiewicz and Paul Robinson tried to act as peacemakers before first team coach Gabriele Cioffi frog-marched the angry Nsue off the field as he continued to shout.

The argument continued once the team was back inside the dressing room with raised voices clearly heard from outside.

And there was frustration in the stands too with many of the 2,600 Birmingham City supporters calling for Gianfranco Zola to be removed as manager.

There were also disagreements between Blues fans, who stuck behind their team despite a really disappointing performance.

But chants of 'We want Zola out' clearly divided some travelling Bluenoses causing police to intervene.

Lovely stuff!

Kodjia v 68 year old Paul Robinson is going to be hilarious stuff.

Until Donkey Robinson cripples him permanently in the first 10 minutes....

[Dave P]

Never, ever want Villa to lose, but Blackburn away will be interesting if blues lose thier next 2 games.

[amfy]

I won't ever want us to lose, but if we did, & it sent them down, I think it might be a while before I stopped laughing.
