Sidwell out until Christmas, what are we doing in training?

I said the same earlier today, hopefully we score more than them! Friedel L.Young Dunne Collins Warnock Albrighton Bannan Ireland Downing A.Young Delfouneso Subs: Guzan, Cuellar, Beye, Sidwell, Clark, Hogg, Lichaj

Better and more chances, should have been 3/4-0, the number of times I had my head in my hands was unreal, so gutting to have 3 points snatched away like that...Very, very postive attacking football apart from the finishing, defo something that needs to be worked on.

Yes

Brilliant performance backed by brilliant away support in a brilliant stadium... You shit Hangeland, you absolute shit. If we keep managing to play like that and actually start converting some more of our chances some teams in this league are gonna pay at the hands of Aston Villa. FACT

Zuluuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu

SOLD OUT signs gone up now on the OS, can't wait

So which parts of stand have we got, just the upper like last season or all of the upper + some of the lower?

Stoke was a mystery but I have to defend the Spurs thing because we did sell out our alllocation it's just the allocation was very small, I noticed they give everyone it now apart from Man Utd and CL games.

I posted a link earlier up the thread but the whole ground is sold out now.

What a shit allocation. Fair play for the prices though, they will be sold out within a few days...

The OS hasn't said sold out yet has it? I know all the Fulham sections (including neutral) are sold out.

Anyone know how many are left?

Bollocks to Small Heath fans I ain't scared :winkold:

We have to play 2 up front with Ash on the wing, sticking the ball in the sprout bag is our problem at the moment and Heskey alone up top is not going to help our cause...

From past experiences SHA fans are all mouth anyway behind a wall of Police then when actually faced with confrontation they whine and cry and shit themselves...Much like their players.

Birmingham Mail article says only 7 arrested. Quite surprising really thought there would have been more. The cup game at the Sty is going to be ten times worse...Dreading it.

Too right I'm lumbered with restricted view...

I saw some blokes up on a wall filming the kerfuffle afterwards so I dont suppose it will be too long before it appears on YouTube. Police chopper was no doubt filming it all and there is a video on there from a helicopter when we beat them 2-1 at the sty.

Only the 1 this time mate? You feeling alright? :winkold:

I don't wear colours to derby games, never have so I suppose I'm a knob as well :winkold: Jokes aside thats probably all it was but it seemed like there were lots involved, a lot of baiting going on and a lot of police. I'm dreading the LC game...

Unfortunately I think your right, look no further than what happened last time we played them in a night game. I was thinking watching that outside the ground today that we could have our allocation at the Sty restricted because of it, and it would make things easier for the plod. It's all too easy to say that it is only SHA fans that cause trouble but ashamed as I am to admit it, we have our fair share of morons as well...

Maybe it was but a lot of people seemed to be involved and of course there were hundreds of police officers, still not nice when things are being thrown and there was red smoke around and I heard only off a mate who was there before me that it was a Villa fan who threw the thing into SHA supporters which I hope isn't true...But I have never had to full-on sprint away from a football ground unless I've been late for a train so I presumed it must be spilling over into the side streets and quite nastily too. Police helicopter was buzzing about and while I was crossing the road by Witton station under the bridge it looked like the trouble had moved down the road towards Witton Island, obviously I didn't hang around enough to give a minute by minute commentary but this is just what i experienced.

I agree with an above poster about London Midland, I went from Lichfield Trent Valley to London Euston yesterday got an off-peak return which cost me only £17.00! Takes a bit longer than Virgin but well worth it for the price.

Caught wind of a fair old scuffle on Witton Lane by the away entrance afterwards, smoke bomb/flares were obviously used and us normal supporters were scattering to get away down the side roads...Anyone know anything more?
