Giro Posted October 18, 2015 Share Posted October 18, 2015 If they somehow come up I seriously think they will be bottom by a big margin. Rowett seems like more and more of a **** every time he speaks to the media. does he? Think he comes across well nobody will ever come close to Timmy boy Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Demitri_C Posted October 19, 2015 Share Posted October 19, 2015 Its right w ehave to give them their due we are the laughing stocks at the moment. As much as I dislike blose you cant fault Rowlett. Comes across like a good guy and made a poor squad look like one of the best teams in the league. I called it last season that they will go up Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

turnbull Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 Much as it pains me to admit it, it looks like this could be Blues' season. Rowett is doing a cracking job for them and doing the main thing in this business, getting results. It's a total contrast to what's going on at B6 and all in all it's a bit depressing. I do agree that the title of the thread needs changing, if only until they start shooting themselves in the foot again!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Demitri_C Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 These lot are coming up winning again, shows what a good manager can do for a club, thats why I refuse to believe our squad is not good enough to stay up 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 They have been ridiculously lucky with the managers they've had the last couple of years somehow churning points out of an abysmal collection of players. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rugeley Villa Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 cant fault them at the minute, could be swapping places. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Genie Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 If we went down, part of me would not want to play them in the championship so would want to swap places with them. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zatman Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 for all the praise that they are getting on here they couldnt beat us and are still the shittest team to play at Villa Park this season (Villa excluded)Notts County even offered more than themTim tactically outclassed Rowett with his subs Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VillaChris Posted October 20, 2015 Share Posted October 20, 2015 They're doing very well, can't argue about that.Very small squad though, they haven't got much beyond the first 11 so a few injuries and suspensions and they'll start losing games which they did either side of the cup game.Still the Lee Clark days sadly seem a lifetime ago now.

AvfcTheObsession Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 They have no chance of automatic promotion according to a couple of my mates who support them. They admit they are overachieving massively, and don't have much depth. If they get in the play-offs that would be a very good season for them, and I think that's about the height of their ambition.

PaulC Posted October 21, 2015 Share Posted October 21, 2015 The play-offs would be a massive achivement for them, given the state they were in when Rowett took over. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They admit they are overachieving massively, and don't have much depth. If they get in the play-offs that would be a very good season for them, and I think that's about the height of their ambition.I spoke to two Blues fans today, the one guy I work with everyday, and they don't think they have any chance of promotion. Their squad is too small.They are going very well at the moment and Rowett has taken over 70 points in his 43 games in charge apparently. He looks to be a decent manager and certainly has them organised.It is only 12 games into a 46 game season for them and a couple of injuries, suspensions and the inevitable burn out that comes with playing the same players will almost certainly mean they will drop back. A top 10 finish would be a really successful season given that squad was assembled on a shoe string and the maximum wage they are paying is 5k a week.

Personally i think that is clutching at straws and being hopeful, I think they are going to be up there, they keep keeping clean sheets and coming back from behind. that is signs of a good side at that level. I am suprised that no-one else has came in for Rowett to be honest. Would ahve thought Derby might have come in or even Sunderland. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
