Transfer of the season is AM to Villa

So wtf was all the fuss about when the ginger Jock 'deserted you'??

and dont get too carried away. Its only because you've got a Baggie up front.

Very true tidyvwbaggie.

and don't you get carried away. It's only because you've got Brums keeper that your not bottom...

True RBC... maybe in Jan we do a deal, we keep Wood and Myhill, they keep Foster...

The fuss was all about.......losing our manager was a final straw after all the problems being unveiled about th charges against our owner etc etc. We were pretty raw back then and still are with that hanging over us.

I like Chris Woods, but the reason he is scoring so many for us, and he wasn't for you is that he is playing ats the spearhead in front of a tremendous attack mined team, in CH's fashion. I have no doubt that Marlon King (who has been superb with his assists) will take up the mantle of key scorer when and if Chris returns to you.

There is only one person at our our club that I fear losing, & that is CH himself. oh & maybe a bit for Dave Watson too.

Agreed ED. Let's say if we had Wood on loan to us last season with AM in charge I doubt he would have found the back of the net at all. He would have had to control a long ball, turn a defender and score a goal whereas now he's getting plenty of balls to him in the box from the wing and also from King. We create so many more goalscoring chances than we used to that it's easier for the strikers to get on the scoresheet.

The fact of the matter is almost every blues fan had had enough of AM, his shocking football and his footballing inabillity. He IMO was the reason we went down, at the end of the day every single player we had was of premiership standard, the only thing that wasnt was his style of football. The fact that any manager can walk across the road to another teams bitter rivals is bad enough but after that manager took you down is,imo, unforgiveable.
Even a Baggie fan must be able to see that????
As has been stated if it wasnt Wood scoring the goals it would be king or one of the others, its the style of play that is producing the goals not the goal scorer if you like.
Excellent point about Kings assists, I mentioned the same thing the other day to a mate of mine. We do need to keep Wood on loan for the rest of this season, he has settled in well and he and King have a good understanding of each other.

If you were to do a pros and cons of AM and CH it would be overwhelming, I know who every single footie fan would rather have as their manager

Burke scores two today, Zigic and Rooney were getting opportunities in Brugge, the full backs were pouring forward; it's clearly the style of play rather than us just having Wood.
