Coventry v Blues Fans Reaction
Blues fans react to the defeat at Coventry
Rooney out. We did it to get rid of Dong now we have to do it again. It’s a disgrace. Only Donovan can take any credit at least he tried
Any manager without that “name” would be gone by now
We are sh.t.. Period..
We play like we’re in league 2.. 😒
Would love to know what the hell do they do in training week in week out that they can’t do on the pitch.
From the 1st minute to the end we were shocking M.O.T.M for me was Roberts.
Clueless. No Effort. Well not enough effort. We Need a Fast Striker.
Front foot football,no shots to save,open all over the pitch,Stansfield class around a load of crap & brings do nothing Burke & hogan in.Rooney just do one ffs
Shocking display from everyone. My MOM the fans their were awesome.
Don’t know what’s happened to bieliek he was the most solid midfielder we’ve had for years and now he looks like he doesn’t care less and the injury to sanderson sounds really strange Rooney said he woke up with his foot throbbing 🤔
After that showing, my kids now want a Wrexham top for Christmas as too embarrassed to wear the Blues top around town. Whilst these coaches are killing the team, we are losing a generation of fans
Genuinely believe Cole and O Shea could turn Messi and Ronaldo into useless players
I am numb. Speechless and numb. Extortionate ticket price aside, that was a disaster yet again and what can anyone see in that mess?
I just can’t figure out what is the x-factor here that has caused this abysmal free fall! Rooney? New owners? Current squad? Gypsy’s curse?? Supporting blues certainly is quite hazardous to one’s mental health
I would like to know what game plan we are supposed to be playing do we blame the players for not playing to the plan or the management team

But I’m one of the many Fans that’s wrong apparently ? Being told we ain’t got a clue, it will come good blah, Blah, Blah -insert Club Sponsored Gaslighting- get all the ‘ Special ‘ influencer fans online telling us everything is ok 👍🏻 LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL LOL at Gary Cook, And Shame on the Owners for pretending they got it right still
you look like American clowns who ain’t got a clue what your doing !! Was never the correct decision. Cook has mugged you right off 🫵🏻 no matter how much you pay the media and people in it to tell us otherwise
I’ve Not been proven wrong once yet 💋
I hope I am though and very soon before it’s too late ! Nothing will make me happier 👍🏻
That said tonight the determination, Fitness and graft was there for all to see and ofcourse playing 442 in this division helps paper over the many cracks that have appeared since Mr Rooney was appointed.
So what’s the next excuse ??????? How long until you accept the obvious
And if it wasn’t for Big John in goal we would of conceded a lot more tonight
I take zero pleasure in mocking the club I’ve supported for 40 year, but this isn’t the first time we have had this done to us and I’m fed up of being told I’m wrong, I’m not a ‘ True ‘ supporter, I must blindly show support for a team that’s getting relegated through stupid decisions.
After all the excitement of new owner the Hilton and I’ll nearly complete 6th in the table .bank blues f*** it up and appoint at what a big mistake get rid now before he waists a transfer window and brings more clowns go and find it blues can get Graham potter in and save this season I have supported blues for over 60 years this is the worst I have ever seen and that’s saying a lot get it right now before the fans turn against the owners like they did about the last lot…kro
Dressing room gone,he lost it the first day when he told the players if you don’t want to play the way l want then get out the door,fatal mistake.
clueless looney please leave sooney
To take stansfield off and leave Jukey on says it all just how inept Rooney is.This can’t continue and Cook must act
Strange that nearly every player is getting injured ???seems like nobody wants to play for Ruiney.
Front foot football !!! what exactly does that mean? if it means getting one shot on target in an entire match and having your goalkeeper continuously as man of the match for limiting the opposition to just 2 goals (or 4 last week) then logic states Back foot football is by far the better option.
it is now 8 away defeats in a row, the worse in 30 years, with a home record not much better since Rooney took over. if he is allowed to continue the January and into February, it will be too late to avoid the drop to the 3rd tier. the main problem is the CEO who insisted on Rooney and is now insisting we stick with him
Get rid, Get Rowett and Eustace back in as head coaches on interim contract, if they steady the ship give them next season with funds and see what happens..
They know the club, The Fans and I truly believe the players would play for them !
Whether Rowett and Eustace could put aside egos and do what’s best for the team and more importantly the supporters is a challenge. It would be mocked in the media, Some fans would be in outrage. But if they could work together as Head Coaches and give the supporters pride again
It could be time to fuel the rocket ship and take off up the table 🚀
Or POTTER ! Who was the only reason to remove Eustace in the First place
It still would have been harsh on John BUT an outstanding appointment that ticks all the boxes
Proven at this Level
Knows the Club
Statement of Real Intent From Owners
Plays the Style they want
I’d take Big Sam at this point or Neil Warnock !
But ideally Rowett / Eustace Combo will never happen 😞
Mr Rooney has to go, his position has become untenable. The vast majority of the fans never wanted him to start with, and we’ve seen nothing to convince us otherwise. It appears obvious that the players haven’t bought into Rooneyball, no surprises there considering the criticism aimed at them. Amazing how they were fit and good enough to get up to sixth! So put your own ego to one side Garry Cook and do what’s best for the fans and club and retain a degree of dignity. Get him gone.
I hold my hands up , i was prepared to give it a bit of time and quite honestly part of me wants Rooney to succeed . I honestly believe the players have decided to throw the towel in and when that happens there is only one winner ! It breaks my heart to say it but get Warnock in or even Paul Robinson , the rot has to be stopped either one of those two could do it . Will it happen ? I doubt it ,so we have got great new owners who have made one mistake amongst everything else they have done ,unfortunately that mistake is ultimately the only decision they needed to get right ! KRO
I don’t think anybody wants Rooney to fail, we certainly don’t want to see our club yet again in a mess. It’s not personal with Rooney in any capacity ! But the fact is he is not the right man for Birmingham City, it’s obvious, was obvious when they was bringing him in he wasn’t wanted or needed. It is personal with Cook he orchestrated the lot and it was in no way for the benefit of the club !! NONE !!! Rooney has zero managerial history of note, the stats are there for anybody to go and look at
The man shouldn’t have had the job in the first place, I say all the time I hope they prove me wrong ! I’d love them to prove me wrong ! I’ll be the happiest bloke in Brum if they do.
But there is zero evidence of anything getting better. January we got one hand tied behind our back with FFP,
I don’t think it’s harsh to support and love a football club and to want it to succeed ! That’s all we want, to be honest 99% of blues fans would of taken stability this year and build next year, the positivity was coming back, people would of purchased tickets and spent their money !!
I know I moan a lot, but I’ve supported this club for 40 year, I’ve seen 75000 of us at the old Wembley, I went leyland Daff, Auto Windscreens, Worthington Cup, League Cup, home and away for many years, I remember going to Barnsley in the play offs and it was freezing, no roof, snow the lot and we got hammered 4-0 in the first leg, I’ve been and seen the lot. Barry Fry, Trevor Francis, Rowett, Zola, Redknapp, Karanka, Monk and many, many more ! We had the crab in the middle Barry Horne he could go sideways with the best of them. Mark Ward, Chrissy Holland, Steve Robinson ! I seen Ricky Otto score on his debut then go and score a power header own goal in the same game,
People tell me I’m not a ‘ True Supporter ‘ because I have the audacity to tell the truth of the situation !
If Rooney don’t lose ! I don’t care about winning at the minute it’s more important to not lose ! If he can prove me wrong in the next 4 games and not lose then give him January, May aswell now. But if we lose another game he has to go !! It’s truly that simple ! If you own a business and your sales team keep losing contracts you’d sack them ! Football is a wonderful industry to get into once your in it you never lose ! You get paid millions to fail actually ! Contracts paid up regardless
Very lucky people who are in that industry 🫵🏻
Brilliant article Michael, yes l’ve also shared some of your memories, plus of course the infamous Mr Wheeldon and of course the Kumar brothers. Mr Wagner has a fantastic vision for our club, and l agree most of us would have accepted a season of stability. So why on earth did the club decide at that early stage to destabilise that situation? So accepting that John Eustace was not their man, why on earth would you choose Rooney from a footballing perspective, when there were and still are much better candidates, with proven track records and far greater experience. I’m Blues through and through, but this current situation is totally depressing. Get it sorted Mr Cook.
Thank you Stan appreciate that mate x we all want the same end of the day x a footy team that gives 100%. Enjoys their football and playing with confidence. If we can get that the fans will make the difference.
I’ll never forget what Alan Davies said after the league cup with Arsenal, he said as soon as the game kicked off a wall of noise come from the Birmingham end and we knew we was in trouble
Remember when we beat Tottenham in the Prem and Hoddle said it’s the most intimidating toxic atmosphere I’ve ever experienced and many teams will struggle here
Damian Johnson scored a worldy 🫵🏻
The facts are undeniable, fans generally accepted the signings made during pre-season were quality signings and could only improve the squad and provide the depth required to perform well in the Championship. The first ten games gave all of us encouragement and hope of better things ahead. The change of ownership was welcomed and trusted to initiate the necessity to change structure, ambition and development with the ultimate aim to make our beloved Blues a club to be proud of once again. A successful global entity to be recognised around the world.
Nine games later with the introduction of Wayne Rooney we find ourselves 4 points above the relegation zone, 5 points from a possible 27, leaking goals at an alarming rate and failure to convert chances into goals. Players under performing, making errors and wrong decisions. A recipe for disaster and dare I say RELEGATION.
Let’s face the truth Mr Rooney was appointed with the intention to improve the profile of the club, media coverage and a statement of intent with no management experience of note.
How can a team play with “NO FEAR” not to mention confidence with this poor run of results and the threat of relegation becoming more of a reality game by game. I genuinely don’t know where we can expect another 3 points from the upcoming fixtures.
It seems to me the board believe the January transfer window will be our saviour, I would suggest this to be reckless and or naive, what with FFP rules and how difficult it will be to off load current players. Retention of our promising young players will be imperative.
I do hope I’m wrong and will be the first blue nose to praise and applaud improvement in the coming weeks.
