Let’s face it. Without Warnock coming in this week, about 10,000 would have turned up tomorrow with little hope or expectation and a shit atmosphere. Now I reckon there will be a good turnout, raised expectations and a great atmosphere. It’s given us a little hope and excitement for a few hours at least (even if we ultimately concede after 10 seconds and get hammered😂!). Hopefully though this is the start of the great escape sequel. 2-0 Town! Exactly. First time this season I’ve felt excited about a game. The nations sports media and hopefully a good crowd should make for a great atmosphere - even if it only lasts til 10 past 3!

NW is canny he is experienced enough to know what he’s doing in lowering any expectations. (In saying survival may be out of touch) The news he was coming in made some of us forget of the last 6 months of mainly bab football and results.
He is a born winner and I pray he finds a way of playing the best way for our players.. hoping they step up and actually play though!

I took an afternoon off work to catch up on something that needed doing which should free up enough time tomorrow for me to now make the match. I'm not expecting miracles but if there's an intent and willingness along wih some basic organisation and pattern at least it's a start.

I’m taking a load of tampons to hand to the players if they perform like they have in the last 2 games.

At the very least we can hope for a battling performance tomorrow, with two blokes on the touchline who won't accept less than maximum effort. We have a crap squad, but as long as we're more organised, have some sort of visible game plan and put 100% in, I'll probably leave happy- even if it's a defeat.

Now or never isn’t it. Hope the crowd can drag these boys to victory, the senior pros owe everyone a performance. No excuses left for all involved. Hope he names Hudlin on the bench, would love to see a bit of chaos in the Birmingham box if we are chasing a goal.

Very difficult task we now face after the last 2 months shambles
Not helped by a currently ridiculous injury list & daft transfer decisions last month
We’re a very small team - I get why some complained about Pearson at right back but you you need some height in there
We look vulnerable there - I guess best form of defence is attack and keep the ball at the other end
He’s had one day so next week a better opportunity
I’ve read some ridiculous things on here after Weds - the worst being never want to see Hogg play this season. Quite frankly nonsense - been poor the last month but key if we want to have a chance of staying up, will get in Warnock’s trenches - this is a guy who quite literally broke his neck playing for this club. Deserves some respect.
Anyhow whatever you think of any player they need backing now, no time for booing or being toxic - need 100% support particularly given player’s availability. 15 very hard games to try rescue us

I'll give it everything today as a supporter. Warnock is right, we absolutely have to get behind the team. No jumping on their backs as soon as there is one misplaced pass.
I hope the South Stand actually front up for once and make the noise.

yes 100 percent need to back the team now but they also need to give the fans some effort and desire,minimum requirement for a warnock side,just think we are a team of yellow bellys and not up for the fight.not going into individual names its clear who they are and yes you would defo want hogg in the trenches and he is a leader but this is football and at the moment he as been shocking

Your post reminds me of what he said about Lucas J, in that they just stick him in the box nowadays, hoping his height does the rest… I hope those words don’t prove true today. Come on Town!!!

Hope he names Hudlin on the bench, would love to see a bit of chaos in the Birmingham box if we are chasing a goal. This is just what Simpson did when he made his brief appearances. Didn't look the greatest footballer but caused defenders more problems with his pace and strength than any of our other like for like forwards.

I have faith In Warnock, I have faith he will give his all. I also have faith he will do everything he can tactically and to motivate the players. And I have some ( but not complete ) hope that we can escape what seems the inevitable. I shall be there today giving my full support and I hope all fans approach this game in the same spirit. We need to give him and the squad our backing , they will faLter and may not succeed, but booing the players from now to the end of the season should be an absolute NO.

I think he scored the other week so we should be alright.
Never that prolific was he.

We've really missed having someone around who'll get the opposition running back towards their own goal.

I just hope if it goes against us today fans will understand the injury’s we have plus Neil hasn’t had much time but perhaps I’m asking for to much with some but I’m sure we will all be behind the team today utt!!

Our goalie's crocked Our defence is a shambles Our midfield is slow and weak Our strikers couldn't hit a cow's arse with a banjo
But with Warnock back anything is still possible.
