exactly
that is not the aim of the game, what's he talking about
you only win things with stability and a strong spine, we have neither |  | |  |

What a load of Bol**cks, saying, 'it's all about getting players on the pitch'.
This isn't the under 11's where you want to give everyone a game because they turned up for training !
As for comment that Jack is so smooth on the ball. It's not hard passing it sideways and backwards all the time, or standing there inviting players to close you down quickly.
I just don't get Martin's love in with Stephens, and maintain we should play best defensive players available, in their best positions. [Post edited 6 Mar 7:56]

He’s in serious danger of undermining his own authority with acts of weakness.
It is this sort of thing which week by week will create divisions within the dressing-room.
You can overcome these things when the team are winning.
But when they’re not……. |  |

Although I usually try to offer alternative viewpoints in order to give some perspective, I find it hard to argue with any of the comments.
It is about getting points, and earlier in the season he didn't apply that strategy to Mason Holgate who never played again after a man of the match performance against West Brom.
Players do know when someone is a favourite and whether players deserve to play or not,
The foundations of any team are at the back, we have upset the balance and organisation at the back, On Saturday Birmingham knew that we were going to be adapting to a major reshuffle and went for the jugular.
I would have had no proble with Stephens coming in at right back, but we reshuffled and broke up a central defensive partnership to give him a game,
The proof of the pudding is in the eating and we conceded 3 goals |  |

It’s about getting Ryan Manning on the pitch isn’t it? |  |

I'm not sure RM is picking the team.
He's probably relying on senior players like AA & JS to influence his selection & to make sure that they get a game. | | | |

But he has dropped AA recently. | |

None of what you lot are saying makes much sense.
Nick said we let three in against Brum with a changed defence.
We let three in against Huddersfield with Manning THB Bedders KWP line up.
We lost to Hull at home and Bristol City Away conceding 5 goals in the process... Defence was Manning, THB, Bedders, KWP.
We beat WBA 2 nil.. Best performance of the season etc... Guess what Stephens was in at left back.
It's quite simple guys. Flynn Downes. | | | |

I could have sworn he was playing on Saturday when we let in another 3.
but yeah, midfield matters too | | | |

I know he was, probably one of our better performers.
I'm just pointing out we also let 3 in with our favoured (mine also) defence.
Just find it strange that so many supporters have agendas against certain players.
It's almost as if they've made their minds up and fragile ego syndrome kicks in and it's hard to say.. Maybe I got that wrong.
Not everyone of course.
There are some classy operators on here thankfully. | | | |

That's correct Pat.
We blew that match with a Bedders handball and a Bazunu cock up. | | | |
