Can't see us getting beat until perhaps Cardiff away always a bogey ground for us, Burnley will play a weakened team against us (part of the Wood deal?) so we should win that game

Re: Tuesday's Breakfast Debate....Our first loss this season
We must also bear in mind that this league is very much on the day .. I'd say a lot of teams are well able to beat one another.
Form can go out the window and home form has to be paramount. A lot of sides know what the others are about .Tjougj hopefully with our knew additions and team spirit we can match and catch out most of 'em.

Really hard to pick but I do think it will be because we have an off day rather than someone outplays us.

Re: Tuesday's Breakfast Debate....Our first loss this season
When the fixtures came out the one I was dreading was the Millwall game, I think the last 8 games there have been 1 win 7 defeats, they always seem to raise their game for us. Mind we haven't got a great record at home v Birmingham, last 7- won 1 drew 2 lost 4. Hoodoo's are there to be beat I suppose.
I'll go Millwall.
I'll go Millwall.

Re: Tuesday's Breakfast Debate....Our first loss this season
Short answer is I don't know, but how we react to it will give us an idea of how far this team can go this season. Confidence is high, we're playing well, but we will have an off day at some point. As long as we dust ourselves off and move on, then we will be fine

We've beaten them 0-2 the last two seasons.
One of our best away performances last year. Hernandez had a stormer scoring a stunning goal
Really hoping possibly we'll inflict their first defeat just to get Warnock in a lather although Preston could do them tonight especially as it's at Deepdale

Re: Tuesday's Breakfast Debate....Our first loss this season
From what I have seen so far in our six games this season plus the highlights of various games on the telly I don't fear any team.
Fulham looked the best team but the Cottagers are struggling to win games winning only one & drawing 4 of the 6 matches
Derby looked strong v Hull but the rams always flatter to deceive

Re: Tuesday's Breakfast Debate....Our first loss this season
It could well be the Brummies Harry, they will have to raise their game significantly if they are the team to beat us on current form. Jota is their danger man, if we can keep him quiet I hopefully we'll get a resultHarryofOz wrote:You are tempting fate Leon mate...I bet it'll be the Brummies now ;)

Oh I do think we owe Arry one and it would be nice too. Knowing him though he won't take this one lightly and they could be hard to beat. Might not be much on this one.

Re: Tuesday's Breakfast Debate....Our first loss this season
Form can be extremely fickle in the championship and a team looking amazing can suddenly lose 3 on the bounce and look awful. Don't forget our best performance last season, beating Derby 1-0, was followed up by us getting drubbed at Barnsley where we were absolutely abysmal.
Any team is capable of beating us in the championship and more important we are more than capable of beating ourselves by getting carried away and then not performing to the maximum, or one of those games where whatever we try just doesn't come off.

Sky Sports just put the jinx on us, saying that we are on our way back to the big time....HarryofOz wrote:You are tempting fate Leon mate...I bet it'll be the Brummies now ;)
I thought we would smash 3 past brummies tonight but after all the tv hype I think we could come a cropper...
Re: Tuesday's Breakfast Debate....Our first loss this season
What's all this jinx, bogey team, fickle negativity all about ?
Come on folks lets be positive this season
Oh b*gger now I've put the mockers on us

Re: Tuesday's Breakfast Debate....Our first loss this season
I don't know, I don't want to know and I am not personally going to tempt fate by hazarding a guess.
I remember a certain season when Burnley beat us 5-1 and that was a shock.
