How does this game have any impact on first team? We needed certain players to have some game time. Thats what Mowbray decide to do

well I'm sorry but I couldn't give a toss about any cup competitions and this season sole aim was promotion. would you rather we have a fixture pile up like Wigan who are facing 15 games in 60 days?

what your obsession with slanging of Samuel and Nuttall now? another target of your just like Nyambe. You clearly dislike/hate them cos who their agents are. Last night game was a practice game at best and nothing more. It served a purpose and nothing more

I did say recently that Samuel is lacking confidence. He needs Mowbray, coaching staff and Graham/Dack to support and help him through this spell of his career

"At this moment he has to be patient and work hard in training, do extra work, extra finishing and build his confidence." https://t.co/6afrnnHX21

No idea. Middle order collaspe cost us 50 to 60 runs.. Some of bowling wasnt good enough. Why didnt Woakes all of his overs?

Birmingham's problems started when they sacked Rowett for Zola.. Looking at their squad is a fairly good and shouldbt be in bottom 3. Just been official comfirm now Steve and his backroom staff have gone "Steve’s contract, and those of the backroom staff – First Team Coach Paul Groves, First Team Coach Paul Williams, Goalkeeper Coach Kevin Hitchcock, Director of Football Jeff Vetere, David Álvarez (Head of Sports Science and Medical) and Albert Altarriba-Bartés (First Team Strength and Conditioning Coach) – have been terminated with immediate effect." big clearout there. Look like a complete different structure being put in.

Look like Monk.will take over.. Ex Swansea, Leeds and Boro boss

Cotterial sacked at Birmingham

use hawkeye for penalty calls how does that work then? offside yes very possible but you cant keep stopping the game I feel that fans in Germany and Italia don't want it involved in football, and with fans at Wembely booing each time the system was being used

the offside rule is more complicated than ever Goal line decisions is nothing to do with VAR Whether its a foul or not is not a Simple decision at all. but the VAR isn't quick, suggest you look at how badly the systems are in Germany and Italy and how fed up fans are already. I did post a link to the Germany fans being fed up

Different sports. Alot of football decisions are opinions based not fact Ive always said it wont work in football.

VAR experiment need to drop and forgotten about now. The system is farcical and yesterday game proved it.. The ref yesterday wasnt good enough and frieghten to actually proper decision. Using VAR system is killing football and annoyed most fans. Always said it wouldnt work in Footnall and so far I seen nothing to prove me wrong

Surprise Reading hasnt sack Stam yet

Injury

True. I was wrong. Im pleased he proved me wrong Not for me, different expectations for different players. If you disagree fair enough. Samuel has started 16 games out of 27 games he played him this season with 5 goals. Look more than occasional sub appearance doesnt it?

If I remember correctly I was unhappy with Graham performances and work rate from an experience player. But I didnt compare him Best tho did I

Has Mowbray question Samuel about work rate or attitude or performances in the past 4 months?

How is Mowbray not convince then? He picked a team on performances and rightly Dack, Graham and Armstrong ahead based on form,. Has Mowbray question his work rate or Attitude?

you wrote @roversfan99, the quote was "the point was they both have attributes that are useful" I am not interested in Samuel's previous managers views at all, I only interested in Mowbray opinion of him, look at players like Di Canio or Cantona and how Ferguson and Redknapp got the best out of them despite previous managers negative views on that. Mowbray signed him here despite what the previous managers thoughts are. The form of Graham and currently Armstrong have kept him out of the starting lineup but he will be need before end of the season.

Did neither but lets move on Best is useful? Really? Good at scoring own goals. Samuel is dropped due to Graham form and scoring goals. Fair play to Graham. Samuel looked disinterested and ineffective on Saturday? Still worked on despited poor service and lack of support. Exactly. But Mowbray did take to him and why he signed him. Does he have a poor attitude now? Not bothered about past but now and future. For me, he got talent but low on confidence due lack of game time and scoring goals which is understand tbh.

You make the comparison to Leon Best which was completely unjustified. No wonder it got people back up. Previous managers? Mowbray signed him here after having him at Coventry on loan, so Mowbray hadnt giving up on him tho. Look yesterday, the service to him was poor and attacking wise we were poor second half. Still chasing the ball down and look to work hard. So very unfair to say Application not there. Samuel isnt a target man like Graham is. He needs a run of games just like Graham did back in November.

Think Mowbray already knew he was off. Since leaving here done nothing

Reckon the players who wanted out was Lenihan Mulgrew Evans Steele
