I'm saying that he has negative tactics Alan, on sky last season against Stoke

with five minutes to and 0-0, when stoke were no force at all in the league, he put a centre back on and played for the point

Imagine him taking over here, he's going to be the same, would he handle the pressure?

In the prem we were away to them, and they went 1-0 up. You and I know just how crap we were away. They were 1nil up with Holt walking about with a lung disorder

We came out second half, stuck Helveg on and draw 1-1

We beat them on the survival run at the end of the season too.

Grant's first game in charge, seemingly after we looked a mess at Burnley and we win at St Andrews 1-0

Again towards the end of the season as Birmingham are charging for promotion we get them to a great goal by Huckerby

You could say we're their bogey side, I don't see it, I just see a negative man manager who plays for draws when the s**t hits the fan, and that doesn't help you in the premiership
