A disappointing end to the week as we went down to Birmingham.
The positive that did come from the weekend were the defeats for both Norwich and Barnsley which, barring a mathematical catastrophe, guarantees Championship football for us next season.
The game itself was one that, in truth, Birmingham edged. Scott was called into action on several occasions and made some excellent stops and, in my opinion, was our star performer on the day. This was a great test for us as it’s looking likely that Birmingham will be a Premiership team next season so this gave us a good benchmark as to where we need to get to in order to push for a promotion place next season.
The following week looks set to be a quiet one with only two games now remaining until the summer break’s upon us.
Having only the one game means it has been quite a quiet week; training has still been at good intensity and there’s certainly no thought of easing down towards the summer break, which I had no doubts about anyway.
Despite having little to play for now, we still very much want to win our last two games and finish the season on a high and give us momentum to into next season.
All being well I’ll be reporting on the first of those victories next week!
