I think the size and quality of squad will pay dividends in Jan and Feb when clubs with smaller clubs will be getting injuries and players getting tired due to the number of games and the conditions. Blues should have the ability to get through this period much better than the teams around us.
Thank you very much for your comment Bob which is greatly appreciated. I agree, we should start to reap the benefits of our strong squad over the next few months. KRO!
Going today with my lad , he loves the Blues 💙 and the last game we went was Cardiff last season so looking forward for him to see a pack out ground vibing come on Blue's ! KRO
Thank you very much for your comment which is greatly appreciated. A fantastic game to take you boy too and I hope you both have a fantastic time! KRO!
100% I feel sorry for the lad. He may not be defensively great but he’s there to cause havoc with speed which he generally does. We should have a strong enough midfield and defence to compensate for the young lad as he matures. He is a good threat going forward that we do not utilise enough.
great pod as always lads! I think blues have now figured out how to beat these lower teams now after the banana skin at Shrewsbury and Northampton. second half at Crawley Davies managed to get paik on the ball in the middle and we played better then. credit to davies for finding a way to win. I think today no banana skin, play our game, break them down and win 2-0. KRO and Merry Christmas
Thank you very much for your comment Josh which is greatly appreciated. Every game in this division is a possible banana skin for us but a win today will keep the run going and keep us top, so let’s do it! KRO!
Interesting stat for me is that we're the divisions second best home team (to Wrexham) and also second best away team (to Wycombe) - point being that we are consistent and are successfully adapting our tactics Personally I think we are improving each match but really need to put teams away early and then keep our foot down, impose ourselves and crush them Hopefully today's game will be the start of that KRO lads, happy anniversary for this podcast !!
Thank you very much for your comment which is greatly appreciated. I still think we have a few gears to go and we have not really hit our stride yet. It’s all a good sign for the rest of the season. KRO!
Good morning. Happy Boxing Day 🥊 😁 I can't wait for today's game. The atmosphere is going to be absolutely buzzing in and around the ground before the game and i think we'll get an early goal and be relentless today, i just have a feeling. The atmosphere is going to be unbelievable. I think we just go for it today. It will be interesting to see how we set up and who plays. Bielik will move to centre half to play alongside Davies and that means either Gardner-Hickman or Laird in at right back. I think Laird did well when he came on at left back against Crawley so i wouldn't be surprised to see him giving the nod at right back, but i really like Gardner-Hickman. Leonard has got to start!!!! I would play him at 10 with Willumsson on the bench or Iwata or Paik need to be rotated. I would much rather see Yokoyama on the bench over Hansson. It will be interesting to see if Sanderson is in the squad?? If he's not in the squad he's definitely off! Buchanan can play at centre half if needs be but he's still working his way back from injury. So his minutes at left back are still being managed. I don't mind if Dykes start. I would prefer to start with May. Anderson and Stansfield are the attacking players most in form. But like you rightly say we have a proper squad and we need to see more rotation, especially with the games coming thick and fast. Blues to win 2, 3 or 4 nil. An early goal, a brilliant atmosphere and just go for it despite Burton parking the bus. Enjoy the pre game drinks 🍻 KRO 💙
Thank you very much for your comment Richard which is greatly appreciated. It should be a great atmosphere today and like you we are really looking forward to it as well! I agree about Beilek reverting back to centre half and I dint think we will see Dion in the squad or possibly in a Blues shirt again. Let’s keep the winning run going and bring home the three points. An early goal is what we need! KRO!
@BCFCRoyalBlue 100% let's keep right on this amazing winning run. I'm not getting to the ground until 13.30 so I very much doubt we'll get into the fan park as I think it will be absolutely heaving so we will be having beers outside but the weather is good for it. Either way it's going to be busy and buzzing. Blues, Blues, Blues!!!! KRO 💙
Hi both. I liked the comment " Davies has loyalty to Laird and Harris" . A good point. I much prefer TGH and Leonard, every time. Definitely, i agree playing Dykes. I know i go against the majority, but he will always have a more dangerous impact than May. Both of them are, at present not scoring goals, so Dykes to start most times. Good research as always about the opposition.. in reality, without Jay, we are living dangerously, because most games are won by a single goal. Is a top GOAL SCORER, out of the question in January window? Thank you for my favourite show.
Thank you very much for your comment Mikey which is greatly appreciated. The team selection will. F very interesting today as we are all expected some rotation. We are pleased that you enjoy our podcasts. Up the Blues! KRO!
Nice one guys, can’t disagree with anything you both said here, would like to see Dykes get a start, I feel he needs it, he needs to start scoring for his confidence, thinking 3-1 today, early goal will set the tempo to a comfortable win….💙
Thank you very much for your comment which is greatly appreciated. Let’s hope so. A good performance would be fantastic but as always the three points is the main thing. KRO!
Merry Christmas guys loving the podcast. I really don't like Laird in the back maybe in a five as he loses the ball too much for me. At Exeter as right back he was all over the place. Blues 3-1 today KRO.
Good morning both ,I can't see anything but a win , Burton will park the bus , I'd give Yokoyama a go on the right and Hanson on the left , and keep driving at them , 3-0 KRO
Thank you very much for your comment Tony which is greatly appreciated. I think we will see some rotation in the squad today, but with just seven substitutes I’m not sure we will see Yokohama although personally I would like to see him on the bench. KRO!
Very true we need more squad rotation or we will lose players. So past few games Williuson looks tired and I think these scrappy games don’t suit him…. I have been shot down for this opinion but I feel like you say certain players suit certain types of play…. So today would go… Leonard in for Williumson TGH for the back line in the left or right to fill missing Klarer Juke up front I personally feel as much as I love May and he is a work horse sometimes we need a bit of height in that box .. not sure how tall Stanno is … doesn’t look that tall So that’s the changes I’d make today Dykes missed that easy tap in so he is on my bad books right now I also think Laird is great going forward but defending not so good Anderson all day every day for me he is in FIRE! 🔥 Anyway on route to game hopefully get to say hello! KRO!
Thank you very much for your comment Donna which is greatly appreciated. I expect some rotation today so the team selection will be interesting. Hopefully another three points to keep the winning run going. KRO!
Happy Christmas Boys have a wonderful day at B9. I missed out on the question forums, but my question was. This current crop of players how well do you think they would do in the championship ( finishing possition)with the style of football in the championship Here's to a great 2025
Going for a 2-0 blues win. As mentioned in recent history Burton are a bogey team for us. I always remember Villa fan, Lloyd Dyer always scoring against us
The thing that worries me most at this time of the year is just how much have the players enjoyed Xmas. In previous years we have seen evidence of overindulgence. No doubt Chris Davies has emphasized the need for moderation. Let's hope that Burton have been drowning their sorrows
Good morning Grinch 🤣🤣 did you only get socks and lynx Africa for Christmas? 🤣🤣 Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄 Come on cheer up. Be positive 😁 Blues to win 2, 3 or 4 nil. Hopefully 🤣🤣😁 KRO 💙
Thank you very much for your comment which is greatly appreciated. I know that you mean about the past but we are a different team nowadays. We have not blown any teams away yet and we have ground out a number of results however teams try to block us and frustrate us and I can’t see Burton being any different. Hopefully we will keep the winning run going and secure another three points. KRO!
@@BB49. Let me guess.... it took a penalty and an own goal to win today 😆🤣🤣 8 wins in a row. 6 in the league. Another cleansheet. Top of the league. A game in hand over Wycombe and two over Wrexham. Burton parked the bus. We managed the game really well. We didn't need to go through the gears. Another 3 points. Valuable minutes for some players and a rest for others. Blackpool next up. KRO 💙
I can't see the point of us assembling a squad far above the quality of everyone else's first team and then not utilizing the players we have. It must be driving the likes of Leonard round the twist, a player who would be the standout player in any other League 1 team not getting a look in, and that is no criticism of the other players, but everyone needs a rest at times.
We think Leonard could arguably get into most championship teams but it shows the strength of our current squad. It’s crazy! I totally agree that we need slightly more rotation when he have fixture congestion or 3 games in 1 week. KRO! :)
Agree with you both rotation needs to happen, Hickman and Leanord need more games, for definite, the frightening thing is the players we can bring on with 20 to go to change games as well. Enjoy today’s game, I’ll be in the fan park as well so might see you both.
Our squad depth is incredible mate. Our bench alone is pretty frightening at times. We’ve made our way into the Tilton. Enjoying some neck oils :) KRO! :)
Enjoy today's game and give em a shout for me please. Hope you get in the new fanzone. It look's amazing. You should be bouncing even before you enter the ground itself. KRO. SOTV. Sam.
Thank you very much for your comment Sam which is greatly appreciated. Really looking forward to today’s game in what should be a great atmosphere! KRO!

Can’t believe you haven’t mentioned yokoyama! Everytime he has played he has impressed me. KRO boys merry Christmas

Big win today, can’t see any other than a big win ! KRO from Florida, looking forward to getting across the pond for a few games in February ..
Lovely thanks mate, merry Christmas all the way to Florida and if you’re about in February, let us know, we can grab a pint. KRO! :)
I would like to see Jukey on the pitch at some stage today.
Thanks frank, some physicality might certainly be needed. We hope you had a lovely Christmas. KRO! :)

Thank you for your comment which is greatly appreciated. KRO!
Yoko and Leonard to unlock their defence
Thank you very much for your comment Harris which is greatly appreciated. That’s a good shout! KRO!
We thought that about Shrewsbury also.
Thank you for your comment which is greatly appreciated. KRO!
“We’ve learned from Northampton, we’ve learned Shrewsbury, we’ve learned from Mansfield”😂 I know what you mean Matt.
Thank you very much for your comment which is greatly appreciated. KRO!
Grinding out results, not always pretty but a wins a win, KRO 🏴
Thank you for your comment which is greatly appreciated. Exactly, not pretty but three points is three points. Onto Blackpool next! KRO!
@BCFCRoyalBlue Your welcome, kind words from yourself, seasons greetings & have a happy new year 🙏

I want to see Leonard given a start.
Thanks John! KRO! :)
this is going to be an absolute hammering today, our lads are going to be right up for this from the off...

Happy Christmas lads. Fingers crossed for three points. Burton always a bogey team for us.
Thank you very much for your comment Mason which is greatly appreciated. KRO!
Let's hope we stay a bogey team,come on you brewers.
Very true we need more squad rotation or we will lose players.
So past few games Williuson looks tired and I think these scrappy games don’t suit him…. I have been shot down for this opinion but I feel like you say certain players suit certain types of play….
So today would go…
Leonard in for Williumson
TGH for the back line in the left or right to fill missing Klarer
Juke up front I personally feel as much as I love May and he is a work horse sometimes we need a bit of height in that box .. not sure how tall Stanno is … doesn’t look that tall
So that’s the changes I’d make today
Dykes missed that easy tap in so he is on my bad books right now
I also think Laird is great going forward but defending not so good
Anderson all day every day for me he is in FIRE! 🔥
Anyway on route to game hopefully get to say hello!

Thank you very much for your comment Oliver which is greatly appreciated. I remember Lloyd Dyer as well. One of those thorns in our side! KRO!
@OliverEdwards-c4f Lloyd Dyer didn't quite have the same impact when he played for us did he!! Nice chap though, met him a few times.

Gary has only been manager a couple of weeks?
Thank you for your comment which is greatly appreciated. KRO!
The thing that worries me most at this time of the year is just how much have the players enjoyed Xmas. In previous years we have seen evidence of overindulgence. No doubt Chris Davies has emphasized the need for moderation. Let's hope that Burton have been drowning their sorrows
Thank you for your comment Frank. I’m sure Chris Davies will have the players well up for the game! KRO! :)
Cant go today unfortunately but cant be as bad as last Boxing Day... can it?!!
Thank you for your comment which is greatly appreciated. We were just talking about that! Last Boxing Day against Stoke was awful! KRO!
I think we might see more changes against Blackpool - maybe Jukey or Dykes will start that game as they caused the damage against them in the FA Cup.
Very good point Steve! Thanks for commenting mate, KRO :)
This has got a Birmingham 0-1 Burton written all over it. The usual Boxing Day surprise. I hope I am wrong
Good morning Grinch 🤣🤣 did you only get socks and lynx Africa for Christmas? 🤣🤣
Merry Christmas 🎅 🎄
