    So a player called Mings stamps on someone's head and get a five mattch ban. A player called Rojo stamps on someone's head and no action is taken.

    Can any one guess who the Manchester United player is?

    I am now wondering how much longer the board will tolerate Mr Hughes. QPR fans did warn Stokies about his ability, or lack of.

    Saido Berahino no goals in 8 games, he makes Bony seem prolific.

    I doubt Berahino will ever return to his former form. Ever since his move to Spurs fell through, he was never the same player. Much like Peter Odemwinge who now plays for Madura United in Indonesia after his move to QPR fell through. Too good players with great potential ruined by WBA.

    Sadly I think you are right, Hughes staked his reputation on Berahino, I fear it will be his undoing.

    I've decided that next season I'm going to start a Championship thread, providing Zola doesn't get us relegated! Then at least me and zoogiraffe can have some relevance!;) :p

    I know it isn't really Premier League news but I do believe that we have a renewed chance of staying up! 'Arry could be this seasons biggest saviour.

    Looking forward to Saturday @zoogiraffe?

    I'm sure anything's better than Zola! But Arry's a great manager and I hope him all the best at Birmingham. Birmingham will go up next year- you heard it hear first- from a Spurs fan (p.s: sorry we got you relegated :p )

    You are right, it is on Sunday!:oops:

    Anyway it's going to be interesting as I was expecting to be buried with Zola in charge, now I'm slightly more optimistic.

    And it's hard to ignore the derby when you live in Birmingham as half of the city are at the other halves throats!;)

    Does a side which goes to places such as Burnley, Leicester and Swansea, and does not score a goal really deserve a place in the Premier League? I hope Mr Hughes is thinking about the question, but I think in reality he does not give a s**t.

    And, who agrees with me that the signing of Saido Berahino is the worst Premier League transfer ever?

    What about Vlad Chiriches, Paulinho, Robert Soldado, Fazio and Sissoko?

    Rob, you should feel sorry for me. We have to play at Wembley for a whole season next year.

    That is not fair, should you reach the cup final you will be at home.

    Well how our season has gone I'm just glad it was only one goal. A draw would have been nice though.
    Just gotta give 'Array some time to restore order! :)
