are you going to keep banging the same drum vish, it gets boring after a while.
Progression cant be judged on cup runs because they are not consistent and we will not win them every year. Winning the League Cup is also not comparable to winning the Champions League for example as the bigger teams don't take it 100% seriously. It was great to win it but not winning it the next season is not a sign of regression.
you can accurately judge progression through the league because you are playing the same teams, bar relegation and promotion teams, every year.
Being in 2 finals, beting the best clubs in the country was not boring at all for me. You just have a different standard, and you are also boring saying that you see progress all the time. The only progress I see is over our abysmal start of the season, and if there was no progress on that, we would be in relegation zone right now. Just one question, did you watch the cup finals last season?

When Birmingham won the league cup but got relegated do you think there season was a successful one? You wanted to keep Kenny and thats fair enough but he failed last season so get over it. If BR gets the bullet at the end of the season, so be it. I'll move on. There is already progress on last seasons league form but dont let facts get in the way.

Correction. I wanted KD replaced by someone who has proven that he is much better, not a mid-table manager whose biggest acheivement is to finish in the... mid table. I had my doubts at the beginning and unfortunately I am not surprised with our performance of the season so far. Now, you seem to be very happy with our situation, that's great and I am happy for you. You like mediocre situations as long as it is BR, I don't.

Managers have to start somewhere. The skill is being able to adjust and adapt. BR has shown that he sees failings and makes adjustments. I think he is far less stubborn than some of the previous managers, and will probably learn from his mistakes.
I will judge him with how his signings progress. With Allen and Borini he got in people (at a cost) that he believed he can trust. The next stage is to strengthen the weaker areas, and bring in higher quality. So for now I will sit on the fence, as I cannot judge a man for something he has not yet done.

I said in the last post that if he gets the bullet so be it. I think that he is the right man for the job but if he goes I will support the new man and not keep looking at the past.

Absolutely not, and he took us to 2 Cup Finals, 1 of which we won.
So what is your view on BR who has overseen a season that has ended in february.
