Hopefully, tonights comeback will put our season back on track. 10 days now to get some of our troops back. Our injury crisis is certainly clearing slowly.
Yacob returned today and although he went off injured in the first half, it's not thought to be anything serious. Brunt's late forced departure was also just cramp, rather than the expected hamstring pull.
So injured players expected to return for next game are Shane Long, Steven Reid, Claudio Yacob and Marc Antoine Fortune which will give us some more/better options.
Only Mulumbu who is in Africa and Gera, out for the season, will then be missing.
Tough 3 games coming up though.
Everton A
Spurs H
Liverpool A
4 points would be a brilliant return and although I'm not expecting much from the 3 games.... slowly getting our players back and hopefully some confidence after tonight....we'll have a good end to the season.
Next 3...

You and Norwich are in freefall, couldn't even beat us at home! Bearing in mind Wigan beat us 3-0 away, I'm afraid to say thats relegation scrap form lads.
PS, last two games, two draws. On the away goals rule that makes us the best team in the Midlands.
---------------------------------------------------------------------------
Unfortunately, Paddy, it's your goals against and 20 points from 23 games which actually makes you the worst Midlands team in the PL. Was it 15 conceded over Christmas? That's why we applaud after 8 minutes - to commemorate your 8-0 pasting at Chelsea. You were lucky to get a draw at both Villa Park and The Hawthorns. And I've never seen so boring a manager give Press conferences after games. Mr Excitement, your Paul Lambert. Is he permanently on depressants? He's very close to getting the sack.

I suspect 8th or 9th will be reasonable to expect.
No higher, just not good enough i'm afraid.

not really Uncle Herbert, hovering over the championship relegation places with 2 points from 7 games
