I'm still really annoyed about last night, but after sleeping on it I feel I need to retract my 'shower of shite' comment about Reading- not fair and they have some good players, particularly considering the average age of their squad. They do look like a team that any good side with ambitions...

You've played the least amount of away games, along with us and Stevenage (16). So after Tuesday Birmingham will have played less away games that anyone else in the division.

Agents Cartwright, Jake Edwards and Kev Russell doing the business for their former club.
