‘Lee Clark’s bingo machine is back’ – These Birmingham fans discuss XI v Bournemouth

Birmingham City host AFC Bournemouth this afternoon in the Sky Bet Championship as they look to get a win under their belts after losing last time out.

Aitor Karanka’s men suffered a 2-1 reversal at home to Wycombe Wanderers in the week and it was a result that has rathered summed up their season so far.

Three wins, four draws and three losses means it’s been a steady at best start for the Blues and with them 14th in the table they’ll be eager to kick on this afternoon.

Indeed, they’re only four points off of the play-off places at this stage, owing to the innately tight nature of the second tier, and beating a side like Bournemouth who have started pretty well this year would certainly be an obvious boost.

Aitor Karanka has named his side ahead of this one, then, and here we’re taking a look at how Blues fans have responded to the XI…

I think its fair to say they've found Lee Clark's old bingo machine in a cupboard somewhere.

Kieftenbeld out of nowhere… Davis on the bench. A start for Boyd-Munce. Madness.
