Blues’ window of opportunity

I THINK if anyone told Paul Jewell that lightning doesn’t strike the same place twice, they should stand well back or face the prospect of a fat lip.

He must have been as sick as the proverbial parrot when Robben’s shot crept inside the post in the dying seconds of the game. Last season when Crespo’s last minute goal bulged the net, it was a harsh but valuable lesson to the new boys of the Premiership; but for it to happen again, especially after having fought back from 2-0 down, does seem cruel in the extreme.

I know I sound like a broken record, but after we scored the two goals we were bloody awful. We didn’t deserve to win, but that’s football and I must admit my first thought was all those reds cursing “blue Father Christmas” as the points gap returned to just two.
