Birmingham City fans fume after Nottingham Forest loss as Lyle Taylor demand made

Birmingham City fans have shared their frustrations over the loss against Nottingham Forest.

Forest came out as 2-0 winners over the Blues on Saturday afternoon thanks to goals either side of halftime from Keinan Davis and Scott McKenna. The three points move the Reds up to third place in the Championship table as hopes over a potential challenge for an automatic promotion place at the end of the season is rising.

It’s a different story for this afternoon’s opposition with the result leaving Lee Bowyer’s men in 18th position in the table. The Blues have won just one game in their last five league outings.

And it seems that the result is the final straw for some fans on social media. After the full time whistle, they made their feelings known.

There was one point that a fan made though with a permanent move for on-loan Forest striker Lyle Taylor eyed. The forward was ineligible to face his parent club this afternoon.

Here’s what just some Birmingham fans had to say about the result and performance at the City Ground.

Woods : "I don't understand this Bowyer fella sometimes."

AndyBav : "Thanks Bowyer for your work. Best of luck for your future, bye."

Shan : "The least they can do is let us keep Lyle Taylor now."

Tom Richman : "Thank god there’s teams in this league worse than we are, which takes some doing."

Thomas : "Still 18th though."

BCFC1996Fan : "Wait, we lost?!"

MortiVator : "Time to go."

W1LKO : "Shock."

Barry : "Did anyone seriously expect us to get anything other beaten, today?"

Beaublue: "We will lost the last six games."

Max Bradley : "Yet 3 and a half thousand will be at Blackpool next week. We're a bit mental aren't we? Suckers for pain."

Dean Richardson : "If Bowyer doesn't play 4-3-3 or try something different in the last few games, what's the point? Get someone new in."

Jacko : "Surprised with how conservative/cautious we were in our selection Bela & Graham should have started imo with Deeney Hogan had no support Woods instead of Sunjic too."
