CAPTAIN – Michael Morrison struggled to get into the Charlton side. Blues obtain his services, make him captain and he has been a revelation. Charlton must regret letting him go. They have conceded 34 goals more than Blues.

HOME – After Charlton, Blues have four home games from their next five. That represents a massive opportunity to try and build up some momentum and with it, points.

AWAY – Blues` recent goal tally away from home is as dry as Gandhi`s flip flop. With no goal in five on the road, could Rowett change the system slightly?

RELEGATION – The Addicks are in serious danger of the drop to League One. Six ponts separate them from safety.

LAFFERTY – Blues` new loanee has suffered an injury playing for Northern Ireland. Will we ever see him in a royal blue shirt?

THREE – The formation in the first half against Wolves didn`t work. So why revert back to it against Fulham? Rowett should stick to the tried and trusted 4-2-3-1 or be brave and try a second striker in a 4-4-2.

OTABOR – I`ve banged on this drum for a fair while now. Gary Rowett says he wants to utilise the squad. Viv Solomon-Otabor would benefit from some game time.

NOTHING TO LOSE – This season has been one of progression regardless of the outcome. Blues players have given their all and deserve all the praise they get. Let`s hope for one last hurrah and the lottery of a play-off showdown, nevertheless.
