After back-to-back away defeats, Neil Moxley and Colin Tattum are back to ask the tough questions. This episode is a full breakdown of the disappointing performance against Stoke City, which has served as a "reality check" for a Blues side adjusting to life back in the Championship.

Plus, a look ahead to a tough fixture against an in-form Swansea City at St. Andrew's.
