Birmingham City threw away a two goal lead to lose 4-2 at home to Coventry City on Good Friday.
Headers from Marc Roberts and Gary Gardner put the Blues in front before Ben Sheaf bagged his first two goals for the visitors and leveled things up before the break.
A free header from Michael Rose (from yep, a corner), midway through the second period completed the comeback for the Sky Blues before Callum O’Hare added the icing on the cake following more absolutely comical defending from a Birmingham perspective.
All six goals were avoidable, all six goals were pretty schoolboy, in truth.
Here’s our player ratings from a game that neither defence will want to watch back in a hurry.

1. Zach Jeacock - 4
A real rough day for the young lad who was glued to his line for set-pieces and flapped badly for the fourth. Wipe it under the carpet and go again.

2. Marc Roberts - 6
An assist to his name but not the best at the back though can’t be blamed for some of the shocking goals.
3. Nico Gordon - 6
Had a decent game but was brought off with a knock. Let’s hope for the young lad it isn’t too serious.
4. Kristian Pedersen - 6.5
Good header from Peds for his goal but missed a glorious chance to make it 3-3 in the second half.
