Steve Bruce knew it was going to be hard when he led Birmingham City to promotion from the Nationwide League last season. Brummie rivals West Bromwich Albion may be bigger favourites to go straight back down, but certainly Birmingham City are among the clubs expected to fight a year long battle against the drop. The gulf between the ...  Read the complete review

For gods sake Blues....even West Brom can get promoted! - Advantages: The true Birmingham club , Great fans, Funded by porn - Disadvantages: Always fall at the final hurdle, St Andrews

First an apology, this opinion will not simply be about Birmingham City Football club, more about a new proposed system that could rearrange the football league as we know it. The new program goes by the name of the Phoenix league, Birmingham are apparently going to one of the forerunners for the new league, and I have some rather strong feelings ...  Read the complete review

Nowhere at present. I have supported Birmingham City all my life and find the recent events very depressing. Out of all the clubs in Division one Birmingham deserve to be in the Premiership more than any other. Unfortunatley I cannot see this happening this season and unless we improve in every area it won't happen for a while. Some ...  Read the complete review

SATERDAY 29th DECEMBER: Will we get to the premier league next season? A question thats been rideing upon all blue noses for season upon season! Birmingham City FC have now managed the get to the playoffs (places 3-6 in the 1st division) for the last 3 years running. Twice, they have lost on a penalty shootout with Chris Holland missing the ...  Read the complete review

After the farcical scenes that accompanied the Division 1 play-off semi-final on Thursday night, I'd like to express my amazement at the antics of the Birmingham City manager, Trevor Francis. Upset that the penalty kicks were going to be taken at the Preston fans end, he almost led his team off the field in protest, before allowing them to go ...  Read the complete review

There have been many 1st Division and 2nd Division clubs that have had lots of media focus this season. Palace, Wycombe, Fulham and Tranmere are just a few. Birmingham City however are at the top of the tree after their recent Worthington Cup final appearance at the Millenium stadium against Liverpool. Birminham City are one of the true ...  Read the complete review

Birmingham has had storming season this year, and in my view are one of the prime candidates for promotion to the premiership through either the playoff competition or the automatic promotion placing. They stand in the top 5 at the moment due to an incredibly successful season full of top results for the ‘black country’ club. Maybe one ...  Read the complete review

What a great triumph for Trevor Francis to knock out Premiership side Ipswich and go into the Worthington Cup Final against Liverpool. All this after his chairman warned that if he didn’t make the play-offs he would be sacked. I, personally think that the Chairman is asking to much, the ground is ok and they have good support, but I ...  Read the complete review

Yet another important season for Trevor Francis. How often is that said? Surely this is his last chance at promotion after four years at St Andrews, the last two of which have ended just one step from Wembley in the play-offs. Francis, the best forward in the club's history, has not been able to find one good enough to match even the ...  Read the complete review

birmingham are arguably the most popular side in Birmingham - but they are also the most unlucky - with aston Villa as neighbours - it would be a great thing for the Black Country side to have an old firm derby against the Villa. It seems that Birm'ham can never get promoted despite always finishing in the top 8 - a good achievement but they ...  Read the complete review

I, feel sorry for Trevor Francis because can he really go any further with Birmingham City. He has made them into a play-off team, which is well for a club of that statue. Can you really imagine Birmingham in the premiership.....I know anything is imaginable but they just don't seem to be a class side.. They have one player I rate ...  Read the complete review

I, think Birmingham are rubbish. They have had an excellent chance in the last few seasons to get promoted, but have wasted it. Selling his front-line or sending them on laon was a stupid thing to do, especially when Geoff Horsfiled is out with a broken leg. I, think Trevor Francis should give up his sky job and concentrate on his ...  Read the complete review

Trevor Francis, England's first £1M footballer, has had a rocky start to football management. Now at Birmingham City, he has found it difficult to give the Blues fans what they want - a return to Premiership fooball. The team can count themselves unlucky after numerous injury problems last season, to the extent that they were barely ...  Read the complete review

I have been a blues fan since about the age of 12 and have followed them with an intense passion, through the good and bad times. I cant quite explain where my love for Birmingham City Football Club come's from and could never put into words how much I long for there success but hey lets be realistic, if you make the effort to come to ...  Read the complete review
