.. on Wednesday night is our only hope
Sad it is
Hi Dan,
Can you explain why it is so important to our owners to keep Birmingham City with regards to the Hong Kong Stock Market when they have other companies under their umbrella. I understand we owe the elusive Mr King approx 90 million but if he retains Birmingham City he is going to be continually shelling out loads of cash or is it a case of the other companies dont produce financial profits to remain on the stock market?
as well as a possible relegation, does anyone really trust these owners not to put us in Administration?
that must be the growing concern
especially given Wigan’s plight from the same region of the World curiously enough
Birmingham City lost for the fifth time in eight games at Deepdale
Just seen this stat come up on Gillette Saturday
That's appalling
Are we hoping for a Draw or Charlton win thus leaving Wigan unable to catch us provided that the EFL are true to their word and deduct Wigan 12 points.
That Scenario sees us safe before we KO.
Or would you prefer a Wigan win and hope that either we secure safety ourselves or leaving other teams to fail in getting the wins required to overhaul us.
Take your pick
If Wigan survive with the deduction, might they just drop their appeal anyway and save some money?
Bela sub, Pederson plays.
I fancied playing bela Crowley and Jude behind juke today but never mind come on you blues!

Wigan -12 can’t catch us now
Whoever loses out of Hull v Luton can’t catch us - a draw neither can
Barnsley can’t catch us.
Season probably starting 12th September needs to be finished by early May for Euro's. Winter Break to go, no FA Cup Replays, EFL cup will have to be rejigged, as European Football and Internationals need to still be played.
Strong squads and those that have a good bench will clearly benefit as it is pretty well going to be 2 games a week for the whole season.

It’s possible Luton & Wigan could win 2 games each. It’s possible Charlton win at Leeds who won’t care. So whilst the odds are in our favour it’s definitely not over. We’ve been here before haven’t we. Gotta get the job done today.
Don’t agree with that, I think if they had a good striker this season instead of just Bamford they’d have been promoted ages ago. Every game I’ve seen of them they create chance after chance.
International breaks are the best. Means blues have a rare defeat free fortnight.
Partied from full time til about 4am at the ground and then in town - thousands of them.
Not sure whether I think they’re irresponsible or I can’t blame them?
Will we have an avoiding relegation party in the Kop car park if we stay up today?
Stumbled across this. Another Old Trafford loss worth a look for a very good Peter Withe goal and a moment of complete madness from Archie Styles.
Last 4 minutes of video is the fall out from the latter. My memories of Archie are that he was basically a very average defender with none of him being a bad boy.
Anyone remember whether this was part of his game or was this a one off?
Going back to when I really got into Blues early 90s

I would say Wurzel. And I’d like to go on record as saying I was the first person ever to use the Wurzel nickname (on twitter) after which it was quickly stolen.
Can't remember exactly what or who it was I was listening to but Steve Cotterill's name came up on the radio the other day.
He was being used as the counter-point to someone who was saying that a young, new manager "didn't even have his coaching qualifications yet".
Apparently Steve Cotterill has more coaching qualifications than anyone else on the planet, has completed literally every course available, and yet as the pundit said "unfortunately he's Steve Cotterill."
My vote still goes to Harry Redknapp though. Читать дальше...
I moved away in the late 80's to work in restaurants in Europe, I came back for a couple of seasons but finally left in 1993 for the USA.
I used to collect programmes, records and all kinds of stuff. For example some of the things I had was a picture cover of a small band called The High Numbers who released a double A sided single, 'I'm the Face' and 'Zoot Suit' if my memory serves. They later changed their name to The Who.
I had one football programme, well it was just a sheet of printed... Читать дальше...
POTS - Bellingham
GOTS - Colin
Just a thought, that if you believe popular concensus it appears that the misdemeanours by Sheffield Wednesday were more serious than ours for which we got a 9 point deduction.
As no decision has been made yet or at least no result known if Wednesday even got the same as us it would put them on 47 points.
Is it feasible that Sheffield Wednesdat could get relegated after the season has finished.

In a way, thid they do the same for us?
I dunno mate. I haven’t a clue what the comparable timescales were to hearing, and then from hearing to verdict.
