Let our opposition in the Championship waste their money on old names we've all heard of, but with no resale value. I'd much rather we stick with bringing in younger, hungrier players most of us won't yet have heard of. I do however appreciate it doesn't make this kind of thread much fun, where...

The Championship is a whole different ball game than League 1. From what I've seen we are far better suited to the football needed there than Rotherham. Yes they have more experience, but that experience involves struggling and getting relegated. They are a team full of giants, who like to use...

He's been their best player by a country mile. £3m for Curtis doesn't seem ridiculous to me. If they did sell him I don't think they would get far off that figure.

I've watched a few Championship games since the resumption to get an idea of what to expect next season. Before this I was of the view that finishing 21st in our first season back would be a success. However given that we ought to comfortably be better than Rotherham and Oxford/ Wycombe that...

Froggatt played left midfield for us. There was talk about him playing a wing back roll, but I can't recall any game where he actually played it for us. Not sure if he ever played there for Villa or Wolves before he joined us though.

One of my best friends is a Notts County fan. Say's Turner is a class above their level, but unfortunately still injury prone. Shame for him but that is not going to change at this point in his career, so I wouldn't expect him to play higher than League 2 from hereon.

I can't remember exactly - but I bet when we first signed Yakubu there would have been a few on here convinced that he would fire us to safety :)

Not disputing he is clearly a tremendous prospect, but you really are exaggerating the point to say he has run riot in the Championship this season. Mind you those 4 goals he has scored could be what keeps Birmingham up this season.

Roger Van Gool would be a good for for the right wing slot. Tore Forest apart in the European Cup at the City Ground, but then did nothing for us.

Quite disappointing that these are the 3 options. I thought previously that the 2 Tone link was an excellent idea, and I also liked the Mount Rushmore flag linking Robins to Hill, Curtis & Sillett. Therefore none of the above for me too - you may as well just do whatever you want to do to be honest.

Was Henderson ever really that good though! His best was nowhere near that of Bob Latchford or Dean Holdsworth.

Been doing some digging and it looks like SkyBlueUltra was on West Terrace messageboard. Didn't go on there myself, but I was aware of his work through the rivals network, and this particular match preview when we played Portsmouth some time back: I licks Pumpy fans. At thirst i thinkings them...

Peter Ramage started out as a right back I believe. Andy Impey could fit in there too. Goram seems a bit harsh, I don't recall him being that bad. For those with long memories Raddy Avramovic must be worth a shout. Would probably get in any Notts County all time XI, but wasn't quite so good for...

Going way back Terry Yorath joined from 'Dirty' Leeds who everyone hated, but he was a top signing.

I seem to remember it constituted Birmingham's main attacking threat for much of the replayed cup tie earlier this season. It's not a tactic I like to see overused, but it does have its place at certain moments in a game. McCallum had a decent long throw, but he's gone now. Charlie Goode at...

So you were Rob87? Of course you were, the similarities are obvious. No grey areas for you, with everything black or white. You reacted defensively to any criticism of the club the same way you have in the matchday links this season. That's an observation by the way, not a criticism! Wasn't it...

I would rather sign JCH!! Unless we are going for James Maddison or Calum Wilson can we please stop with the ex player links?

If that were to happen at the start of next season where ifollow was the club's only source of match day income, it would be imperative to grass up any FB group or other, that share the stream beyond the reach of an individual household.

I WARNED EVERYBODY Hopefully works! If this guy is right about what has happened, it is absolutely outrageous!!

Portsmouth fans to this day still wax lyrical about Sky Blue Ultra, and always hope for his re-appearance whenever we play them. Don't think he was GMK, so probably LAST I guess.
