I'm not sure it is the case really, it's just a way of the actual owners raising the profile

Blues are a decent club in a big city that have been unlucky with owners over the years. Hope this moves the dial for them.

Why? Their fans are, on the whole, a bunch of massive bellends.

Are the Blues sympathisers replacing the Wasps sympathisers on here? They're a bunch of dickheads.

Sent out some half and half scarves and a nice little hamper to their Coventry supporters club by the looks of it.

I guess I have a few family members who support them. They let us play as St Andrews when we needed to as well and our clubs have never had any particular beef like Aston Villa and the random rivalry with Leicester for a while.

Cool, the fact the charged us the market rate for leasing their ground makes up for the fact that on multiple occasions they have tried to jump up and down on any city fans head they can find

That isn't every BCFC fan though is it...... its like us getting the hump with Sunderland claiming that we're a city of total wankers due to an event in 1977 which we have no control over, and a few people throwing shit/piss around (which probably didn't actually happen)

When Gold and Sullivan took over, I hated the sleeping giant narrative.

They're the same size as us, at best.

Birmingham fans have well and truly lost their heads.

Talking about a 60k stadium at the NEC haha! They couldn't sell out 17k last season ffs!

Our support considering our catchment area is disappointing but theirs is one of the worst in the country.

They like to think of themselves as the proper Birmingham club and can't sell 17k.

They love to think themselves as a 'proper' club and yet are loving their new franchise.

Never forget when they attacked a bloke who was with his daughter before/after the FA Cup game in 2020 from behind - proper knuckle dragging dickhead fanbase

I’d rather see The Villa win something than them every day of the week

Brum despite having a much larger catchment area than us and us having played seasons under boycotts in other cities have only averaged about 2k more fans than us in their history

sleeping giant though

I know some having lived in Tamworth and they are sound enough but they massively look down their nose at us when, as someone has said they aren’t really any bigger than us and I think most football supporters of any persuasion would be hard to disagree with that statement

Blues fan at work is talking about Champions League football in 3 years

And I don't mean in a best case scenario, talking like it's guaranteed.

Another way to look at it is in my living memory, Blues have never been a regular top flight team (whereas we were for a large chunk), yet they still have an average crowd above us.
