    Terrible terrible Birmingham

    Up to third as it stands.

    Yes it’s early, yes it will change but they aren’t the rubbish some people want to make out because we played well.

    Watford pegged them back for a draw.
    Brum were awful Saturday and I fully expect them to struggle this season.
    Bluebirds still in 5th despite all these games tonight.

    Birmingham City should be at least a play off side in this division

    Daveys on the road again on you tube or whatever it is can be amusing but most of their fans seem like fat pensioners in Union jack shorts

    Maybe I should have said given the potential support they have they SHOULD be a far better side

    Why don’t we just give promotions based on attendance?

    Why would you want to do that ? That's silly

    Although generally bigger clubs with bigger crowds in bigger cities with better facilities to attract better players tend to prosper 😉

    Sad to say our strikers couldn't hit the proverbial barn door even though the rest of the team are excellent surpassing expectations.

    Southampton? Same population as Cardiff without the external support to back it up, with Pompey close to hand.

    Southampton is much smaller than Cardiff and I’d argue they are a bigger club

    The population of Wigan is not 321 k lol 😆

    The population of the town of Wigan is about 80000

    The population of the administrative area is 321 k

    It's a tiny place

    The population of Barry is not 140 k ......the population of the Vale of glamorgan ....the population of Barry is about 50 k

    Southampton urban area approx 900000
    Cardiff Urban Area ........................450000

    This support to back it up arguement simply doesn't hold water . Most major cities in the UK will have an extended hinterland . The problem is getting them , and the locals , to turn up .

    No it isn't. It's a bit smaller than Cardiff but has a bigger metropolitan population who , if they weren't poncing about on boats , would be saints fans .
