BIRMINGHAM CITY

They always think they are a big club, and tonight they had attendance of just 15,000. This is a club that were in the premier league two years ago, shocking. Even last season when they were going for promotion their stadium always looked empty. There is only one big club in that city and its Aston Villa. In my opinion Wolves are still a bigger club than West Brom even if they are in the premier (a bit like us and the Jacks) :ayatollah:

Birmingham City are a proper football club. Big club, medium club, whatever. For what it's worth, I have got 100% respect for them. Looking forward to New Year's Day :ayatollah:

I have a real soft spot for the Brummies due to a good mate of mine. Blues are very like Ccfc in terms of the type of fan that they have and their history.

I cant see how they can think Villa are their rivals when they are getting crowds of 15,000. Wolves and WBA are bigger clubs. They thought they were a big club when they signed Dugarry and had sell out crowds going back 6-7 years ago.

Why do people seem to think having bigger crowds mean you're a bigger club? It's not just support, it's the stadia, history and where you are in the league. I see brum as a big club. I see weeds as a big club.

er because they are 3miles away thats why villa are our rivals.if any club had the troubles we had they would take a hit in crowd figures.we sold a whole team last year.add the fact that some of the prem lovers have left as well i,m not surprised the gates are down.on sky and hit and miss form.wolves gates are down too.villa had very poor crowds last year.the figures were less than stated.counting up s/t holders who didn,t attend.bit like what you do.it,s not so long ago players were choosing blues over villa has we allegedly paid more :shock: as it,s been stated ccfc and bcfc have similar fan bases.that,s why there is respect between the fans.ask some of the older heads ;)

Hope it works out for you lot. Ideally it would be a blues supporting person. I'd love to have local owners. Can't be bothered to go today partly due to family stuff but i could rearrange if i wanted too. A few years ago I'd have been there. Not sure if it is rebrand or whether other things over past year (mrs in and out of hospital, eldest lad ill etc) have made me realise that football is not be all and end all.
