Directorial changes and loans – BIH and Yang Yuezhou
News broke last night of two announcements made by BIH – a new loan from Yang Yuezhou, and the appointment of three directors. This is good news despite the loan being a high interest rate – as I will explain below.

NK Maribor Day Trip
From reading the various messageboards, it seems obvious that the most difficult game for Blues fans to get to is NK Maribor, on the 29th September. With flights to Graz, Vienna and even Zagreb being snapped up, it’s getting increasingly harder to get to the Slovene club and for many, the price is prohibitive.

The Prodigal Carson
News broke today that Carson is to be allowed to travel to the UK for a period of four days next month, after he pleaded not guilty to five counts of money laundering. His pre-trial date has been set as December 7, and the courts will set the date of his trial then. I thought I’d try and get down some thoughts on the whole thing now as I’ve already had a few emails asking for my comments.

Looking forwards to the week ahead
After a hectic few weeks of European games, transfer intrigue and rumour, things promise to die down a bit this week. I suspect it’s going to be a bit busy in the next forty eight hours as Blues finally (hopefully) sort out the sales of Scott Dann, Cameron Jerome and Nikola Zigic; and even more hopefully bring in a couple of bodies to help rebuild the squad.

Back to life, back to reality – Watford preview
It’s back to life, back to reality today as Blues travel to Vicarage Road to face Watford in the Championship. With being a couple of games behind, Blues have slipped to 21st in the division and Blues need to target points against a Watford side who haven’t scored in the league since the opening day of the season.

Polishing Diamonds
It’s been a good end to the week hasn’t it? Not only a win against European opponents, a good performance from the team and a new Blues legend is born. Well, maybe it’s a bit too early to be throwing around the “L” word, but with performances like that it’s going to be hard to keep Redmond’s ability secret.

Off to Partizan – The Europa League Group Stage Draw
After last night’s magnificent win over CD Nacional of Portugal, I’m guessing most blues fans who were able were watching or listening to the Europa League draw in Monaco today. As you may well know, Blues have drawn SC Braga of Portugal, Club Brugge of Belgium and NK Maribor of Slovenia as their opponents in the Group stages of the Europa League.

Who is Vico Hui?
One of the things I’ve striven to with this blog is to try and find out about the owners of Birmingham City, to provide a bit of transparency and to give people an idea of just who is who. One person I’ve not really focused on is the chairman of BCFC (and CEO of BIHL), Vico Hui.
