BCFC Accounts Analysis
Birmingham City’s newly published accounts show that the club requires £4.4million in working capital in the short term to continue to operate. With the club posting another loss and wages being dangerously close to 100% of turnover last season it could be said that the accounts paint a bleak picture for the club.

Up and down
One thing with relegation is it’s not something that’s new for Birmingham City. Indeed, we’ve been up and down so often we should be called the Vengaboys. Bouncing back from relegation is something we’ve become good at, and as Mr_Kwacky pointed out on twitter, it might be something worth looking at.

To buy or not to buy: that is the question
Yesterday I took the plunge and renewed my season ticket for the 2011/12 season. Blues have reported online that season ticket sales are good, and that the figures for renewals are above what they were at this point last season.

Celebrations
Well, it didn’t take long. Less than 72 hours after lifting the trophy, and once again the fans have something to complain about. After Blues announce plans for a civic reception at St Andrews on Sunday, many fans have remarked on their disappointment of the lack of traditional open top bus parade. I can certainly […]
