If you had told me a few months ago that Blues were going into the final game of the season with nothing to play for, then I would have assumed we'd had already been relegated.

It has been a turbulent week in football and for once, Blues haven't been involved. Instead, Bowyer's men have been looking towards tonight game against Nottingham Forest.

In what is a pivotal match at the bottom end of the Championship, Blues face Rotherham at The New York Stadium. In what is a real “6 pointer” a win for Blues would almost confirm safety from relegation, with four games remaining. However, a Rotherham win would leave the Blues 3 points from the drop, […]

Blues face Stoke City later today, hoping to make it 3 wins on the bounce at home. This is despite a pretty awful home record prior to Bowyer’s arrival, winning just 3 of the previous 18 home matches. If Bowyer can match our home wins under Karanka in just 3 games, it will be a […]

Blues play 3rd place Brentford this evening, hoping to damage another teams hopes of promotion from the championship. It is Lee Bowyer’s 4th game in charge, with all four coming against teams in the top 6. A massive win on Friday against Swansea City meant that the team have taken 6 points out of a […]

After a break from club football due to the international break, yawn, Blues face promotion chasing Swansea at 8PM tonight. It will be Bowyer’s 3rd game in charge, with one win and one loss against Reading and Watford respectively. The international break has given Bowyer the first real opportunity to work with his squad, having […]

It feels weird writing a preview feeling somewhat positive towards a game. Yet, after a stellar performance by Blues in Lee Bowyer’s first game in charge, I actually think we could get a result. What Bowyer did was simple really, he made Blues play to their strengths, and the player’s responded by giving it their […]

After a turbulent, few days at Blues off the field, it was now time to turn our attention to things that are happening on it. It was the start of the ‘Bowyer Era’ and it couldn’t be a much more difficult task if they tried. Reading find themselves 5th in the table and on the […]

The last time I wrote a match preview, the final game of last season, Blues were looking nervously below them, hoping that 50 points would be enough to secure safety from relegation to League One. Frankly, if you told me 8 months later we would be in a situation just as worrying, despite a new […]

The 27th of February is a date that all Blues will hold dear to their heart for the rest of their lives. 10 years on from THAT day and it couldn’t be more different, instead of lifting a major honour, Blues were looking to try and kick-start a run to pull themselves clear from dropping […]

After a huge win on the weekend away at Hillsborough, Blues welcomed league leaders Norwich City to St. Andrews, where they were looking for their 2nd win at the stadium in a week – which would match the amount of wins Blues have in their own stadium this season. No pressure Blues. For me this […]

This one was labelled as a “must win” and it didn’t need much reading as to why that was the case. Blues found themselves level on points with their opponents today, despite Wednesday having a points deduction at the start of the season (albeit reduced after an appeal). After losing 3 on the spin the […]

After back to back draws against Coventry and Wycombe (2 games you ideally want to be picking up 2 wins in) Blues had the task of travelling to a Bournemouth side who have lost 4 on the bounce and recently parted ways with Jason Tindall. The new manager effect couldn’t come at a worse time […]

Has someone made the landlord vs tenants joke yet? You know that funny joke they said when we first played Coventry in the cup last season. Well, it’s time for them all to return as Blues found themselves as the home team this time around (sigh). Blues were looking for their first home win since […]

Well, we’ve reached the half-way mark (just over, but let’s no be pedantic) of another ‘breathtaking’ Birmingham City season. I don’t know about anyone else, but this one seems to have dragged along at a pace Adam Clayton would be proud of – perhaps that’s because Blues providing a glimmer of hope throughout these difficult […]

After a spirited and complete team performance on the weekend, Blues had a very short turn around to get themselves ready for their next test. This time it was Preston at Home – a team I always find to be a bogey one and never have any fond memories of. However, Blues had the opportunity […]

Back to league action and this time Blues had the chance to ruin everyone’s weekend a bit earlier than usual, thanks to Sky deciding (for some reason) to broadcast this absolute blockbuster of a match. It was a short turn around from the last time we played Boro and the horror show from that afternoon […]

For the third time in four seasons, Blues go into their last game of the season today with safety from relegation from the Championship not confirmed. Blues are just two points ahead of 22nd place Luton Town, who face a Blackburn Rovers team with nothing to play for. Blues’ Championship status for next season is […]

Blues head into their penultimate Championship game today against Preston knowing securing a point will confirm safety from relegation. A point would leave Blues on 51 points, three clear off the dropzone should Hull or Luton (who both have vastly inferior goal differences) win. A injury time equaliser by Lukas Jutkiewicz earned Blues a big […]

Blues go into this evenings match with Charlton Athletic with the knowledge that a win will assure Championship survival thanks in large part to Hull City’s dramatic implosion at Wigan and Luton being held to a draw by QPR last night. With no news of an incoming permanent manager, other than fluctuations in the bookmakers […]

After a winless streak since the restart, Pep Clotet has this evening left his role as Birmingham City head coach tonight. This comes after a 3-1 defeat at home to Swansea, the fourth home game in a row that Blues had conceded three goals. The Spaniard had already announced that he was leaving at the […]

After Blues conceded a last minute goal in their 1-0 loss to high flying Fulham at the weekend, the team are now winless in 9. With five games remaining Blues are not completely safe form relegation just yet, with a four point gap to Hull in 23rd place. However, with Wigan losing 3-0 to Brentford […]
