After a 15-week hiatus, Blues finally return to playing tomorrow as they face West Brom at the Hawthorns. Although there hasn’t been any action on the pitch during the break, there has been plenty off it. Following the announcement that Blues will be looking for their fifth manager in 3 years, due to once again […]

On Wednesday, Blues announced the signing of French attacker Jérémie Bela on a free transfer. The Frenchman signed a three year contract and could make his debut on Saturday at home to Fulham.

We can’t be the only ones who are a little scared by Blues right now. We’re passing the ball around nicely, taking shots, we have some good young players and we’re winning at home. Something is clearly about to go wrong. However, we have to enjoy it while we can, and if England can outperform […]

Blues come into the Luton game off the back of two consecutive home victories and sitting three points off the playoffs, which is a nice position to be in. Maxime Colin’s first goal for well over a year was enough to see off Blackburn, as he put the finishing touches on an excellent Blues move. […]

Though Blues lost on Saturday, it’s not all doom and gloom. A narrow loss to one of the best sides in the division away from home is gutting, but to be expected. Now, though, Blues face the test of a winnable home game just a few days after. With some tired legs, they’ll need to […]

The timing of the international break could not possibly have been worse for Blues. While we got to bathe in the glow of a last minute winner for an extra week, all the momentum from it was immediately lost as we got to watch England struggle to a loss against Czech Republic. Great. Enough about […]

Blues women lost 3-0 away to Manchester City on Saturday and the scoreline was arguably favourable to the visitors as young goalkeeper Hannah Hampton made a number of saves to prevent the home side running up the score any further. Nick Cushing’s side were in control from the first minute to the last due to […]

Whoever thought this game would be a good one for TV is at best, ambitious, at worst, a sado-masochist. Blues have been dire to watch for large stretches of this season, and Middlesbrough aren’t exactly Barcelona either. This was never more obvious than against Wigan in mid-week, a game where both teams blatantly lacked quality […]

There’s never a dull moment following Blues. A stellar comeback saw Blues go from 0-2 down to 2-2, but a missed penalty and some non-existent defending left Blues fans reeling at the final whistle. Quite why a player who only scores with his head was on penalty duty, we’re not sure, but at least next […]

Ah, Blues. Just as we got our hopes up, you went and screwed it up. A depressing home loss to Preston – not necessarily the result, but the manner of it – don’t have Blues fans too excited with the prospect of Derby away. Pep Clotet has pressure on him to find a winning line-up, […]

Blues are sitting pretty in the top half of the table – a far cry from where many of us expected. Back to back winners from teenage sensation Jude Bellingham have Blues fans riding a wave and with another home game to come, the feeling could go through the roof, or back down to Earth. […]

Blues took down Stoke at St. Andrews last time out with wunderkind Jude Bellingham bagging his first Blues goal to win it. It was an uninspiring victory, but a victory nonetheless – and realistically, Blues fans should be pretty used to uninspiring by now. There were flashes of what Blues fans want to see – […]

Blues were frustrated in their opening game of the 2019/20 season as they were beaten 1-0 at home to Everton. Despite dominating possession and spending most of the game camped in Everton’s half, Blues were unable to create any clear cut chances while the visitors generated shots through counter attacks and set pieces. Blues full […]

For the second year in a row Blues Women begin their season with a home game against Everton, but there will not be much familiarity with that match-up from last season given the dramatic turnover of Blues’ playing staff since then. From the starting 11 that day, only Kerys Harrop and Lucy Staniforth remain with […]

Just a few years ago, Stoke were a Premier League side – but now, they find themselves at the foot of the Championship table. Blues, on the other hand, sit in mid-table, despite a whole lot of doom and gloom. Some extremely poor away results have clouded an otherwise decent start from Pep Clotet, and […]

Following the chaos of Blues’ summer, sitting pretty on seven points from four games wasn’t the expected result. However, that is where Pep Clotet has led Blues so far after an impressive win against Barnsley – okay, only Barnsley, but Blues restricted them to basically nothing in front of goal. New boy Alvaro Gimenez chipped […]

Blues went away to Forest and were handed their first defeat of the season, and it wasn’t a pretty one. Joe Lolley continued his obscene scoring spree against Blues and former Blues target Lewis Grabban also bagged in a 0-3 loss – but there is little time to mull over defeats and instead move onto […]

Unbeaten Blues head away to Nottingham Forest for another tough fixture at the start of this 2019/20 season.
