As I've said before, I promise not to mention footie too much on this 'ere blog. However, since my team (Birmingham City - 'the Blues') got relegated from the Premier League last season I've said nothing. So here's a tiny update, although I guarantee that no-one, other than me, is interested. Anyway, last season we were playing teams such as Chelsea, Manchester United, Arsenal and er ... Charlton. This season we get to play teams like Barnsley, Plymouth, Southend and er ... Hull. Despite the slightly less-than glamorous nature of the fixtures in the 'Championship' there is a definite positive. We've won two and drawn one in our first three games. Actually, we should have won today against Stoke City (see photo) but we managed to miss a penalty. We're really quite good at missing penalties. And getting players injured - but I'll tell you all about that another time.
So for now at least the Blues are doing fine and sitting pretty in fourth place. Will we manage to keep up our good start? Will we sign even more players before the transfer window closes? Will we see the mighty Blues returning to the Premiership where they belong? Will the hearts of every Birmingham City fan be bursting with pride as the tears of joy and undying loyalty for their team pour forth in an explosion of pure love ?
No. But we might finish 11th. Or 12th
