i intended no slight on anyone penguin, as i dont now, but i'm afraid if its not fact (which it wasnt) it IS rumour and innuendo, like it or not. i've also been watching blues for decades and can also see what others see, but until i knew the truth i believed in the man. now i admit i was wrong to, and would like to see the club correct the error and get rid so we can move on. i am happy enough to admit when i'm wrong, i'm also expecting lots of gloating and "i told you 12 months ago" posts but it wont make me feel worse than i already do, fella..

Nah, proccy, not gloating.

My point is really that the opinion and analysis on here (which is a bit different to rumour and innuendo) often gets dismissed because we don't hold the right UEFA badges or because we are just fans or whatever.

Many of the criticisms on here (such as, the tactical limitations of playing 2 defensive midfielders in 4-4-2 or our lack of ingenuity at set-pieces) are not rumours. They are well-argued observations.

I just think that we should give more respect to fans opinions sometimes (on all sides of the argument). I think that quite a few posters on here are intelligent readers of the game & have identified accurately many of the points that KK is now making.

having just read Kenny's statement i think it's chilling....

i recall back in September one or two on here - i recall St Andys - talking about the loss of the fitness coach Arnaud and wondering if there was more to it than what was reported. it now seems there was.

this football club has had the opportunity to hold on to our Premiership status, but through the arrogance and poor management, from both Bruce and the board, we are now in a mess.

it's time something changed. time the board put up or shut up. time Bruce left or was fired and time for the board to build new bridges with supporters, after all we are the lifeblood of this football club.

and as Kenny said, after many dark days we deserve true success!

Spot on. Its time for a radical overhaul of this football club.

Yes we are relegated and this is our chance to get the right manager, coach, playing staff, fitness expert, dietician, physio etc in and start from scratch. If it means a few seasons of fizzy pop footie then so be it.

Theres always two sides to every story. Dont believe something because someone says it. Never have done never will...if you can believe what im saying. Maybe theres sour grapes because he aint got a contract.

I was a member of support the club no matter what brigade..
when Kenny cunningham whom I've met and have the utmost respect for says what he has..given the type of person he is it's time to act

Bruce's position is untenable..........
The board need to seriously question the reason for their involvemnet in BCFC and act accordingly

i too have met K K on many occassions (same dentist ha ha )

and he has always been 100 honest and the most NORMAL footballer i have ever met

i also think a contract was offered but for the reasons he has outlined today HE DECLINED

I think you could be right. When they said "au-revoir" to the fitness coach they said something along the lines of "if he cant speak english and communicate with the players there is no point him being here".

However according to KC it seems they understood him fine.

Makes you wonder if his proposed methods were set to prove too costly for the board?

The board need to seriously question the reason for their involvemnet in BCFC

That is a question that I have posed before : what's in it for DS & DG ?

I can't really believe that they are in it for the money, because :

(a) there are many better investments than football clubs
(b) any profits that they get from bcfc are chickenfeed in their world
© they would have come in, stayed for 5 years & got out with a profit
(d) they could manage their investment remotely, yet they put in a huge amount of personal time & effort

If they are in it for the glory and prestige :

(a) as KK alluded to, the owners who get the glory are the likes of Steve Gibson & Jack Walker who invest in their clubs
(b) where's the glory & prestige in getting relegated ?

I really do not understand them.

when you get a player of KK's integraty it is hard to see why he would lie, he was not sure he wanted to stay and i cant say it was about money.

KK has confermed alot of wht i have been told buy people who work at the club so i have no reason but to believe it.

the evidence is also backed up by our performances this season.

Now that we have some solid insight into the goings on at Birmingham, I too have changed my position.

Kenny - you may well have just done this club a good service.

It is now time for Bruce's reign at Birmingham City to end.

His position is totally untenable now, and rather than fans hysteria to go on, we now have direct quotes from our former captain.
