Sorry i am grumpy now ,i was promised 40 mill in January (we spent 6 mill) we were promised another 40 mill in the summer (we have spent 12 mill).we were in for this and that player but no one has signed for a transfer fee.
We were in for Clyne when Palace were in administration and we could not agree a fee with them surely we could afford a fee for him ,but no deal has been agreed or done ,it should be easy for a player who wants to come.
Nzogbia seems to be the longest proposed transfer in history but this has now bitten the dust seems like the same old story to me bull from the board and we swallow it buy our season tickets (up to 13000 now) then nothing happens.

Only 2 games in scored 5 goals ( Inc owngoal ) and are still unbeaten. Whatever has happened is no over. Build a bridge and get over it. Still looking good we should be happy

I'm not grumpy , just disappointed we faffed about with one signing for two months without going for other players.

Three days left and nothing on the horizon.

New board nothing changes.

Do you really feel nothing has changed?

Do you also think that whilst pursuing N'Somnia that the management team have not been doing work towards other signings.

In that some things are the same, maybe it is time for people to accept that is the environment that these football clubs operate in, and is nothing very much to do with Blues in isolation at all.

So because McLeish has no back up plan to N'Zogbia, this is not our problem but a football problem, is it?

I don't. But based on past windows you can understand the scepticism, surely?

I don't. But based on past windows you can understand the scepticism, surely?

But you stated it as something that you know, not something you are concerned about.

I do not understand the scepticism at all. I think somehow people get it into their heads that Birmingham City Football Club suffer something that does not affect every other club in Britain, if not the world. For me this is just normal business. By the way, Blues have been far more successful than the majority of clubs during this window, so the scepticism leaves me cold.

I know in my heart, but not as a fact, that McLeish DOES have a back up plan. He has proved to be a very competent manager in his time at Blues, and as such would almost certainly have back up plans. Competent managers do have back up plans.

Will we get another player of the quality we need before the close of this window? That is an entirely different matter. Your guess is as good as mine. But it will not be for the want of good management if we do not.

Well based on past performance, your feeling that he does have a back up plan might well be unfounded. We've been down this road before, remember?
Does this post count as an attack on Birmingham City, just out of curiosity?

When have we been down which road before. I really do not recognise anything that you are saying.

Thank you Lucky.
Now perhaps BCFC's no.1 fan can tell us what he meant by it was a football problem, not something exclusively connected with Blues?

well so far in this season even tho it is still early i am quite happy with the results , i have been looking at the results from last season, and against sunderland we lost at there place blackburn we won whitch we have this yr and against bolton we lost which this yr we drew.

I no we could have won that game but a draw we would have settled for before the game as they are a very difficult side to play against so if you look at it so far we are some what improving , so im wondering are blues really doing as bad as some think ?
