I can't believe people are ignoring the bigger picture. Whether we had been relegated or stayed up, this would still be the same problem. Yes, we would have had the full sky money but with CY assets frozen, we would have still struggled to kept hold of our better players and we certainly wouldn't have been able to strengthen. The writing was on the wall for months that Blues had financial problems. Yet some on here persisted to bury their heads in the sand and maintain that it was a witchhunt by the media. Now do you believe it? CY may be innocent. But, why put yourself in the position to be accused of this in the first place? Yes, Wembley was fantastic. But the club have paid for that now. It seems a distant memory to me any many other fans. That day should be cherished, as it will be a long time before we are anywhere near another cup final or success again. CY/BIH, whatever you want to call them, have borrowed vast amounts of money against the club because they had no means to take the club forward. That has backfired. Yes, they provided funds for the manager, but look at the cost? It was all going to be shortlived and a massive, massive gamble. It failed and I cannot see how CY/BIH can recover from this and turn the club around. The money had run out long before the season end and there had already been whisperings that there was no money in the summer to strengthen anyway even if we had remained in the Premiership. |

I'm no fan of McLeish but don't you think his sudden jumping ship had more to it? Like he knew the s**t was about to hit the fan? |

At least Pannu is a big tough bloke, do you recall when the `numpties` had a go at Sully & co , laST GAME v bLACKBURN? How tough do you have to be to threaten a dwarf, his two kidz a pensioner (DG) and a women (KB) Those moronic muppets showed him how little some people appreciated what he had done for the club, now thier neanderthal mates at Leeds are doing the same to Ken Bates who must be close to 80!!

Query to the censor.... This post allowed the description .." mo***ic to label the vandals ( quite rightly in my view ) In my earlier post I also called them mo**ns and the censor changed it to "idiots", which is far too soft for my liking! .. Why the different standards? P.S. I also like " neanderthal " which accurately describes this low life. |

the writings been on the wall for blues for months way before relagation ,going down just speeded up the dire financial situation we was in .the on;ly way out of this mess is either "1, a new rich owner comes in and buys the club and clears the debt ? but who is going to do that , or 2 ,we go into administration and clear the debt that way and start afresh with a new owner hopefully. take your pick because yeung and co will not get us out of this mess if he goes down or not |

All these people that mention the A word,have you seen our books then or BIH'S books, Thought not,lets wait abit before we mention it. I am sure people are doing things in the background to try and sort this out and they don't have to tell us fans anything either. |

The Board provided a squad that was plenty good enough to stayup, it was the players and negative tactics by the manager that got us relegated. |

So why would an investor put in £6 mill if we are doomed for Admin, doesn't make sense to me. |

There Is leaving because the **** Is going to hit the fan and there Is leaving the McLeish way, basically walking out of St Andrews giving each and every member of staff and every fan (Including you BBN) the finger! To go and join our closest and biggest rivals! I never, ever rated him as a manager and was over the moon when he left, but leaving the way he did was unforgivable, I just can't for the life of me see why any real Bluenose would defend him. |

Were in the black, so no option 2 is highly unlikely AND unless we were in very serious trouble no bank would let us go into administration, when I say very serious trouble I mean oweing upto 100m+ not just a couple mill. If were in in that dire straight then we w ould be selling every player for whatever we could get to cover ourselves at least for a month, not holding out on players for more money when we would certainly need it the same day. Some people don't actually read into things, if you try it you would see that we are not in the mess some say we are on here, do some light reading, don't just listen to what people say on here or what the press say. The latter will make things sound worse, its how they sell the papers. |

Regardless of the court hearing, the big question everyone should be asking is whether after everything has happened (I am talking about the owners financial reputation being in tatters) whether Yeung/BIH can steady the club, rebuild the club financially, and get us back into the Premier League as quickly as the previous board managed to do? My answer is NO and that is why they should look to sell the club and move on. |

I think 99.9% of us all agree with that. Its just the way some 'fans' are behaving that is the problem. |

At times Pannu has looked like a loose canon and the current financial constraints are frustrating. However having a go at Pannu while he was in his car and mob mentality needs to be condemned out right. No matter what has or has not gone on there is no place for this behaviour Anyone involved should be completely ashamed of themselves imo.. This behaviour towards a servant of the club is absolutely dispacable if you going to act like this why not take your money else where and do one. The staff of Birmingham City deserve far better than this dont call yourself fans because you arent. Anyone who behaves like this is toerag and an unfortunate association with Blues is no excuse. As a fan I would like to take this opportunity to apologise to Mr Pannu and Mr Yeung because this behaviour in no way represents how all the fans feel. I hope there were cameras at Derby and the barstools get banned for life. I am so angry about this it is untrue. I may not always agree with Mr Pannu but I have no doubt that he has been working his backside off and doing a fantastic job in the circumstances. If it wasnt for Mr Pannu I expect there might not be much left of Birmingham City at the moment. This forum wont allow me to write what I want to but basically aimed at those who behaved in such a treacherous way it's every four letter word and explitive you can think of. I hope you rot in a very dark place you bunch of animals. :angry: |

Im surprised Pannu has not come out with anything yet, very surprised. He would not even bother looking at the fans trying to clap him but only because i think he thought everyone was swearing at him. God knows how many times some idiots were shouting 'you chinese this, chines that'. A few of us just went 'he is not even chines your *****' to which they just almost shuffled off embarassed. From how Pannu seems i cant see him letting fans get away with that as i said orignally at one point there must of been a good 30/40 actually banging his car and another 100 singing at him. Only 15 tried helping & the rest didnt know what was really going on :blink: |

I think that is the point. The fans could have stood there and protested in a peaceful way whilst he left - whether that be by singing or holding banners up. Then he gets the general feeling of the supporters without feeling personally threatened. There are always a few who will go over the top. Its a social problem, so I wouldn't feel ashamed by it. A few nights ago the T-Mobile shop in Brixton was looted by gangs of youths, yet some youths stood and watched and didn't get involved. Its all about people and their own personal values. I still can't help but feel that Yeung/Pannu/BIH have brought this on themselves with their reckless financial mis-management, but I do agree that banging on his car and screaming racist abuse is wrong. No doubt about it. |

this 6 million invested by the 31 year old from what ive heard is to get blues through this season ,the money is so blues can pay wages and bills over the next few months .which i have heard from buisness men on the radio talking about the investment and in 2 years if things turn round and he is happy with everything can come onto the board and have a 14%stake in the club,but what happens if he isnt and wants his money back,we cant find 6p never mind 6 million |
