By Ian Rose | May 8th, 2008

It's that time of the week again, and after a week of technical glitches that made me very nearly give up on the computer altogether, we are back with Pod episode 22. Joining me for this one are Christian Reyes, who is still licking his wounds a bit ...

The High And The Lows...

By Martin | May 5th, 2008

It's difficult to think of an even amount of highs and lows, hence the title of this post - so I'm going with 3 of each. It was incredibly hard to limit the "lows" to just 3, and it was even harder to come up with 3 highs. Highs: Newcastle Unit ...



The Unbelievable Run Continues

By timmyg | May 4th, 2008

We're finally a Premier League team. After winning two roads games in a row, and now shutting out fellow-strugglers Birmingham 2-0, it is fitting that the club is out of the relegation zone -- albeit barely. Brian McBride threw his body around ...

Fulhamerica, **** Yeah!

By Ian Rose | May 3rd, 2008

(Note: A little something for the ladies, courtesy of Brian McBride. If you're going to make a post with this many goal differential numbers in it, you need to add in some eye candy to get some butts in the seats.) The lyrics to the above-referen ...

10 Things We Learned in the Premier League

By Daryl | April 21st, 2008

1. David James thinks he's a right back Doesn't matter what type of magnificent form David James is in, he's still magnetically attracted to no-mans-land. In the early stages of Man City's 3-1 loss to Portsmouth, James came running out of his box to ...

Result: Portsmouth 4-2 Birmingham

By b-man | March 13th, 2008

Jermain Defoe put Pompey 2-0 up before even the 10minute mark! His first was from the penalty spot after David Murphy handled a cross from Baros. His second was a perfect example of his poachers nature in front of goal. It looked like Pompey were cr

EPL Round 24: Sunderland AFC vs Birmingham City FC

By Lucas | January 29th, 2008

New signing Phil Bardsley slots right into the starting IX today at the SOL, moving McShane once again to the bench. Our backline looks strong, potentially as good as the defense that shut out Pompey a couple weeks ago: Bardsley and Danny Collins with Ny

Fallout From the Bianchi Deal Affects Toro, Lazio

By Martha | January 24th, 2008

Now that Rolando Bianchi is officially a Lazio player, the impact of the move is being felt in places other than the Lazio squad. In particular, Torino are still utterly desperate for anyone who can score a goal, while the Lazio coffers are even more echo

Well, That Was Undeserved

By Jack | January 20th, 2008

Midway through the second half I said to myself, "we're going to lose this game."  And on performance alone, we probably should have. Chelsea struggled to a 1-0 win over Birmingham on Saturday in what can only be described as one of the worst perform

Reeeeeeeeeemix

By Jack | January 19th, 2008

Pon De Replay. Chelsea and Birmingham will trade pleasantries today in a rematch of the season opener. Those Blues provided quite a test for these Blues in a 3-2 decision on Aug. 12 2007 -- The Bison claiming all three points for Chelsea in the 50th minu

Birmingham 0-2 Portsmouth

By b-man | November 24th, 2007

Goals from Muntari and Krancjar ensured Harry Redknapp celebrated his 200th game in charge with a victory. Portsmouth didn't dominate Birmingham off the park as I thought they might but it was still a very reliable, professional performance. The first

Birmingham vs Pompey (Predict-a-score!!!)

By b-man | November 24th, 2007

Kanu a doubt. Herman is back but I believe that Pamarot will continue at LB. Utaka's back, as is Bouba Diop. This is going to be Redknapp's 200th game in charge of Pompey. Expected line up: James(gk). Johnson(rb), Campbell(cb), Distin(cb), Pamarot(lb)



Rovers v Brum - Expect changes

By Dan Clough | September 26th, 2007

Rovers are set to make about six changes tonight as Sparky aims to rest key players in time for Saturday's game at Sunderland. The Beer Cup not as huge a priority as the Premiership and the UEFA Cup gives us a chance to try out some of the younger and

Brum reaction

By ed | September 24th, 2007

Bleurgh. That was pretty disappointing for us. Credit where credit's due though, Birmingham did all the right things, played a very deep line, played nice and tight and let Carra and Sami to their own devices while pressurising us in the important area

Brummy Preview

By ed | September 21st, 2007

So, Birmingham tomorrow and Steve Bruce has cleverly identified Jermaine Pennant as the danger-man his side needs to keep quiet. Talk about a Kop-out. If I was a highly paid manager, what if I picked the one player I knew the most about, regardless of the

EPL Round 2: Birmingham City vs Sunderland AFC

By Lucas | August 15th, 2007

I don't know much about Birmingham, other than that they went down with Sunderland two seasons ago, and came back up with them last time, finishing only 2 points behind the Cats at the top of the Championship table. After City's performance at Stamford B
