Hello, Brum fan here. Just a little reminder to not park on the streets next to the ground due to the recent trouble of cars being stripped during games.

The following car parks nearby are secure...

- Frederick cooper
- bordesley girls school
- adderley street
- millennium point multi storey

Enjoy the game! Think you'll batter us tbh!

Apart from New Street, are there any pubs you recommend for away fans?

Yeah the advert says that, probably the worst piece of marketing I've ever seen. Most people would read the words in red and go no further.

Gil Merrick Upper is fucking closed isn't it?

 

[edgy]

Sounds like a fair few in the home ends.

Stay safe kids.

This is probably the most crucial league game of our run in. Psychologically there will be players who will be holding back a little with the semi final in mind, not necessarily consciously but it's bound to happen. Once the Man Utd game is done, they can go full throttle every game - unless we have the final to look forward to!

 

[Garlana86]

The Birmingham crowd turn very easily, can't let them get into their stride with a sold out crowd, they have far more to lose that we do, pressure is in us, but waaaay more on them.

im in the home end undercover tomorrow, wish me luck !

Where are you sitting? (Row and seat number).

I disagree mate. They will be wanting to put in a good performance so they keep their place for the Semi.
The Hull game will be the crucial one, 3 days after Wembley, a massive come down after the excitement of the Semi and playing ManUre. That's going to be the toughest one to get up for IMO.

Birmingham fans are so so desperate to tell us to stop forcing a rivalry Never seen so many tweets and posts on forums about it.

I don't get why they deny it - They got that wound up at losing to us last season they completely trashed the away end

Our Cup Final before our Semi Final. It's good to be a Cov fan right now

Does anyone here consider Birmingham a rival? Not sure where this has come from. Is it a younger folk thing?

I don't like them

Other than Leicester and Sunderland I don't think there is a team in the league I enjoy beating more

 

[Tommo1993]

Would like to see them drop, even more so for that “too big for L1” nonsense.

Are you having a laugh, or have they actually got a lounge named after the bloke from Goldenballs????

No it’s true

 

[alexccfc99]

No it’s true

Brilliant - I'll look forward to us opening the 'John Stape off Corrie' lounge at The CBS for next season

 

[Ashdown]

I’ve known a fair few decent Blues fans but there is also many amongst them who think they are still a bunch of gangsters!

Sing your heart out for the lads!

The younger lads amongst them pick off a few people in replica shirts and call themselves Zulus

Their older fans are generally alright and at least pick/picked on like minded people, the younger ones are scruffy tramps who'd start a fight with their own shadow

 

[Grendel]

If I was an Atalanta fan and saw that, I'd book an even earlier flight home

Some may try and get UK citizenship after strolling through the scenic delights of Hall Green

Digbeth is great for ale bars, but it’ll full of home fans. So I think we’re either staying central or going further afield and then Ubering close.

There’s usually an official away day pub announced, but I’m not on Twitter.

I'm really hoping Hull will have nothing to play for at this point.

 

[Gint11]

Must win game. I think if we get the first goal, we’ll win comfortably.

 

[Nick]

They are fighting for their lives,I think play offs have gone due to Norwich being in form but if we don't win this and results go against us that's us for this season!

I hear some have already asked where the world famous golf course is upon arrival at the ground
