I've noticed a lot of doom and gloom from Blues fans so perhaps I may offer an observation from a fan of a club that's been bankrupt twice.
No large town or city club has gone out of business yet or is ever likely to. As long as the local planning authority make it clear that they see a Football Stadium in their area as a vital local ammenity nothing will change. That,s the bottom line.
A club in a city the size of Birmingham will allways be an attractive investment at the right price.
So in short - if Yeung goes, someone else will come in.
As I said in a comment to Hereford Wolf,s article I wish Blues all the very best for next season. You've got a good manager in my opinion and I hope you shock everyone, including yourselves. at how well you do.

You WILL be back

Thanks We as Blue noses have been here once under the Kumars so nothing new. We like too be peesimistic because just as things improving someone pulls the rug from under us. i like many fans who go to games or irregular like myself will never support anyone else even if we in non league. Chris Hughton things dont seem too bad need to build a new team which he as started and will take time
We are Blues, KRO

Back where? We haven't gone anywhere we've jut been relegated that's all. It's not like we have some devine right to be in the PL and in the end we got what we deserved for playing to defensive football. Nothing to do with the owners who backed the manager when needed.
We now face a tough task to get back in the prem but so do all the other clubs aiming for promotion. We now have to build a fresh team around the likes of Mutch and Redmond on a serious budget. Think we made an excellent appointment with Hughton and we all know it could be a few years before we go back up. But that's football.

Blame who I blame both yeung and AM we should have signed NZogbia who was it said too much money then goes and signing of Hleb, Martins, Bentley on large sums far more than Nzogbia wages that cost us Premier status.
We are in Championship and have no money and i hope too God Yeung dont cost us points deduction which could very well happen.

Despite my years as a Wolves fan teaching the opposite, perhaps I am a born optomist. I feel that Blues will be back in the P.L. , financially stable, sooner than most of you seem to think

Personally I agree, Wolfgang. A lot of blues fans on here are in a doom and gloom freefall. BCFC is an institution, It'll take a lot more than the dodgy dealings of some medium ranking chinese businessman to bring us down.
Thanks for your comments.

I don't think our squad is strong enough at the moment. It depends who else comes in, because we can only afford free transfers and loans.
Thanks for the kind words, and thanks for taking Johnson off our hands (Not really)

Minimum 3 seasons before we get anywhere near the PL

If our history repears itself , we are doomed , first division here we come , lets face it ,to be a bottom 6 team next year would be ok ,a top 6 would be magic , still CH could bring in 5 or 6 loans from top clubs and even BUY a couple. who knows . kro.
