Birmingham City visit Griffin Park on Saturday as one of football’s fiercest, albeit unlikeliest, rivalries resumes after a twenty-year absence. Geographically, this is no Bees v Fulham or Birmingham v Wolves but, nonetheless, there was a time in the early nineties when the Blues were THE big one.
To read the rest of this article, season 2014/15 is now available to download onto Kindle (and other electronic reading device) in full. Containing additional material and even some (poor) editing, you can get it here for less than the cost of a Griffin Park matchday programme or Balti Pie.
Thanks for reading and all your comments over the course of the season. For now, I need to make more space on the site for any follow up. However, ‘close season’ will continue in full, further along.
