One minor edit, your quote on Mowbray whilst at Albion, I think you have the year wrong 👍🏻
Brilliant.

People should read the comments about constantly pining for the past and take it onboard.
Best one yet.

Thongs seal of approval. Well done.👏

I do love that phrase.

Strangely enough, after a post-match pint in Bar 8 whilst killing time before my train, I spotted three people peering through the door to the press room in the Main Stand and thought it a bit odd. I wondered if maybe they wanted to try and nick a programme or team sheet. Or even the Beau Brummie costume . . .

You are correct. Apologies and thank you.

It was from a story Chris Lepkowski did in 2007. It had - for some reason - been updated in 2012 by Birmingham Live and that's where erroneously the year came from!

I'll have to sack my staff.

They were great days.
