Guys, you have quickly become my favourite Blues channel by far. The conversation is always engaging and insightful, great work as always!
Thank you so much for your encouraging comment which is greatly appreciated. We are really pleased you are enjoying the content on our channel. KRO
As a Birmingham fan since the 70-71 season and have so many memories at St Andrews you cant help but be excited by this news but it feels like we are having all these carrots dangled in front of us and the misfortunes on the pitch are snatching them away
I for one cant wait for this season to end , ive supported the club for 50 years and cant remember a season of so many ups and downs
We absolutely have to stay up this season , if you dont win football matches you dont put bums on seats thats a fact no matter how good the facilities are KRO
Thank you very much for your comment which is greatly appreciated. I think you sum up nicely how Bluenoses are feeling at the moment. We can’t fully enjoy the prospect of a new stadium as we have got this season on our minds. I too will be happy when this season is over and hopefully we can get onto more steady ground from next season, however this is Birmingham City and you never know! KRO
It’s fantastic stuff and can’t wait to see it all in more detail, I’m 60 this year and St Andrews is a place my dad took me to in the 70s and will always have them memories but to compete at the top level this is exactly what’s needed
Onward and upward KRO
Thank you very much for your comment which is appreciated. I’m one year behind you being 59 this year and started going to St. Andrew’s in the late 70’s. It has always been a special place and always will be however to compete in this modern era we need a new sports arena and I’m positive these owners will deliver it for us. KRO
I hope im alive to witness this new stadium, the club is certainly moving in the right direction and after that Preston game, wow this club definitely has the capacity to be in the big time. K.R.O Lads great work again.
Thank you very much for your comment which is greatly appreciated. I think the owners will want to progress as quickly as possible and I’m thinking that a time frame of 5-7 years may be realistic. Really exciting times ahead! KRO
Good comment on Gary cook. Easy to criticise but he has done well aside fro wr. Well done Blues boardThe city is blue. Kro
Thank you for your comment. We all make mistakes but we need to give credit where it is due and despite the Rooney mistake, Gary Cook had already done so many positive things so far. KRO
Top of the wishlist: bogs with hot water and working hand dryers; parking; shop with stock and better food provision!
Thank you for your comment. I had to laugh when I read it because that’s exactly what me and Matt were talking about in terms of some of the improvements that we would like to see. Just give us hot water and a decent pint and we will be as happy as Larry! KRO
When Tom Brady completes his buyout of the LA Raiders they'll be coming to the Birmingham Superdome for their "overseas" games. I'll bet it'll be similar to Tottenham - football + concerts + NFL
Thank you very much for your comment. The potential endless and these are really exciting times . KRO
I would hope that our new stadium could have a roof, that would attract more entertainment due to England's wonderful sunny weather lol
Thank you very much for your comment which is appreciated. That sounds fantastic and with these owners I’m sure nothing is off the table! KRO
@@SmallHeathAllianceFC it is going to be epic. I know we are all hurting at the current results but I cant help thinking that this rebuild is going to be successful and completely transform the club
@@user-qh3cq3gq2x I think that the one positive thing at the moment is that we do have a bright future. It doesn’t seem like it at the moment with our league position and performances but at least there is this to hang onto. I think 12 months on from now we will be in a much better position. KRO
I have to and I've said it before I'm a QPR fan but I like this channel, I think a lot more Birmingham fans should subscribe.
Thank you very much that is very appreciated. We only published our first video on 9th February so less than two months ago and the response has really surprised us. Good luck for the rest of the season and I hope we will be playing you again next season in the championship. Kind regards.
Gents these owners are serious and the fans will come back. Back in the 70s crowds of 40000 plus was a regular event
Thank you very much for your comment. Totally agree, if they can also get it right on the pitch the fans will return. It is understandable at the moment why we are not getting bigger crowds as the fans are used to being let down. Once they see that this is real and the future is very bright they will come back. We have an amazing fan base. KRO
@@SmallHeathAllianceFC I completely agree with you. As you say some fans are probably thinking we have seen it all before and things turn to shit. You only have to look at clubs like Leicester, Sunderland and there capacities. In no way do I mean any offence towards these particular clubs but the potential is far greater at Blues. Man City and Man United pack there stadiums every week so why not Birmingham. After all we are the second largest city in the uk. Large areas of the city are bluenoses and it is just a case of the owners gaining there trust. I do believe Wagner and Co are heading in the right direction with us.
@@ahawkins628 definitely, these owners are serious about Blues and the future should be really exciting. KRO
Hi your channel for the blues is by far the best on CZcams.keep it going.KRO.
Thank you very much for your comment which is greatly appreciated. KRO
Hope it all works out for BCFC .
RIP TREVOR FRANCIS.
Baggies fan
Thank you very much for your comment which is greatly appreciated. As Blues fans we will never take anything for granted but we are definitely in a much better place under our new owners. Good luck for the rest of the season. Kind regards.
@@SmallHeathAllianceFC Thanks for the reply .
We had an ownership change too.
No more LAI relieving the club of large sums.
All the best
KRO.
@@thepharcyde5239 yes, we saw that. Hopefully now a brighter future for both of our clubs. Kind regards
I'm very excited about a new super stadium... stadiums of approx 55,000 - 60,000 take 3 years to build, as the Tottenham one was started around February 2016 and was opened in April 2019 so just over 3 years.
I initially thought that 55,000 would be the capacity like you said but Americans tend to build big so maybe 65,000 or even 70,000 as they may want NFL games as one of the other sports and they have said "Super Stadium" so I guess that may mean a big one!
Also possible would be that if ever the FA Cup semi finals were to be played in proper neutral venues like they used to be then our new stadium would be a great place for one 😁 instead of down the road in Aston.. 😂
Personally I'd love it to look like the Tottenham stadium with a massive single tier stand at one end and call it the Kop.
As a bluenose that has been going to games since around 1990 I am so excited at the prospect of going to a game and being in amongst 50,000 plus fellow bluenoses and hearing KRO belted out around it makes me very happy and cannot wait. I can't remember my first game but my now 73 year old dad took me to Wembley in 91 ( Tranmere ) John Gayle etc 😁 and through the 90's we went to about 5 games per season, and in 95 we went to Wembley again which was a great season.
The 2 Wembley trips I was aged 10 in 91 then 14 in 95 as my birthday is October, now 43 and 44 in October I haven't been down to a game at St Andrews since April 2019 when we beat Leeds 1-0 and Che scoring the goal, mainly down to the nightmare trying to park and then get away after matches and also the price of tickets as I've been in and out of work over the last 10 years.
Quite often my dad tells me that back in the 60's and 70's when he went he'd often be in 50,000 plus crowds so I hope I can be soon 🙏 and hope he's still alive so I can take him 😊
Many thanks for the great chats you do and a big KRO
Richard
Thank you very much for your comment Richard and we are really pleased you enjoy our podcasts. You give some great memories of the Blues and Wembley trips and for many of them I was there myself. Really exciting times ahead and after the last 10 years we have had it’s great to have a brighter future! KRO
New location is literally up the road. This will be an easy transition - super pumped for the new location and the opportunities we are being provided ❤
Thank you very much for your comment. Yes, literally a stones throw away from our current ground. Really exciting times ahead! KRO
Best blues channel absolute quality kro
Thank you very much for your comment which is greatly appreciated. We are really pleased you are enjoying our content. KRO
Even getting the train next to the Birmingham wheels site when the stadium is built just looking out the window and seeing the stadium on the train won’t get old
Thank you very much for your comment. Yes there are so many possibilities and so much to look forward to, something that we have not had for a very long time. KRO
Also it's right next to adderley park train station so perfect for me to get to Marston Green .
Thank you very much for your comment. Yes, the transport links will be better and I suspect that Adderley Park station might be upgraded and possibly renamed. KRO
What a sensible Channel , its good to dream, I hope it happens for you and it gets Blues back up their.
Thank you very much for your comment which is greatly appreciated. Our owners have massive ambition and given us confidence in a brighter future and I’m sure we will finally start to move forward after many years in the doldrums. Kind regards
Apparently, Medco House right next to the wheels park has just been sold as well for over 5 million, if this is part of the development the site will be huge and takes it right up to Adderley Park station, my guess would be at least a 60 thousand seater stadium to cater for NFL games and open air gigs to generate income
Thank you very much for your comment. The site is much larger than most Blues fans thought I suspect and gives scope for so much potential. Really exciting development in the clubs history and something that I never thought I would see in my lifetime. KRO
The only worry I have about the new complex is will it always be owned by Birmingham City FC and we will always play there if knighthead ever sell up this is the sort of reassurance that us as fans need because we don’t ever want to end up like Coventry KRO
Thank you very much for your comment. I dont think that is too much of a worry as Blues will own the land and the stadium so presumably any future sale would be for the club and the stadium. With Coventry the football club were and still are tenants as the stadium is not theirs as it is owned by someone else. KRO
yep pusb
Yep good news not being negative, our league position is very precarious.. lot’s of happy memories of St Andrews been going since 1972..
Thank you very much for your comment. Yes, our form and league position at present are pouring cold water in everything good that is happening off the pitch. Let hope they can turn it around. KRO
Nice channel, enjoyed this video. GL KRO SOTV 👍
Thank you very much your comment which is greatly appreciated. We are really pleased you enjoyed the video. KRO
Good work guys. The show is never too quick or too long. KRO
Thank you very much for your comment which is greatly appreciated. We are really pleased that you are enjoying our podcasts. KRO
Great ambition , you must be excited. Birmingham will boom post HS2.
Thank you very much for your comment which is really appreciated. Yes we are really excited and can’t believe this is happening to our club. There are a lot of doubters out there from other clubs and other parts of the media who don’t believe this is possible and it will never happen, however our owners are serious and the land is already bought. The future for us is beyond anything that I ever thought I would see in my lifetime! KRO
@@SmallHeathAllianceFC congratulations, the future is looking great .
@@normhanson981 thank you. KRO
I think if Birmingham where doing as well as my team Ipswich, you should easily fill a stadium of at least 40,000,after all isn"t Birmingham a huge city not everybody supports Villa.I hope your owners give Tony Mowbray a chance, when he is better.
Thank you very much for your comment which is greatly appreciated. We have a massive fan base which has been neglected buy our previous owners after many years of decline. The future now looks bright and the possibilities are endless for our club especially if they can give us a competitive team. We are all hoping and looking forward to Tony Mowbray coming back next season fit and well.
Good luck to Ipswich as well, what a season you are having. I was at Portman Road a few weeks ago when you beat us 3-1 and you thoroughly deserve to be where you are. I hope you get promoted and good luck for the rest of the season. Kind regards.
Central to everything and focus point for the city of Birmingham. Great decision. We carry the name of the city loud and proud Kro. And good job you two guys. Level and rational as always.
Thank you for your comment. Yes, buying the land is a great decision and a real step forward for our amazing club! We are pleased that you are enjoying our podcasts. KRO
BAD IDEA, believe me being a COV fan, what we would do to have Highfield rd back, why move from St Andrews, its yours, its unique, its got history, ITS BLUES, ask COV, West ham, Reading etc, who would rather keep hold of their own grounds, 60k stadium in league one, is St Andrews ever full? good luck. pusb
Thank you for your comment. Although our league position and form at the moment are worrying, the mid to long term vision for our club is massive and they clearly don’t think that the current ground can fulfil that vision. The difference with Coventry is that the land the Blues owners have bought very close to the existing ground will be owned by the club as will the new stadium. When Coventry moved into what was the Ricoh area, they never owned it, they were tenants and that is still the same situation today. That will not be the case for the Blues who will own the land and the stadium. It will still be a rench moving to a new stadium but I think that is what is needed move the club forward and to make our owners vision a reality. Kind regards
I think you will regret it, but good luck if it happens, pusb@@SmallHeathAllianceFC
I think being the second city why wouldnt you make it as big as Wembley Stadium . More seats hopefully means cheaper tickets and bigger buzz.
Thank you very much for your comment. Our owners are extremely ambitious and I have a feeling that the new stadium will be bigger than many if us imagine. More seats means that the staff will be able to host major events and that will generate good income for the club. Kind regards.
Gutted at first as we all love St Andrews but the future is looking bright for us. How long and how big is that new Everton stadium going to take? I also agree it won’t just be a football stadium and training ground, why not do something like Tottenham with the American football pitch, if a moving floor/pitch is “cheap” otherwise the grass would be ruined 😂. Keep up the great videos guys. KRO !!!
Thank you very much for your comment which is greatly appreciated. We are pleased that you are enjoying our videos. I think the plans for the new stadium will be bold as our owners are very ambitious and as you point out it will be sad to leave our current home but we will only be moving just down the road, so that is good. The future looks really bright. KRO
Short walk down Venetia Road you're there.
Thank you for your comment. I’m pleased the new site is so close to the existing stadium. KRO
For me I can’t wait even tho they have made our stadium look great again it’s time to move we need to think big and move with the times I think it will be under 5 years it took 3 years to build the new spurs stadium and I think the new owners will want it done sooner rather than later KRO
Thank you very much for your comment which is greatly appreciated. The current stadium is so much better with all of the improvements and the UB40 concert yesterday was so well planned and so well ran it gave us a little glimpse into the future. I think about 5 years is what we will be looking at. It’s so nice to have so much to look forward to after so many years in the doldrums. KRO
Build it . . . And they will come
My first match was 1980, St Andrews was past it sell by date then, Sullivan and Golds did great ‘half’ a job but were working with a tired and then already out of date business model, get rich, buy flash car, buy big house, buy helicopter, buy a football club and never had the true love and passion we all have for our City and our Club to be bothered to push on and compete in the 21st century where owners are countries and global corporations. I think the Americans (and others) are now cottoning on to fact history, tradition and passion are needed to sustain success and are happy to buy this. I am not a great one for blind loyalty (U2 haven’t made a decent record since Joshua Tree) and don’t believe we are the best fans in the world because being a fan is not a competition, we have passion, loyalty, humour and stoicism but so do, Brandford, Barnsley, Oldham, Swindon and MK Dons but they are not on the middle of a massive conurbation shortly less than 2 hours from Heathrow.
Thank you very much for your comment. Yes, built it, give us a competitive team and the fans will return in their droves. KRO
The Tom Brady connection makes more sense now - expect to see NFL games hosted in the new stadium 👀
Thanks for commenting Phil, always appreciated.
Yeah, I didn’t really think about this connection until your message and other peoples comments.
I know Wembley usually hosts a few NFL games a year but never really heard of anywhere else hosting them. Saying that it isn’t high up my agenda list to keep track off but yeah, wouldn’t surprise me to see this as well.
Thanks again and KRO!
It's the extra income that Birmingham can gain from a site of this size that would allow them extra transfer money and wages which makes a huge difference when challenging for promotion to the premier league.
Thank you very much for your comment. Yes, our new owners have massive plans for us and much of that is about driving income into the club. The new site is huge and only a stones throw away from our current ground. If we can stay up this season the summer transfer window should be really exciting for us. Kind regards
We are that used to being the " under class " club - the club that even local media has no love for .
They will be falling over themselves soon .
Blues fans in general are in for a huge shock ,for the good .
We will be , what we started in the 70s , and then blew it .
4th highest crowds in the old 1st division , and threw it away , and then decline .
At last , a team has come in , and has faith in us all - the forgotten .
This could be huge - if we can keep the passion and the volume it will be some venue .
I have one dying wish ....to walk into villa Park, and sing the songs about their stadium , that they have been singing about ours for years 😂....I will die a happy man then .
Their jealousy has already started by the way 👍, because they know it will soon be " game on
@@andyniblett8986 thank you very much for your comment. The tide is definitely turning and it is a really exciting time to be a Blues fan after years of let downs and disappointments. KRO
I hope your dreams are fulfilled soon. Although I'm not a fan of Villa i do like their stadium lol @andyniblett8986
When we visit Wembley we can sell 50 thousand tickets and that's with more fans wanting tickets. No bother with fan base just depends on success kro
Thank you very much for your comment. We have definitely got the fan base and as you point out if we get a competitive team we will be able to sell out a large stadium. KRO
If only we can stay up the world's are oyster
Thank you for your comment. The current league form and position is taking the shine of the many great things that are happening off the pitch. I really hope we can stay up this season but the players really need to step up for the remaining games. KRO
Do not worry about a new stadium we need to stay in the championship first and foremost or if we don’t we need to build a new team
Thanks for commenting always appreciated.
I think most blues fans would appreciate that is certainly the pressing matter and our clubs highest priority. We were almost just reacting to the announcement and news :)
Terrible result today and much bigger challenge on Monday with a team pushing to secure a play off spot.
Thanks again and KRO!
@@SmallHeathAllianceFC at least it wasn’t 5-0 like poor old Walsall
@@SmallHeathAllianceFC feels similar to Everton building a new stadium but struggling where it matters on the pitch
Like the new ub40 song forever true some great old footage
@@siglo2764 very true. Our owners have not had a transfer window yet so this team is still John Eutaces. The summer will change that but I hope we are still in the Championship! KRO
The off field seems positive, so far with the new owners. The on field not so much. At the end of the day we are a football club first. I hope this doesn't get lost.
I think they need to be very careful how they go about this. In theory it could be great. Putting in place ideas and designs for, now, the near future, the medium future as well as the long term future. it may be something the can do in stages, for example I think, could be wrong, we are paying quite a bit a year for. The first thing could be to move the training ground and to stop paying rent. A top training facility will improve the development of youth players and attract players. Something that we will need if we are to build a sustainable successful club.
Thank you very much for your comment. I think the on field performances and our league position at the moment is taking the shine off this great news. The owners will know that they need to get things right on the pitch first and that can start to happen after this season is over as there are so many players out of contract. I just hope we can stay in the championship as the rebuild will be very different from league one. I think the plan is to have the training ground on the new site by the new stadium, which is one of the points you make. KRO
@@SmallHeathAllianceFC Very true. One question though. How did you manage to keep the Fly.be shirt? That sponsor has to have been one of the worst for coming off the shirt. Have both home and away one with it on. Away is a mess.
@@davidlewis8899 thank you very much for your comment. The honest truth is that it is not washed very often! I know what you mean, I have another where the Flybe is coming off but I don’t wear that one very often! KRO
@@SmallHeathAllianceFC The one you had hung up on the right was the first I bought, think was around 1999? A favourite is the 2011/12 Yellow shirt, no sponsor for Europe

Whats flying under the radar is birmingham city council have made millions even though they are skint 😅
Thank you for your comment which is appreciated. I think the council had to sell some of their assets due to the financial meltdown they are currently in, so I suspect the sale of the Wheels site will prove to be a good deal for all parties. KRO
Will take years and years to fill over 30k, we didnt sell out in the prem but it could happen in 10+ years
Thank you for your comment which is appreciated. It will take a little time to build some momentum and to get the fans convinced that this is not another false hope that will end badly. We generally struggled in the premiership apart from a few good seasons but if the owners can put together a competitive team we can easily fill a large stadium. KRO
We did pretty much sell out in the Premier league! 03/04 season, apart from 3 games... against Fulham 14th Sept 27,250, Charlton 3rd Nov 27,225 and Bolton 6th March 28,003 the other 16 games we got 29,000 plus every time with the biggest being 29,588 against Arsenal as capacity was 30,016 KRO 👍 so we averaged 29,073 for the season
@@richardeustace2071 with a successful team, the potential with our fan base is immense. I’m sure the owners know that which is one of the main reasons they bought the club. KRO
@@SmallHeathAllianceFC yes definitely, I reckon once the stadium is built then the fans will go in the thousands as I will because of wanting to be in a fantastic new stadium 👌 I cannot wait to hopefully hear the plans from Cook and Wagner on 9th April, I'm not going but can't wait to find out afterwards 😀 KRO
@@richardeustace2071 definitely and really exciting times ahead. KRO
, I think it's great news for the city and the club but I think the owners thinking financial they can make more money on a mega Sports Complex and if we go down but I think we will go down and they're not particularly bother at the present moment if we do go down they know they can generate a lot more money when they get it going it will take a long time to us to come back up again but the wealth the complex will give the money attract decent players players we got now are absolutely rubbished
Thank you very much for your comment which is appreciated. I think you are right in that the pace of this development will be hindered if we are relegated however the positive thing is that the owners are serious about making this happen. I will be so glad when this season is over and we can have a massive reset in the summer regardless of which division we are in. KRO
to be honest in my life time, blues have only won the league cup and every other success has been expected for a team that belongs to a big city. You expect us to be in the prem and finish top half so what have we really done at St Andrews? absolutely nothing but under achieve so i cant wait to get rid of that 3/4 finished embarrassment of a stadium. Stop looking in the past because the past isnt that great time to look forward new stadium new blues
Thank you very much for your comment. We have been crying out for owners like these, certainty from my own living memory. These owners have massive plans for us and it is so exciting to think of what could happen in the future. A new stadium is part of that dream and I can’t wait! KRO
We all love St Andrews, but it's time to move on. Its a new era. We are finally going places.
Thank you very much for your comment. It will definitely be sad to leave St. Andrew’s, it is such a special place, however there are good times ahead and a new stadium will be a big part of our big future. KRO
@@SmallHeathAllianceFC My first game at St Andrews was V Cardiff City, Dec 2nd 1961 (won 3-0) 63 years ago by my reckoning !

1963 we won the league cup. Beat the Villa, 3-1 The final was played over two legs, home and away. I went to both. Best feeling ever, collecting the cup at Villa Park.
Time to move on ....if we dont its ultimately extinction .
When all the noise was going around about moving to the edge of town , i always said " as close to the city centre as possible " ...
Thank you very much for your comment. It seems right to have a new stadium on the doorstep of the current ground. KRO
The clubs owners are talking big,but talks cheap & the appointment of Rooney as manager is reason enough to be concerned about what the owners motives really are ,do they really care about the well being of the club & the fans? & weather they have the knowledge to turn their big talk into actual reality. How many new owners have come into clubs around the country with big talk & promises only for it to become an alround nightmare. Building a large capacity stadium might sound good,but St Andrews is hardly ever at full capacity ,apart from when the Villa come to play. Caution maybe needed,fans trust must be hard earned over a long period of time. 🤔....⚽....🖕
Thanks for commenting, we really appreciate it :)
Yeah, the Rooney thing has really left a sour taste in people's mouths and I have no doubt when this season finishes they will need to take a look at the impact of this decision and how it positioned us as a club. It really brought the circus to town.
I do think the owners have made some constructive changes and positive decisions as well since the start of the season but let's hope the momentum continues and they can really show us there intentions this summer when we get our first full transfer market with the new owners.
I agree that was a huge mistake to get wrong but overall I feel really optimistic. We have had such a rotten 12 years as a club we deserve some good times ahead.
Thanks again and KRO!
Sorry but we do have lots of potential! As I've said in my own comment we could easily fill 50,000 or even 60,000 as once the team starts to rise up the league next season we'll fill St Andrews then once they build the new stadium which I think will be 60,000 😊 then having a fantastic looking stadium to visit will draw more and more fans back to support the club... but I can see us moving into our new stadium in probably 2028/29 hopefully in the Premier league and we'll sell 35,000 plus season tickets, and get crowds of 56,000 at least KRO SOTV

This is a smoke screen it’s looking like an NFL stadium 🏟️ which will mean ownership is just a stepping stone for there stadium investment sorry but true
Thank you for your comment. The club hosted an open house earlier this week and set out their vision for the club, which is amazing. They are serious about developing the club in terms of its infrastructure, the squad, the women’s team, the youth teams and benefiting the city of Birmingham. There is no smoke screen at all. An NFL stadium would not work in this country. Yes, we may be able to host one or two NFL games but they want a stadium for the football club first but which is also multi-use to drive revenue streams. We are in a horrible place in the league at the moment but after this season our owners will start to rebuild our squad and we will start to finally move forward even if that means starting next season in league one. The present moment is tough but our future looks amazing. KRO
