    October, Steve Bruce on the brink of the chop....'one game away' if you believed the local hacks (and I do, despite what Gold is saying this morning!!) Six months later and they're promotoed back to the Premiership.</p>

    One word. Patience.</p>

    They will be back down next season,

    they were the worst team I saw at Oakwell this season, other than ourselves. They couldnt string 2 passes together.</p>

    Considering the money that Bruce has spent on players he doesnt appear to have come close to creating a team that can play football. Hence the crowds at St Andrews being so poor this season.</p>

    Like they give a tuppenny phuck!!

    They've finished 2nd. Lots and lots of places and points ahead of us. They'll be in the Premiership next year, with a guaranteed minimum return of &pound;30M for just turning up. I doubt they're losing too much sleep about wasting a few chances at Oakwell.

    At the moment I am sure they dont ,

    but when they are bottom at Christmas having spent the &pound;30M+ on players , playing **** football I guess they will be caring a bit more.</p>

    Birmingham fancy themselves as a &quot;Big Club&quot; so I would think they would have more ambition than yo-yoing between the leagues.</p>

    I am sure you know best though.</p>

    I think Ritchie almost got the chop in our promotion season

    There were A LOT of fans saying he should go, and that's generally what does it.

    I don't know 'owt fella, other than that a bit of patience goes a long way in football. We'll never ever know, but I'd love to see what might have happened had Gudjon or Ritchie been given a fairer crack at it.

    Doesn't matter...

    .. there could be a thread about flower arranging and it would still end up as a AR v SD battle:)

    AR's would be flamboyent, whereas SD's may be a little dull but may be able to stay up for longer
