Any Bluenoses on here?

[Ray Nolan]

Just wondering if there are any other Birmingham City supporters on here? If so, give us a shout! It'd be good to see some more members of the Worldwide Bluenose Zulu Army make themselves known.

To any Vileans that read this:

Birmingham City 3-0 Aston Vile
Aston Vile 0-2 Birmingham City

Nuff Said!

Haha okay,

Thought you were talking about Rangers. (And no, the Cup Winners Cup doesn't count)

 

[robbieando]

You think I would be dumb enough to do that with my Rangers hat on

Look I would be going for Celtic if it wasn't for my pride. Can't have Celtic having more European Cup can we

Ancient history mate! Have a look at the current league table for a grip on the current reality!

Anyway, I'd rather the likes of the Leyland DAF Cup & the Auto Windscreens Shield than be associated with the scum from across the Expressway, no matter what trophies they've won!

Have we billed you yet for the cost of replacing the seats you guys ripped up a few weeks back

Your right, I rather the Auto Sheld anyday

We ain't payin' mate because they got ripped up for self-defence. How you lot at Vile Park got away without punishment for all the disturbances that night is unbelievable given that it was the Vile that started it (trying to storm the Witton End, invading the pitch, the fighting around the ground, throwing bottles over the police lines at our fans, etc, etc) Given how we got carpeted for what happened at St. Andrews (most of which was not mailicious unlike what happened at Vile Park) and that Michael Harper got 4 months porridge for giving Enckleman (top Bluenose him) a love tap while that prat at Vile Park who had a go at Robbie Savage got nothing but a warning (he did get the crap beat out of him in a pub in Redditch this week though) it shows that you lot lead a charmed life. I s'pose Deadly Doug called in another favour from his mates at the FA.

Still, the fact that we thrashed you in both games and will probably (touchwood) finish above you this season (we gave you 10yrs head start and passed you in 6 months) is consolation enough.

Keep living in the past down at Vile Park because the future is bright, the future is BLUE!

Don't worry were letting you have a season in the sun. Its hard work being the best team in Birmingham each season you know.

We got off the crowd trouble because we had a clean record, something which Birmingham City didn't have, plus our police managed to keep the Villa fans in the right area something which you failed to do at St Andrews.

I wish Doug would retire, so we could spend some money to get a proper team on the pitch - come on Dion Dublin who is he kidding

How you going to go next season when all your loan players go back to where they came from????? Hard to keep them when you have already spent your transfer budget for the summer in January

Vile have a clean record? Pfft! They have been involved in plenty of trouble over the years, maybe not on as many high profile occasions as we have been, but they're no angels. At St. Andrews the Blues fans didn't get into the Vile area, the stewards did keep them out. When Vassell scored the 'offside' goal the Vile fans did go on to the pitch and did make for the Blues fans in the other half of the Railway End, thankfully our stewards stopped them. Everyone knows that Birmingham City Council & West Midlands Police are card carrying Vile so it was no surprise to us that you got away with it.

As for Doug (we 'noses wish him the best in his fight with cancer BTW) I hope he's there for many a year to come. Face it, as long as he is the head honcho up there the Vile are going nowhere. Anyone who thinks Graham 'we'll take 12 easy points off Blues & WBA' Taylor is a decent manager has got rocks in his head. If the Vile stay in this slump (and it looks they will) then the club is going to have some pretty serious problems. At the moment your crowds are no better than ours (we have more ST holders, we've always been the bigger club in terms of support in Birmingham) because let's face it, Vile fans are fickle. When you lot went down to the 3rd you barely got 2000 a week at Vile Park, we at least managed 5000 a week when it happened to us. Given that you've had it your own way for so long in the West Midlands I think it'll take a while before you lot shake the complacency and respond to our challenge and possibly that of Wolves if they get up this season.

I'm not worried about Blues hanging on to our players, we have the richest owners in British Football so money is not an issue. Sullivan & the Golds wont pay extortionate wages but they will pay enough to keep Dugarry et al there. I expect us to further strengthen the squad over summer, the money is there to do it (and it should be with the amount Karen Brady wrings out of us fans!) Steve Bruce has got us playing some pretty decent Football, bringing Dugarry and Clemence in has helped in that regard. They are also bringing out the best in players like Lazaridis, Hughes, Horsfield. Plus we have a very solid defensive unit with Cunningham, Upson, Purse, etc and a solid defensive midfield unit led by Savage & Cisse. We are putting together a good squad, one that I would honestly say is better than Vile's at the moment.

You'd better get used to us being the number one team in Birmingham, it's gonna be a while before you challenge us.

So why follow Rangers and not Celtic then?

 

[robbieando]

Why, because my father is Scottish and is a Prod. My mother is a Aussie and is a Catholic. She picked the reglion, He picked the sporting teams. The whole crap of Prods/Catholics is not something I buy into, because its a waste of time.

I'm a Bluenose, but an Everton one.......

The Prods/Catholics 'crap' as you so eloquently put it is what made Rangers & Celtic who they are. Considering Catholics have played for the Gers it may not be as prevalent as it once was, but never dismiss it.

 

[robbieando]

I know I'm one of the few Catholic Rangers around, but as I said it down to family history. My father was a ger, his father was a ger, his father was a ger and so on.

The Prods vs Catholics made these clubs yes, but its something that has to be controled. We have Catholics at Rangers now and even had a ex Celtic player - Celtic have Prods, yet have never had an ex Ranger.

I'm proud to be Catholic and I don't hide it when following Rangers.
