WHAT DOES 'KRO' MEAN?
'KRO' means Keep Right On and is the chant sung by Birmingham fans since the mid-1950s. The song was originally written and sung by singer and comedian Sir Henry Lauder, with 'KRO' also used by fans as a hashtag on social media. Brady, who watched the 3-1 win over Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney's Wrexham in September, will further endear himself to supporters with his use of the acronym.
