  • WHAT HAPPENED?

    The Blues, who set a new benchmark in English football with an astonishing 111-point haul in League One, are now being tipped to challenge for promotion from the Championship. They broke the previous points record of 106, held by Reading since their 2005–06 Championship-winning season, to emerge as the side with the most points in English football history.

    THE BIGGER PICTURE

    Throughout the campaign, Birmingham demonstrated a balance of attacking flair and defensive solidity that few clubs could contend with. They concluded the season as the highest scorers in the league with 84 goals while simultaneously boasting the stingiest defence, conceding just 31.

  • WHAT ANDRE FLO SAID

    Former Chelsea striker and lifelong Birmingham City supporter Tore Andre Flo has added his voice to the growing chorus of optimism as he believes that with the right mindset and momentum, the Blues could be on course for back-to-back promotions.

    "It seems like if you get yourself going, things take care of themselves in a way," he told BestBettingSites.co.uk. "Momentum is just as important as big signings in the EFL. Games come so quickly, you just feel like you're winning every time. That's what they need to get into. There’s no reason for Birmingham to feel like a ‘newly promoted’ side this coming season. Just keep that momentum going, and go for it."

    WHAT NEXT FOR BIRMINGHAM?

    It’s been over a decade since Birmingham last featured in the Premier League, but the mood around St Andrew’s has shifted dramatically. What once felt like a distant dream is now beginning to take the shape of a tangible goal. Should they bring in quality reinforcements to their squad in the summer and maintain their standards, Birmingham could soon find themselves back among English football’s elite.
