The Sunday Mercury, as even-handed as ever.

so only 12000 brummies live in bham then I hate the rag cockney run shit

[Legion]

Bluenoses are brainless.

[The Man With A Stick]

Bluenoses are... anonymous by their absence.

[olaftab]

Ahaa well they can both live together happy ever after.

[Rudy Can't Fail]

'Thick Brummies are Bluenoses' would have been a more fitting campaign headline.

[phantom limb]

Well if two footballers who I've never heard of and are probably shit say it, then it must be true.

[Charlie8182]

Brummies are bostin'.

[LeeB]

If the idea is to promote the city, then all they need to do is put "only a few..." in front.

A disclaimer, if you like.

[Des Little]

They can fcuk themselves - the rag of a newspaper and those two never-will-be's.

[Andy_Lochhead_in_the_air]

This could catch on in other places.

All Barcelonans are Espanyol fans.
All Glaswegians are Queens Park fans.
All Merseysiders are Tranmere fans.
All Hamburgers are St Pauli fans.
 

[Leighton]

Brummies are paranoid.

[PeterWithe]

Ahh bless, I'd really think both are pathetic if it really warranted any thought whatsoever. 4 million targetbase and they struggle to get 13k through the gate.

[Chris Harte]

As a born and bread Brummie I'd suggest that the title of that campaign is actually quite offensive. Or at least I would if I hadn't given up caring what this gash publication passes off as news.

[peter w]

I think the campaign is spot on. And, as a born and bred Brummie, unlike the rest of you wankers from the Shires, I now follow the only true team from Birmingham.

SOTV.

up the Blues.

KRO.

Why does it feel like only a few people are listening?

Sod it. Back to the Shires then.

The Sunday Mercury is a beacon of small-timeness.
