I too was thinking about this one the other day.
Sir Graham and BFR looking dead smart and Pendrey looking like he's come straight from a labouring job somewhere and has stopped off for a couple of pints on the way.
How happy is Steve Sims to be standing next to Carlton Palmer? Gary Shaw looking like he's about to kick off!😂

I was only thinking about this pic the other day. What was the reason behind it?

The centenary of Birmingham becoming a city? Think it was around then.

Good shout. Vaguely remember a big fuss being made over that.

Didn't we plug the rags in a friendly to mark it too?

Can't picture the Villa player behind the Albion player in between Hunt and Bremner.
