We aren't the second city.Not sure if Im missing something here? London 7 million plus, Brum just under a million, Liverpool just over a hundred thousand less than Birmingham is 3rd.Those figures look very inaccurate.Lazy internet searchyeah your miles out, boundary lines can differ though London / Greater London etc , but yeah you've googled the wrong numbers.

In reality London is around 8m. Birmingham 1.2m That's purely city boundaries before you start counting the actual conurbation sizes or metro area.Nah, that's Greater London. Birmingham is biggest city.

"The City" is the ancient and current financial heart of the capital. The city of London consists of around 39 boroughs which has a population of around 8 million. That's the accepted definition of the city of London. Greater London extends out roughly to the M25 and has a population of nearly 14 millions. The last census puts the city of Birmingham not including the wider conurbation at around 1.25 million double the size of any other provincial city in the UK and is universally accepted as the UK's Second City. I apologise for inadvertently starting this debate when I pointed out how crap our transport network is and how that's holding back the development of our club.

Greater London is a county, like Greater Manchester. Including all the bits outside of the actual city is like saying "France has a population of nearly one hundred million... if you include Belgium and the Netherlands".Birmingham is the most populous city.
