The noses aren't gonna like it, all the fans are from Birmingham. Love it.
Not sure i like the over emphasis on the one game though, seems a bit small time.  The season overall is worth celebrating though. All in all a good watch.
Is it part of a series?

Positives no Dan (who) Bardell.
Negatives don’t like the blinders music.

I love the fact that they used the Peaky Blinders theme as the noses would hate that.Stephen Knight is desperate to write the noses into everything he does about Birmingham. There's nothing historically to connect them to PB and he did the same with the recent "This Town" series. He tried to make  a whole genre of music called Ska and Two Tone about the Zulus. It was nothing to do with them apart from a few skinheads who followed them at that time. Two Tone/ Ska was much more of a Coventry thing.

They have no history, so they try to invent one. It's all as real as the 65,000 seater stadium. Delusions in their own heads.

Yep.

One for the haters, he posted on Twitter after scoring against Norwich. Shame it was his only one all season.

What an absolutely fantastic video.  Needs to be shown to any player that wants to play for us.  Our identity, our passion, our club.

The Zulus didn’t even exist until 84.

As I said in another thread, Peaky Blinders was based on a Birmingham gang led by Billy Kimber, who lived in Summer Lane. Knight was so desperate not to include Aston that he portrayed Kimber as a cockney and an enemy of the Brummies. The only Brummie in the first series was Benjamin Zephaniah, a proud Villa fan.

All true. As for Stephen Knight it's such a pity that the BBC have finally woke up to the fact that the city actually does have a lot of interesting stories to tell and he's the effing storyteller. He's undoubtedly a talented writer but his insistence on shoehorning the noses in at every opportunity stops me from watching cos it's irritating and laughable. Next up will probably be a story about the great train robbery where a load of noses from Solihull famously held up a Royal Mail train and used the money to overthrow Fidel Castro and they all now own half of Cuba.

I dread him getting hold of The Accidental Gangster books about the Fewtrells (from Aston) and him turning them into a bunch of loveable Small Heath rogues who saw off the Krays in the name of Birmingham City.
