Keep Talking
Birmingham City released a statement on Wednesday via the matchday programme and bcfc.com from Peter Pannu. The statement was like a “state of the club” address; reflections on the previous year and what’s happening next. Having taken a couple of days to digest it, reflect on it and take other’s viewpoints on it I wanted to offer you my thoughts.

BCFC, BIH and Finances: The OP Perspective
Long term readers of this blog will know that one thing I have tried to do is to work out exactly what is happening with regards to Birmingham City, and to it’s parent company Birmingham International Holdings Ltd. I have tried consistently to find information that is researched and provable to pass on to Birmingham City fans to stop some of the hyperbole and outright lies that are out there. I’ve put this article together to give you an idea of where I’ve got to; what we know for sure and what is still unknown.

What Now?
Yesterday’s news that Carson will not stand trial until the end of November 2012 hasn’t gone down well with many Blues fans – which is understandable. Reading through the comments left on here the big question on many fan’s lips is what happens now. Here’s my take on the situation.

Where’s Pannu
One question that seems to pop up a lot on some messageboards is the whereabouts of acting-chairman of Blues, Peter Pannu. With there being a lot of scurrilous rumour around, I thought I’d keep an eye out for any news on what he’s doing.

Why I’m Involved In Trying To Set Up A Supporters Trust
You may have seen in this morning’s Birmingham Mail a report about the formation of a Supporters Trust for Birmingham City. As a “key instigator”, I thought I would share with you my personal reasons and opinions on the whole idea.

What’s Going On?
I’ve been trying to make sense of what the hell is going on at Blues recently – with stories in the Daily Mirror of financial meltdown at Blues; stories from China of Carson being let off a HK$9.5mil loan, and Peter Pannu apparently refusing to speak to Tom Ross because of an article on this website. With this in mind I’ve had a bit of a think about it all, and I thought I’d share my thoughts with you.

Further Player Sales?
It’s a three sentence story in the Mirror, it’s by James Nursey and it’s about how Blues are going to have to sell players again. Yes, despite there being some twelve and half weeks until the new transfer window opens, the bad vibes have started again. Is it because it’s the international break and thus a slow news week, or is it really time to panic at Blues again?

Don’t Believe The Hype
One of the hardest things about writing articles for this blog is writing about something not happening. If there is something reported in the media that’s going on, I can link to it and cite my sources; however it’s an impossibility to prove that something isn’t happening because of a lack of information. With this in mind, please bear with me with this article.

The Stuart Parnaby Affair
It’s been quite the busy weekend for me personally, and so it wasn’t until I’d finally returned home late on Saturday evening that I heard the news with regards to the non-signing of Stuart Parnaby. There’s been quite a lot said on the net about how the situation played out, and I thought I should add my two-pennorth for good measure.

Pannu: You say it best when you say nothing at all.
With the news of the imminent return to these shores by Peter Pannu, there has been much discussion on Twitter and Facebook about the idea of Mr Pannu answering fan’s questions on Tom Ross’s radio show. I’ve been mulling over the whole idea for a couple of days, and I can’t see how it would work.
