think they are destined for league one now. i really do, what is happening with midlands football. we can laugh but really its so mediocre these days, the northwest and london rule supreme.
Its not just football where that's true.
London is the Nations capitol, while Manchester is seen as the capitol of the North. No investment has come into the Midlands for years, we don't have the infrastructure of other places, and now we are reaping what has been sown by years of poor management by councils et al. Manchester will soon overtake Birmingham as the UK's second city, while there are others which have stood up to the recession better. We all know what West Brom's like, while Merry Hill has killed Dudley and is having the same effect on Wolverhampton. And Walsall's getting worse.
Sad to hear about Blues, but these things happen, especially when clubs spend stupid money, put players on wages they can't afford, and end up is a worse position than when they started (see also: Portsmouth, Sheffield Wednesday, QPR).
