Blues Looking to Future

Posted on June 11, 2015 by Rob Wildey

Blues manager Gary Rowett is hoping to complete his first two summer signings in the coming days. Nottingham Forest’s Robert Tesche is the subject of a £500,000 bid from Blues after a successful loan spell at St. Andrew’s last season and Swindon goalkeeper Wes Foderingham is in line to replace Darren Randolph, who moved to West Ham last week.

The Gary Rowett Revolution

The Gary Rowett revolution is slowly but surely undertaking it’s summer overhaul. The Blues boss has gone on record to say that the budget ‘will not be lower than last season’ and that he feels he has adequate resource in which to continue the club’s upward spiral. Judging by Rowett’s signings last season, I would trust him to make the right calls again. The signings were shrewd and every single one played a part in turning the fortunes around.

Not Spec-tacular but Jonathan Earns his keep at Birmingham City

Posted on May 6, 2015 by Rob Wildey

Versatility can be a useful attribute for a footballer, especially one with limited ability. And having a player that’s a decent enough performer in four positions is a real bonus for a manager. Jonathan Spector has been offered a new deal at Blues and my assumption is that Gary Rowett sees his versatile nature as a key brush in the make-up of his squad.
