    Reaction Required! Cardiff Reality Check, Luis Vázquez Test & John Murtough Verdict
    2026/10/25
    Blues fell back down to earth with a bump at Cardiff City. Their five-game unbeaten run came to an end, alongside a run of more than five hours of football without conceding a goal. In Episode 60, Colin Tattum and Paul Tait break down what went wrong in South Wales, why Blues turned in arguably their worst performance of the season, and how Chris Davies must engineer an immediate reaction. Probably only James Beadle—who produced a brilliant penalty save—emerged with any credit from a dismal afternoon in the Welsh rain. With August Priske sidelined, Luis Vázquez's role comes under the spotlight ahead of a treacherous Saturday lunchtime trip to Sincil Bank to face Lincoln City and their 6ft 8in talisman Mikkel Ladefoged. Plus, Tatts and Taity deliver their comprehensive verdict on the appointment of former Manchester United executive John Murtough as Blues' new Director of Football. What will his dynamic with Chris Davies look like, is his remit across the Men's, Women's, and Academy setups too broad, and how does he fill the vacuum left by recent backroom departures? ⚽ DREAM BLUES SIX-A-SIDE COMPETITION: In partnership with Davisons Law, we want YOUR dream Birmingham City six-a-side team!

  • Flying High! QPR Statement Win, Millar's Magic & Cardiff Preview

    Flying High! QPR Statement Win, Millar's Magic & Cardiff Preview
    2026/10/19
    It’s been a massive week for Birmingham City—three games, three wins, eight goals scored, and absolutely zero conceded! Colin Tattum and Paul Tait are back to dissect the statement 3-0 victory over QPR that has Blues "Flying High" and sitting just two points off the automatic promotion places. The boys analyse Liam Millar's devastating two-goal burst and his deceptive pace, with Taity declaring that Blues now boast the best wide options in the entire Championship. They also praise the growing influence of Christoph Klarer, comparing his totemic, uncompromising leadership style to Blues legend Liam Daish. We also get a brilliant trip down memory lane as Taity reveals the hilarious story behind his own "Taity Raver" chant after the fans call for a new song for midfield maestro Tomoki Iwata! Ahead of the weekend, attention switches to the tricky trip to Cardiff City. With Blues only winning one of their last 11 visits to the Welsh capital, the lads discuss why the team must guard against complacency and highlight the threats of Jack Moylan and former Blues academy talent Calum Scanlon. Special Feature: We also hear from Dan McShane, a conveyancer at the Davisons Law Edgbaston office, who shares his favourite 90s Blues memory involving Darren Purse and Stan Collymore!

  • On The Up! Chris Davies' Masterplan, Priske's Form & Preston Win

    On The Up! Chris Davies' Masterplan, Priske's Form & Preston Win
    2026/10/14
    It’s Episode 58 of Forever Blues, and Colin Tattum and Paul Tait are buzzing as Blues go "On The Up" into the fringes of the top two following back-to-back victories over West Bromwich Albion and Preston North End! The boys dissect the contrasting tactical styles Blues used to secure the wins and clean sheets. Tatts highlights the patient, possession-heavy dismantling of Preston (boasting 76% possession and 41 touches in the box), while Taity praises the physical, set-piece dominance that overpowered Albion in the local derby. They dive deep into Chris Davies' masterplan for the side, discussing his demand that Blues become a genuine "top team" rather than an Average Joe that just floats by. The lads also give massive flowers to the back four—with Christoph Klarer, Phil Neumann, and Alex Cochrane earning special praise for stepping up their levels this season. Elsewhere, the guys discuss the blossoming form of August Priske as he hits five goals for the season, and debate whether Jay Stansfield's evolution into a deeper, all-round player is costing him in front of goal. Finally, Tatts officially retracts his praise for Albion's Jimmy-Jay Morgan and "sends him back," while breaking the news that Blues stalwart Tomoki Iwata is likely heading back to Japan at the end of the season.
