No offense taken mate. I'm assuming you're a Derby fan? Anyway it seemed alright for Liverpool when they won it last season. I think barring United and City, every club in England would be delighted to win it.

Ah I do have a soft spot for the Baggies. However, my last post was just a slight dig at Birmingham's massive population ratio to top class football teams. Don't take it personally.

Could be applied to the Midlands as a whole in fairness, however in recent years if there is one city that's brought success to the Midlands, it would be Birmingham. I know what you're saying though. The North West has a plethora of football clubs as does Greater London but there's not really much in Greater Birmingham.
