Birmingham City must continue this wave of positive momentum

Tom Wagner has issued a passionate message to Birmingham City supporters after the club extended their unbeaten start to the League One campaign with a 1-0 victory over Huddersfield Town.

Blues came into the game off the back of six successive League One victories having put the likes of Wrexham, Rotherham United and most recently Peterborough United to the sword, and were fancied by many to stretch their winning run to seven for the first time since December 1946.

They and Huddersfield were both relegated from the Championship in May and harbour the same ambitions of an instant return to the second tier.

But, Alfie May’s second-half goal saw Chris Davies’ side eventually see off Michael Duff’s men, having once again dominated their opponents at St Andrew’s @ Knighthead Park.

Of course, the spotlight in the third tier is well and truly on Birmingham given their reputation and transfer activity, but that hasn’t deterred the inside focus as they extended their early season lead at the top of the table.

The feeling around Blues right now is one of extreme positivity and optimism, which has been reflected by their record of seven victories and one draw to start the campaign off – the club’s longest unbeaten streak at the start of a season since October 1990.

Despite suffering an initial setback in their long-term ambitions for the club, the likes of Wagner, Tom Brady and CEO Garry Cook could hardly do more at this point to further endear themselves to supporters, with the chairman once again issuing a passionate verdict on his Instagram account after the midweek success.
