I suppose we need something to take our minds off what’s going on in the boardroom.
And the FA Cup 4th Round draw is probably the ideal way to do that, because let’s face it, we could all do with a good laugh given the horrors that could be about to unfold at St Andrew’s.
What makes the whole thing funnier is that the FA have stated that should the inevitable happen, that all the ‘home’ privileges would go to Coventry, meaning that Blues fans would be housed in the away end, wear the away kit, possibly even the away dressing room and so on. Although you’d hope that hopefully the two clubs would come to some sort of compromise to make things a lot smoother.
Jude Bellingham perhaps summed up the feelings fans everywhere when the draws were announced, and all it took was one emoji. Something that brought a lot of joy to these Birmingham City fans, who I suspect are looking forward to the chaos that this potential draw could bring.
We’ll have to sit in the away end at our own stadium!!! Only Blues

Are you happy with the cup draw?
Yes
No
It really would be a shame if Coventry didn’t make it through, because I am genuinely fascinated, as I’m sure are others, to know what the logistics behind a Coventry v Birmingham game would be.
