We would like to extend our Birthday Wishes to a Birmingham City Hero, Happy birthday to Christophe Dugarry, who turns 42 today.

The Frenchman joined on loan from Bordeaux in 2003 and played a monumental part in keeping Birmingham City in the Premier League. He scored 5 goals in 15 league appearances and cemented his place in the hearts of the Blue faithful.

His unstoppable form from April to the end of the season saw Blues win 4 games in a row effectively saving them from the drop. Goals against Sunderland, Charlton, Southampton and Middlesbrough all contributed to victories.
