Gold Looking For Birmingham Roll

David Gold is looking for a role that he can play at Birmingham City as he does not want to walk away from the club for good.

Gold was replaced by Vico Hui when Carson Yeung`s group took over control of the club, Gold had been offered a roll as Vice Chairman but turned it down, looking to remain in some other capacity.

He told the Birmingham Mail: ‘I went to the game on Saturday pretty much under my own steam.

‘I had an amicable chat with Carson Yeung’s new team and I have not given up hope of staying on in some capacity.

‘I am available to help if I can be of any help. I don’t think anybody can question my affection for the club.

‘Whether anything happens, I don’t know. Matters are up in the air and my situation is absolutely clear.

‘I was surprised, really, with the announcement the other week and I’m just waiting for the final outcome.

‘Carson has only just arrived. I spoke to [vice-chairman executive and finance] Peter Pannu and [vice-chairman] Sammy Yu, and they made it clear at the beginning that they wanted me to stay.

‘So really I’m waiting for the final word. Maybe Carson will clear it all up and make it known what can or can’t be.’
