BLUES suffered Wembley heartbreak at the hands of Peterborough United as they weren't able to complete the dream double after they became League One champions on Saturday as a result of Wrexham’s failure to beat Wigan Athletic.

Blues dominated the day at Wembley.. but only off field

Here are some things that might have gone unnoticed on the day that Birmingham took over Wembley...

Blues’ complete dominance off the field

From our position in the Black Sheep Coffee house at the bottom of Wembley Way we witnessed the sheer scale of Blues’ domination off the field.

Blues fans stepped off the tube at Wembley Park in their droves to outnumber their Peterborough counterparts. There were waves and waves of Blues shirts, retro and new.

You can’t help but feel that Blues would have filled Wembley themselves if their allocation allowed for it. In addition to the 43,000-plus inside the stadium, there were some who had just made their way down to soak up the atmosphere.

‘Campeones’

Tom Wagner led the Knighthead cohort into the Blues-filled fan park at around 11.15am and revved up supporters on the microphone before promising a special guest would soon arrive.
