St. Andrew's @ Knighthead Park — Attraction in Birmingham

I gave a ticket to a boy for his 11th birthday. He was overjoyed. We bought burgers and chips, played game, on computers went in the family bar, talked to friendly helpful security staff, had his face painted, took whacky photos and after two hours went to watch the match. Lovely afternoon out and a very happy birthday boy. I also got some complimentary tickets for distribution and the rest of us also had a good time. blues versus Notts Forrest was interesting the banter, chanting was so different to years ago. After the match I watched the crowd walking into town. I walked on the other side and stopped off at Camp Hill Seventh Day Church where I prayed for safe return home for everyone after an exciting day. I haven't been to a football match since I watched celebrities at Help Harry Help Others match. Previous to that I took an Aston Villa fan there for a Job fair.he wasn't pleased with the fact that it was blues grounds but loved the building and hospitality. That didn't stop him punching the railings outside the grounds in his anger at not being invited to tour Aston Villa. A few weeks later he got his wish and we went to Aston Villa. The young man was estatic. Ps. One of the guys with me yesterday was also an Aston Villa Fan. He also had complimentary tickets given to him at Chinese New Year Celebrations last week. We made him zip up his jacket so we couldn't see the Villa T shirt. Another guy who should have been with us to celebrate his birthday changed his mind so no doubt I'd be going to another match in the near future I think his father played for blues years ago. So after cursing blues for making me miss two birthday parties because I was on a bus whilst all the fans crossed the road and was really uncomfortable when I got home to change so I rested and woke up after 10pm for a 7pm event. I'd helped to set the tables at the venue but my friends enjoyed it without me. Maybe I ought to hire the place and hold my birthday...

I recently had the opportunity to visit St Andrews football stadium on a non-match day, and it provided a unique perspective on the home of Birmingham City Football Club. While I couldn't experience the electric atmosphere of a live game, the visit had its own merits.

The stadium itself is an impressive structure, and even without the bustling crowds, it exudes a sense of history and tradition. The exterior of St Andrews is quite iconic, with the club's colors proudly displayed, making it easy to identify.

Inside the stadium, I had the chance to explore areas that are typically off-limits during matches. The tour allowed me to visit the changing rooms, the tunnel leading onto the pitch, and even the VIP hospitality areas. It was fascinating to see where the players prepare and the route they take onto the field.

The tour guides were knowledgeable and passionate about the club's history, sharing anecdotes and insights that added depth to the experience. They also provided an opportunity to learn about the club's community involvement and its impact beyond the pitch.

One highlight of the visit was sitting in the stands, imagining the roar of the crowd and the excitement of a game day. It made me appreciate the importance of the fans in creating the vibrant atmosphere of a live match.

In summary, visiting St Andrews football stadium on a non-match day offered a different perspective on the club and its facilities. While it may lack the energy of a game, it's a great way to gain insight into the history and inner workings of Birmingham City FC. Whether you're a die-hard fan or simply interested in football culture, it's a visit worth...

I went to the Blues v Albion friendly pre season and hadn't been to the ground for more than a year before it where I sat in the Gill Merrick Lower

I'm struggling with health problems both physically and mentally right now but found the ground a very safe environment to be in and was accompanied by a dear friend from work

We sat in the lower cop

Both of us are about 5' 10" to 5' 11" and the leg room was poor

This in the main has changed since the rebuild and the leg space reduction is very noticeable

I suffer with severe arthritis and have metalised hips so the couple of inches per row pinched upon redevelopment have made a real impact on my experience

The guy sat next to me moved after we had a brief but friendly chat as I was exceeding my space and knicking some of his to make myself comfortable. He was about 6' 3" so needed all the space he could get too.

My previous season ticket seat has been taken up by the safe standing area in the Tilton Road area

I may try that upon my next visit

The catering on the day was fine as the attendance was very low just about 8000 i'd say so I hope that is being addressed by the club for when we get full houses as they simply wouldn't cope

Knighthead are doing an amazing job to ressurect my beloved club thank you

These are just my humble opinions on my last visit

Hope to be back again soon, but not in the lower Kip sadly. My body just can't take the space restrictions

KRO and thank you Knighthead for the wonderful work so far.

Undoing the problems created by the previous regime will take some considerable time but true Bluenoses appreciate and understand that.

KRO forever true to...
