Goldhawk Posted November 4, 2024 Report Share Posted November 4, 2024 Birmingham need some help for good of league and sport as a whole. Premiership needs as many clubs as possible to get sport back on upward trajectory again. id say 10 is the number we need to be credible league 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
