Thanks to a takeover by a wealthy American consortium, led by billionaire Tom Wagner and NFL icon Tom Brady, a new era dawns for the long-suffering Birmingham City Football Club.

After an unexpected relegation, the pressure is on Tom Brady and Tom Wagner to prove their worth to the notoriously vocal Birmingham City fans. Appointing an exciting young coach and spending record sums on the playing squad and stadium, Blues now have a target on their back in League One and face a huge early test in the shape of Wrexham - in front of a host of VIP guests.

Chris Davies and his Birmingham City side are under pressure following a poor run of results, not least from expectant Blues fans; Jay Stansfield makes a poignant return to Exeter City a club with deep, personal ties to his family.

As Birmingham City navigate a demanding winter schedule, Tom Brady's expertise in elite performance becomes crucial. The sporting weekend promises significant events on both sides of the Atlantic.

Trophies and records are in sight as the end of the 2024/25 season approaches.
