Also with these youngster, no niggly fouls, vicious tackles, diving or arguing with the Ref.

[2015]

Full time 1-0 City win

[PHILINFRANCE]

Full Time. 1-0.

[Super]

Well done Boys

[Jerseybean]

Well played boys, a very nice time to score the winner finishes SU 0 BC 1

[RoystonFoote'snephew]

Won it against the run of play second half but that makes up for last year's loss to Brum so I'll take that. Owers was superb in breaking up play and I thought Zac Bell had a fine game. 

[grifty]

Great, was sneakily ‘watching’ the game in the office, went for a poo and we score!

[BCFC Rich]

We scored about 5 seconds after  I managed to start watching. I'm not claiming Edward's doesn't deserve some credit for the goal, but I think it's clear who was really responsible. 

[REDOXO]

Ok! So who is the other semi/who have we got in the final?

Ipswich v Coventry 

I’m waiting for City v Ipswich final with Mark Ashton trying to high five fans in the front row running round the pitch…

Thanks. Fella. Will it be a neutral venue?

[JackofromSanJavier]

What is the outcome for the successful side in the final?  I know nothing of this so i'm unsure if it is a promotion, kudos or curly wurlys.  

[Midlands Robin]

Good game City and a cracking time to score the winner. Let's hope we can win the final. 

Another generation of city youth to blend into the first team.

Think it often comes down to who can just make their stadium available some of the time, ie teams who want to relay their pitches asap may not be able to. If both can there will be some sort of procedure. 

[Lew-T]

I literally only watched about 5 minutes of that game. But in those 5 minutes, all of the attacks were coming from Idehen.

He’s not short of confidence is he?

Because we have a category 2 academy I don't think promotion is possible and thus it is just kudos (and presumably a trophy!)

Ipswich and Coventry both cat2 so no promotions this season if thats the case.

Birmingham went up last season - cat1.

[James54De]

So, if we win the final do we get promoted. If so, what league in to?

Ignore me. Question already answered.

He did well when he came on against Huddersfield I thought.

Certainly has something about him. I'm surprised that a L1 or L2 club didn't pick him up after the left Grimsby.

His agent must have done well to get him a trial at Brimingham after that.

He really does have a coolness and no little class. Just one mistake today when he let a ball run under his foot but we were sharp to defend it so it didn't come to anything.

That’s because Birmingham applied for and got given Cat 1 status

You don't get given Cat 1 status. It's quite a commitment financially and a number of criteria have to be fulfilled or you'll lose it.

Wot, no curly wurlys?

Quite a large difference in outlay isn't it?

Given Birmingham's financial issues, and a ground that is half shut for safety issues; i'm surprised they would the money to get that application over the line.

Looks like they're just going to lose Bellingham's brother Jobe , for next to nothing as well. He played them (16 years of age) at the weekend.

You still have to apply for it after proving you can meet the criteria. Cat 1 was supposed to be gold standard, the criteria is going to be upped to boot some teams back to cat 2 as well
