    Thirty minutes after the game a lone figure strolls in front of the distant Gil Merrick Stand. It’s been a pleasure to watch Jude Bellingham in a @BCFC shirt. @BlackYellow have a gem heading their way.

    A seventh signing in for @BCFC with Austrian centre-back Christophe Klarer arriving from Bundesliga-2 side Darmstadt. Again the fee is undisclosed with Klarer agreeing a three-year deal with a further year’s option.

    This fella’s done incredibly well - 17 points from eight games, safety in the Championship. Says he’s desperate to have the @BCFC fans back at St Andrew’s next season. Difference maker.

    The much-rumoured #bcfc move for Cardiff keeper Neil Etheridge is close to being done - he’s due for a medical today.

    A circuit thanking the stewards, the staff, even saying goodbye to those of us who covered his only @BCFC senior season. Almost an hour on Jude finally heads back to the changing rooms.

    Brandon Khela thrilled with his first @BCFC goal, and admitting he couldn’t resist the trademark Bellingham celebration first seen at The Valley in September 2019. He’s been with Blues since he was 7 - special moment.

    Alen Halilovic has passed his medical at #bcfc and terms have been agreed for the 24-year old Croatian. Aitor Karanka sees him as a good fit for the 10 role.

    As reveals go, this takes some beating - @BCFC have their man, Jay Stansfield is back!!

    Subject to a medical, it would seem that #bcfc have indeed won the scrap to sign #wba forward Jonathan Leko.

    Former Spanish international Mikel San Jose is due for a medical today at @BCFC. The 31-year old defensive midfielder/centre half is a free agent after leaving Athletic Bilbao this summer.

    Pep Clotet says English football has taught him about good manners so he offered his hand to Garry Monk on behalf of himself and @BCFC.

    Great to see Olympic boxing champion Galal Yafai bringing his gold medal to St Andrew’s. The #bcfc fan tells the crowd he wants to win a world title in Birmingham.
