nevthelodgemoorowl Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Trevor Smith married a Walkley lass, born in Brierly Hill was with Birmingham City to 1965 represented England 15 times up to 1960. He took a keen interest in me as he had knowledge that would only enlighten me in years to come. That was because of my bad leg I would never play professional football. He visited me in hospital on several occasions and after Birmingham games at Hillsborough would meet up with dad and me in the Walkley WMC. I always had a smile on my face at Walkley WMC on the nights we met for in successive seasons 60/61 to 64/65 we won 2-0; 5-1; 5-0; 2-1 and 5-2. He would always encourage me and have a little gift. After his career ended he went into the licensing trade. Trevor died of cancer on 9th August 2003. I will never forget his Kindness RIP Trevor Smith Birmingham City, Walsall and England. As per Pauli very entertaining WAWAW Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
edmontonowl Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Head to Head • The Owls have kept three consecutive Boxing Day clean sheets (W2 D1), this after conceding in each of the previous five. • Birmingham have avoided defeat in their last three away games on Boxing Day, winning two (D1). • The Blues won at Hillsborough on December 26th back in 2001, courtesy of a goal from Geoff Horsfield. • Only Alan Judge (7) has more assists this season than Ross Wallace (6). • Birmingham have attempted the fewest passes in the Championship (7344). Excellent OMDT but.......................................... how do the stattos come up with "attempted the fewest passes"..................

VictoryBell Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Brilliabt OP - Jimmy Cliff! His Goddam greatest song and sooooooooo appropriate! I remember that cup tie in 69 at Hillsborough - and the 3-3 draw when Tricky Trev (still in a nappy) whooped it up for them. I think I posted on another thread about The Scariest Mistake Ever when me and two chums ended up on their kop at St Andrew's (it was like being SOE agents in Nazi-held France in late 1940) and nearly gave the game away when Wednesday scored. Only managed to keep me gob shut by cramming it with biscuits!! How we survived, I will never know. Merry Christmas, everyone! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Holmowl Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Great one Pauli and so educational. Bit like wikipedia but with real facts. 2 0 with Fessi and Hooper continuing their runs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BarnOwl55 Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 3-0 Wednesday Nuhiu hat trick Take note The last time I predicted a Nuhiu hat trick in a 3-0 win, I got it wrong The game was Arsenal in the cup and Nuhiu never had a sniff So knowing my luck it will probably be Wallace, Joao and Hutchinson again. Loving this idea! What a Christms present that would be. I think you'll be spot on this time. Big Dave comes on after 80 mins to break the 0-0 deadlock and scores the perfect hat-trick ( one with his left, one with his right and a last minute penalty which he heads into the bottom right corner after slipping on his run up and sliding into the ball with his head). Cue wild dancing on the Kop and a Boxing Day memory that rivals the great day in 1979. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Captain Sl-OWL-ly Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Great again Pauli infact it was brilliant ! You can save the Jasper Carrot bit along with his twin St Trevor the Franciscan monk, both were apparently well funky on their mopeds back in the day... I'm wanting a win today, we're back at home and nothing less should be sought... Big Dave and Hooper to start please... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Owl.1867 Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 That stat about them attempting the fewest passes worries me. Suggests they're going to be a big, strong, direct team and that's exactly the kind of team we struggle against. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Holmowl Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 I remember one of the most comfortable matches ever, was a 5-0 or 5-1 mid eighties v Birmingham. One of those too rare days where you enjoy all 90 minutes in the firm knowledge you will win easily. Could be my memory but sure David Seaman was in their goal too! Im sticking with 2-1 today but quietly I am confident could be plenty better. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just flown back into Brize Norton from 3 months in Cyprus. Stuck radio on in the car to hear Lingard smashing in one of four. Got a text off our lass saying she had just won a sofa bed on eBay and could I pick it up from Birmingham! Turned out it was just outside St Andrews and collection coincided with the gleeful masses of Brum supporters pouring out following our 4-1 drubbing. Got stuck in the match day traffic with a sofa half in and half out of me boot and a big owls sticker on the window. Instant magnet for abuse as soon a I was static in the traffic. There were burger wrappers wedged between me new sofa cushions and Coke cans in me boot when I got home. What a crap day! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rogerwyldesmullet Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Trevor Francis Bob Latchford Tarantini Dougharry and Jaques Maghoma. Not scared of any of em ... But Sharon Osbourne, Jasper Carrot and the Peaky Blinders might well tek the East Bank today. They have no scruples. PS great OMT Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cambs Owl Posted December 26, 2015 Share Posted December 26, 2015 Excellent OMDT. Need a win today with a tough game against Middlesborough coming up. Let's try to keep a clean sheet and attack from the kick off rather that our usual slow starts. UTO. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
