They know he hasn't died right? Blues retire number 22 after Jude Bellingham's move to Dortmund Is this the most tinpot thing a club has done all season? Discuss.
He deserved it. Been in the class since 10year old until he retired, won them the Champions league, FA Cup, Club world Cup, EPL, Carling cup amongst other trophies. Rejected so many big clubs to stay with Birmingham. He is a Legend!!
Was just about to post this. Maybe if the fee saved the club from ruin or something but even that is a stretch.
It's up there with the most tin-pot things of all time. Ryan Giggs came through the youth side and won 13 league titles, yet United use #11 today.
