Birmingham Mail forum member Tilton1875 came up with this jolly little ditty in mockery of the sudden decline in Villa's season.

"There was a team called Villa"
"They were two-nil up on Stoke"
"They let in 2 late goals and became a national joke"
"They thought they'd break the top four"
"They never stood a chance"
"Now their bubbles burst and we're doing a promotion dance"

"ah ha ha ha ha ha ha ha"

The feel-good factor is back in the Blues camp, hear all the reaction:

IN MY 28 years covering football for BRMB in this area, I have learned that a disunited club will fail when it comes to chasing success and glory.

From the outside it looks like Blues are at war with their manager Alex McLeish following Karren Brady's comments and David Sullivan's TV interview.

Without doubt, Karren's comments in her Sun column were inappropriate, although she did explain in yesterday's Birmingham Mail that the column had been edited and gave a different twist what she was saying.

ON the occasions I have met Karren Brady she has always struck me as a very intelligent girl with a genuine passion and understanding of football.

Which is why I am baffled by her recent comments undermining the job Alex McLeish is trying to do in returning Birmingham City to the Premier League.

As managing director at St Andrew's, Karren has the right to say whatever she wants about how the club is run and I don't begrudge her that.

I think Birmingham City's constant comeback kid Franck Queudrue deserves a special mention for the mental strength he has shown this season.
Returning to pre-season training overweight, unwanted and having already been labelled 'a pile of rubbish' by your club's co-owner would be enough to break most men.
At that point it would have been easy for Queudrue to go through the motions with the reserves, continue to pick up his pay cheque with the hope of putting up enough of a sulk to engineer a move away.
However funtime Franckie has proven that he is made of tougher stuff. His flamboyant French approach and silly hair may mean he can offer be seen as a figure of fun but there's no denying that he is the consumate professional.
Queudrue has faced the axe on several occasions this season and it's obvious that Alex McLeish has never viewed him as his first-choice left-back.
Despite this, Queudrue has constantly knuckled down and always produced a performance when called upon, including the odd goal.
His determination hasn't gone unnoticed by the St Andrew's faithful and that has turned him into something of a cult figure in B9.
Well done Franck and if only more footballers had your approach to life.
