Sounds good.

Sounds good.

Brady, have you A, B, come on.

Episode two. There's a bit of fuck Rex
in there. Good.

We did fuck him this year pretty good.

Oh!

It's not turning well.

Oh!

Birmingham,

they are all over Rex. And you're
obviously with Rex. Birmingham City.

Birmingham. Birmingham. You know what we
did? We got through it. We kicked their

asses here.

You did.

This year has been so much fun.

Tuning in to all these games and
watching us win.

And these

guys, they're doing it, not me.

They're the competitors.

I'm no longer in the arena.

I can convey things to people that are
in the fight and be more of a general.

I've had my career. Now I get to be
involved in a different way.

Can Blues keep this run going?

I tell the players all the time, it's
your fucking life.

You get to look back and figure out
whether you were proud of it or not. Not

Brave St.

Andrew and its 12 apostles.

What's your dream come into view?

Frozen in a moment.

with my hand above my head.

Never let them tell you we were anything
but glue.

Here's a Stansfield for you.

How are you doing? Oh, no, no, no, no,
no, no, no. That's all you paid up.

Grumpy's kicked man alive.

Yeah,

you know it's true.

They always do. They don't buy anything
for themselves.

Shower gels, hairspray, toothbrushes,
bone chargers.

Are you using hairspray?

Hairspray? Am I allowed to say?

They're like children.

in the nicest possible way, but they
don't do a lot for themselves.

Intense.

Intense.

It's almost the best manager we've ever
had already, just because of the way

he's brought the fans together and the
team together.

The supporters and the fans at the end
of the game, I've never seen a team

they're coming over and they're giving
it all to the fans and we're responding

to it. That's unity, which is a big
thing for Birmingham as well, with the

multiculturalism. Everything we stand
for as a city is now coming into the

football club.

We've won seven on the bounce now, and
everyone will go to war for him already.

If we win eight on the bounce, that'll
be the first time since 1946.

And then after that, I don't know the
exact record, but I think nine in a row

would be complete history for the club.

Imagine we do nine in a row.

I

think we've been

riding high.

It's been a great season, but we've got
to continue to push forward.

Now there's specifics that you need in
order to move up to the championship,

I think we had a good process for
finding good coaches, and that

settled on Chris.

Chris had just something slightly
different that happened to fit with what

were looking for, and I know that Tom
and I were instantly convinced that he

the right person.

It's a big club with big ambition. I
knew that we were going to be...

one of, if not the best team in the
league.

Okay.

All right, today is our fucking
opportunity, yeah? Our opportunity. So

you go and grab it. You go and grab it.
Not with fucking one hand, with both

hands. Go and take it. We don't take a
backwards step out there.

Okay, we fight, we fucking work, we run,
but we play, we play, we play a

different game for them. So we play.

Bravery, get the ball and fucking pass
the ball and play. Dominate this game.

Okay, today is our fucking time to climb
our own mountain, yeah? So make sure we

do it together as a team. We climb this
fucking mountain and we make our fucking

mark.

Well, Birmingham City have wasted no
time at the start of this season

their dominance in League One. Top of
the table, five points clear of second

place Wrexham. And a win today against
13th place Charlton will put Chris

Davies' side in a strong position in the
race for a place back in the

championship.

There is such a high level of
expectation.

Naturally, it's an emotional game.

There's so much better than this.
There's flashpoints and there's moments

game that... Fucking... I do get
emotional about.

There is a boundary there.

And if I cross over it, it's becoming
detrimental to myself.

Fucking embarrassing little fuck. Why
have you not gone that way?

it's a slippery slope if you start lens
fans kind of drop

Fucking dog shit. It's like the old
Blues this is, isn't it?

Who gives a fucking what's up in the
league? We're getting fucking beat.

Fucking hell. For fuck's sake.

And there's the full -time whistle.

Birmingham City's first bump in the road
then.

Blues' first defeat of the season ending
that... Seven -game winning streak.

A lot of the time as a football fan,
you're helpless.

You sing at them, you shout at them, you
swear at them. And that emotion comes

out sometimes and you can't help it.

Absolutely fucking doing a job on us.

As fans, we're impatient.

We think it's our turn, it's our time.

And so that impatience can lead to
frustration.

It's not just chants, it's fans coming
over barriers.

And so there is that element of hardness
about who the fans are and where

they're from.

How many times are they going to fucking
do this shit?

Yeah,

we're not tough, are we, really?

an element of fans that are.

Full name's Keith Batchelor, and some
people call me Cuddles.

And why Cuddles?

Probably because I was cuddly or
something, I don't know. And it just

when I was growing up in the area and
going down the footy.

When I was about 14, 15, and I used to
watch Trevor Francis.

That's when I got hooked on blues.

I wanted to be part of the football, and
then when I started going down on my

own with my own friends, I weren't
accepted because of my colour.

In the 70s and 80s, every club seemed to
develop a hooligan gang.

A lot of them had associations with
right -wing politics and were

exclusively white.

Going to the blues like 88, for a young
lad like me, young Indian lad, it's not

normal. I can't remember seeing anyone
with a turban as a kid.

at the blues not even just the turban i
don't remember seeing any asians hardly

i took it out of football and we've just
done our own little crowds you know

what i mean you had all the racist
people down there but what done it for

when our brother william he's only about
like 13 he was at the game and they

went go out your black bastard go on off
throwing coins at him and that's

probably why i got involved in a bit of
the violence and that really

It wasn't that I was a violent person,
but you had to fight to survive.

You know what I mean? So I started
rallying everybody up.

And then that's when the change started,
kind of thing, where we started turning

it against racist elements.

The Birmingham hooligan element were
black and white and Asian. It was

different.

We went to Man City in 1982.

And we were in the ground, and one of
the lads started a song, and it was, Get

them down, you Zulu warriors.

And we all started singing it.

Then after the game, we got into a bit
of a tear -up, and somebody just

Zulu!

And it just stuck, and the rest is
history.

Police say the gang, the Zulu Warriors,
have been responsible for a reign of

terror for the last three years.

The phone was red.

That's what it's all about.

A lot of people join the Zulu because
they're under a banner

and they're protected as well.

You have to go with the gang to feel
safe and then you become part of it

After they'd assaulted somebody, they
would just either leave the calling card

on them or stick them onto their
clothing.

Zulu Warriors was a lion with a spear
through it.

You've just been visited by the Zulu
Warriors.

The Zulu Warriors engage in or become a
group that was performing some sort of

noble cause to address racism in
football.

I just don't buy that.

I don't buy it for a second.

You talk to any lad back in them days,
everybody's done naughty stuff.

You don't glorify things, but you look
at the Peaky Blinders, they were

murderers and carried guns.

Or we were with a bunch of lads who had
a tear up down the game.

Obviously at Birmingham, we had the Zulu
movement. It was classed as a hooligan

movement, but it really...

It was making it possible for blacks and
South Asians to be able to come to the

football. It made people feel safe.

And it sort of paved the way. I think
Birmingham paved the way, really, I

believe. Just to have that inclusivity,
you know what I mean?

The thing about football in this
country, it's got such deep cultural,

roots that it means a lot to a city or a
town or a place.

It means that here. So all I've ever
wanted is to make them proud.

And the Charlton game was for me to
start learning about how to lose,

After losing to Charlton, Blues are
still top of the league, but their lead

Wrexham is now just two points.

Chris Davies knows he can't afford any
more performances like this if he wants

to keep the Birmingham fans on site.

I think there's just one way that I know
how to do things the right way. And if

that process isn't right...

Not only for now, but for the longer
term, then we need to fix it and get it

right.

You know, if you go into every game
thinking we have to win, win, win,

promotion, promotion, you can very
quickly take your focus away from what's

important.

Even when I watch these games from a
distance, I watch them and then I'll

message to Chris.

Tom is driven, sort of unrelenting in
terms of mindset.

I mean, I got a message from him just
then.

If you're doing the wrong stuff and
you're losing, there's a reason why.

If you're doing the right stuff and
you're losing, chances are the tide's

to turn because the other team's
processes aren't as good as yours.

You've got to have resilience and mental
toughness to succeed.

Well, Birmingham City haven't dropped
points at home since the opening day of

the season. They're chasing a sixth
straight win here at St Andrews. Blues

expecting a win tonight as well against
lowly Northampton Town.

Well, Northampton, they're fighting for
everything. They're not giving Blues

players any time or space to play their
game.

Danger here is Pinnock.

It's one -one.

And Birmingham take back.

Disastrous ending.

I try and be positive and I try and find
a positive in everything and there

wasn't any positives that night.

Birmingham City have dropped points
again. This result knocks them off top

in the league. A draw at home to
Northampton, not what the Blues fans

see. I don't look at the table
personally. I just don't think it's

Well, Birmingham City have now fallen
second place in League One.

Two points of drift of Wickham at the
top, and only two clear of Wrexham.

What are we doing, right? What's the
message that's being delivered?

We knew that there would be, at some
point in time, a challenging period in

season. There's so much better than
this.

Every game I've heard all the shouts and
everything and the abuse that some of

the players have got and the things that
are said, you know, money doesn't buy

you success.

Well, Blues arrive at Crowell Meadow
having to navigate our first testing

of the season after two league games
without the win.

You sense Chris Davis will demand a
response against bottom side Shrewsbury

Town.

The deflection takes it through to
Bloxham.

Shrewsbury go further ahead.

They may be in trouble at the foot of
the table, but they're beating

City, who are going out of the top two
here.

Most Blues fans look at it and just
think, Blues, innit?

What are we doing here? It's just a wake
-up call, really.

Another defeat for Birmingham City and a
massive blow for Chris Davies, whose

team have now fallen to fourth in League
One. Blues have no wins in their last

three. Out of the automatic promotion
places, five points adrift of leaders

Wickham.

You had this great

run early in the season where you won a
lot of games in a row and then you have

a flump.

And it's like, what happened? You know,
there's a chink in the armor.

You've got to, like, identify it and
then work to solve it.

The emotion is there and passion is
there.

I try to stay calm, but displaying that
emotion, there is a limit to it spilling

over and being unhelpful.

Drop your bibs, lad. Drop your bibs.

Get that camera off, Dale.

We've got two points out of nine.

We lost to Shrewsbury, who are bottom of
the league. There was a sort of form

that genuinely, if it continues, you're
in a bit of trouble.

It's never...

a straight line it's always going to be
adversity injuries bad calls unlucky

moments bad bounces when you're in the
big battles it's always about resilience

and mental toughness if my wife wasn't
understanding and it would be

really hard because i am i'm out far too
much i work far too much i'm late

nights i'm always on my laptop i'm
staying away hotels preparing for things

there isn't that what you would class as
a work -life balance.

Life is hard for everybody.

We bounce out of bed trying to figure it
out, or we don't.

And there's a price to success and
there's a price to failure.

They both come at a cost.

So, going to pick the girls up from
school, 3 .15, so I'm on time today.

normally pick them up, I must say. It's
normally...

Danny that picks them up. And, yeah,
then we'll go and get something to eat

they've picked their brother up.

We always said when I became a manager
that we wanted to go on the journey

together and all experience it together
because it's an adventure.

How was your day, Sienna? Good.

Good. What about you, Ruby? How was your
day?

It's not just a job to me. It's every
morning, afternoon, evening. I'm usually

working seven days a week.

How was your day?

Yeah, was it good?

Yeah, we did our science test.

Oh.

My family are used to it, you're not
there really, and obviously I had young

children all the way, from babies all
the way through, so they kind of accept

and just hope I'm there when I can be.
We're going out for dinner.

Woo -hoo!

Danny is my wife and she's my best
friend, really. She's so selfless, you

she's someone that...

just lets me pursue and has let me
pursue my dreams at the expense of her

pursuing her dreams in some ways, and
she's sacrificed a lot.

Yay!

I'm very good.

My wife would be the person that I
suppose I would talk to about, you know,

I'm feeling. So that's probably how I
cope with things.

Kids are always looking down on me,
aren't they? Yeah, so the children have

taken a video.

No, what is it, a photo you've got, see,
on your phone of Dad's head.

Yeah, they always comment on how bald
I'm going, so I've got my... From where

they sit, they highlight it pretty early
on. You can see your bald patch is

getting bigger. Dad, you're going bald!

I couldn't imagine him doing anything.

He's always been like, this is where
we're going, let's go, sort of thing.

That's just who he is.

They see me getting a bit angry
sometimes and get a little bit worried.

reassured them that it won't always be
like that.

I'm not sorry.

Nor am I.

Sorry, Sienna.

I am sorry.

Do it with your hand.

Are you guys going to have lunch with
us?

Yeah. Good.

What's the plan for today? I can't
believe you guys are off school. This is

What do you mean BS? We're letting you
guys off.

You guys are plenty rested than me.

Okay. You know, every day you wake up
and you've got choices, and I think for

the first time I've had more choices to
make, you know, because it wasn't on

that same schedule in football season.

It was freedom to choose what I did, but
there was a schedule.

And that schedule was an intense
schedule.

So I think now it's like, I don't know,
I have a lot more perspective now.

You know, where you invest your time,
you see a lot of benefits.

I'm just really speaking up where I'm
better than everyone else.

How do we set these guys up for success?

And we're still not 100 % there.

Like, I think we can definitely take it
to the next level with them.

If I want to convey a message to Chris,
I'll pass it along or just send along my

insight or have a phone call. Because I
think it's important for a coach to have

people to talk to as well.

They don't want to be left on an island.

And I think that that's part of what the
responsibility that I can play and my

role in the club can be, is a confidant
and someone who's always maybe

encouraging or pushing or questioning.

Just the other day, Tom sent me a great
video about transactional leadership and

transformational leadership.

It was about an American football coach
who was a college coach, Nick Saban. I

think you have a greater chance to lose
your team when you're transactional as a

leader. In other words, everything was
about winning or losing.

It's got me thinking a little bit about
me personally.

I had to change into being a
transformational leader, somebody that

could emulate, you know, cared about the
players for their benefit, not my

benefit.

With Chris, there's never a satisfaction
with where we're at. He always wants to

make improvements, and I think that's
what you need out of that position. I

don't think people achieve a lot by
being left to their own devices.

Tom feels like he's just trying to help
and give some sort of support.

And that great video is an example of
something that I used and looked into a

little bit more once he'd sent it
through. And that is the kind of

that I'll be speaking to him about today
in the meeting.

What is one of the greatest feats of all
time?

Okay, so Mount Everest, the highest
point on earth, yeah?

So the story goes that Sir Edmund
Hillary...

and Tenzing Norgay were the first two to
reach the summit. So that summit is the

highest point on Earth.

If you can get up there, then you're as
high as any human can possibly get with

your feet on the floor. They called it
the ultimate test of human endurance and

determination. So what can we take from
this? Imagine what they were going

through and how much they had to. Talk
about fucking digging in. These fucking

people, human beings, have fucking dug
deep inside themselves to achieve

something that people are talking about
forever. So imagine the conditions. The

conditions wouldn't have been good.

He from New Zealand, he from Nepal,
different lives, probably different

privileges. Yeah, you're all different.
We come together to form a team, a team

where we respect each other.

Everyone's had their own fucking
struggle. Now it's time for us to

it, grab success.

I'd rather be successful, and if I'm
going to play sports, I'd rather win

lose. Left, left, right, right.

So the question is, what are you willing
to do to win?

Are you willing to work hard every day?

Are you willing to be more disciplined
and do the training when it's hard?

You know, I didn't know for me, when the
alarm would go off or I'd wake up, I'd

bounce out of bed and be like, here we
go, let's get to work.

Art Gaffer has the best way of dealing
with all things. I think if things

going well, he knows how to put us back
in our place.

That's sort of a credit to his character
and the way he delivers himself.

You

get

to the point now in the season, Wickham,
Wrexham, Huddersfield and co,

they're all pushing us. We should really
be...

A few points clear.

It's that point as well where you're
like, is the same thing going to happen

again? This next game coming up is huge.

Birmingham City are on a tricky run of
form, which has seen them slip to fourth

place. Two points out of nine makes the
next game for Blues against Exeter City

a massive match.

And there's an added significance for
Jay Stansfield, with it being against

club that both he and his father, Adam,
played for.

Hello?

Hello? On the call.

Yeah, I'm just leaving, so are you
ready?

You're leaving now? Yeah.

All right, perfect. All right, do that.
Bye, bye.

What are you going to do? Two of these?

Three? It must be lovely to have Taylor
at the club. Tell us a little bit about

what he does.

Yeah, so my brother Taylor, he's the kit
man. He loves his job. He's sort of one

of them that's always loved football and
wanted to be involved.

When the opportunity come...

For him to be able to become a kit man,
I thought it was a perfect chance to get

him in and see if he'd enjoy it.

Jay got Taylor the job when he was there
on loan.

So he was like, come up, Taylor, I've
got you a job. And I was like, no,

don't leave me, Taylor.

Put him in it, yeah?

Yeah, put him in that.

From a young age, my whole family have
obviously been around football.

I've not got a glove.

And I'm not really wearing the right
stuff to be playing golf, but a few

won't hurt.

My dad was a professional footballer, so
I've sort of been brought up into a

football family.

All my dad's videos is him either
running down the line, beating somebody,

working hard to get the ball back, and
it's basically the same as how Jay

I'm definitely the better finisher.

With the goals I've seen.

As a footballer, he's just like his dad.
He even runs like his dad.

They have a lot of similarities in the
way they play.

They both run with a pinky finger out.

He was very fast.

Very passionate.

The same sort of type of goes that Jade
scored, Adam scored.

This is Adam Stansfield!

Do you mind talking a little bit about
your dad?

Yeah, so I lost my dad when I was seven.

He was still on the books at Exeter
then, and he was like a club legend

at that point.

Not only did the city turn out to honour
Adam Stansfield, but the footballing

world was here to mark the much -popular
and much -loved striker.

His first love, the thing that he cries
about everything, was the love that he

shared with Marie and Jay and Taylor and
Cody.

I can remember there was a date in March
when he just basically didn't feel very

well. He had really bad stomach cramps
and he just wasn't himself.

And we finally made him go to the
hospital.

And he had loads of tests, and then
obviously he got diagnosed with bowel

cancer.

Taylor would have been five and Jay was
seven.

All right.

I never took him to the hospital, so I
don't think they would have even known,

really, that Adam was poorly.

Taylor!

Do what?

Do three things.

Well, that's got to be the furthest
you've ever hit, no? Yeah.

You're not beating that, no, are you?

That could be the best one today.

Straight down the middle.

He went into Exeter Hospital, and the
moment he left our house where we were

living, I knew he wasn't going to come
back. It was just... You could just tell

he just lost everything.

My friend from Exeter at the time, she
called me and she said, I'm coming down

to see you. You can leave Adam for five
minutes.

Just come and have a quick drink with
me.

So I said to Adam, I'm going just for a
quick drink with Louise.

And obviously he wasn't awake, but I
just thought I would just mention it to

him. And we left the hospital. She came
and picked me up. And I didn't even get

to the pub, which would have been about
five minutes away.

And I had a phone call from Adam's mum
saying he passed away.

So he knew I wasn't, I wouldn't have
wanted to be there in a, yeah, I don't

think I could have coped with it. So I
look at it as it was in a positive thing

that I went to the pub and he knew that
I wasn't there. So, and that's when he

passed away.

Appreciate watching the videos and
stuff.

Because that's, like, the only sort of,
like, reference I have to what he was

like as a person and stuff.

I've never sat down and really spoke to
him.

I've got the legs.

I don't think they ever saw me get
upset.

They cope with it so well, so we just
kept on going without him around.

We never really spoke much about it as a
family, so, like, she's had to put a

grey face on and...

Let us do what we've dreamed of doing,
but not only that, bring up three lads

that Dad would be proud of.

When he passed away, they opened up the
stands in Exeter, which is the Adam

Stansfield stand.

People went and laid flowers and they
had books that people could write in.

Well,

there is a distinct chill in the Devon
air tonight as Birmingham City face

Exeter City. It's all about reaction
here for Blues.

This is a must -win after this run of
three games without success, which has

seen them slip to fourth spot, an
unacceptable league position for

American ownership.

It's going to be a nice evening,
probably an emotional one and a bit

the family.

Taylor's going to be the kit man,
obviously I'm going to be playing.

So I'm just looking forward to trying to
make him proud.

and make the whole family proud.

I still went to games even though he was
no longer there. It just felt like

home. It felt like a place that was safe
and where Adam should have been even

though he wasn't there.

It just felt really comforting to be at
the ground.

The side we sit, we just look at the
sands and sometimes I just sit there and

just stare at it and just think, oh
yeah, think about all the good times and

obviously all the amazing times that we
had together and at the club and

everything else.

Good ball in. Oh, that looked like
handball by Niskanen.

It's given.

Come on, Birmingham City have a penalty.

Come on.

Jay and Adam look alike as well.

From behind, they look like the same
person.

To see Jay on the pitch, it was just
sort of like Adam was back playing again

the pitch.

And Jay Stansfield scores against his
hometown club to wrap up three valuable

points for Chris Davis and Birmingham
City.

When you score a goal, the hardest thing
is to not celebrate.

I'm not going to celebrate, I'm not
going to celebrate.

I knew how much that club meant to my
family and meant to my dad.

I think it's 13 years now.

Everyone's trying to make him proud in
the family, but that's probably my main

drive, just to make sure that I've done
everything I can to make him proud.

Massive win for Chris Davies, whose
Birmingham City team badly needed three

points to get them back in the promotion
chase.

With Jay, that game held obviously
massive significance.

He's still young. To go and walk into a
stadium that was going to give that

level of emotion would have been
difficult for anyone of any age.

Now that I'm a professional footballer
and I knew that my dad wanted me to do

that, it was a great feeling. And sort
of having them last conversations with

him when I was younger, the main thing
was he wanted me to work hard and

my dreams.

just to be able to remember that and as
a family know that i've achieved that i

made him proud is a special feeling you
know i think

we're always looking for
transformational people to come into our

think when you have the emotional
connection and you look how the

can happen well you are transforming
lives if we're all here to make a

difference like what's the goal like
maybe leave it a little bit better than

when we got here

That exit of the game was one of the
most memorable games of my personal

as a manager here.

There's that emotional side to the game
which drives people on. It's more than

just X's and O's. It's a feeling. It's a
feeling about the game and how I want

the team to play, you know?

Really, really good performance, OK?
