Barry Fry: I love Birmingham City - but I keep rejecting their bids

[@paulturner487]

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again and again! My favourite time as a Bluenose!! Barry Fry, a top , top man!! A true football man, a true Blue 💙 God bless you Barry and your family 💙💙

[@paulstephenson1086]

Shows you have no class or what it takes for us to be a top club. Sure Barry fry became a blue nose but he was tin pot with a tinpot club mentality and this was the worst period in our history. You know nothing

[@steviedent1967]

To say that tells me you weren't there. Read the rest of the comments from those that were. It wasn't about being a "top club", we were enjoying sharing great days in a tin pot world. This trait is the embodiment of being a Bluenose. Glory days

[@steveo4400]

@@paulstephenson1086 People's favourite eras are personal to them. I loved this era and I don't care if you didn't, you're not dictating what our personal experiences with this club are. What is also interesting is that your favourite Blues player ever is Paul Tait. When did he play? remind me? You're a joker.

Loved it at St Andrews watching Barry run up and down the pitch when we scored. Thanks for the happy memories Barry and you are looking so well!!

We did indeed… true story… about a week later, I kicked my football over next doors fence… was about to run around to get it as per usual, then suddenly this huge man was looking at me towering over the fence… “here you go mate” he said, threw my ball back… and I suddenly realised it was Big Kevin Francis!!! Turns out he was my neighbours best mate!!! Great guy, got me loads of autographs on serviettes from a players wedding… brilliant memories 🙌🏻💙

[@whitesnake329]

Was Kevin Francis the guy that fell over by the touch line , before coming on! legend!

Love this bloke. By far the most enjoyable time to be a bluenose (until now). His autobiography is a brilliant read too. Legend and sure of a brilliant welcome on Saturday.

[@bobnewey2233]

You've got to love him, what a guy. I wish Brian and Alex could get him on here with some of his funny anecdotes from his time with us (and before). I once went to see him at St Andrew in one of those 'an evening with' events and I was in tears with some his funny recollections. I guess some of his memories wouldn't be suitable for a public forum, but I'm sure there'd be plenty enough anyway.

Barry was the manager a year or so after I started supporting Blues, and I just remember how exciting the football was, loving all the players he brought in and really falling in love with The Blues… Paul Tait, Louie Donowa, Steve Claridge, Ian Bennett… great players… thanks for the memories Baz!!

[@Korvintage64]

One of football's great, great characters, as a player & manager, which are sadly are becoming fewer & far between. A superb man manager, though not sure he was the greatest of tacticians. He'll forever be welcome at Birmingham & so he should be. He's done a great a job at Peterborough in various roles, I do hope he's truly appreciated there.

[@LDBCFC]

What a man!

get him on the pitch pre game blues legend kro 🔵⚪️👍🏻

[@rafd3593]

Barry is still doing a great job for Posh - a real football man. Will have enjoyed yesterday’s match. Although a Posh fan, I had the opportunity to see Brum play Forest when Barry was manager. He didn’t do as well as manager of Posh, but kept the club afloat by second mortgaging his home. This was especially tough as he had a large family.

What a legend, been a blue nose since 1968 and these were mad times, never seen anyone sign as many non league players to Birmingham! Loved it when he used to run along the touch line when we scored , no wonder he had two heart attacks. ! Many years ago they did a documentary on him and it was pure class , at the end he said to his wife in bed 'fancy a bit' !😂
