* Birmingham made their debut in European competition in 1955/56 but their first appearance in the Inter-Cities Fairs Cup competition certainly didn't last a season. That tournament continued in 1956/57 and this season, 1957/58, when they finally lost to Barcelona in the semis.

** Birmingham's Inter-Cities Fairs Cup semi-final replay against Barcelona was played in Switzerland at the St Jacob Stadium in Basle.

 


"The first half was end-to-end stuff. In contrast, in this second half it's been one end to the other."
Lou Macari
