Birmingham faced relegation from the Championship despite registering a 1-0 win over Norwich City in the final game of the season.

With the Blues getting relegated, an all-American showdown awaits in the English third tier as they are set to face Ryan Reynolds and Rob McElhenney's Wrexham next season. The Red Dragons finished second in League Two and gained consecutive promotions.
DID YOU KNOW?
Very few fans would have imagined that Birmingham would be going down when Manchester United legend Wayne Rooney was handed over charge in October. They were sixth in the league when the former England striker took over but found themselves languishing in the 20th spot after managing to win just twice in 15 matches before he was finally relieved of his duties after just 83 days.
