List of Birmingham City F.C. players

Birmingham City Football Club, an English association football club based in the city of Birmingham, was founded in 1875 under the name of Small Heath Alliance. They first entered the FA Cup in the 1881–82 season. When nationally organised league football in England began, the club, by then called simply Small Heath F.C., was a founder member of the Football Alliance, formed the year after the Football League. In 1892, the Football League decided to form a Second Division, inviting the members of the Football Alliance to join; as one of the less successful members, Small Heath were placed in the Second Division. Since that time the club's first team has competed in numerous nationally and internationally organised competitions, and all players who have played in 100 or more such matches are listed below.

For the current Birmingham City first-team squad, see current squad.

Maik Taylor, the club's most capped international player

Each player's details include the duration of his Birmingham career, his typical playing position while with the club, and the number of games played and goals scored in domestic league matches and in all senior competitive matches. Where applicable, the list also includes the national team for which the player was selected, and the number of senior international caps he won.

Introduction

As of the date specified below, more than 200 men had made 100 or more appearances in senior competitive matches for Birmingham. Frank Womack holds the club record for league appearances, having played 491 matches between 1908 and 1928, closely followed by Gil Merrick with 485 between 1946 and 1959. If all senior competitions are included, Merrick has 551, followed by Womack's 515 which is the record for an outfield player. The goalscoring record is held by Joe Bradford, with 249 league goals, and 267 in total, scored between 1920 and 1935. No other player comes close: Trevor Francis is the nearest with 119 league goals, 133 in total, scored between 1970 and 1979. Bradford holds the record for league goals scored in a top-flight season with 29 in the 1927–28 First Division.[1] A club record for transfer fee received was set when Ché Adams joined Southampton in 2019; officially undisclosed, it was reported as £15 million.[2] Forty years earlier, Trevor Francis became the first player transferred between British clubs for a £1 million fee,[3] and in 1896, future England international forward Fred Wheldon joined league champions Aston Villa for terms reportedly "higher than have ever been concluded": a fee of £350 plus the proceeds of a friendly match between the clubs.[4] Caesar Jenkyns was the first man capped by his country while a Birmingham (then Small Heath) player when he represented Wales against Ireland in February 1892.[5] The player with most senior international caps while at the club is Maik Taylor with 58 for Northern Ireland,[6] and Harry Hibbs has most for England, with 25.[5]

Bob McRoberts, Billy Beer, George Liddell, Merrick, Garry Pendrey, Francis and Gary Rowett all went on to manage the team.[7] Others took part in significant matches in club history. Billy Ollis, Jenkyns, Ted Devey, Jack Hallam, Wheldon and Tommy Hands appeared in Small Heath's first Football League match in 1892.[8] Eight men listed were part of Birmingham's pioneering venture into club football in Europe in the 1955–58 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup,[lower-alpha 1] and ten played on the losing side in the 1956 FA Cup final[lower-alpha 2] (an eleventh, Roy Warhurst, missed the match through injury).[12] In more recent times, Paul Tait scored the first golden goal to decide a Wembley cup final, against Carlisle United in the 1995 Football League Trophy.[13] Geoff Horsfield scored the extra-time equaliser that took the 2002 First Division play-off final into a shootout; Paul Devlin and Stan Lazaridis converted their spot-kicks as Birmingham were promoted to the Premier League for the first time.[14] Seven men listed here, including captain Stephen Carr and goalscorer Nikola Žigić, took the field as Birmingham won the 2011 League Cup; another two were unused substitutes.[lower-alpha 3] Just three years later, the first headed goal of full-back Paul Caddis's career, 93 minutes into the final match of the season, saved the team from relegation to the third tier of English football.[16]

Footnotes
  1. The eight team members were Gil Merrick, Jack Badham, Ken Green, Johnny Watts, Noel Kinsey, Eddy Brown, Peter Murphy and Alex Govan.[9] Birmingham City became the first English club team to take part in European competition when they played their first group game in the 1955–58 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup on 16 May 1956, a goalless draw away at Internazionale. The competition lasted over three English seasons with the final not played until 1958. The London XI, a representative side made up of players from several London clubs, were the first English team when they played their first group game in 1955.[10]
  2. The ten were Merrick, Jeff Hall, Green, Trevor Smith, Len Boyd, Gordon Astall, Kinsey, Boyd, Murphy and Govan.[11]
  3. The seven who took the field were Stephen Carr, Liam Ridgewell, Sebastian Larsson, Craig Gardner, Keith Fahey, Nikola Žigić and Cameron Jerome; the two unused were Maik Taylor and David Murphy.[15]
  4. Player who later managed the club.[7]
  5. Green was a member of England's squad for the 1954 World Cup but did not take the field.[21]
  6. Player statistics exclude three games played in the aborted 1939–40 Football League season.[22]
  7. Matthews omits Frain from the starting eleven for the 30 January 1996 Anglo-Italian Cup match against West Bromwich Albion.[23]
  8. Matthews attributes Colin Withers' 23 November 1960 Inter-Cities Fairs Cup appearance against KB to Johnny Schofield, who had fractured his skull some days before.[28]
  9. Matthews attributes Greg Farrell's appearance against Everton on 4 October 1963 to Hellawell, who was unavailable due to influenza.[30]
  10. Matthews attributes Harry Wilcox's 18 February 1899 appearance against New Brighton Tower to McRoberts, who had broken a collarbone the previous week.[34]
  11. Reliable sources differ widely on the scorers in Small Heath's 10–1 win at home to Blackpool on 2 March 1901.[35] This article uses the English National Football Archive (ENFA)'s version – McMillan 5, Aston 2, Archer, McRoberts, and Wharton – as likely the result of more recent research.[36]
  12. Matthews attributes Winston Foster's 20 April 1962 appearance against Everton to Brian Farmer, who had left the club.[42] He also attributes Brian Sharples' 18 September 1965 appearance against Portsmouth to the injured Foster.[43] Foster's totals are correct, albeit coincidentally, while Farmer should have one fewer league appearance than listed by Matthews.
  13. Matthews attributes the only first-team appearance made by Fred Jones, against Stoke City on 1 September 1934, to Wilson Jones, who had not yet joined the club.[44][45]

Speculation has been rife in football circles as to the price paid by Aston Villa for the transfer of Wheldon, the Small Heath inside left. It turns out that the terms are higher than have ever been concluded, it being officially stated at the annual meeting of the Small Heath club in Birmingham on Friday evening that the sum guaranteed was £350, with a prospect of a still further amount conditional on the proceeds of a match to be played in the autumn.
