Liker so many football clubs that started around the late 19th century, Birmingham City's origins lie in the church. The Blues came to be under the name of Small Heath Alliance in 1875, formed by a group of cricketers from Holy Church in Bordesley Green. The club changed its name from Small Heath Alliance in 1905, adopting the name of Birmingham City Football Club.

In 1947 Seed takes his team to a successive FA Cup final, but this time leaves with the trophy. Charlton beat Burnley 1-0 thanks to a Chris Duffy goal. Captain Don Welsh lifts the FA Cup at Wembley before 98,215 fans.
