Birmingham City 1963 Football League Cup Final Retro Shirt In 1962ndash63, while avoiding relegation to the second division only by winning two of their last three matches,nbspBirmingham Citynbspshowed their best form in reaching the final of the new Football League Cup competition. The opponents, local rivals Aston Villa, were clear pre match favourites, having won their most recent league meeting 4ndash0. But in the home leg Birmingham served up a treat of attacking football, controlling the gamenbspassurance and came out comfortable 3ndash1 winners, with two goals from Ken Leeknbsp and one from Jimmy Bloomfield. Inspired by captain Trevor Smith, who man marked Bobby Thomson out of the game in the away leg, a solid defensive performance saw Birmingham lift their only major trophy to date.Product Specification Short sleeve V neck Club crest to left chest Machine washable 100% cotton
