England's Blues brothers - how the Bellinghams helped save Birmingham

It is six years since Jude Bellingham played his final game for Birmingham City, and three years since younger brother Jobe wore the club's shirt for the last time. While Jude, 23, is establishing himself as a footballing great at European greats Real Madrid following a spell at Borussia Dortmund, Jobe, 21, is continuing his football education at his brother's former club in Germany after two seasons with Sunderland. Their memories, however, live on at St Andrew's, such was the impact the boyhood Birmingham fans made in the Championship.
On match days supporters stop and pose for photographs in front of Jude's mural outside the ground. Fans still turn up to matches wearing Bellingham shirts. "They both had a real connection with fans," Craig Courtney, from the Tilton Talk fan podcast, told BBC Sport.
"Fans loved the fact they both cared. "They wore their hearts on their sleeves and helped Birmingham when we were fighting relegation.
