Blues have certainly picked up form in their past two St. Andrew's @ Knighthead Park outings
Birmingham City owner Tom Wagner has issued his latest message of support towards Chris Davies' side as they recorded back-to-back 4-0 victories at St. Andrew's @ Knighthead Park against an in-form Millwall on Tuesday night.
Alex Neil's side were just one of three Championship sides yet to taste defeat on their travels prior to the midweek encounter in B9, but that particular record was convincingly put to the sword as goals from Seung-ho Paik, Demarai Gray, Alex Cochrane and Jay Stansfield saw Blues rise up to ninth ahead of Wednesday's fixtures.
Cochrane's goal, in particular, has generated plenty of reactions from Bluenoses on social media, with the ever-reliable left-back netting his first home goal for Birmingham in what was his 66th appearance for the club through a spectacular volley in front of the Tilton to make it 3-0 shortly after half-time.
However, it's fair to say that the main talking point amongst supporters and outsiders is that Davies' men appear to be building momentum for the first time in many weeks, having previously come under scrutiny after a patchy run of form failed to justify the expectations, which the Blues boss previously labelled as unrealistic, that many had placed on the club after a raft of high-profile transfer moves following a record-breaking promotion season in League One.
Some would argue - rightly or wrongly - that Wagner hasn't helped such predicaments by outlining a dream of back-to-back promotions into the Premier League before the Championship season began in August.
But, based off the past two performances, Davies seems to have finally settled on an XI which offers a blend of attacking threat and a robustness in both defence and midfield, resulting in successive victories for the first time since mid-August.

Ever since completing his takeover in this part of the West Midlands back in July 2023, the American has been extremely transparent with supporters, players, managers and staff in many ways - none more so than on social media.
Wagner is always amongst the first to react to developments at St. Andrew's, particularly if they are ones which aid his dream of eventually seeing the club return to the Premier League for the first time since May 2011.
After a run of mixed form before and after the recent international break, there was hope that Blues could put a rocky patch behind them with fixtures against Portsmouth and Millwall, as well as their upcoming clash with third-place Middlesbrough on Saturday.
Davies' side posted their biggest win since April against Pompey with a 4-0 scoreline over the weekend, and certainly backed that up against a Lions side who were unbeaten in five before their trip to the Second City on Tuesday night.
Unsurprisingly, a buzz and expectation appears to be back at St. Andrew's as a result, with Wagner issuing his own passionate message of support to the players and management team.
Taking to Instagram - as he so often does - the frontman of Knighthead Capital Management said: "Back-to-back... Keep Right On."

A few weeks ago, Blues supporters would have potentially dreaded the thought of facing off against a Middlesbrough side who had enjoyed a record-breaking start of their own to the Championship season.
Yet whilst Rob Edwards' side remain in the cluster of sides who have set the early-season pace, results and performance levels have taken a minor hit at the Riverside Stadium, whilst the 42-year-old continues to be linked with the Wolves vacancy after Vitor Pereira's recent dismissal.
As such, Blues will be coming into Saturday's clash full of confidence that they can continue an unbeaten streak heading into the international break and force their way into the play-off picture for good.
