‘God help us...’ - Birmingham City fans have their say on that Laurence Bassini interview

In case you missed it, prospective Birmingham City owner Laurence Bassini delivered one of the most incredible interviews you will ever hear on Friday morning.

He told Talksport that he had ‘massive news’ to share in regards to a Blues takeover and proceeded to spend 15 minutes ranting inbetween stating that he does actually expect to be new owner within the next one or two weeks.

A transcript of the important stuff can be read here for those that didn’t happen to catch it but for the many unfortunate ones that did - the reaction has been as expected.

One normal day of Birmingham City, that’s all fans ask for.

Here’s some of the Twitter response so far:

@talkdants: ‘Just listened back to the Bassini #bcfc @talkSPORT interview…reminds me of the Jasper Carrott sketch that starts “Has anyone seen my camel?????!!!!!” I despair’

@conorkeane21: ‘“I’m going to stay as long as it takes.” God help us... #bcfc’

@almajir: ‘ThisBassini interview is incredible. Absolutely incredible.’

@jonathan_bcfc: ‘How has Bassini just called out Simon Jordan for a boxing match with his trainer being Fury’

@mjshrimper: ‘Bassini’s rehearsal for EFL OADT interview… Called Keith Harris a liar. Challenged Simon Jordan to a fight & accused him of “being responsible” for someone’s death. Has £235m in assets & “shops on Oxford St.” Will buy Birmingham & win the league.’

@alex4northfield: ‘Just caught up with Bassini’s TalksSport interview. Wow. I am genuinely speechless. If it wasn’t clear enough already, there’s absolutely no way this man should be anywhere near our club. #bcfc’

@NatJPeters: ‘I didn’t think anything could be worse than Laurence Bassini‘s last talkSPORT interview, but Laurence Bassini has today proven just how wrong a man can be #bcfc’

@_DavePowell: ‘If Laurence Bassini passes a fit and proper persons test then you have to ask what is the actual point of having it?’

@elMickador: ‘Not a Birmingham fan, but have sympathy with ones that are if he’s about to become their owner. The Man isn’t very well.’

@tf0711: ‘Offering Simon Jordan a £1million boxing match and Tyson Fury is going to train him was radio gold! Why can’t being a Birmingham fan be nice and simple???? Bassini is an absolute plant pot.’
