In the second period, they weren’t much better as their promotion hopes now seem more distant than ever.As a result, many Birmingham fans are calling for Davies to be sacked via X, with the Blues currently nowhere near the playoff spots.Get Davies gone In the Summer, he will never get us promoted— Kieran Lynch (@KieranBcfc89) March 2, 2026 Davies is a dead man walking now. Question is do they leave him in til the summer or get rid now?! #BCFC— Elliot (@Zu1u1875) March 2, 2026 Going to be interesting to see whether these players want Davies to keep his job because it’s in their hands.

Anything lower than 10th (maybe higher) and I reckon he’s gone. #BCFC— Jaspal #MLSEOut (@jesbojb) March 2, 2026 Very simple, we’ve got a good squad of players but Davies and his tactics just aren’t going to be good enough over a 46 game championship season. If we genuinely want to be challenging for promotion over the next few seasons, he can’t be the man to take us forward. #BCFC— Zigic1875 (@Seb1875) March 2, 2026 Think personally davies days are numbered now enough backing not enough results. #BCFC— Shay (@Shay98912393) March 2, 2026 Sack Davies now.— 𝐌𝐗 (@user1625547) March 2, 2026 Don’t give Davies until the end of the season, sack him now and give the new bloke time to work with this squad instead of throwing him in the deep end in August. #BCFC— Dixie (@Dixie_Dean_) March 2, 2026 Read more: Aston Villa fans can’t believe what Matt Targett has just done vs Birmingham City: ‘He’s redeemed himself’Do Birmingham City still have a chance of reaching the Championship playoffs?Unfortunately for Birmingham City fans, their Championship playoff hopes now appear to be over.In 11 matches, the Blues will have to reduce a gap of eight points and overtake six sides.Opta on 2 March does not believe this is possible, and has predicted Birmingham to finish 11th with 64.64 points.Their chances of reaching the playoffs are deemed to be 3.76 per cent, with their back-to-back defeats proving to be damning.It remains to be seen if Davies can survive this going forward, with there being a clear ambition to return to the Premier League as soon as possible.However, it now appears that no matter what happens with the manager, the Blues will have to wait at least until next season to potentially return to the Championship playoffs.
