Birmingham secured promotion on Tuesday night after a 2-1 win against Peterborough.
And the club confirmed two days later that a documentary has been in the works since last August.

“The documentary will shine a spotlight on this community’s resurgence, illustrating how the football club plans to drive its transformation.”
