Happy birthday, Gareth Taylor!

Many happy returns to the City boss, who turns 48 today.

Appointed in May 2020, amidst the global pandemic, Taylor is sadly yet to meet our incredible fans in person.

But he has met a few virtually - most recently, young fan Leah from Weston-super-Mare, who kindly penned a letter to the Blues boss and posted it to the CFA.

Delighted to receive the correspondence, Taylor set up a surprise video call with Leah and her family, expressing his gratitude and sharing some valuable advice for the budding footballer.

Our Head Coach also sent a gift in return - a shirt signed by his FA Cup-winning City squad!
