Chris Davies reacts to "incredible" thing about Birmingham City's promotion | OneFootball

Birmingham broke the all-time third tier points record on Sunday with a 4-0 win over Mansfield Town.

Birmingham City manager Chris Davies has predicted that his side's 105 points may never be beaten by another League One team.

In the final game at St Andrew's, where they haven't lost a league fixture all season, Birmingham were able to finally lift the third tier title following their 4-0 win over Mansfield Town.

City officially won the league just over two weeks prior thanks to other results going their way, but they had an EFL Trophy final against Peterborough United at Wembley the next day so they weren't have been able to properly celebrate.

Birmingham City points tally may never be beaten, according to Chris Davies

It was a day packed with lifelong memories for everyone involved, and a day of history too. Courtesy of the three points that they picked up at the weekend, Blues reached 105 points - a record tally for the division, surpassing the previous highest of 103 which was held by their midlands rivals, Wolverhampton Wanderers.

Davies said that the aim for this season wasn't to reset the bar in this way, even though many people predicted it was possible, but he made sure to reiterate the magnitude of his side's achievements once they had surpassed their eventual goal.

"My mind at the start of the season was let’s win a few games and see where we go, but obviously as we got going I was aware that was what Wolves had done previously and it is an incredible achievement," the City boss admitted, via Birmingham Live.

"I will keep saying this and saying this, to get 105 points in a season, people might take it for granted, this isn’t something to be taken for granted.

"It’s incredible to get that amount of points and the consistency they have shown week in, week out, I really don’t think it will get touched again."

Blues still have one more piece of history that they can go after, the EFL's record points total. Their current League One rivals, Reading, achieved 106 points in Birmingham's home for next season in the 2005/06 campaign.

Two draws or a win in their final couple of games versus Blackpool and Cambridge United would put them atop that list; they may even be the first team to pass 110 if they win both of those matches.

"Yeah, we go to win every game," Davies said when asked by the club about his drive to break the EFL record. "We've got two games to go, two tough away games, but until that whistle blows at Cambridge we're not going to stop and we'll see how far we can get."

Birmingham's sights shouldn't turn to the summer quite yet

At the time of Reading's landmark season, just under two decades ago, people probably thought that 106 would take a much longer time to surpass. There's no guarantee that Davies and his players will make that final bit of history, but their two opponents, the latter of whom are already relegated, have nothing left to play for this season.

It will be a big challenge for them, going up to the Championship, but they've planned for that to be the next stop on their journey for some time now. A little bit of their last-minute preparations at the end of this season can be put on hold as they try to really rubberstamp themselves into the EFL's history books.
