“But we are confident that we can show our fighting spirit and along with my staff and the fans we will jump this hurdle.“Our group is mentally strong and has always been determined to progress.“When I came here in March [2018] our target was to achieve avoiding relegation and we achieved it, then it was about progression, to achieve safety in a quicker time this year.“We had already done that, we had already achieved safety and were looking up the table before the penalty, but we’ve got to do it again now and I am more than confident that we will do that.”Monk says he’s confident Birmingham are not at risk of being relegated2

Blues lost 37.5million in the 12 months to the end of June 2018, more than double the previous year’s deficit.The main cause of their deteriorating balance sheet was an increase in the wage bill from just over 22million in 2016/17 to nearly 38million the following year as former managers Gianfranco Zola and Harry Redknapp were lavishly backed in the transfer market.As a result, Birmingham have net liabilities of 55million and owe parent company Birmingham Sports Holdings more than 73million, a sum that will grow over the next 18 months as the directors’ report reveals a further 39million will be needed over that period to keep the club afloat.Monk says the club now know exactly what they need to do going forward to avoid a repeat. “I didn’t speculate about anything, my job is to deal with what’s in front of me, and to focus on the football and to be determined to do my best for this club,” he added.“Clarity is the most important thing, it is really important to have had that clarity in order to move forward.“We are not out of the woods, we have to abide by a certain plan going forward so that we do not get into the same position in the future.“Now that the clarity has come we know what we have to do and we can move forward.”
