Birmingham
Updated .
the local sports scene
Birmingham is England's second city and carries second-city chips on every Aston Villa and Birmingham City match.
The local sports scene
The scene
Villa Park and St Andrew's are four miles apart; the Second City derby is less frequent now but no less bitter. Warwickshire cricket at Edgbaston fills the summer.
Rivalries that matter
Villa against Birmingham City is the derby; Wolves and West Brom are the regional grudges.
Where to watch
Digbeth and the Holte End pubs on Villa nights.
