HATCHET MAN: If Birmingham want a Villa reject like Zat Knight, they must already be resigned to rel

Zat Knight was not an overwhelming success at Fulham and has beendeemed not  good enough by Aston Villa, so why are Birmingham after him? A newly-promoted Premier League club are likely to have a pretty busyback four so trying to sign a giant defender who is not quite up toscratch is not the brightest of moves. Birmingham already have a Villa reject at the back in Liam Ridgewelland he isn' t much good. The last thing they need is another cast-off. Alex McLeish obviously didn't notice what happened to Villa when Knightstepped in for the injured Martin Laursen this season.  Their seasonstarted to slide and if the same happens to Birmingham next term theconsequences will be much more serious.
