Gold admits worry over Blues return
David Gold will return to Birmingham for the first time since taking over West Ham "with some intrepidation" for Saturday's Barclays Premier League clash.
Gold - and co-owner David Sullivan - quit Blues after nearly 17 years in charge last season before selling to Carson Yeung in an £81.5million deal.
He admits his departure from City was acrimonious after claiming he was offered a role under the new board as vice-chairman - something which was denied by Yeung.
Gold told the Birmingham Mail: "I left Birmingham in rather acrimonious circumstances. That was hugely, hugely disappointing at the time.
"I was saddened by how it all ended and I had mapped out my future life continuing there.
"I had no thought of West Ham - although they were always in the back of my mind because I was a supporter and they were my boyhood club."
