Gardner says Birmingham one win from safety

Craig Gardner says Birmingham City are one win away from Premier League safety.

He knows if Blues gain one more win they are all but guaranteed to escape relegation and they can finally celebrate what will have been their greatest season for decades.

"Hopefully one more win should be enough for us to be safe, but we're not looking at that," he told the Sunday Mercury. "We want to finish as high as we can.

"There are a lot of teams down there and there are still points to play for so we want to finish with as many as possible. We got seven points out of three vital six-pointers before Chelsea which were important.

"But we can't stop there, we've got to continue to sweat blood and tears.

"Hopefully I can continue to score goals, but I don't mind who gets the goals as long as we win.

"It's a team effort at the end of the day so as long as someone is scoring I'm not bothered. It would be nice if some of the others chipped in too!"
