Birmingham City fans unveil banner criticising owner Carson Yeung

Birmingham City fans unveil a banner at today's Championship game against Queens Park Rangers protesting against the club's jailed owner Carson Yeung.

Birmingham City fans have unveiled a banner protesting against the club's owner Carson Yeung after he was jailed for money laundering yesterday.

A group of supporters at the home stands unfurled the banner in the sixth minute of the team's 2-0 Championship defeat against Queens Park Rangers today at St Andrew's Stadium, the number six being symbolic of wealth in China, Yeung's home country.

The flag carried the words "All We Care About Is BCFC", and on it four ex-Blues players were pictured - Trevor Francis, Stephen Carr, Christophe Dugarry and Gil Merrick.

Yeung was convicted on Monday after £55m passed through his bank accounts between 2001 and 2007, but his son Ryan, 20, and brother-in-law Shui Cheong Ma, 52, remain on the club's board of directors.

According to BBC Sport, the club has insisted that the 54-year-old's sentence will not affect its operations.
