The 2013-14 campaign delivered a dramatic and agonizing, last-gasp survival for Birmingham City as the Blues finished a perilous 21st in the Championship. They secured their second-tier status on the final day with a truly unforgettable moment: Paul Caddis's 93rd-minute equalizer at Bolton Wanderers, which, combined with Doncaster Rovers' defeat, averted crushing relegation to League One. Leading the charge was loanee Federico Macheda, whose 10 goals from just 18 appearances made him the club's top league scorer in a tumultuous year defined by high drama and an emotional escape.
