Birmingham City clinch promotion with victory at Peterborough on Tuesday night .

Chris Davies' side sealed an immediate return to the Championship with six games to spare.

Blues are now 14 points above fellow American -owned side Wrexham , who have just five games left.

If Blues beat Crawley at home on Good Friday , they could have three different celebration parties three games running.

Birmingham have spent more than any other side at this level, even Wrexham , could match their spending.

Blues spent Â25 m last summer to bring in 17 new players, including seven -figure fees for Emil Hansson , Ayumu Yokoyama , Alex Cochrane and Lyndon Dykes .

Blues have come close to breaking the League One transfer record with the arrival of Christoph Klarer and Willum Willumsson , both for around Â4m.
