Birmingham City’s record-breaking 2024/25 season remains one of the greatest achievements in English football. Under Chris Davies, the club earned 111 points from 46 games and won the League One title in dominant fashion.
They recorded 34 wins, 9 draws and just 3 losses. The team also scored over 100 goals and showed consistency throughout the campaign.
A Historic Record
The 111-point total set a new world record for a professional league season. It surpassed previous records, including Reading’s 106 points in the 2005/06 Championship season.
Birmingham’s dominance placed them among the most impressive teams ever seen in the third tier.
Lincoln Fall Short
Lincoln City have already secured the League One title this season. They sit on 90 points after 41 matches with five games remaining.
Even if they win all their remaining games, they can only reach 105 points. This still leaves them short of Birmingham’s record.
No Real Challengers
No other team in the division is close to the record either. Cardiff City, currently second, sit well behind with 78 points.
This gap highlights how difficult it is to match Birmingham’s achievement.
A Record That May Stand for Years
Birmingham’s 111-point season stands as a benchmark for excellence. It combined attacking strength, defensive stability and remarkable consistency.
While Lincoln’s promotion is a major success, the Blues’ record remains untouched. It may take many years before any team comes close to breaking it.
