Birmingham fans turned on chairman David Gold and co-owner David Sullivan as their side's relegation from the Premier League was confirmed despite substitute Cameron Jerome's late double in the 4-1 win against Blackburn.

Chants of the "the board must go" were aimed towards the director's box once it became clear there was going to be no last day of the season Houdini act for Alex McLeish's side.

David Murphy's first-half goal was cancelled out by Rovers midfielder Morten Gamst Pedersen before substitute Jerome struck twice and Fabrice Muamba added a fourth in injury-time.

Murphy gave Birmingham hope with a low drive which should have been covered by Brad Friedel in the 31st minute but Morten Gamst Pedersen equalised for Rovers who tucked home the loose ball after Maik Taylor's double save from Jason Roberts.

Jerome then came to the fore in the 73rd minute when he converted a centre from Larsson and then coolly slotted the ball past Friedel for his second.

Muamba headed in an injury-time cross from Medhi Nafti for the fourth but it mattered little as results elsewhere saw the Blues drop into the Coca-Cola Championship.
