The Sky Bet League One match between Birmingham City and Mansfield Town, originally scheduled for Saturday, April 26, 2025, at St. Andrew’s Stadium, has been postponed. The decision was made following safety concerns raised by Nottinghamshire Police, who advised that intelligence suggested potential public safety risks. The required significant police presence would have been unsustainable and not in keeping with the ethos of a ‘friendly’ fixture.
