Tudgay won't get the Blues - exclusive

Tudgay has 11 goals this season and has been playing out of position recently but his form has not been affected, especially with the rest of the team on top of their respective games.

Wednesday are currently two points off the play-offs with two games to go and have to rely on a culmination of good results against The Blues and Norwich City along with other results going their way in a late bid to extend their season.

Brian Laws' team are one of the most in-form outfits in the country at the moment but the trip to St. Andrew's is a daunting one although Tudgay and co are more than up for the challenge.

"We are confident at the moment," he told Footymad on Wednesday's play-off chase. "I don't think we are going to get carried away because we will take every game as it comes. We also need a lot of results to go our way, but we have to win our games first and then we see what's what.

"A win at Birmingham isn't out of the question; we have come up against some good teams this season. At the end of the day, as long as we go there and play our football and don't worry too much about how they are going to play, we are going to go there knowing we can get the win.

"Any team can beat any in this division; you look at Birmingham's result at Barnsley recently for example. But we will be going there, giving 110% and trying to get the win."

Wednesday's only major failing this year has been their terrible start to the year but Tudgay is refusing to let that play on his mind.

He added: "We know about our blip in January - I think we shot ourselves in the foot then but we are still playing well and we want to finish the season strong and forget about what's happened in the past.

"I think last year, football-wise it wasn't the greatest of seasons. But this year the boys are playing good football, we have had a blip like I said earlier but overall the boys are good and the team spirit is good too."

Meanwhile, Glenn Whelan capped off his best-ever campaign after being named overall player of the season - Frank Simek won the best defender, the midfielder gong went to Chris Brunt while Deon Burton scooped the forward's award.
