Robbie Williams watched Birmingham City\u2019s <\/a>match with West Bromwich Albion on Tuesday night.<\/p>\n

The former Take That member, now a superstar in his own right, was spotted by Sky Sports\u2019 cameras sitting next to Blues\u2019 director of football Craig Gardner<\/a> at St Andrew\u2019s @ Knighthead Park.<\/p>\n

Williams \u2013 who has four million followers on social media platform Instagram \u2013 is currently touring in England and played in Wolverhampton on Monday evening.<\/p>\n

The 51-year-old hails from Stoke-on-Trent and is a Port Vale supporter, but he was a guest at St Andrew\u2019s for the Albion game.<\/p>\n

Williams\u2019 drummer, Karl Brazil, was born in Solihull<\/a> and is a Blues supporter \u2013 which is believed to be the reason why Williams was in the house.<\/p>\n

The club have held concerts at St Andrew\u2019s in recent seasons with local artists UB40 and Jaykae performing for fans and part of the plan for the club\u2019s proposed 62,000-seater stadium, The Powerhouse, is to bring the world\u2019s biggest music acts to Birmingham.<\/p>\n
