There are many causes of irritation in modern life: people who eat fast food on buses, drivers who block junctions by jumping traffic lights to join the end of a traffic jam and, of course, anyone who speaks with an Estuary English accent.

But one of the greatest irritations of all seems finally to have evaporated as surely as West Bromwich Albion's chances of remaining in the Premier League.

I refer to the disregard that national newspapers have until now shown towards Birmingham, in particular its restaurant scene.
