Tom Brady has been criticized by Birmingham City fans after issuing a rallying cry in the wake of their relegation from the Championship.
The NFL legend and seven-time Super Bowl winner was in Miami on Saturday when the Blues dropped down to the third tier of English soccer.

Brady is the most high-profile member of the club's American ownership group, which controversially sacked manager John Eustace and replaced him with Wayne Rooney in October.
