Bar32, which officially reopened on Monday, June 15, is a vibrant new sports bar dedicated to revitalizing Bartley Green Football Club and its community spirit. All five investors are local Brummies, with three being former professional players—most notably, ex-West Brom manager Jimmy Shan. Shan, who served as caretaker manager for the Baggies in 2019, now leads Aston Villa’s Under-21 team and plans to leverage his football connections to bring special guest appearances to the bar.
