They also competed in the 1932–33 FA Cup, entering at the third round proper and losing to West Ham United in the sixth (quarter-final).

Twenty-four players made at least one appearance in nationally organised competition, and there were nine different goalscorers. Full-back Harold Booton and forward Tom Grosvenor were ever-present over the 47-match season, and there were joint leading scorers, with 14 goals: Ernie Curtis and, for the 12th successive season, Joe Bradford. All Bradford's goals came in the league.

At the end of the season, Birmingham were unable to match the offer made by Chelsea to Leslie Knighton to become their manager.
