Leicester v Belle Vue 25 July
the hobbit replied to Rob B's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Just another typical night at the worst, most boring speedway track ever built -
When worrall is fit, we won’t have the option of signing anyone as we will have already passed the deadline of completing 75% of out fixtures which comes mid was through the 28 day period. had to be a full time signing NOW or keep an unfit Worrall or run rider replacement which the club has already stated , does not work for us with the current team.

Birmingham vs King’s Lynn - June 24th 2024
the hobbit replied to SpeedwayFan91's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
The only person Tolley should have been lambasting was his team manager for his absurd riding order snd yet again, his unthathomable lack of team changes, leaving sedgemen in 12 and Worrall in heat 13. oh and maybe he could also have a word in the track man’s ear for yet again having a track surface totally different from the last hone meeting. Yes it was a really hot day all day, thus making it difficult to keep the moisture in the track but why oh why wasn’t the track watered far more often during the meeting? kings Lynn rode harder than we did, attacked the track more and fully deserved their win. -
Birmingham vs King’s Lynn - June 24th 2024

Yes. Very healthy turnout. Lots of new faces, youngsters and families with children that are not normally there. warm weather at last was also a blessing, as was the much anticipated debut of lindgren -

Ipswich v Birmingham KOC 2nd Leg 06/06
the hobbit replied to SuffolkWitch's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Correct… 8 -
I agree , it’s stupid. As the rules stand, if we dropped Worrall snd kept cook until Worrall was well enough to return, we would have to apply for permission to reinstate Worrall snd this might not be granted and, there’s no guarantee Worrall wouldn’t choose to go elsewhere, as per Pickering last season looks like we’ve chosen the rider rep option for Ipswich tomorrow so if we follow that trend then the using of guests argument doesn’t apply anyway. ti be honest, being able to use Brennan plus several rides from Pawlicki is probs going to be more beneficial as long as Pawlicki finds some form.

I’d say 100% the correct call. Cook has done nothing wrong yet, at no time this season, has he excited me or had me commenting after a race or, a meeting ….. “great job by Zack there”. He’s been unlucky as the plan was to have him at reserve but for various reasons, this hasn’t happened. Sadly for Zack, Worrall and sedgemen are both riding better than him snd scoring more points. regarding lampart, he has done much better than I expected, there have been flashes of brilliance and signs he is improving week on week. There is also the bonus that lampart becomes a club asset whereas Cook doesn’t. Lampart has the edge on cook in my opinion Worrall has been lucky as until they were all told a change was coming, his form had been disappointing but he’s got his finger out since then thankfully, Some said keep coook and redeclare without the unwell Worrall then release cook and reinstate Worrall when well but, remember, Lynn tried that with Pickering last year and he jumped ship to Sheffield plus, there’s no guarantee the authorities would have sanctioned Worrall being reinstated ….. They can decline his returning. yes, for me, 100% the right choice. thanks for your efforts Zach. Bit unlucky if truth be told. Hope you get fixed up elsewhere asap.

Birmingham v Ipswich 3/6/24
the hobbit replied to stevebrum's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
If Ipswich best letter on aggregate tonight then next Mondays match will be a cup match. If they lose on aggregate next Mondays match will be a league match snd the Brummies versus Leicester cup semi final will be arranged for later in the season.- 1 reply

Your usual obnoxious drivel. -
Leicester v Oxford 27th May
the hobbit replied to Arch Stanton's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Judging by the often obnoxious and derisory posts you often make, you have no room to talk. I have you on mute as I assume many other people do. as you talk utter bullrubbish all the time. I was merely replying to posts other people had made and expressing my opinion, one I am entitled to hold why can’t you ever accept other people’s views? down to your lobotomy perhaps ? -

Leicester v Oxford 27th May
the hobbit replied to Arch Stanton's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I have watched speedway for nearly fifty years , been to every British track snd many around Europe. spent half a season watching leicesters home meetings. By that time , I was so bored with the standard of entertainment, I found I was spending more time talking to the fans around me than watching the racing. Didn’t attend after that may as well race on tarmac, for all the dirt there is at Leicester. !!! No matter what changes and tinkering you’ve done over the years, you will never overcome the disaster that was created from a blank canvas, unless you completely scrap the entire track snd start again with a completely different shape and lets be honest, that’s never going to happen yes there are some overtakes, few and far between but I find once the riders have done the first two bends, that’s it unless someone makes a mistake I wouldn’t attend Leicester anymore , not even if you paid all my travel expenses, my admission snd the cost of having to take a days holiday from work to attend. It’s the most boring, uninspiring track I’ve ever attended in nearly 50 years -

Why weaken what is already the weakest team in the league. I think Pawlicki will stay and either cook or Worrall will be released … probably cook -

Unfortunately not, according to the pre meeting post on the official club site -
It doesn’t matter what average they give him as we have so much free space in the averages, they could give him an 11 point average and we could still fit him in !!! brilliant signing. what say you now “give us a B”. ?

We’ve already got six of those !!! (plus our rising star).
