It’s Gary o’hare and Tony Atkins

Surely Laurence has decided from the 6-8 riders he is considering which ones are going to complete the team. will jan graveson be coming out of retirement ??

So is it completely flat like a German track or do you mean it hasn’t a negative camber as Rye house used to have ?

The speedway star says they are talking to 6-8 riders but are just deciding which are the best options. now I know the management have to stay and say positive things but this isn’t 1977 and your customers are not as gullible as they were back then. surely you know exactly how many riders you are talking to and as there are no other team places it’s Birmingham or nothing. Simple as that. Maybe they are awaiting visa or a sponsor license but if that’s the case why not say so !!!

Another worry I would have if I was a brummies fan is absolutely no news on any sponsors either existing or new ones. Especially as the promotion made it clear when they took over how crucial this would be to survive

In today’s Speedway star Laurence is just deciding on his options for his strongest team !!!! So a announcement must be fairly soon plus he is quoted regarding the mildenhall 2008 team that it wasn’t a bad team this was the team than won only one cup fixture all season. I remember a press conference at the start of the season and we had heard kaj laukkenen was only going to start the season and leave when his other commitments got busier. laurence told the crowd that it was untrue and Obviously that did happen come may

If you can’t attract gappmaier then you really are in the mire.

Maybe the club are in the process of gaining a sponsor license to enable them to sign work permit riders. This could be a plausible reason for the delay.

I’d completely agree with that. He had got 13 points at home against wolves before that crash and was really starting to look like a number one.

I don’t think there was any contribution from Birmingham in this weeks speedway star. Now every other team in the championship has finalised their teams there is no competition for riders. It’s Birmingham or nothing it’s looking likely that josh Auty will be at number one. Gappmaier may be a possibility and after that I’m struggling to see who could possibly be a potential signing Maybe Justin sedgeman or brayden mcguiness

Buster would be wise to invest in proper fish and chip fryers like mildenhall have.

Are there relegation play offs this season !!!!

Perhaps your team could let Birmingham have one of your 3 genuine number ones ???

Kozza retired due to injury. Taylor fell out of love with speedway. I think Dakota went to help his father in the family business and Kyle became a fireman back home in Canada. exactly the sort of thinking to find a rider though. Ellis perks maybe

Exactly. There are very few available riders. Unless you can pull a rabbit out of a hat like bjarne pedersen then I think you will end up with gappmaier and sedgeman at best.

With Poole having 3 number one riders hasn’t helped the situation.

According to his interview in speedway star this week. No offers

Well it’s not Justin sedgeman who actually could do a decent job as a second string.

Be very interesting to know. Be a good article for the speedway star to cover

Has dany gappmaier said if he wants to return to the uk this season ? seems strange that if Berwick did want him back he would have been announced long ago.

While the concept is good the area where it will fail will be the standard pay rates for the riders. there will be van breakdowns and many other various reasons why they can’t attend. the riders will treat it with contempt and fans will attend and get disillusioned with multiple programme changes and the whole thing will be binned after this season.

Makes more sense ! Thank you

Danno verge has said on Facebook he has signed for Kent plus another team. Could this be Birmingham as he can only ride for one national league team ?????

Waiting to see the fixtures so see availability I’m sure they had the draft fixtures weeks ago so that seems a nonsense. Any Dane I would suggest is out of the equation due to danish league matches being on Wednesday

We thought that at Ipswich. Loved a trip to hospital
