  1. I've said it before and I'll say it again.....Ulrich isn't a bad rider....it's definitely his equipment that lets him down....it simply isn't quick enough! As for Zach? the future is what he wants it to be.....he has the ability, he has the machinery, he doesn't have the confidence !!? Only time will tell?
  2. Ohhhhh....is Foamfence giving out Grammar lessons ??? I thought he was questioning Brummies timing/tactical movement ??? My post reads exactly as us Brummies would say it : )))))
  3. Exactly! May 31st ...Ulrich replaced ! June 2nd....Zach cries off!
  4. Agree about Drew Kemp.....he did look a bit lightweight last night and Paco certainly took no prisoners when he passed him! The gulf between NL and Championship is massive .... I have a different opinion about Shanes/Kennedy incident? there appeared to be no contact at all....just a hard pass. It could easily have been the other way round on the previous lap....? You're right about Stoneman going in to bend 3/4 fast in heat 2, but Macdonald locked up and gave Stoneman no chance of avoiding him.....Macdonald definitely was the cause of the stoppage...imo! Just glad no-one got injured
  5. The way I saw him was.......Ulrich is a good/hard rider, but his machinery lacks speed....I reckon if B'ham had of known about Zach quitting before sacking Ulrich, he'd of still been with us now??? Great/likeable guy and I wish him well at Redcar!
  6. The result was 'fantastic' ! The racing wasn't much to shout about (imo) ? Gate and go ! I'm not convinced by the 'new' track curators ? Some of the race times were 2/3 seconds slower than the National League last season. FACT! There was one or 2 heats of good team riding to bag 2nd/3rd places.....but team riding is a lot easier on a slick surface like last night. I can only recall 2 passes worth mentioning? Anyhow.... Great performances from Morris and Paco.....Shanes deserved more for his efforts....Stoneman got shafted in Heat 2 running in to a 'locked-up' Macdonald....I think both riders must've damaged their machinery because both were off the pace after their crash? The flying Finn? looked comfortable and very controlled...just needs a couple of meetings to get dialled in.....couldn't of picked 2 harder meetings to kick off his season (Leicester next week) Sheffield look a very solid side and it's a massive compliment to our boys for beating them! What was that I hear??? Brummies for the 'wooden spoon' ??? Think again!!!
  7. Saw Josh ride at B'ham on press and practice day....he looked super quick...can't believe the Brummies didn't sign him first??? R/R for Zach??? not sure about that one....? hope Laurence uses his R/R wisely ?
  8. If it's a guest replacement tomorrow for Zach....then I'd go for Danny Ayres!?
  9. I wonder how Belle Vue cope ? didnt seem to be that many there last night?
  10. Does anyone know what average 'Bellego' would be ? I think he'd be a great signing if we could fit him in?
  11. Great speedway meeting! Ipswich unlucky with Harris damaging his bike? Couldve been a different result? How annoying is that 'whiney' woman announcer???
  12. Say no more ! Welcome home Ben ??? : ) Only joking...sounds like Ben has a few issues (reading Redcar's press release) ?
  13. I thought that's what he gets paid to do ?
  14. You'll also be seeing Drew Kemp ....he's no slouch round PB !
  15. Will we be allowed a guest rider to cover for Zach???
  16. You won't be disappointed ! This meeting is going to be a cracker ! King v Ellis Heat One ??? can't wait !
  17. : )))) Please take 'Sedgeman's' name out of the mix ! Becker would be a great signing!?
  18. Looks like things are looking up for us! We wont be the push-overs that everyone predicted!?
  19. Sorry to go on....my point about the 'weather forecast' is/was they can get it wrong?......therefore, I was informing Eastbourne fans first hand advice on the weather.....just helping a fellow speedway fan but as I said previously, if it doesn't help, then I wont mention it again ….. no problem! (p.s we predicted the score correctly)
  20. Your entitled to your opinion (of course I accept that) but do you seriously think that anybody attending for the first time, or even the occasional attender, reads this forum ??? there's only you, H Gould, UK Martin and myself, that make regular comments??? : ) As for GA, he makes a lot of sensible and very diplomatic points, but his loyalties obviously lie in protecting the business that he works for. Hence the comment about Zach ??? I'd much rather see Tobias Thomsen in the side. Zach may have top scored a couple of times, but he hasn't passed a rider all season! P.s the benefit for the Eastbourne fans (re: the weather) is that they have a 400 mile round trip …..I thought that was pretty obvious??? If it helps the club I wont mention the weather again : )
  21. Absolute rubbish!!! People will make their own mind up whether to attend or not ??? Being a 'dead rubber' meeting is the likely cause of a low attendance!
  22. If you read the first post about the weather correctly, you will see that I stated 'If the forecast is correct' ??? the Met Office make the forecast, not me ! Also, we called the Leicester meeting OFF because of the forecast and didn't wait to see what effect the weather had? which, we all know was fine and racing could've gone ahead! I mention the weather purely for the information of an away supporter travelling all the way from Eastbourne??? if my comments about the weather put any B'ham fans off, then they're not really fans at all and I must have the same influence as Simon Cowell does when swaying voters on BGT ! LMAO!
