  1. It's hammering down here too....I'm in between Tamworth and PB atm... It's difficult to 2nd guess wot the club will do, especially with Scunthorpe being a fair distance....
  2. Fair enough.... I suppose it doesn't affect much re: the Forum, as only a handful of supporters contribute....
  3. Can we tempt a few Leicester followers with the inclusion of Howarth ?
  4. P.s its a shame we're competing with Real Madrid v Man City tonight....
  5. You're joking....the bar prices are astronomical and unfortunately controlled by the extortionate rates that the Stadium owners set. Not allowed to take any food/drink in to the stadium....not fair.... especially for away fans, who may have travelled a fair distance. This is out of the Club's hands!
  6. Great gesture by the Club to offer a free programme to all of us who attended the Berwick meeting!
  7. Agree, it's disappointing that the Team news was very late in arriving and may be some notification by the Club's PR would've helped here??? I can only assume that the reason for a late revelation is that may be the Club were waiting on confirmation of our guest rider 'Howarth' (great choice btw....) it looks like we want to WIN this one! Note to Club.....who are doing all the right things....Get the match info out and advertised at least 2 days prior to fixture. It doesnt cost any money to do that. (it's not a criticism before the red'n'yellow brigade start doing their war dance....it's called Good PR....) We've lost a ticket sale! I hope Tosh1218 will reconsider his 'position' and come and support a club in need ! 54 - 36 to the Brummies (due to the Howarth inclusion...) p.s Hope he brings his gloves with him!
  8. Forward thinking! Should be made statutory at ALL meetings/clubs!
  9. I totally get where you're coming from! Thank you for your positive thoughts re: speedway at PB! I have been shot down many a time....sometimes fairly and sometimes not, but that's just my opinion and hey that's what forums are for...right? First meeting of the season I mentioned the weather forecast? (negative) I was told by (not mention names) that I was being negative and it could affect attendance? (didnt know that I was on the clubs PR team) LOL The meeting was called off ! Say no more... I said that I wouldn't mention the weather again.....I will keep to my word!
  10. Apologies....I accept the debate of sorts.. Some of their points and opinions are valid though Pete... It was a unique situation against Berwick and one that I wouldnt want the club to face again.
  11. My personal view is that there's 2 sides to LR responses? 1. its great to see someone involved with my beloved club who's willing to listen to us fans and I'm grateful that he comes on here and givers us direct info and clarity. 2. From a professional perspective, he may need to keep ANY opinions to himself because of offending a prospective paying customer...... I know we can't have it all ways but that's just how I see it. Iainb is entitled to his opinion whether we agree or not... Again, just my opinion.
  12. There's no debate to discuss? Bottom line is, B'ham have done the right thing and have put what should be a minimum requirement in to place. What it has done, is open my eyes to attending any other meetings around the country.
  13. Fantastic! Thank you to the new consortium for this!
  14. Can we swap Claus Vissing for Danny king please ? Back on topic, can't really make a prediction until we know whose guesting for Kennett? Wouldnt 'Bomber' be the obvious choice? If so, I think Plymouth can win 48-42
  15. Good to see the management using the right tactics....throwing Nielsen in against the weaker reserve (Ablitt). P.s First team to take a 5-1 at Poole this season ...LOL.... 'straw clutching' ?
  16. Looks like you had a valid point (pardon the pun) here....Nielsen appears to have done his bit at reserve (as you'd expect being an ex Pirate) and Vissing was 'missing' .... p#ss poor from a supposedly No.1 rider!
  17. It's not about the money now that I've chilled out the way I see it is.... they had/have, 2 options? Either refund/free admission to another meeting and we carry on... or, do wot they're doing and go by the Official guidelines... BUT, put something in place for the next meeting so it minimises the risk of it happening again?
  18. So, on the Official B'ham website today.... The club are still taking the stance of 'only £8' off any other home meeting apart from U21 Final. This is disappointing! Onwards and upwards according to the club! No mention of what will be different re: Medical Cover for the next Home meeting? Bad PR IMO! Call me disloyal, but I wont be attending!
  19. Its obviously going to be a hammering on Wednesday. I'm guessing that the management also expect this as no guest employed for Auty ? What are others thoughts on this ? I'm assuming its about keeping costs down ? I'm not fussed either way. I think R/R at home meetings is a no brainer, but 'winnable' away meetings (and there's not many) might be more advantageous to have a guest? May be Danny Gappmaier might re-consider and be a half decent replacement?
  20. Well the demo last week took place after the main parade (which i would've assumed started at 7.30pm?) I didn't check my watch at the time, but it was there or there about ?
