More riders? More riders than the ones mentioned a couple of weeks ago? or more riders as opposed to the 4 already signed ? If he's had to change his options/search, then I'm a bit concerned for our future. I can understand him not saying who....so we just have to accept he's trying and that's that! Laurence knows more than anybody that people won't attend if he serves up 'sh#te' ! The closing part of the statement worries me? Josh Auty vows to give his all ??? hope that's not a hint at him being our No.1 ??? I'd class myself as a die-hard....not a 'die-at all costs' !

It's certainly not a Midlands attraction....we've had this debate before....we can't compete with football (even though all our teams are sh#te...) and the new cricket format... 20/20 is far more exciting than an average speedway meeting these days....even darts is more watchable than speedway (IMO) Whilst some sports have progressed, speedway has reversed so far as entertainment value goes! Even Belle Vue are struggling and they have one of the best set-ups in the world of speedway! WE desperately need ex Cov/Cradley fans to attend and the only way they're going to do that is if there are decent riders and decent racing on show? (may be...) When B'ham closed, I went to Cov/wolves for a speedway fix!
-
Quite right about the fuel prices etc.... But so far as the team goes, I think LR knows this and will put a competitive team together....I'm keeping the faith! We can't criticize, until there's something there to judge?
-
Just stating a fact! Perry Barr and most of its surrounding areas are sh#t holes..... Regeneration my a#se! (in the words of Jim Royle....) I hate the place! As for the comment that B'ham has always rode in this area? It used to be ok in the 80's...... but, I'm afraid its been on the decline since the the turn of the century.
-
I don't think our 'location' helps....proper sh#t hole of an area! (as was the 'Wheels project'!!)
-
I have no doubt the club/management will be doing all they can to get things over the line.... Seeing/hearing about all the work that's going on with the track/stadium is inspiring.
-
Sure... I think an update from the club would be helpful and encouraging. As for Permits etc, surely this should've been activated as soon as they decided to kick on last November?
-
Not sure what 'LR's' angle/intention is so far as team completion goes? I suppose he doesn't want to keep repeating that we are close etc.... Silence is only positive in 'negative' situations IMO.
-
Good point about Gappmaier so far as Berwick are concerned........there is definitely something holding him back from committing to the Championship this season? Like you, I dont think B'ham will get his signature anytime soon....
-
Plus Ellis wages would be too high no doubt...after all he is the British Champion which you'd have thought gives him more of a salary status? I think from a PR perspective 'LR' needs to update the fans on the situation....whose going to buy a season ticket under the current circumstances? How can 'B'ham' advertise/market their season based on half a team? You'd think a new business venture would want to spread the word and do all they can to convince 'old/lost' fans to return ??? Let's face it, there's not going to be many new fans these days. Feeling a bit under whelmed atm......
-
Think we'd be title contenders if we signed your first 3 suggestions ? The weight (pardon the pun) will get heavier on the Boss's shoulders., the longer this saga goes on !
-
If Ellis isn't riding in Denmark .... then ???
-
Leon FlintTom BrennanJordan PalinDan ThompsonConnor BaileyDaniel GilkesAnders RoweJordan JenkinsDrew KempJoe Thompson Leon should have a great chance of winning this....Tom Brennan will be his nearest rival round Perry Barr. You can probably add Jack Thomas to this list.
-
Disagree! They get far more fans than a speedway meeting! As for the 'alcohol' consumption? It shows British mentality really.... It's clever promotion by the 'Hearns' !
-
Great news!
-
Darts premier league is so much more entertaining than speedway and its nice and warm and the drinks are cheaper
-
Riding on the same night as the Danes is gona screw us....
-
This news is just to pack out the lack of info bout the new signings .... wot a load of cobs wallop!
-
Bit of a difference? Cradley rider, or just sh@te?
-
Said him months ago! Thought he was enjoying life in New Zealand? Not good enuff to be number 1 tho!
-
I personally would welcome anyone that gave 110%! R u saying we wouldn't have welcomed Bruce Penhall or Greg Hancock back in the day? Speedway isn't football... its not tribal IMO! P.s... your I.d picture is brilliant BTW....
-
Who said anything about 'Panicking' ? I'm cool....whatever will be will be!
-
Would be a coup!
-
Thought he was Danish ...silly me ! Thanks

Not sure why Nielsen's starting average for 2022 is less than in this list?
