The question was asked about the 'sky covers'. As someone who was involved in putting them out for a match last year I thought this might be a helpfull insight. Firstly the covers take a very long time to put down. Its not as straightforward as you may think. So for them to be effective you need to start covering the track well before any forecast rain. When we put them down we were severely limited to the time we had available because of a greyhound meeting this meant that we ended up covering only the entries into the first and third bends effectively. The counter-intuitive thing was that when we took up the cover's from the track that the wettest part of the track was the part's that we had covered.

Danny will storm the pl. Would not surprise me see him finish top of the pile. Good bit of business for the brummies. I wonder if that is the end of the business between the two clubs. We are chasing a certain Swede and if that comes to fruition Covatti may be availableto double up.

Brummies V Wolverhampton 7th May

The reason Danny left Nico behind was because Nico lost his steel shoe. -
I have it on good authority that this was a suggestion from a supporter.

Lewis Bridger (depression)
guitar_art replied to Daniel Smith's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
What people are failing to understand is that depression is an illness not something you can just tackle by 'pulling yourself together'. Its an illness in exactly the same way a cold or a virus is and not in the way that a broken bone is. It has many causes including problems with brain chemistry. Its something that you carry with you and no amount of changing jobs or other suggestions will rectify. I know this from bad experience. You carry it with you no matter where you are how many life changes you make. -
Lewis Bridger (depression)
guitar_art replied to Daniel Smith's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
I think, given the posts already on this thread, that its safe to say that depression is a very wide spread thing. (Hold my own hand up here.) I hope that Lewis reads this thread because it will help. I know this because I myself am not in a very happy place currently and it has given me a slight lift. -
Planning permission would prevent that

Birmingham V Coventry 9/4/14
guitar_art replied to TheSmiler's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I wouldn't have called the place packed. However my guestimate is that it was a better crowd than the previous match against Lakeside which is encouraging. -

Well you have spent a lot of time whinging on about what you think is wrong. (Altho I feel that there are far more serious things that need addressing than what yo have whinged on about.) Lets see if you can come up with something constructive. Join us tonight on the sports tavern As far as ticketing prices at Brum: - We have the lowest EL ticket price (Lower than some PL clubs.) and lower than last year. We have the lowest season ticket prices.Again lower than last year. The Selco Classic was originally not included in the season ticket price but now is. I don't believe Brum have a case to answer.

British Speedway Promoters Meeting
guitar_art replied to dantodan's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Grahame Drury has kindly consented to come on the Speedway Tavern tonight (Wednesday.) He will be answering questions on and talking about the AGM. Obviously as a Brummies fan I have 'other' problems and matters that I would love to have answered. However we will be respecting the fact that Grahame wants to talk about the AGM and leave other matters until another time. The show starts at 7:45. If you have any questions you can take part on the shout box on our website or use twitter or facebook. (Links will be provided on the show.) sports-radio.co.uk -
As a Brummie fan I know how devastating it is to lose your team.I sincerely hope you get a new owner asap for a great racing strip. I also hope that we don't follow soon.
