guitar_art Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Disgraceful 'pair' for the Brummies. Birmingham should be fined. And you should go get st*****d. How in any way is this Birminghams fault. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diesel Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 And you should go get st*****d. How in any way is this Birminghams fault. Attack the post not the poster. Â Name me another sport where a team would be allowed to send such understrength representation to supposedly one of the marquee events of the season without punishment. Every time a team turns something like this into a farce they should be punished until they pull their act together. Â People moan that speedway is too amateurish but would go mad if it was run like any other sport. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
manchesterpaul Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 (edited) Ok looks like the meeting is all sorted now and i've made a racecard available as a direct download at the top of the racecard page. When i say 'looks like' that is of course not allowing for rider's van breakdowns, sudden onset of 'elite league pairs i can't be bothered with that flu' outbreak and of course the probably now likely to happen biblical plagues of varying sorts. Â ELITE LEAGUE PAIRS RACECARD Â Ok i've done my best despite all the confusion. I've gone for the 2009 format in the speedway regulations and with the line-up as per 'Skybet' less than two hours before the meeting starts. Now if anybody has to have the correct riders listed it is them. I've never had a racecard wrong before, however, this one is not guaranteed, but should be ok. Â I pity the specatators at the track if the meeting programme has a pre-printed line-up from even a day ago. I should have gone to the meeting armed with pens, pencils and erasers to sell. I'd never have to work again i'd make so much money lol. Â Please note that unlike the SGP racecards this one for the pairs is to be printed landscape as opposed to portrait. It's a nice large print version to be printed both sides of a single sheet or on two separate pages. It's a direct download with no advertising etc. Edited April 27, 2011 by manchesterpaul Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tellboy Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 (edited) I respect your opinion screamer lad but I'm afraid this event just doesn't represent value for money. Compare it to fifteen quid for 25 heats of SWC for instance. I've attended enough Stars meetings both home and away over the years to not feel guilty about staying at home this evening. While i agree it is rather steep price wise,surely this is better value for money than the EL. If i am right there are 24 heats tonight for £20 as opposed to 15 heats for £15. But the SWC does represent great value for money. I am going tonight purely to support our pairing and hope to see them win.

Â People moan that speedway is too amateurish but would go mad if it was run like any other sport. And if your so clever please tell me exactly what we could do about it? See if you can find a rider prepared to ride with only hours to spare. Oh and By the way to update an earlier list. Nermark is in Sweden and Barker is injured. The real culprits here are the Polish authorities and not Birmingham who are already going to suffer enough thank you very much without sugestions of fines. so I ask again what exactly can birmingham do about this situation?

champs99 Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 Yet you say "Kings Lynn speedway, to my understanding wanted Peterborough out of business to increase there fan base" - a pathetic unsubstantiated piece of tittle-tattle that's hardly respectful of KL Management or their opinions. Â Care to cite your sources? yes....my ears and eyes......but this is not the place to get in a full blown discussion about the matter!!

Â It's not their fault - but why couldn't Barker go? Or any of the other Brum EL squad? Â I have all the sympathy in the world for the Birmigham fans, I said ever since you swapped leagues with us that I felt I didn't think the club and fans quite knew what they'd be letting themselves in for in the world of UK "Elite" speedway!

Barker is nursing an injury. King is injured. Nermark is in Sweden. The problem is that this was thrust upon us with hours to go and riders are not ready. Bikes are probably in pieces or riders are out of the country or engines at tuners or any number of reasons that would be impossible to sort out at such short notice.

tas Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 I feel for Birmingham. It is bad enough to lose Danny due to an injury but what a joke for a country to ban a rider from riding due to his form. I would have thought to get good form you would need to ride. Good luck tonight to Coventry at least they are sending 2 heatleaders. Shame about Hans being injured would like to see him get the title back. Was going to this but i can not justifly paying £80.00 to get in plus diesel and food. Mikey is well upset but it is not the line up i was expecting.

Twisti Twotle Posted April 27, 2011 Report Share Posted April 27, 2011 just out of interest will jake knight use an old nl silencer which would be against the rules or a elite one which he probably hasn't used before could be interesting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
