Mick H Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 i'bve just been told by brummie fan that its being advertised locally as entrance for £10, so i am turning up without a voucher and expecting to pay £10. Seem to remember done this before at Perry Barr.. That really was the obvious way to go from the start, why make more work for yourself?

TonyOfBrum Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 That really was the obvious way to go from the start, why make more work for yourself? Because there is no point throwing the doors open if you have no way of contacting those people again in the future. The club now has the contact details of hundreds, if not thousands of new people on their database which they will target in the weeks, months and hopefully years ahead. Many thanks for the kind offers from Brummies fans that have spares but, as I say, my decision is purely based upon principle. You don't offer something then fail to deliver. It's totally bloody unprofessional. Around 20,000 vouchers have been issued, so it is not unreasonable for some of them not to reach their destination. Accusing the promotion of being unprofessional just because your feelings have been hurt is over the top. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Voice Of Reason Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 So he gets offered tickets but turns them down due to them not being delivered. The Voice Of Reason is bang out of order here, He is deliberately trying to make the Birmingham promotion look amateurish here and I wouldn't be suprised if he made this whole elaborate story up just so he could have a snipe at a promotion that's trying new promotional methods. I find it strange how somebody who pays £17 to watch slow motion bikes turn at Lakeside is turning down the chance to watch Speedway at Birmingham for £10. I am actually now going as, at the end of the day, I want to support my team. If it costs more, then so be it. As I said, money wasn't/isn't the issue. The principle is. However, let me make it quite clear that it doesn't need me to make the promotion look amateurish in THIS particular instance. I'm not the only one on this thread who's tickets haven't materialised - despite ordering them last Friday around 9am. So are you suggesting that we are both liars? So, just for the record, no I'm not making it up. I always enjoy going to Perry Barr; irrespective who wins. I'm a Speedway supporter and, at the end of the day, enjoy watching good racing. Perry Barr is a track where that anyway is generally delivered. As it's also one of the closest tracks to my home, going to watch Lakeside there is a no-brainer. Oh, and finally, in relation to the Lakeside issue. You are wrong.......yet again. I have never paid 17 quid to watch as I get in for free. I was one of their Machine Examiners up until this season. Here's a shovel mate.........want to bury yourself a little deeper? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seem to remember done this before at Perry Barr.. I seem to recall last time they just handed out vouchers to those turning up without and asked them to fill in their personal details on the back,before handing it over for the entrance discount.

david2905 Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 Bjerr had a fight with Bridger after the failed Tac ride. Bjerre had no one to blame but himself for that as Bridger was running 2nd, Danny King 3rd and Bjerre trundling at the back, how can he be moaning at Bridger for that ?, not his fault Kenneth was too slow to pass King is it ?. The Brummies made heavy weather of that, losing a few heats you'd expect them to do well in and R/R did worse than Smoli would of done, so quite relieved to get max points in the end, Barker being the stand out man.
