Leicester Hunter Posted June 12, 2014 Report Share Posted June 12, 2014 Maybe not the end of Bartosz Zmarzlik then? Word from Poland is that Adam Skornicki is out for at least 3 months, and that he has accepted a managerial role at Leszno whilst incapacitated as a rider....so should the Brummies ask Zmarzlik to stay on? And would Zmarzlik be tempted to stay? Yes, the Brummies management should ask him to stay on, and one would hope he is tempted to stay. Tough luck on Sqora though, looks like he's going to miss out as the Brummies finally turn the corner. A bit of healthy competition for team places wouldn't have gone amiss at this stage of the season. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brummie Kev Posted June 23, 2014 Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 (edited) It says in the Mail today that Zmarzlik's contract wont be extended after July 3rd, we all thought that may have been the case but it wont be because Skornicki isnt returning. I am disappointed that it wont be extended, would loved to see him do enough meetings to at least become an asset which may have been a benefit to us further down the road. The signing of Bart should have been done with long term ambition in mind, bearing in mind it takes a while for a rider even with the quality he has to adapt to British tracks. Seems there's none of that at Birmingham Edited June 23, 2014 by Brummie Kev Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david2905 Posted June 23, 2014 Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 While I'm disappointed to miss out on a potential asset, I can't blame Phillips if we were constantly going to be dictated to by Polish loonies when he may or may not ride. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is your evidence to support the accusation that these are "Polish loonies"? What a stupid and racist thing to say. Zmarzlik is first and foremost Polish, contracted to Stal Gorzow, and rides under a Polish license. Who the hell are we British to call Poles "loonies" because they look after their own? What right to the British have to expect the Poles to cow-down to us just because it suits us? You talk about the Poles like they are some kind of sub-human species who should be subservient to the British all times. Get real and kick out your delusions of grandeur. In todays world of international speedway, Poland are the dominant force and much as it pains me to say it, but thanks to the BSPA, Britain is very much a third or fourth rate nation now. 5 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevH Posted June 23, 2014 Report Share Posted June 23, 2014 So, if it is the case that Adam Skornicki won't, sadly, be fit enough to resume his position in the team and Bartosz Zmarzlik's contract is not being extended, who is the smart money on to join Birmingham?

SteveLyric2 Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 I see the Brummies have jumped on the Sky Tickets opportunity.. Reduced admission prices right up to 12noon on the day of the home meeting. Hoping to get some quick cash flow I imagine!! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Having just got back from Poland. Their "looney" ways in promoting certainly pays off, something we should be aspiring too not criticising. 3 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flagrag Posted June 24, 2014 Report Share Posted June 24, 2014 (edited) Although Bartosz won't be returning it seems another young Polish rider is coming in to replace Adam Skornicki, I just hope that Birmingham can see the rest of the season out and that a new Promotor can be found to run the club in the long term and secure. A question to Birmingham fans do you think the club would be better supported in the Premier league and if they could secure Saturday night racing ?

Sure the greyhounds will see sense and give up their most popular race night to accommodate speedway ! Not Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
