tellboy Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 Started early but was wondering will Kerr,Rose and Starke be riding for their respective teams.Or will they be riding for their PL teams. Can Kerr and Rose make it from Scunthorpe in time,about 120 mile trip for them if they do ride.And will Starke be riding for Somerset who ride at the same time.Hoping they are all riding at Perry Barr. Going to make a day of it and see what we can do/visit in and around Birmingham before the meeting in the evening. I'm hoping to see a Stars victory which on paper we are capable of but who know's.Speedway's a funny ol game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 Kerr & Rose will be at Brum as they are Lynn assets. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

david2905 Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 Ben is missing guess Mr R R will be used Was a difficult task before we became a British Speedway select 6 side again, 40-50 me thinks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

P T Preece Posted April 14, 2014 Report Share Posted April 14, 2014 This will be tough, after the win over Coventry I thought we had turned a corner, but at Lakeside we went backwards. Would like to see a win, but no BB and Starke, RR didnt work at Lakeside, very very tough meeting. Might find it hard on the crowd as well, hope lots turn up but cant see it. Keep smiling. Come on you Brummies. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Come on you Brummies. Yes, without a doubt a real toughie in prospect, but winnable (I hope). Our old friend Mr Rider Replacement will be used for BB I would think, as the only teams realistically we can chose a guest from are Berwick, Rye House and Workington (but not messrs Grajczonek and Lawson). Weather forecast looks good, hopefully a good crowd will turn out. See you there! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebrum Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 If Brum score 20 i will be surprised! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daniel Smith Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 The Brummie's have gone quiet after these first couple of meetings for them. Would be nice to hear your opinions guys on what's going on?? Although hypothetically it would be great to see the Stars win it would be a sad sight genuinely to see us batter you buy 60+. We must have all teams competitive and Brum right now would get near a mid table Premier League team. Probably Cradley would give them a run on current form, that's how bad it looks from the outsider's looking in. I feel really bad for the fans Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moorski Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 Get the calculator out for the Stars, no Barker & Starke that just makes it harder for Brum, What kind of a line up is that for a Good Friday meeting! Yes Bring back Morris that would be a start!! One sided meetings are not good for the sport, I hope I am wrong on this one but would be pleasantly surprised if Stars don't run away with it.

Guest GiveusaB Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 Fortunately I cant make it on Friday, otherwise my club loyalty would have me endure another battering! I watched KL at Coventry and although I was disappointed with Bjerre's performance, I thought Lambert looked a very exciting prospect! Why on earth would Birmingham agree to a change of race night if it meant 2 members of the team were'nt available? A comfortable 20 point win for KL is my prediction!

Woz01 Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 I dont think R/R will make much difference to Birmingham, it not like Barker has been on form so far. Starke is a big miss though, who will guest? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Starke is a big miss though, who will guest? You're probably right, but we know he can perform on the odd occasion! As for Starke's replacement? it will be any rider that we can get on the cheap? hence why they've used (no disrepect intended) Benji Compton twice already ! Our new team name this season is 'Budget Birmingham' ! I'm just gutted that I'm not going to see Lambert and NKI ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
david2905 Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 The Brummie's have gone quiet after these first couple of meetings for them. Would be nice to hear your opinions guys on what's going on?? To be brutally honest, a cheap team is performing rather like you'd expect, and morale and crowd levels are starting to suffer already. I know people will shout budget at me, but people won't support a side that performs this badly, IMO more needed to be spent on team building to perform better and get more through the gate. Fortunately I cant make it on Friday, otherwise my club loyalty would have me endure another battering!

Why on earth would Birmingham agree to a change of race night if it meant 2 members of the team were'nt available? A comfortable 20 point win for KL is my prediction! I think we usually get good crowds for a good friday meeting, but whoever is thinking about the crowd seems totally oblivious to the teams performance, no point rescheduling for a popular date if no one fancies turning up to watch a yet another likely tonking.

em1500uk Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 Haven't been to Birmingham since our PL days, but I'm intending to head over to Perry Barr on Friday. Stupid question, but what's the best way of getting to the stadium from the M6? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stupid question, but what's the best way of getting to the stadium from the M6? Straight down A34 (Walsall Road) off at Junction 7. Straight road to Perry Barr (Stadium on Left) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigcatdiary Posted April 15, 2014 Report Share Posted April 15, 2014 This has got Brummie slaughter written all over it the only plus is I should think a few stars fans will travel to see it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
