secsy1 Posted September 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted September 13, 2016 I cannot believe the apathy towards this meeting as the best prospects for British Speedway will be on duty at the meeting. Not well publicized by either Birmingham or BSPA and no one on here cares!!!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brummie Kev Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 Im very much looking to this, its the future of this country and a decent line up. Admission prices remain the same as a normal Brummies match. I know people will look to Bewley or Clegg to win this but dont right off James Shanes, if theres a dirt line on the outside i honestly wouldnt rule him out. He was superb last week!. Hoping JPB and Smithy do well on their home track. Gonna leave early as the Villa are playing at home and the traffic will queue down the Aldridge road, shouldnt affect fans coming from the motorway or the A34. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bagpuss Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 I think Clegg could start 15m back in all his races and still win at a canter considering the injuries to others. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bagpuss Posted September 14, 2016 Report Share Posted September 14, 2016 If Bewley is riding then he has a chance, was under the impression he was out for the season. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sings4Speedway Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 You are right mate, just found out now I'm bloody here! Hate it when actual riding lists aren't declared in advance when its obvious that riders won't be there but clubs still advertise them in the line ups right until the last second. Congratulations to all who competed. Surprised to see Jack Smith included as he was withdrawn on Monday following a head injury which i thought invoked the concussion ruling?

That was the actual point of the tread as no one could name the line up until last minute, that prevented me from going. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
foamfence Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 Did Greaves really hurt his hand, or was it one of his tantrums? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ommer Mon Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 Well done Cleggy! Excellent result for someone who is turning into quite a talent. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brummie Kev Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 I enjoyed the meeting, total respect for ALL the riders for putting on a show. Disappointed that Bewley couldn't ride as maybe Max Clegg wouldn't have won it so easy. Still congratulations to Max, he deserved it. Didn't always gate, in the heat with Perks, he passed him on the back straight. Then Heat 20, Shanes had the beating of him right up-to the last bend, when Max got Shanes on the line to win the title. Great way to win it. So happy for Jack Smith that was a great podium. Very impressed with Layne Cupitt, he rode well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
