Heathen1984 Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 Halder the most wanted 3 pointer at the moment Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uk_martin Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 Maybe the last "serious" (as far as that word applies in this joke sport) meeting of the year before some end of term revalry with Cradley in October. Maybe the last "serious" speedway of an era. Who knows? I wonder how many will venture out to see it? Let's just hope that the weather holds and that the track has time to dry out as it got a right good soaking today. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CUFC_Brummie Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 To say 3 points are required with Kent picking up nothing is a massive understatement. Very happy with Halder at reserve. Sincerely hope it's not the last competitive meeting at Perry Barr for the Brummies, hopefully there'll be an announcement. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StephenMiller Posted September 5, 2017 Report Share Posted September 5, 2017 Let's hope this isn't the end, although the deafening silence on the matter so far doesn't inspire confidence. After all the efforts in resurrecting the club not once but twice, I sincerely hope this isn't the way it ends for the Brummies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Islander15 Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Kent are showing what making the right team changes can do! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GiveusaB Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Luke Bowen led by example....you could see at the parade that he'd got his team fired up for this one! Apart from the brilliant Liam Carr, Birmingham were out fought in every department.....I cant remember our last home meeting where we didnt manage even one heat advantage ??? Good luck to Kent, hope they can go all the way! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
whistlegang Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Bang goes Bowens Max probably the last thing on his mind after this thrashing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sings4Speedway Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Kent appear to be hitting form at bang on the right time for the play offs and the win over Brum does show the gulf of difference between the two sides as this season has progressed. Both sides have been hit hard with injuries / retirements but with very different outcomes as Kent have definitely strengthened Birmingham have struggled to cope with the long tail and finding a solid replacement for Ritchings. Certainly cements Kents play off chances whilst ending Birminghams run over the past few seasons. Whilst its nice to have a little variety at the sharp end of the league the biggest hope is Brum will be back and contesting again next season. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uk_martin Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 One of the "flattest" Brummies performances I can ever remember. Apart from Liam Carr, I don't think any of the riders can look into their pay packets and think to themselves - "yeah, I've earned this".

Sings4Speedway Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Tricky one and certainly no definitive answers to why it was so flat? maybe the question marks surrounding the club dont help? Jack Parkinson-Blackburn & Tom Bacon have been solid all year but have struggled in the higher tiers and maybe a little fatigued? Layne Cupitt started the season so promisingly but has tailed off the past few weeks, Jamie Halder was just a guest, Taylor Hampshire isn't ready for NL in terms of equipment, mentality or speed and sadly David Mason has gone out and embarrassed himself again with another lack luster display (or is he dropping his average dramatically for next year?)

brianbuck Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 Brummies were second best all night and this was the poorest display I have seen from the team (with the 3 obvious exceptions of course) for a very long time. Well done Kent on a thoroughly convincing win, and good luck in the play-off's. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ProudtobeaBrummie Posted September 7, 2017 Report Share Posted September 7, 2017 The funniest thing is they have pinned all there hopes on hss who without been overly rude are as thick as two short planks.. They haven't got a clue enthusiasm yes but it ends there they are truly and utterly clueless. Why do you think no one with a brain cell is supporting the lion farm project ??? because they know there is zero chance of it happening Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
