ProudtobeaBrummie Posted February 27, 2018 Report Share Posted February 27, 2018 Why else do you think it's took so long just waiting for everything to be cleared then the moaning and win at all costs starts Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pete cc Posted February 27, 2018 Report Share Posted February 27, 2018 Win at all costs? Who in their right mind enters a competition and doesn't want to win. Whoever brum sign will just have to be right for brum, nothing to do with anybody else, be it complete new comer or polish junior with a shiny new passport. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest GiveusaB Posted February 28, 2018 Report Share Posted February 28, 2018 The way I see the team this year, is 'not' win at all costs? But more like 'entertain' the best we can, with a common sense approach ? I think our new management are doing a fantastic job of trying to entice 'new comers' to the sport, more so, targeting the 'youth' market, after all, they are the future of keeping the team/sport alive!

Anyway, if it is the rider rumoured, he is a teenager who has been living in this country for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once is a mistake, twice is careless Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the point of dragging on the announcement of the 7th rider any more? Cut out the messing and the guessing. It's only a #7 FFS, it's not like everyone's holding their breath for a new world beating superstar #1 to be announced. Let's just have the announcement and let's get on with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

greyhoundp Posted March 2, 2018 Report Share Posted March 2, 2018 Maybe they cant announce who the new rider is until certain, immigration clearances have been obtained, its pretty obvious they know the rider they want having put Roberts in as the No 8.

The whole point is that he may become a new superstar No. 1, like Zach W and JPB! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF it is who i believe then no chance of that situation happening. Quite likely to do alright but also likely to get some shale rash during the season. Will have done well to finish on a 5 point ave. Flint on the other hand has true pedigree and for him the skies the limit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What's the matter? Is he holed up in "The Jungle" in Calais, or something? I thought that the the NL was supposed to be about British riders, not foreigners. Are Birmingham now going down the rule bending route that Poole & co get accused of? For Christs sake, it's going to be a 3 point average, 7th best rider in a 3rd division team in a 2nd rate league in the speedway's equivalent of the Third World. I wish they'd just cut through the crap and get on with it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
