Its not a secret that Barker can fall out with someone when he is the only person in the room but digging for private details or hoping that others will commit rumour about someones private life to text is just plain wrong. No I wasn't, merely commenting on how the press release read to me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where is Luke Becker based ? i know there is possibly visa issues .I am just thinking if he is based locally travel cost would be minimal and the experience at this level would do him the world of good . You have mentioned our rent cost a few times. What sort of figure do you estimate them to be ? LOL...I used my words (and my imagination) very carefully and I am sure that comparable riders to Adam are on that type of deal...so if Mr Bordeaux needs an Agent...let me know....if he isn't on that type of deal he should be...

The Dog Posted June 9, 2019 Report Share Posted June 9, 2019 On 6/4/2019 at 8:49 AM, HGould said: Can I suggest we all calm down a bit... I don't think we have had a crowd over 500 yet and with big rent to pay we simply can't pay (in my opinion) the £1000 a meeting some of the PL guys will want to ride in CL. I can't imagine Adam is coming for a guarantee of less that £1000 per meeting so just impossible to have 2 like that. Better to look at riders like Stoneman who are hungry and probably on 50 quid a point tops. What exactly are we all supposed to be 'calming' down over? The fact that we've praised the promotion for doing their best? How much is 'big rent'? Perhaps you could enlighten us all. And what makes you think that the Masons can't afford to pay riders? Your right in the fact that Stoneman is hungry and probably cheaper wages than some, but if we had more like him you'd be the first to moan that it was just a NL team. Why not just appreciate what the owners are doing instead of being so negative and picking holes everywhere 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Diamonds85 Posted June 9, 2019 Report Share Posted June 9, 2019 (edited) Hi, I am thinking about going to a Birmingham meeting, the one against Somerset at the end of July. Can someone give me any advice on which are the best (cheapest) hotels to stop in, maybe within walking distance? Where to park my car once I'm at the stadium, how much parking/tickets/programs are... Any advice for a first time visitor would be appreciated, thanks very much. Looking forward to seeing what Birmingham has to offer. Edited June 13, 2019 by JackJack Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No not at all that is what i thought is there likely to be any more movement in our averages by that date ? I do not mind them taking there time tbh . I know a lot of people do not like R/R but for a couple of meetings its OK . Few more quid for our other riders covering his rides hopefully. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
