I'd say main asset would be for team manager to be a qualified electrician.:rolleyes:

Paramedic, surely.

Paramedics at Brum are world class....

I wasn't suggesting otherwise. :oops:

I was alluding to the need for "stand-in" paramedics when the regular guys and girls have to disappear off to hospital leading to long delays or abandonment. This joke doesn't work when you have to explain it, eh?

UK M..... Positive discrimination should come into play here.  So a Brummie accent should be high on the agenda for the applicants.  (Martin you know what comes next ;)).   Also to replace the current incumbent a full working knowledge of a calculator is a must.

So Will Pottinger is out of the running for being a Yam Yam :rofl:

Lets see how the would be managers deal with real life events like the phone call from the rider who's van has broken down en-route, or the track curator who's reported that the track tractor has broken down or the shale supplier who's run out of shale.

Tractor & shale are promotions problems not managers. As for riders vans breaking down you said real life events not fictitious ones  :D

Just received a parking ticket for parking in the One Stop (21 Aug Brum v Leicester).

 

Advice please.

errr??? Don't park there next time ?

Sorry....just joking. I'm sure somebody will be able to help. I've never parked there and never would! I've always advised 'visitors' to aim for street parking which is free and closer to the track!

Their is an agreement with "One Stop" Shopping Centre that normally allows 4 hours on Speedway Nights when they are usually very accommodating. Its actually site of the previous Track.

I trust you will remove this fatuous comment given that Birmingham speedway website specifically states parking is available at One Stop (and I think you'll find that it was part of the original planning consent for Birmingham speedway)

I would think that most of the shops are closed or are closing around 5 or 6pm so the car park is emptying to allow supporters to park.
