Will Roooooooooooooooo Boy have the track how he likes it?

How many knobs will be lost on the track the tonight?

Score Rebels 55 Brums 35 i.e. that's Birmingham to 20 points over 15 heats! However I would loved to be proved wrong Lawrence Rogers.............

Rebels will definitely hit over 60 tonight.A bumper pay packet for the home riders.This Birmingham team reminds me of the weak Mildenhall team of years gone by when they were thrashed at the Ota.

We hit 70 one year against one of Lawrence's Mildenhall teams! From memory we had 6 paid maximums that night!

We (B'ham) look considerably weaker than we did before a wheel was turned at the start of the season???

Obviously the 2 injured riders isn't helping.....but Hume and 'more so' Agertoft, have weakened us considerably. Strange decision???

How has Hume replacing Stoneman made you weaker? ? i presume Morris and Arnio will be back soon as well.

Any idea on the crowds / atmosphere? I would imagine this one was a bit of a quiet damp squib?  

The crowd was decent, as was the racing. The scoreline doesn't do Brum justice, they kept it close for the majority of the meeting.

The track had new shale added this week. No blue line.

Times were quick.

Track was smooth after grading. Took a few riders to get used to it...Henry Atkins was lucky to walk away after lifting whilst leading...smacked the air fence straight on at speed.

All in all a good meeting, well presented and fluently.

Worth the admission alone to watch Ben Barker team ride excellently with Rowe for four laps...just like the old days...was a pleasure to watch.

Replace Rowe with Jack Smith earlier this season at Redcar. Ben taking his left hand off the 'bars and pointing to where he wanted Jack to go.

 

Awful shame his baggage got too heavy for the club to continue carrying.

 

He'll probably take our half a team to the cleaners tomorrow, but hey that's life.

Quite right about Danyon and my 'frustration/question' isn't aimed at him, however I don't think his signing has strengthened us..... I thought Nathan was doing a great job and shouldn't have been dropped imo.

Danyon is/was a fans favourite and I'm sure he'll get dialled in after a few meetings....he's great to watch when on form
