Your straight talking makes me smile 'Ptbab' ! : ))))))

I get carried away myself at times and have to 'edit' my posts once I've calmed down : )

I applaud the Masons for giving us racing, but I do think they might need to employ someone else to select/sign riders ?

It's difficult to judge I guess, when we don't know who's available and what budget's available ? but surely Hume/Stoneman would be better to have over Agertoft/Wallinger and I can't imagine they'd cost any more ?

It's like one step forward, 2 steps back with every signing we're making lately?

 

No editing here . GA tells everyone on his radio show that people shouldn't give their opinion on the sport or about riders unless its favourable . He loves telling people what they should think or what they should write on social media.  The Truth is Agertoft and Wallinger are utterly useless at this level . That is just a fact .

Its all average related, garrity signing means a modest reserve

One word i would never use for Wally is modest

Or Agertoft might be paying 'us' to ride ???

With Paco & Agertoft paying for their places Brum should be toasting a tidy profit come the end of the season.

Once again the Rebels relying on the big three, Schlein owes us some away points repaying the faith Gary has in him. A must win match for us, can’t see us getting anything from Glasgow when they come down. 

If there is dirt on the track and its heavily watered I`m guessing we will see the same Rory Schlein as I did last Saturday at Berwick.

Covatti and Harris alone, will be good enough for a Somerset win. Schlein always goes well at PB too : (

I think you can guarantee double figures from Schlein when it’s not raining or the track isn’t wet.

Oh dear. Please get your facts straight. I said that adolf hitler would have enjiyed and used social media to his advantage. I said that right at the beginning of the show and before i mentioned my opinion of the remarks made about Chris Harris

 

I never likened anyone particularly anyone connected to speedway to adolf Hitler. And the only reason i am bothering to point this out is because it's good publicity for the show ( thank you for that.)

Was the racing any better this week? Was told they getting some new shale believe it's the same as Swindon are using????

Good meeting in the circumstances, Garrity did well and hopefully can keep it up. Not a lot you can do with tracks when so hot and sunny.

Fear our season is frittering out though.

Conditions/racing was a lot better than last week! I believe there's some 'new' material on its way and it might be in place for the next home meeting?

Fair play to the promotion for doing that for us.......

Well, our season might be 'frittering' out as H Gould puts it? but if Jason Garrity rides like that for our remaining 4 Home fixtures, then ALL fans will be in for a treat!

That boy can ride a bike ! He's 'fearless' ! Best 'thing' I've seen at PB in years! Can't wait to see him in our colours again in 2 weeks! He was that exciting, the match result didn't bother me at all......it was GREAT to see him slaughter Schlein/Harris in Heat 15 and his enthusiasm and celebration was better than some of the racing itself!

He even clocked the fastest time of the night in as late as Heat 12 !!! He just got faster the more he rode!

As for the meeting in general....we ran Somerset a lot closer than I thought we would, although we never looked like winning.

Not wanting to sound too critical, but the manager isn't as tactically astute as I think he could/should be....just my opinion???

The ref let at least 2 start moves go.......Covatti heat 7 which resulted in a Somerset 5-1 (not that it wouldve been any different, if he hadnt moved) and then Garrity moved in Heat 9.....

Praise to Steve Worrall for his efforts.....he'd of scored more had Agertoft not got in his way in Heat 6.

Agertoft still way out his depth and Arnio is just about quicker than the opposing reserves.....

Can't criticise Wallinger as its not his fault that he's been signed.....but the sooner they give his place to a more worthy 'youngster' the better!

To be fair its been frittering out since the season started. An initial weak line up, leading to multiple team changes brought on by injurys and averages. Coming to tapes next season will be the Brummies biggest achievement.
