*JJ Posted November 24, 2019 Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 Has Paul Starke signed for anyone yet? He is a Midlander. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProudtobeaBrummie Posted November 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 starke would leave us with over a point remaining . Not quite a heat leader really but a good second string at this level . Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dandelion Posted November 24, 2019 Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 (edited) What about Ben Barker as the final rider? 7.06 after a reduction... My prediction for Birmingham, after the agm and Harris/Garrity was signed was 1. Chris Harris 2. James Shanes 3. Jason Garrity 4. Ashley Morris 5. Adam Ellis 6. Tom Bacon 7. Nathan Stoneman (Or another 2.00er) I'd pay double to watch that team every week around Perry Bar, even if I am travelling from up north Not quite worked out like this, but Paco and Ben instead of Tom and Adam and Jack Thomas instead of Stoneman at resevre... isn't bad either Looking good for the Brummies next season... Jealous of Ashley the most... Edited November 24, 2019 by Dandelion Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ProudtobeaBrummie Posted November 24, 2019 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 The Management apparently are not keen on taking on Ben Barker and his baggage . Personally i agree . As much as he is box office around perry barr ,i do not want anyone like him connected or associated with my club .How many options has he actually got these days ?

GiveusaB Posted November 24, 2019 Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 Matt Whethers would be my choice from what's available Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree, wouldn't want Ben in my team for the exact same reasons, just thought he's a former Brummies and would complete a 6/7 British team 10 minutes ago, GiveusaB said: Matt Whethers would be my choice from what's available NOOOO!! You've already got Ashley... Don't take Matty too Not to mention my favourite Finn went to my least favourite team... It's nearly as bad as Robbo signing for Redcar a few years back... 8 minutes ago, poolebolton said: THJ Thought he's be at Poole... I like THJ...

GiveusaB Posted November 24, 2019 Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 I also thought that THJ would naturally sign for Poole? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
poolebolton Posted November 24, 2019 Report Share Posted November 24, 2019 No, not at all poole. Sounds like he will be with you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know enough about him to make a judgement.....would have to trust LR's selection skills and he's done a great job so far for 2020 Edited November 24, 2019 by GiveusaB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the most talented Swede since Lindgren & Lindback, but probably a little past his best now. Had a poor 2019 season. He was a GP rider 5ish years ago. Never really fully committed to Britain. If he has no Polish commitments & decides British Speedway for him in 2020 riding in both leagues he could be a revelation. I have my doubts. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
