Wee Eck Posted March 11, 2022 Report Share Posted March 11, 2022 Has anything been confirmed about Pearson - and Ellis - yet or is this all speculation? Vissing is a great signing and one I certainly didn’t see coming. He’ll do a solid job for the Brummies for sure Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Expand Well, let's see, shall we? He's not even signed yet, has he? And if he does, putting pressure on a kid at an early stage and to fill our minds full of expectations won't do anyone any good. I seem to recall us signing a young Danish kid that Erik Gundersen "mentioned", and how far did that get us? If he signs, let's see how he gets on of his own accord, and be nicely surprised if he does well. So, Santa's back...Thank goodness we've got a signing at last. And let's hope that he can achieve what he did at Glasgow in 2019...mind you, that was 3 years ago. He'll be 3 years older, let's hope he's not 3 years rustier and can still bang in some good performances. As for the rumours about Ellis...let's wait and see.

GiveusaB Posted March 11, 2022 Report Share Posted March 11, 2022 Expectations and pressure are traits that all future Champions can and should handle, regardless of age.

GiveusaB Posted March 11, 2022 Report Share Posted March 11, 2022 If these signings are correct...then I bet Laurence Rogers is sitting there smug as.... Fair play to him if he's pulled it off!

Dickie Head Posted March 11, 2022 Report Share Posted March 11, 2022 IF….IF it is to be Adam Ellis, he will be one busy boy. With Premiership, Sweden and Poland (Latvia) already scheduled, another league could be one step too far. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dog Posted March 11, 2022 Report Share Posted March 11, 2022 If it is Pearson, he could be a trump card at reserve but might be difficult in the main body of the team with new tracks to get used to as well.

Expand If Vlad the Invader keeps on rolling there could be an abundance of riders available for; if not the start of the season; soon there after; because Poland are not exactly sitting secure at the minute are they.
