Steve Shovlar Posted March 12, 2022 Report Share Posted March 12, 2022 Good to finally read that Birmingham have got a team together. Was worried at one stage they might not even come to tapes. If this touted team cones to fruition, they should be strong at home, and a team winning in front,of its home fans is paramount. Weak teams do the league no good. Let’s hope the Brum fans support their club in decent numbers. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not yet...still only 5/7 of the way there. The rest is pure speculation. No doubt I'll get hammered again for not getting carried away and for relying on facts rather than fantasy, but hey ho. Now that Santa's signed, let's wait and see what other presents we get. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

proud panther Posted March 14, 2022 Report Share Posted March 14, 2022 Really hope Adam Ellis is the final rider. Would make the team play off material in my opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
IronScorpion Posted March 14, 2022 Report Share Posted March 14, 2022 I have just seen that Vissing is classed as a newcomer for Holsted in 2022 so must have back tracked on that decision to sign for Birmingham. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Regulation 010.2.2 Assessed MAs Riders new to Championship League racing are categorised as follows: - a) a rider riding in Danish, Swedish or Polish Leagues in a previous or current season will enter on a 5.00 MA b) a rider who has never ridden in a Danish, Swedish or Polish league will enter on a 4.00 MA So it looks like he will indeed be on 4.00 ... unless he rides in Poland before his debut for Brum?!

I expect his Danish league appearances from last season (for Fjelsted) will be ignored as they were Div 2 (similar level to NDL), so 4.00 would be my expectation.

It took the 2022 Championship Predictions thread 11 pages to conclude that the race to win the Wooden Spoon would be a close-run thing between Birmingham and Newcastle. How many more pages will it take for everyone on there to change their minds and have the Brummies in the top 4? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
