Gerbat1875 Posted March 21, 2022 Report Share Posted March 21, 2022 Brummies will probably reveal the final rider on Wednesday, I did hear a small rumour about someone coming out of retirement to sign, Bjarne Pedersen... Doubt if its true, knowing Brummies luck it will be Brent Werner haha Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speed29 Posted March 21, 2022 Report Share Posted March 21, 2022 I like see Max Ruml be in Brummies, well his brother Dillon is in Poole Pirates. I wish Max be in British League as well, but wait and see. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dillon not Max who I think I heard had a full time job in the US so wouldn't come across despite seeming to be much improved since his spell at Edinburgh Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is widely unpopular at Perry Barr, and would only disincentivise fans from wanting to go again.

The 1,000 figure may have been reduced, depends on what the deal is with new sponsorship deal with Curtis printers. Quite possible that the programmes will be printed at a greatly reduced cost or even better for free. This would allow the club another way to make some extra money alongside the money they make from fans going through the turnstiles. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Dog Posted March 22, 2022 Report Share Posted March 22, 2022 Only in speedway could a team like Leicester name their riding order before Brummies have even named their team... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There should be a deadline well in front of the season start shouldnt there.? If nothing else so you can market the riders and also (if required), step in and not allow teams who dont reach a minimum standard, as this helps no one, especially the sport itself..

flagrag Posted March 22, 2022 Report Share Posted March 22, 2022 Birmingham have their team it’s just waiting for them to announce it or will it just be a case of come to Leicester on Saturday to find out ? Some of these issues have been caused by a rider having their arm twisted to ride for Birmingham as No1 then trying to back track saying if you can get anyone else I will drop out as they are not fussed about starting in Championship in 2022 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can't ever remember that not happening before I think Coventry had a press and practice in the early 90's with only half a team signed. 2 hours ago, Racin Jason 72 said: Thomas Jorgensen maybe I would doubt it unless it's a short term deal. He'll be riding for Brovst in Denmark on Wednesdays. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HGould Posted March 22, 2022 Report Share Posted March 22, 2022 If rumours from reliable sources are correct we won't be allowed to sign riders who will miss more matches than they ride in and who would miss the majority of home matches and significant numbers away. As a Brummies fan that's worrying and frustrating but if the BSPL are blocking moves to protect us and all other Clubs, I actually understand that because a club that would be reliant on guests more often than not cannot be good for us or the sport. Injuries facilitating guests are down to bad luck and can be justified. Absences due to prior commitments I believe are a different matter. Hopefully the issues can be resolved for both the Brummies and the BSPL. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If true, I'm not sure how blocking riders for a team place just because they can't fulfil all the matches protects a club like Birmingham who could potentially go into their first meeting on Saturday with only 6 signed riders...?

Fast forward to Saturday. Three riders come to the tapes for heat 1 at Leicester. The two minute buzzer is sounded for the rider in white. Brum will finally have to finally crack and announce their number one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
