Or postponed it? What's the rush anyway? We all know the final of the Summer Trophy won't be until the autumn and since when did Poole ride on a Friday? They've been going on for the last few seasons how it had to be Wednesday's... and there'll be no clash with Birmingham being the other Wednesday track as their last match is August the 10th Edited July 29, 2022 by iainb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's what the Brummies are doing on their Social Media posts. One thing's for certain, one way or another, it will absolutely live up to that billing. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IainB Posted July 29, 2022 Report Share Posted July 29, 2022 (edited) Fair enough about Middlo's testimonial, but really this match should not be going ahead tonight (as an "official" fixture), it makes a complete mockery of the sport and i think, correct me if I'm wrong, sets a new precedent on how many riders is acceptable to make a team Edited July 29, 2022 by iainb Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Steve Shovlar Posted July 29, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 29, 2022 Just got in and seen the Brum team. Absolutely disgusting effort from the Brum promotion. Thing is most speedway fans will turn up clueless of the team makeup plus there’s a lot of tourists about so the attendance might not be too bad. However this has 65-25 written all over it. As a Poole fan I will be there. I don’t pick and choose my meetings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As they are going to lose a lot from paying the riders as it is. What a hero you are!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
