Also did a decent job for Leicester as their RS, posting a better first season average than the likes of Jenkins, Plain, Edwards & Thomas did! Maybe it is harsh, let's see. I just remember so many others who went on to the top and the rapid progress they made. Maybe am unfair comparison but Loram Louis Screen Lee Nicholls and others. Joe doesn't even ride like he wants to go faster. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiveusaB Posted June 16, 2023 Report Share Posted June 16, 2023 (edited) From the current averages...Morris = 9.10Sedgemen = 7.33Bowtell = 5.25Pearson = 3.38Thompson (D) = 5.66Total = 30.72Leaving 9.28 for 2 riders ? just guessing that this might be the way forward atm ? Desparately need Morris to up his game away and Sedgemen to put 2/3 points on at home ? Edited June 16, 2023 by GiveusaB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedwayTShirts Posted June 16, 2023 Report Share Posted June 16, 2023 (edited) Don't know his average but an ex Brummies star like Smoli would put some extra bums on seats, and have Lee Complin guest as often as possible seeing as we couldn't capture his signature this season.

Don't think you're looking for two 4 point riders. Don't think anyone available on 6.66. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He said that moving to Monday or Friday next year were the options and very surprisingly didn't rule out going Premiership. Also said they'd have a new rider for next week. However he did think that they'd constructed a competitive team for the start of season but were beset with bad luck. And still thought they could make the playoffs 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would not discount wholesale changes but are the riders available to be able to do that?, Birmingham Speedway is already costing Nigel so what's a few more thousand to get a top top rider.

bloom89 Posted June 17, 2023 Report Share Posted June 17, 2023 James Pearson has been dropped. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This gives the Brummies a tiny bit extra to utilise the 4 points average that James was on, Sam Hagon anyone ?, because I think to strengthen the top end they will need a 2 pointer Hagon for Pearson, they seem to be similar riders average wise in the NDL but Sam's Championship average is 2 as opposed to James 4 points which gives Brum more to play with average wise, bad luck on James but it seems the new manager is not messing around.
