Deano Posted August 23, 2023 Report Share Posted August 23, 2023 (edited) Doubt it. Josh is good and I love it when he comes to PB, but he isn't a number one. Edited August 23, 2023 by Deano 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Historian Posted August 23, 2023 Report Share Posted August 23, 2023 I had a chat with Andy Grahame who is in the pits most weeks, he said there is no team spirit at PB, 7 individuals, nobody geeing each other up, heads go down and they beat them selves. They let track conditions psyche themselves out. We may have a manager who is tactically savvy but is he a motivator, Hmmmm. Bring back Phil Morris the best manager we ever had. Nielson and Starke aint that bad , something is wrong in the camp?. I have noticed when things get tough most teams have a team huddle to gee things up, not seen one with the Brummies.

I have been told this by someone on the inside ie no-one going round chatting to riders or very little chat between riders, I noticed tonight Picko giving advice to other riders due out in Ht 2 and doing it again later in the meeting, I feel so sorry for the Brum fans, the support staff, NT and LR who put so much in to keeping the Brummies on Track, they deserve much more than what they are seeing this season, I will add that the Perry Barr track is something of a gaters track yes I have seen some overtaking but it is usually the odd pass during a meeting, some might say the Birmingham track is to fair, I might say in reply it is gate & go, plus the home team seem to think it varies from one week to the next which cannot help with set ups.

GiveusaB Posted August 24, 2023 Report Share Posted August 24, 2023 Looked to me as though B'ham tried to prepare a surface that would stifle Scunthorpe, but it clearly back-fired! As for rider performances (or lack of...)? I've been around long enough to know when riders are deliberately riding poorly to lower their 'final' average, in order to get a team place somewhere next season. Say no more! Apart from....I've not seen a guest rider as committed with the guts/passion/pride that Josh Pickering showed last night! He was worth my £20 entrance fee....as for the other 6 B'ham riders (with may be the exception of Sedgemen...) no comment! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prior to last night's meeting, Starke had shown a slight upturn in form.... paid 9 in away win at Berwick and paid 11 in slender defeat away at Redcar.... But unfortunately, hasn't done as well as we expected....he was still worth a gamble IMO! The damage was done by the previous manager this season, at least Dickson had a go!
