Dave Jones Posted October 1, 2023 Report Share Posted October 1, 2023 With Stewart Dickson moving on that leaves a nice little slot for "Grizzly Adams"as TM.. So that's a starting point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HGould Posted October 2, 2023 Report Share Posted October 2, 2023 You have to live in the West Midlands I guess to appreciate just how long, tedious and often impossible it would be for the majority of Wolves fans to get to Perry Barr on a mOnday night after work for 7.30pm. I'd guess that the majority of the Wolves support would come from parts of the Black Country that would require a tortuous drive down The Black Country Route or the old Birmingham New Road to get to the Great Barr Area and meaning that the slightest issue on the M5/M6 interchange there would create enough traffic chaos to put them completely off. I'd argu that if Brummies do want to pull in Wolves fans the best option would be on a weekend (which doesn't seem to tie in with PB being available). Its one thing for an Away fan to have a day or afternoon off and try to get to PB, completely different to face that torture week after week. I'd assess Wolves average is 2.5 - 3x that of Brummies so can't see how Brummies can be financually viable in the PL as a few have pointed out. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FishersGate Posted October 2, 2023 Report Share Posted October 2, 2023 Just listened to that Birmingham speedway podcast with nigel tolley. Pretty much confirms that the only way Birmingham are running next year is by moving to the premiership. He even said he's spoken to Phil Morris and can make it financially work. He also said it excited him with sponsors and Birmingham being on the TV. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Petecc Posted October 2, 2023 Report Share Posted October 2, 2023 Now that the podcast has been released, 1. There is no tie in with wolves 2.monday nights only 3.premiership 4.mr Dickson has moved on 5. Stop moaning about it and trying to put everything down. Look to the positives and support the club and applaud Nigel Tolley for his efforts & cash. If the club runs premiership it's still running. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can imagine that would really grate on the Birmingham supporters, especially when inevitably the majority on this forum will just refer to them as “Wolves” when the meeting threads start.

Aries Posted October 2, 2023 Report Share Posted October 2, 2023 20 hours ago, Skidder1 said: Mondays and Thursdays are only 'priority' nights in the Prem, so just avoid team building with any double uppers. That would be virtually impossible. It’s not just Birmingham is it, it’s every other club too that would have to visit there on a Monday without half their team. Mondays and Thursdays are Premiership nights. No championship fixtures could, or will, be played out on those nights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GiveusaB Posted October 2, 2023 Report Share Posted October 2, 2023 Sounds promising for 2024! What's in a name apart from 'ego'? Premiership speedway.....possibly, Douglas/Becker/Masters/Z,Cook lining up at PB every week? C'mon....'what's not to 'like' about that ?
