Good news for Brummies fans, I keep reading on fb that King's Lynn are going to get the wooden spoon lol!

They will unless more changes are made at KL imo.

Both teams are as bad as each other now but the difference is Birmingham have a young team with riders who can improve as the season goes on where's King's Lynn don't.

1-5's are on par with each other but Brum are stronger at reserve.

I think Rowe is better than Flint!

I agree 100%.

But Wojdylo is struggling badly so as a combination Cook/Flint is stronger than Wojdylo/Rowe.

What's up with Wojdylo do you think?  He was flying last year!

Struggling to get his machinery to adapt to British tracks apparently.

He’s doing ok in Poland,but it’s totally different game over here.Tracks are prepared to a standard in Poland and are pretty consistent ,over here they  have no idea what the track will be like from one week to another.Various excuses accepted.

Stop talking sense, that's not allowed on here.

He must hit the ground running and be able to ride tracks he's never seen before from day 1!! Tut tut.

It's not his fault that Birmingham have been build so poorly, he's a solid rider but to be thrown in the deep end at number 1, partnered with Tom or Steve (two experienced campaigners) and against the likes of Jack Holder, Tai Woffinden, Maciej Janowski, Emil Sayfutdinov, Jason Doyle, Chris Harris. He's never going to score to his assessed 7.50 average now is he? He should be at number 3 or 4 (against the Josh Pickering, Nicolai Klindt, Charles Wright, Danny Kings of the league) with a solid team around him.

Yes sadly Birmingham had riders assessed UP when most teams want riders on low false averages.

Unfortunately for the Brummies he has come into our league which is at its strongest in 12 years or more so it was always going to be tough for him.

That said he is a very capable rider.

Seen a few "sign Zagar" suggestions. I'm not sure he'd be a great signing on a 7.20 average, as at Belle Vue he averaged 9.37 at home and 5.68 away. But even if he drops his average by virtue of not having the NSS as his home track, should still be better than Lampart.

So this is actually a scenario where a team could happily sign a rider they expect to drop his average?

Lampart's new average is just above Milik's new average, so Milik at reserve till June. Should score well from there.

Agreed will also give him a bit of confidence if he gets a few wins under his belt to go back to either 1 or 5

Not a chance he'll go back to number 1.

Probably best to start looking for a replacement for Millik...he's a waste of time/money....

Rory Schlein would do better!

Schlein?? You need to go for a proper number one if you are getting rid of Milik.

surely go spend the big bucks and go for Freddie and Robert Lambert. Get rid of pawlicki as well

Why on earth didnt B'ham sign Craig Cook ???

Let's not get too excited about Cookie just because he had an exceptional night against Sheffield, we all know what he's like.

In all honesty this Brum team aint to bad, but and I say this honestly Nigel Tolley needs to put his money where his mouth is and sign a proper No1, they have plenty of room points wise for a proper No1 and NT did say they had a choice of riders pre season, get a No1 and be in the shake up for the piss up's or stay as they are and simply make up the numbers, which really is unfair not only for the supporters but for the other riders in the Team that are busting a gut to try for a win, but being let down by management.
