Dave_minall Posted July 22, 2024 Report Share Posted July 22, 2024 Who's the track man at Birmingham? Every time management from Birmingham are interviewed they say the track isn't as expected. Surely they should consider sacking him and getting a professional in. Professional tracks should never see a blue groove - it's abysmal.

bigcatdiary Posted July 22, 2024 Report Share Posted July 22, 2024 Track surface was a complete joke, meeting itself apart from the odd race was just gate and go and quite why it wasn’t watered properly is beyond me. Closeness of the meeting was the only thing that kept the interest but Sheffield got the killer blow in heat 12 and it just left the Brummies with an impossible job. They should never have got rid of Zach Cook that’s very clear, Ermolenko clearly hasn’t got a clue and Tolley just looks ridiculous. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnieg Posted July 22, 2024 Report Share Posted July 22, 2024 Such a shame foe Birmingham they couldn't have Zach Cook every week. ... what ? They chose to get rid of him!!! PS has Pawlicki's finger been relocated yet? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a huge shame because the lack of a professional track man is hampering the team performance and therefore the crowds. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

1stbender Posted July 22, 2024 Report Share Posted July 22, 2024 Birmingham is a crazy place. You’ve got the owner going around like a poor man’s Gandalf. There sacked rider guesting and had a good night and ended winning rider of the night. Another meeting where the “track” is the issue. Lampart going from a man on form in his first two rides to struggling to pass wind for the rest of the night. Freddie’s comments at the end about positivity and team work in the pits with Paco etc being in there, is that a dig at those missing not being “team players”. I thought Lynn was bad….
