Honestly looking at the teams I'd have Brummies down for a 2 points win, but they have a knack of riding terribly whenever they look to have a chance, so can easily see them lose every match for the rest of the season. Don’t suppose you’ve got Saturday’s Lotto numbers have you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Racin Jason 72 Posted August 12 Report Share Posted August 12 (edited) Plumes of dust from heat one. Blue groove from heat 8. Compare that to Belle vue who had neither. the riders need a decent stage to perform. Edited August 12 by Racin Jason 72 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SJA Posted August 13 Report Share Posted August 13 With the weather forecast being dry and hot all day why not try to get more water into the track during the day? I thought the track prep was poor. Is it always to that standard at Birmingham? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I thought the track prep was poor. Is it always to that standard at Birmingham? They should've sacked Pawlicki and bought a decent bowser with the money saved. The track prep has been inadequate for most meetings. In fact, the time that the track was prepared well, B'ham actually won (v Belle Vue) Can't see many turning up next year (if they continue) unless something is done about the surface. It will be hard to attract decent riders....'who wants to race on that every week'.....'let alone watch it' ?! (unless you're a good gater of course....) 😃 Edited August 13 by GiveusaB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kurtz rode in GP qualifer on the Saturday after Tuesday being injured in Sweden then missed b/vue on the Monday he aggravated the injury he was pictured in a protective boot as for musielak we all know what's gone on and Basso doing exactly the same suits Chapman not to pay them &flights you reap what you sow as the phrase says 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure there will be a next season given that its contingent on the greyhound racing continuing for another year (thought they were clearing off at the end of 2024 ?) Tolley said it would cost then 4-5 times current level of expense to take on the stadium lease 🤯 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LagutaRacingFan Posted August 13 Report Share Posted August 13 @stevebrum Please provide an explanation for Lindgren. Birmingham's decision to sign Lindgren ahead of Laguta looks like the biggest mistake in the history of British Speedway. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
