Brummie Boy Posted December 13, 2024 Report Share Posted December 13, 2024 If the comment about the final lineup coming in well below the limit, turns out to be the case then that will be so disappointing for most fans. Especially those that have purchased season tickets in the hope The Brummies were going to be a more competitive outfit in 2025. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would think Chris Louis was enquiring about Tom's availability before the 2024 season was over. Not that I see anything wrong with that. As for Zach, I think any goodwill on his behalf was lost when he was dropped in preference to a couple of other riders who should have gone. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTT Posted December 13, 2024 Report Share Posted December 13, 2024 So are we now ruling out Nilsson and Thorssell? They surely would've been announced tonight if they were the last two as rumoured.

HGould Posted December 14, 2024 Report Share Posted December 14, 2024 (edited) Its the glimmers of hope and expectation, which then fade that kills the enthusiasm. One slight glimmer long term (may be 4-5 years) Knighthead who have pumped tens of millions in to the dark side (Birmingham City) to develop 65 acres on the East Side including Wheels Site for a new 65000 seater stadium for 2030 have been announced as main bidders for a second Cricket 100 franchise to run out of Edgbaston. They also have indoor arena plan at Wheels to attract Basketball (Birmingham had very successful Basketball team under Nick Nurse (now NBL) a few decades back playing out of Aston and other locations and they also want to use it for Ice Hockey. A few rumours they are sniffing round the once legendary Moseley Rugby Club - one of the top 4-5 in UK pre professional game. They want all branded "Birmingham" Sports. Tolley and Rogers really need to get their backsides in to some meetings with these guys as no reason surely why an Oval Raceway can't be part of the plans, it's a huge site and getting bigger as they acquire more and more and Council who are strapped for cash are selling off on the cheap with provision Knighthead clear out all the contaminated land - which will cost tens of millions.

szkocjasid Posted December 14, 2024 Report Share Posted December 14, 2024 Justin Sedgmen averaged 6.18 (6.79 with bonus) in his 7 Birmingham matches this year. The fact he's available on 4.79 makes him a very useful signing, especially when you consider he could start at reserve (his above average was in the top 5). But that potential gain for the team will be nullified of they can't build to the points limit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
