The club to fold or to continue but always finish last and in debt. Some of you write with glee that the club is doomed, some ask why bother it will be a failure and others just want to moan about who the manager is. Would be nice to read about how pleased some people are that the club is still running. They key is how competitive Brum will be.. Hopefully, the other clubs will support them by not trying to tempt their riders and they can put out a team of a "Premiership level".. It won't help anyone to have a similar scenario to last season where they were always going to be seventh, even before a wheel was turned... A strong Brum will mean a strong Premiership...

Despite the dire situation the sport is in, I cannot believe that a club would hesitate to approach a rider in case it made another team weaker. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sadly, I fear you are correct.. There is a danger of a four team league going forwards... Brum, just making up the numbers, will do no one any favours...

It will ultimately be the riders that decide where they go. Using Brennan as an example, if he contacted Ipswich and asked them for a place, should Ipswich refuse to entertain him because it isn’t fair on Birmingham? I think Birmingham have a problem here. Firstly they’ve publicly declared money issues and have only just cobbled together the finance to state their intentions to run, so what message does that send out to riders who will have options? There’ll be riders they can sign because nobody else will want them with all due respect, but you have to ask the question what can Birmingham afford to pay Brennan or a number 1? They’ll also have concerns about job security. Again, after publicly stating their financial issues, riders may well have concerns about them completing the season. If you’re a rider in demand, do you stay at Birmingham or go for a better pay cheque and job security elsewhere? 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ONTWOMINUTES Posted Wednesday at 06:15 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 06:15 PM Sounding positive that brum will run, this Tolley bloke must have more money than sense after this season just gone. Good luck to all involved and for brummie supporters I really hope it comes to fruition and next season is a good one. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TTT Posted Wednesday at 06:17 PM Report Share Posted Wednesday at 06:17 PM Left side (As posted earlier) built within 39.00, Right side built within 40.00.

British based rider though with a club that's going to be operating on a tight budget seems like a signing Tolley and co would make. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
