It will need much more than 1 guest for the Brummies to get something out of this, but tell me do you like to see decent opposition or prefer to see weak opponents ?, our old saying was happiness is 40-38, usually not much fun watching 60-30 week in week out.

I can assure you that there are continuing efforts to bring Cradley Heathens back, however we more often than not bump into the wall of ignore when approaching landowners to lease land for Speedway, more recently we seem to have received the same response (or lack of it) from Dudley Councillors when contacting them about relocation, I personally am of the opinion that we should now be setting up a PR campaign actually criticising the Council for it's lack of help in identifying a suitable site and telling us why such and such a site is not suitable, they the Council have NEVER said no that site is suitable but if you could do this maybe it could be considered, it's obvious after 28 years or so without a Track there is no ideal site in Dudley which is not helped by the Councils attitude.

I'm pretty sure Dave Parry (Parry's Coaches) has contacts around the Cheslyn Hay area whether or not that would be to far for Wolverhampton fans I have no idea but it would'nt surprise me if some land was found around that area.

Whatever help Wolverhampton council give to Wolves Speedway will be better than what Cradley have received from Dudley Council, we can't even get a reply to emails sent to various Councillors with regards possible new locations, it almost seems that we have been placed on ignore hoping that we will go away.

Sorry to say Pirates were like F1 out of the starts whereas Brum were walking out, feel sorry for the Promoter and the crowd they deserve better, maybe it's unfair to compare Brum with Poole but the Brummies were miles off it, I think Starkey is finished, Danny disappointing, Sedgy chalk and cheese comparing his Brum and Leicester scores, Batch a reasonable return but all in all Brum beaten by a far better team, I do believe I can see young Sam getting to grips with the Championship he certainly likes to ride the wide lines.

Or wack a ball over a net and scream, Now I know Speedway in the UK is down and almost out, but I have never in all my life known anyone that plays Tennis let alone anyone that watches it except for the annual bash at SW19, yet we get daily updates on numerous media outlets, I guess Speedway fans don't have BBC accents .

Are his parents not over here ?, I'm sure Lee and Wendy were living somewhere locally ever since Nick was riding over here, maybe I thought wrong.

AS others have said plenty to see and do in and around Brum but beware of the clean air zone if you plan on driving into the city centre. https://www.brumbreathes.co.uk/info/25/welcome-2/45/charges-operation-1 Enjoy your journey up.

According to updates it was Matthew Ware, not a name I am familiar with.

Tonights cricket at Edgbaston was a T20 QF Warwickshire Bears v Essex Eagles, 3 hours of almost none stop action in a modern Stadium all for £10 per ticket, that's the price Richard Willford said on Radio WM tonight, and that is the kind of competition Speedway is up against and really has no chance of winning as things stand.

I think BrizHeathen means the opportunity to have either Bowtell, Nielsen or Starke at reserve for the remainder of the season, if they are all fit and well then whichever one is at reserve surely should score a good few points, rare opportunity to see Starkey having a shortish journey for his home meetings.

The averages fit, the question is are they both fit and well and it would mean that one of either Bowtell, Starke or Nielsen would be at reserve for some part of the season.

M6 without any shadow of doubt is the worst Motorway in the country, but I am sure there are a few contenders for the title of worst Motorway maybe we could have a worst pairs ie M6 & M25 anyone ?.

Comments from John Louis about the role of Phil Morris “We want to enhance the professionalism and integrity of the league, as well as making it simple, transparent and fun for the fans to view and understand, and to improve the product and put British speedway back at the top of the tree. Phil can help us do that.” So much for the integrity following on from the none appearance of Laguta at Monmore on Monday.

Don't forget Plymouth and Buxton, but I think it's best to give IOW a miss .

With only a few days left to see out June will we get news of the meeting that the Promotion are due to have (late June) with the landlords of Perry Barr or will it be silence ?, whatever the outcome of the meeting I would hope that we get a press release, This meeting will have a bearing on Speedway in the West Midlands and I hope the outcome will be positive.

I take it you mean a Budget as in each individual Team ?, because if it's the same budget for every team there is no way of policing it, as it stands we don't have a monetary budget but we have a points limit/budget and that doesn't work either, lets face it Kings Lynn should be in the Championship and so should Peterborough but for the sake of British speedway having a Premier League and a bit of TV money Buster kept both of them in a League where they are making it a joke League, RIP British speedway with these clowns running it.

https://bclm.com/ which has bostin Fish & Chips or https://www.draytonmanor.co.uk/ and near to that is https://clifflakes.co.uk/ Im sure your 6 year old would enjoy both, should be well tired by the time he gets to the Speedway .

I would not be surprised if you prove to be correct, because if you do get an opportunity to strengthen up due to points you would be foolish not to take it.

Enjoy the meeting, one thing for sure it aint going to get rained off, I think i might well come along myself. Oh by the way get yourself some food before you go in the Stadium, the food inside is expensive and not great value for money.

From a pretty reliable source, I don't think there was to much help and advice coming from the more senior riders, and that is vital for youngsters trying to make there way in the Sport, personally I think they were probably to busy trying to sort out there own issues.

Well they haven't signed a new Aussie but have an old Aussie, there are a few of them over at Edgbaston as well , as for Sam he is young and will only get better he is British, fair play to Brum for giving it a go.

They have obviously signed someone to replace James Pearson (Sam Hagon ?) and Kenyan Rew to replace James Wright would be a very good signing, they simply have to beat Berwick at Perry Barr on wednesday if they are to have any hope of making the play offs.

The 2 names that I have heard mentioned are one newcomer and one old hand ie Rew and Andersen, would they both fit ?, I think Rew would be a very good signing, Andersen is just earning his pension money these days.

This gives the Brummies a tiny bit extra to utilise the 4 points average that James was on, Sam Hagon anyone ?, because I think to strengthen the top end they will need a 2 pointer Hagon for Pearson, they seem to be similar riders average wise in the NDL but Sam's Championship average is 2 as opposed to James 4 points which gives Brum more to play with average wise, bad luck on James but it seems the new manager is not messing around.
