stevec 300 Posted October 19, 2016 Not a fan of the play offs but i guess its kept the league open for fans to follow other wise it was all over in August, Ask Belle Vue about the pain but it was good for the sport and good for the fans but not everyone is going to win. Looking forward to this one tonight but cant get there so will listen to it on the radio live tonight. Can someone remind me what radio station its on?

Guest GiveusaB Posted October 20, 2016 Great to hear such sportsmanship amongst Brummies/Eastbourne fans.......much more mature than the squabbling Elite league bunch !!! Anyone know who's guesting for Birmingham on Sunday ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brummies_Ste 134 Posted October 20, 2016 Great to hear such sportsmanship amongst Brummies/Eastbourne fans.......much more mature than the squabbling Elite league bunch !!! Anyone know who's guesting for Birmingham on Sunday ? James Shanes Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hunters 210 Posted October 20, 2016 That rather puts the tin hat on it, Shanes was and I think still is the only man to beat Adam Ellis here this yearbarring falls and Engine Failures. He will take points off the top 4. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevec 300 Posted October 20, 2016 Max Clegg beat him last weekend, twice I think! Shane's could be a very good guest and great to watch. He was flying when Kent we in town last. My gut feel is that he wont do as well this time round. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Alex2000 266 Posted October 20, 2016 Shanes can be good at Arlington but at the same time nothing special. If memory recalls he went unbeaten in his first 3 last time but then trailed by about 1/4 of a straight in the last 2 races Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If memory recalls he went unbeaten in his first 3 last time but then trailed by about 1/4 of a straight in the last 2 races That my whole point, unbeaten in three would take a load of points off our top four making an even bigger mountain to climb for the reserves. If James gets 9 in any manner on Sunday the Brummies will be delighted and it would be a big improvement on Davey's 5 on Wednesday. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gazzac 1,015 Posted October 20, 2016 We always knew it would be tight over 2 legs, but although Shanes will probably score twice as many as Davey did, even if the Brummie reserves take the reserve races won't score anywhere near the amount they did at home. Lining up nicely for both competitions, reacon both second legs will be a catch up for the home side, hopefully we can have a bigger lead to take to Birmingham for the league than 6,may guess is 49/41. Must say I find James Shanes the most exciting opposing rider to watch,so bodes well for a cracking meeting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
gazzac 1,015 Posted October 20, 2016 (edited) Can't think Brennen and Harris will only score 1 point between them, so if the top end do the business again think it'll be a similar score. Will be quite tight at Arlington as well,but if we can restrict it to a 4 point loss again at Perry Barr, think we'll have taken a bigger lead than that to the second leg . Should be 4 cracking meetings in the 2 competitions as it's too close to call home and away. Did I really say that !
