Ommer Mon 381 Posted November 23, 2017 I'd agree that Hall seems to be one to avoid based on our experience. Potential for scoring massive points at this level but for how long? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
uk_martin 1,606 Posted November 25, 2017 Interesting article in the Birmingham Mail (printed edition only) that the Brummies are only likely to announce one more signing before the NL AGM and that the date of the NL AGM has yet to be set... ...like how long does it take to set a date for an AGM? They've had a year to think about it since the last one. Organised or what? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

StephenMiller 75 Posted November 25, 2017 If the new promotion lets JPB slip through their fingers for 2018 I think this will be a massive mistake. The lad is one of the brightest prospects we've seen in British Speedway for a long time, and judging by his immediate "come & sign me for 2018" comment on the mic at the Tony Mole farewell obviously wants to return ! Surely he should have been the first rider signed up for next season ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
