Argos 262 Posted July 19, 2018 Very interesting Statement on the Official Birmingham Website re the Buxton v Birmingham’s Fixture, Confirming that Lawrence Rogers was telling lies when he stated he had written Confirmation off the BSPA that Mr Flint Snr could ride in the meeting, hope he does the decent thing and resigns, 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mr Ore 203 Posted July 19, 2018 A pathetically bland statement immediately overtaken by a reporr of last night's meetng at the top of their news thread..Hmm. Although I worked a year in Birmingham and attended every home match, and several away during that time, I am certainly not a fan but I trust that apologies are forthcoming from certain alleged Brummie fans for the abuse hurled at Jayne Moss in support of him, and the results of his actions. .Maybe I am just farting against thunder with that desire though.

GWC 495 Posted July 19, 2018 The obvious thing would be to dock Birmingham points. Disgraceful especially at a club where there was never going to be any chance of Buxton winning that meeting. If they had gone through the correct channels they might have been able to use Gary when it mattered against Mildenhall! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Guest GiveusaB Posted July 19, 2018 Get rid of Rodgers now! He''s a crook ! Over to you Brian Buck, after all you are our spokesperson ? Total disgrace! our great club is in danger of losing its integrity! I'm considering withholding my support whilst Rogers is involved! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If they had gone through the correct channels they might have been able to use Gary when it mattered against Mildenhall! think that would be very harsh on birmingham, the masons, riders and fans. a personal fine for rogers would be better but like you say why try and cheat against buxton for goodness sake.

Racin Jason 72 1,239 Posted July 20, 2018 Rogers is a well meaning buffoon. Got his sums wrong at Kings Lynn. Put together the worst team ever at mildenhall. Didn’t last long at Plymouth. Most succesfull job was at Coventry holding a stop watch and getting his face on the sky cameras as often as possible. But to be fair he does awful lot of work getting youngsters rides and must be applauded for that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Argos 262 Posted July 20, 2018 This is the same Mr Rogers that made an Official Statement that even if England qualify for the semi final of the World Cup Birmingham WOULD race on the same night, However 48 hours later made another Statement saying if they made the semi they WOULDN'T race, Its such a shame a club having its reputation tarnished by one person Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

semion 2,192 Posted July 25, 2018 (edited) Mainman Lol getting found out again. Just amazing how many club owners still entertain him. Not only got his sums wrong at Kings Lynn but actually had riders pulling engine failures, etc to try to reduce averages in front of a paying public. What a p155 taker the guy is. Like Racin Jason says he did all that only to realise afterwards he had actually got the math wrong. Then tried to move the blame elsewhere.

Lord Skid 425 Posted July 25, 2018 Sounds like he's fully qualified for a BSPA position, why would you need him to get a youngster rides at a track, if you think you're good enough to impress a Promoter, go and ask him for a trial. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
teaboy279 1,038 Posted July 26, 2018 It would now appear pretty clear that he lied to another club and then in a public statement via the club's official media outlets. With that said how is his position even still tenable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
