pete cc 322 Posted March 2, 2020 Sometimes it's better to ask the horse and get information from the horses mouth. I think someone has been standing at the wrong end of the horse. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

uk_martin 1,606 Posted March 9, 2020 Does anyone know the situation regarding Paco Castagna, bearing in mind all that's going on in Italy with Coronavirus? is he "locked down"? Are the Brummies going to risk flying him to the UK in and out of a Coronavirus hotspot? Will the Brummies get "a facility" if he can't fulfil his obligations? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HGould 2,213 Posted March 9, 2020 According to some Facebook posts it would seem that Paco is in the UK preparing for the season and has been here for a few days at least. Who knows what is going to happen by the start of the season, whenever that may be regarding rider movements . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I asked the question on Facebook, but no answer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Seems like an opportunity for the club to make a statement on the clubs website....build a bit of publicity and momentum for the start of the season??? Press and practice just 3 weeks away!?

Crabba59 156 Posted March 10, 2020 Just a shame that the Birmingham are not a bit more like eastbourne with the social media side mind you a lot of tracks are not brilliant on that front. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Eastbourne have a regularly updated website, a TV channel, a newly launched podcast, Twitter, Facebook, Instagram to my knowledge. All channels are busy. In-season, they have a newsy programme. I would guess that the Eagles are near the top of the charts these days when it comes to communicating with fans. There's little we don't know, or can't find out if we take the trouble to look. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crabba59 156 Posted March 10, 2020 That's true think eastbourne with the isle of white are way above most teams on that side and that can only be good for the fans? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HGould 2,213 Posted March 10, 2020 Brummies website is one of those awful dated off the shelf AP ones. Desperately needs a refresh as does the social media. A lot/most Clubs far better than us at it. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
