Jaizer 2,862 Posted September 24, 2021 Hasn't grobauer scored a whole lot of 0s anyway recently? So what's the difference? 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Riders like Grobauer shouldn’t be given the time of day in British Speedway unless he is available for all the fixtures,this is a joke,who is going to pay good money to see a guest filled team with 2nd strings. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes he has, although against Newcastle (Wednesday) all seven clicked for once. Would have been good to see a fired up seven Brummie regulars. Drew is a good choice but doesn’t carry Paco’s passion.

Tosh1218 591 Posted September 24, 2021 Birmingham put this side together and I’m sure Grobauer will have had to tell there promotion his foreign commitment s before signing . Yet again foreign riders abusing our league Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Probably answers my question as to why grobauer and not Riss replaced smolinski at SON. I assume because he hasn't/ doesn't take part in his national championships?
