I think the clubs will lose out when the fans stop going! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fake an injury and use a facility. that’s why the sport will never have credibility It certainly won’t whilst the BSPL board of Directors keep making decisions which circumvent the rules. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe he would know? I thought Ellis was riding in Denmark this season, that's why I thought he wasn't in the Poole team and i was surprised when he signed for Birmingham.

GiveusaB 1,130 Posted May 13, 2022 BIRMINGHAM have pulled off the signing of reigning British Champion Adam Ellis.The 26-year-old, who won the National League with the club in 2015, has agreed to join the Curtis Sport Brummies and completes their side for the coming season.However, due to a prior league commitment in France this weekend, Birmingham have named Ben Morley as a member of their team for Saturday's (March 26, 7pm) Knockout Cup clash at Leicester.But after weeks of negotiations, team boss Laurence Rogers is thrilled and relieved to finally get his man.Said Rogers: "It really is amazing news for the club.“Adam was always on our list of potentials but we had to wait for a few things to fall into place.“We hit a few pitfalls along the way and we’ve had to be patient with one or two things, but he’s a Brummie again and that’s all that matters.“He’s a top quality rider at this level and to bring the British Champion to Birmingham is big, big news.” Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GiveusaB 1,130 Posted May 13, 2022 (edited) Just a reminder of the announcement by B'ham main website when Adam was signed. It clearly says he's joined for the 'Season'! Management are quick to jump on here when something negative is said.... Just wondering why they're not as quick to 'quash' these rumours , unless they're true? P.s it also states that to bring him to B'ham is big big news....well, to lose him after such a short time under false pretences would be even bigger news !

Skidder1 7,632 Posted May 13, 2022 Just asking - where has this rumour come from? ...and does Jonny the Spud have any comment? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
StephenMiller 75 Posted May 13, 2022 If it's true then Birmingham are basically sunk for this season you would assume. Hopefully we will hear some kind of official comment on this soon Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Sings4Speedway 3,246 Posted May 13, 2022 Poor form really and shows the clumsiness of a new promotion being guided by you know who. Signing clearly made to get to the tapes for the first few meetings, season tickets and any other advance tickets all sold under false pretences. My thoughts go to all fans who are trying to support a club and are being fed the smelly brown stuff repeatedly. As ive said on other threads the paying public aren't completely stupid, an honest and open announcement from clubs at various stages goes a long way. Instead Brum have served up the signing of the British Champion for the upcoming season.....poor form. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
