Well...I'm guessing its because apart from him, nobody on the consortium have ever had any involvement in speedway management/promotion? So he should've known better !

They would still be aware that it was a temporary appointment.

Of course, but they would be following Rogers lead....unfortunately!

So why weren't the supporters told before the season began that AE was signed on as a short term contract?

Well, I did hear a rumour along those lines at Easter time, but I thought it was just that. And yet here we are. How many will be back after this?

So what would all the doom and gloom 'fans' actually do in these circumstances? No Auty and no Ellis so what are the realistic options for the Brummie promotion?

Honesty wouldnt go amiss.

The consortium aren't the problemI'm sure they've got the full backing of those who attend.They're being guided by a fella who isn't up to it

Use the season ticket money to top up what Ellis would have been taking as British Champion and sign a good foreigner.

There are folk like Sam Jensen or Danny Gappmeier to name but two that I'm sure could do a job as a 2nd string.

Or go to Wolves and ask for their American Luke Becker to double up even?

There are always options especially when you owe it to misled fans.

Honesty costs zero, the brum fans would have been annoyed at having a lesser team but would have been more accepting of the reasoning. The way it's been handled would boil my piss if I were a brum fan

Could as wolves for Luke Becker? 
go to belle Vue and ask for a rider to double up.

Or see if the the management could pull something out the bag and bring supports back.

Yeah that would also rule out my suggestion of Sam Jensen too.

Could ask spud summers how he's enjoying retirement. Think he stayed in country
