GiveusaB 1,128 Posted March 30, 2022 Meeting cancelled due to weather forecast??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wee Eck 702 Posted March 30, 2022 I’ve just had a look at the forecast. Not surprised! Wet and 3C. And a meaningless fixture. Not good for an opening night so sensible to call off early as they’ve done Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not good for an opening night so sensible to call off early as they’ve done Meaningless to you perhaps. Had the weather not deteriorated I'm pretty certain that there would have been a strong turnout of Bees fans which would have helped make the evening a success for the new Brum promotion in terms of crowd levels which I would imagine is very important to them, so not completely meaningless really. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Apologies - I didn’t mean to offend. Meaningless in terms of the league or the cup.and meaningless in terms of the made up opposition. But only my opinion - I prefer a season opener, if it’s to be a glorified practice session, to be en open meeting, an interleague challenge or an inter club trophy. Something that matters, even if it’s just pride. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Something that matters, even if it’s just pride. That's OK I'm not offended , just thought i would highlight the important issue in my mind. Bees fans in large numbers are patiently waiting & hoping for a chance to see their club back in action. Brum have stated they need people to attend in larger numbers, tonight had it gone ahead tonight would have very likely kept all parties happy. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Are the Coventry riders Chris Harris & Adam Roynon any relation to the riders of the same names who rode for Birmingham two days ago at Wolverhampton? Or even the Chris Harris (Berwick) & Adam Roynon (Redcar)....... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
