Jaizer 2,862 Posted July 7, 2022 See Birmingham TM blaming riders for asking for what I assume was gripper starts. I'd turn that on its head and tell riders won last 2 home meetings it's no changing!! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But really you have to prepare it to how the riders want it. Will be interesting to see if Birmingham change it back though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

HGould 2,213 Posted July 7, 2022 Sat up in Bar for first few heats and then ventured down. Id' say if as Nigel has indicated one of recent ones was 350 that last night was around 400-450 mark. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sidney the robin 4,735 Posted July 7, 2022 (edited) What really struck home to me last night was Danyon Hume alot of Brum supporters on this forum loved him,all of them I respect.He had a few injuries along the way but with Bacon/ Flint was very good for the Brum before Covid great lad exciting to watch .He got frozen out really because of his average he has really come on improved just thinking Brum would be a track he goes back to in the future ?( if open) we will see.

Danyon has surprised me this season,thought initially it was a strange signing,but he is having a good season and is a shrewd signing.

The Dog 413 Posted July 7, 2022 He's a smashing lad with a really likeable temperament and a willingness to listen and learn, but sadly never seems to figure in anybodies plans at the start of a season. I think he can go a long way in the sport. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Danyon superb, moved Cook out the way in ht1 for being too slow! Brum not helped by Ashley Morris struggling to stay upright and Vissing r/r yielding just 5 points. Wish them well, a very pleasant arena to watch speedway. £140 in fuel though ! Absolute piss ripping. Well done for making the journey down, at least you should have had an enjoyable journey back home as its always sweeter when your team wins. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
