    It was reported the rent has been increased by 100% !

    So if we manage to get through the 2022 season & break even, what happens if the rent is increased for the 2023 season.

    It's clear the stadium owners just don't want the speedway at Perry Barr by trying to squeeze the club out one way or another.

    BIRMINGHAM’S task of overhauling Edinburgh tonight has just been made even harder.

    Fans’ favourite Paco Castagna has been ruled out with illness and will be replaced by American ace Dillon Ruml.

    Already 18-points down from the first leg heading into the deciding leg of the Knockout Cup tie with Edinburgh, boss Laurence Rogers admits Castagna’s absence is a big blow.

    He said: "Paco rang me to say he had bad flu symptoms and was confined to bed.

    "It's a massive shame he'll miss this one because he has been piling up the points for us at reserve, especially at Perry Barr.

    "We thank Dillon Ruml for stepping in - he rode really, really well for Plymouth not so long back and we're confident he can come in and do a job for the Brummies tonight."

    Edinburgh have also been forced into a change of guest at reserve with Dan Gilkes now standing in for Jason Edwards.

    If Birmingham fail to win by more than 18-points tonight will be the last meeting of the season – and possibly forever unless new owners are found to take over the club from outgoing duo Peter and David Mason.

    Maybe but it did not rain so could have gone ahead.  But like you say was to save and not loose money again?

    Well i don't know where you live but i am 3 miles from Perry Barr & there was 2 very heavy thunder storms in the afternoon, so saying there was no rain in Brum is not correct.

    Are they actually doing any promoting or just threatening fans with closure? Seems to be the same story every week. At least Newcastle can be seen to really be pushing the promoting side!

    You hit the nail on the head.

    The Masons just turn up on a Wednesday from there base in Sussex & expect to see the stadium full without any promoting of the meeting apart to the diehards who will still turn up anyway.
