British speedway summed up in one post. Sadly.

Doesn't look like Brum will be repeating the league and cup double of 50 years ago now. Shame really

Birmingham only has one more season at PB after this one, don't they?

The point, the reason why they struggle for crowds as the traditional speedway supporting demograph doesn't live as close to the club as it used to. If they can attract a more ethnic based crowd, then fine.

I think you need to look at the demographic of the city and look at the growth of places such as Tamworth and Lichfield to understand why the club struggles to get decent crowds. Then add on the fact that very few people actually like the sport anymore, which is probably the main issue.

Looks like the quality of the opposition might attract floating fans rather than that of the Brummies 7, if some of the predictions are to be believed.

Steve Worrall it is then.

No mention of tent Poles then?

Will Prem speedway be enough bring the lost fans back to PB? Will Wolves fans come over in droves? It'll be interesting to say the least.

A lot of incidents in ice hockey are intended to hurt the opposition, it's part of the game, but what happened to Adam Johnson was something else. Why on earth would a hockey player lift his leg that high? Absolutely crazy, I'm not surprised he's been charged. He actually did something to the lad around 10 years previously, his leg was lower but the way he went in was totally over the top.

Stop beating about the bush and tell us what you really think!

Well that's one way to bump up a thread. Cheers!

It'd take them too long to put all the fires out!

Perhaps some animal rights protesters could get wind of the plan and slow things down a bit......

Accident repair. I drove into the back of a bus when I was reading the advert.
