    I'm not sure that klindt is the answer. However if a change is going to happen soon ,milik would be the first because using common sense before he gets a true average. If he's on a 4 average someone will sign him at reserve , then will return to Perry Barr score double figures and we will be back to square one. Did I write common sense?

    They would obviously see that as Oxford's problem. This kind of thing will inevitably keep happening whilst British clubs include foreign riders. Poland pay the money, so we can't blame the riders for opting to ride there.

    Birmingham would have had the same problem if Pawlicki had not been injured and temporarily replaced by Scott Nicholls.

    Birmingham don't have this problem as pawlicki isnt named in their 1 -7. Hmmmm,         I feel a conspiracy theory coming on?

    Just out of interest,  does everyone think that birmingham didn't ask riss , thorssell, Lindgren etc during the winter? Personally I expect they have all been asked and refused for various reasons and the club have landed with the best they could get. Is it not time to start to back the club ( turn up tomorrow would help) and stop trying to knock the club down before a wheel has turned.

    So how many media outlets (not speedway facebook sites) used material from yesterday's media day? I don't read many national newspapers but I can't seem to locate anything.

    If they don't try ,they will never know. First proper media day for many a year. Small steps .

    Genuine question

     

    who is paying the riders travel for this event. for example Zach Cook from Poole to Manchester and back in his hire van eats up his 500 mile a week allowance and no chance to earn any points money. Many more examples available.

    Genuine answer, 

    I don't expect to see 56 vehicles to be carrying 49 riders & 7 team managers. This could be the only case of doubling or trebling up we all agree with. :t:

    The basic kevlars are the same but each one is covered in different sponsors,  so non are alike. This also applies to bike covers, riders need the sponsors and many sponsors dictate their colours. There are a lot worse things going on in the world.

    I think the track will suit him better...less technical !

    I think him and Cook will most likely improve their averages....Cook flies at PB and isnt afraid to use the dirt, of which their looks to be a new shed load going down!?

    Wait until the real first dry month and see who moans about dust.

    Wow, 72 pages of mostly people complaining about the goings on if Birmingham speedway. 

    To those who complain and don't even go to meetings, why are to bothering to complain. To those who do go to meetings give the club a chance,  I'm sure all are trying their hardest to make a successful club. No one signs a rider expecting to fail. Let's Hope for another 72 pages of positive comments when the last 2 riders are signed.  Now cue the anger from those who think I'm a fool.:D

    Laguta earns £2,000 per point for Wroclaw.

    He would be prepared to join Birmingham for 30% of that. How much lower can he go?

    30% plus a van mechanic, flights etc etc.  The list will go on. I'm not saying your wrong but there are other things  to consider.

    Still saying Schlein plus another.

    Brum would've been complete by now if they managed to get 2 quality riders in.

    They've signed 5 riders on a budget and are hoping to get two HL's in however the names being linked with Brum now are of much lesser quality than they were at the start.

    Who is doing all this linking of riders ?

    A lot of know buggeralls giving their ideas as to what they think should be happening. I'm sure if you all write it often enough,  somebody will believe you.

    So,  B'ham promotion are supposedly speaking to  6/8 available (whatever criteria that means?) riders in order to finalise the last 2 (GP standard (not my words) riders)

    Please, please, please don't leave this decision in the hands of previous team selectors!

    Hopefully, the promotion have been taking note of forum posters and should by now, know, what's needed, for a reasonable chance of progress!

    Who do you think you are ?

    I really fear for the brummies unless they can sign Freddie Lindgren and another proven premiership rider. 
    maybe even Antonio lindback with a view to attract some of the ethnic local population. 

    Didn't know there was that many Swedish nationals living in Birmingham?
