  1. Well I'm sick of the home straight, would love to stand on the exit of turn 2, my favored position.... go home pointless? you said that last time we were here.... what was your prediction last time Coventry were here
  2. Hope the weather stays fine, booked a B&B for a couple of days, shan't be happy if it pees down................ Been 30 years or so since i was last in Poole. Are air horns allowed?... bringing an industrial strength one with me Where's the best viewing Brummies are on the up, all down to track conditions.. if it suits us we should win by at least 10 Covatti in ht 15
  3. Considering that last year Brum sent out a select side at least twice, and on these occasions the opposition refused to change the fixtures! and a few years back in the Prem Lge KL v Brum..... KL suffering injuries..rather than face Brum conveniently had a flood light failure ... Pot, Kettle, Black etc..... how sporting of them!!!! Skornichi deserves injury as retribution for Brum not rearranging the fixture? is that what you are suggesting? Why does this forum attract so many speedway haters... nothing good to say about it. always negative, grinding the sport down Why dont they Sod off... and leave us speedway lovers to our sport.... This forum is not titled "The Anti Speedway Forum" As for the match.... Brum on a 5-1 and.....very unsporting of Roo boy to lay it down in ht 5 and get up as soon as the red light came on...Jack Lee said sarcastically, Schlein decided to sit on his Bum! Nico lost his steel shoe again..... and he need to sort his gating out... It was obvious to me that Barkers bikes are down on speed. We need a big hitter ... strength in depth aint no good in this format. although I would like Doyle... pitty the management upset him last year. I reckon we should dump Nermark..... as I noted last time he rode for us, he has a habit of going backwards when faced with the big boys... Why does every one keep on this being a Budget team ... every Brum team since the reopening has been a budget team.... whats new "You meet the nicest people at Birmingham Speedway"
  4. KIng could not sign or negotiate with Newcastle without the knowledge, approval and input of the Birmingham Management. you can only have 2 D/uppers ( as far as I am aware) King could not join Newcastle unless either Barker or Kennett left, so they got rid of Kennett and saved on loan Fees, Brum will now of course get loan fees for King.... makes good business sense.... Covatti came in to fill the Kennett Gap ..our asset no loan fees required. King could not Join the Diamonds without lowering his average (as far as I understand, any rule book experts confirm) has no one noticed Kings poor performances ?...(allegedly ) lowering his average..... once signed he puts in a 15pt Max against Wolves how unusual is that??? ..he also won the |British semi at Sheffield during his poor run of form ...banged in 14 points and won, but that meet does not count to the averages!!!!!!!!! So far no mention of Danny and Newcastle on the Brum web site, I wonder why that is? I wonder where Drury fits into all this? If King had not joined a Prem side Kennett would have been given longer to sort himself out, doubtless he did not leave Brum empty handed. I am no cynic or conspiracy theorist but I think its plain to see whats been going on and I feel cheated.
  5. It was on the BSPA website last Friday, but the Brummie site has been extremely coy and made no mention of it.................... Hmmmmmm King is doubling up/down/sideways, which ever.. with Newcastle ...............now how did he achieve that?.... shouldn't be hard to work out.. scored a 15 point Max against Wolves after he had signed?.. Now you know the real reason why Kennett was given the elbow... so King could join the Diamonds. "Football a 50p sport"
  6. God.... aint this old chestnut been roasted to death.... constant whinging on about admission prices as though it was the Holy Grail and this simplistic idea will right all speedways wrongs Meanwhile something interesting like the Danny King Affair has slipped completely off the radar ............and of course the actual match "Football a £1 pound sport"

    Actually I am an unashamed Covatti fan......... I hadn't given any though to what he was riding or the fact he hadn't ridden for a month...... makes his performance even more impressive....ahem.................

    The poster!!!!!..... Blimey Brian I though you would have guessed who I am. Any road up.... GA pointed out the prob in an earlier post, suitably chastened I rescind the bum kicking for DK and reserve it for Nico for being unprofessional in his equipment preparation, this is not the first time it has happened. Not stopped BB scoring in the Prem? I find it hard to believe DK was supposedly using a 2013 engine last night, riding better in a 2014 meeting than he did with the same engine in 2013. How come he can bang in a big score at Sheffield and a couple of days later at Poole score 3, More to this than meets the eye IMO.

    Dont think so... he put in some laps after the meet and practice starts, so I assume he was trying different set ups "You meet the nicest people at Birmingham speedway"

    What a difference a week makes.. Completely different atmosphere on the terraces lots of enthusiasm, same on track you could see and feel the difference. even our presenter was showing more enthusiasm!!!! Slickly run meeting top marks to the promotion. A good nights entertainment. King back on form but needs his bum kicking for ht 8, riding shot gun for Nico, keeping Wells back he then clears of into the distance leaving NIco vulnerable so letting Wells pass him... what happened to team riding? a win for Nico would have been a big confidence boost. Nice to to see Nico back, rather watch him any day giving 100% than Gordon Bennett. Barker was putting in some laps after the meeting. "You meet the nicest people at Birmingham speedway"

    According to the Brummies website Phillips has spent all Easter looking for riders to strengthen the team .........Ill believe it when I see it...

    I bet Sponsers "Selco" arn't very happy with "THEIR" teams performance. I think people are being a bit hard on BB, hes a racer and is trying, unfortunately he needs someone to sort his head out ......but Phil Morris has gone BB was on the center green watching the starts...... not the actions of someone who wasn't trying. Eastbourne dumped Kennet, Cov dumped him, Swindon dumped him................. can we do the same?.....................Please.......................NOW same for DN his ht 14 ride was stunning ....was it not Never mind... the new Phillips "initative" is bound to help .."The Fans Liaison officers" (aka union reps) you can take all your complaints to them, that will save Philips having to listen to the moans............ if they can find volunteers Signed .....Pi**ed off of Tunbridge Wells "You meet the nicest people at Birmingham Speedway"

    Talked to several people tonight who are more in the know than me and they all said the same..... there is absolutely no team spirit, half the riders dont even talk to each other. We have a team manager who cannot generate that spirit or motivate the riders. Its not just Kennett who should be on his way but the team manager as well.............

    Well I've tried to remain positive but as soon as I heard we had signed Kennett I new what sort of season we would have, the most unexciting Brummies team in years ...and our biggest defeat since reopening .......The only bright spot has been Skornicki's home form. KL on good Fri....gawd help us...
