The White Knight 9,039 Posted July 13, 2014 If it is to be bad news, then you wouldn't expect any announcement from the British authorities before the British GP any way!! Thanks for that Wade Barrett. Seriously though - I am still keeping my fingers crossed for the 'Brummies'. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Starman2006 2,356 Posted July 13, 2014 Thanks for that Wade Barrett. Seriously though - I am still keeping my fingers crossed for the 'Brummies'. I think most speedway fans are mate, but the vibes coming out of Birmingham don't sound good. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kitten2502 263 Posted July 13, 2014 Rumours/hearsay/opinions abound yesterday in Cardiff - but I'd say 50-50 at best. One EL promoter we spoke to reckons we'll be OK though (let's hope he has "inside knowledge" and is proven correct!). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
high edge 103 Posted July 13, 2014 Alan Phillips did his best for Birmingham speedway but was dropped in it when Mr Dury suddenly left the club anyone know why.Phillips spent money to bring in Bartoz Smarzlik but it did not work out with him with meetings being rained off and Roscoed off,but Alan tried his best to strengthen the team that the departed Dury put together.Graham said on radio that Birmingham got fined a few times for fielding a incorrect team that happened once after that the teams guest were selected by the team manager and they did not get anymore fines so dont know why he said that.Why dont the b s p a take over Eastbourne they are according to Bob Dugaurd loosing 200,000 a year so they are in a worst state than Birmingham.i dont think the Brummies will be the only team to be in trouble this year wait and see.

Storming Norman 23 Posted July 14, 2014 I don't think anybody would complain if the monies went to the ben fund providing it was verified. Good, thanks for clarifying. I disagree - saving Birmingham isn't connected with the Ben Fund. Keep the focus on saving Birmingham. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
