A ORLOV 8,628 Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) With some very tough matches away aswell at home, they could well be pointless until end of May! With three of the toughest teams away, BV, Wolves and Rye House it may be a good opportunity to make team changes if necessary !!!

uk_martin 1,606 Posted January 25, 2017 a couple of points , it's winter what sort of weather were they expecting ? Colin Meredith, in the employ of Tony Mole, built the Perry Barr track in Birmingham between January and March 2007. It CAN be done if effort was to replace excuses.

KevH 257 Posted January 25, 2017 Colin Meredith, in the employ of Tony Mole, built the Perry Barr track in Birmingham between January and March 2007. It CAN be done if effort was to replace excuses. He may well have built the track in that time, but he had a stadium to build it in. I would suggest that building both a track and a stadium is a little more optimistic :/ Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
A ORLOV 8,628 Posted January 25, 2017 (edited) One slightly better decision this year is the start of the season being in April rather than March, so hopefully slightly warmer weather for the first meeting on April 6th. Just surprised there is no friendly practice meeting prior to the start of the main meetings. Edited January 25, 2017 by A ORLOV Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Grachan 7,362 Posted January 28, 2017 A new Robins Commercial team in place from today I see!! :-) Some very positive additions. Lee Kilby, in particular, is a great addition. The third generation of Kilby involvement and someone who has shown a degree of promotional flair in the past and has a genuine passion for the club. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted January 28, 2017 Serious questions need to be asked about the new stadium. If everything is above board then the construction company will be able to say exactly when this kit form stadium is going to start to arrive. As it currently stands about one days work has taken place. These workman are there for no other purpose but to look like something is happening, when in reality they have move a few stones about with some metal railings. This kids no one. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
