CUFC_Brummie 132 Posted December 3, 2018 Delighted to be back, definitely feels like the right move for the club, hopefully I can pick a meeting up when I come back to visit next year. I would steer clear of Hume, no talent issues but just can't trust him to stay healthy. Ellis, Bacon, Wajtknecht, Shanes and Flint I think leaves 6.65 for the last rider, I'd like to see that, plenty of scope for improvement in those 5. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But Brummie Bacon ended up with a worse injury than Hume that is speedway you need some luck.Hume has ability yes you are right if he has another season of injury woes then yes you would be concerned..

That’s a poor looking Team IMO,think they will have stronger line up than that. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Brummie Kev 519 Posted December 3, 2018 So pleased we have made the move up, its 100 per cent the right time. We have had four good seasons in the National League but the third tier is not where this club should be especially after the outcome of the NL AGM, 36 points limit is a disaster for a club like Birmingham. The management have been absolutely fantastic in their first season its a learning curve for the Masons but Ive been impressed, they can really build this club back up again for sure. I'm looking forward to going to tracks Ive never been to before and to get away from Cradley . Good to see Ulrich back at Birmingham, its been 10 years but he did well for us in his spell then. Adam Ellis is a rider I wouldnt mind seeing back, he was brilliant when he rode for us against Peterborough, Ben Barker is another one who is very popular with Brummies fans. Tom Bacon and/or James Shanes are the riders I would consider from this years side. Would say Leon but think he will be at Berwick. Hopefully we can have a solid side from 1 to 7.

If you want to be the best you have to be able to handle pressure, he’d be under probably more pressure at Brum because of what he achieved there last year. i think Luke is capable of stepping up too, Wouldn’t it be great to see two local youngsters develop into top riders in the next few years. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

markyb 323 Posted December 3, 2018 (edited) So chuffed for Birmingham to be back on board - good luck guys - so much better than the pseudo ‘coventry’ outfit at the hell hole of Leicester Edited December 3, 2018 by markyb Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
