GiveusaB 1,145 Posted October 26, 2021 (edited) If B'ham were to appear again next season....which I doubt very much at Championship level...I wouldnt want to see Riss or Grobauer, both a waste of space IMO! Everything is specualtion and its a load of b#ll#cks discussing it until someone makes a firm commitment/statement!

The Dog 413 Posted October 26, 2021 Riss averaged just over 8 so wasn't that bad 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Don't think Riss did that from what i saw at Perry Barr, just think he had a poorer season in 2021 than 2019, which happens. He was hardly setting the world alight for Kings Lynn. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He's proven to be a very good rider and a smashing person but last year never really worked for him. Shame because he's a lot better than we saw and he was as frustrated as anyone. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lefty 1,268 Posted October 30, 2021 Local press is covering Brum Councils' closure of the 'Wheels' facility for redevelopment. Another part of speedway track history like Hall Green, 'one stop' & Spoons being concreted over. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HGould 2,213 Posted October 31, 2021 Still hopeful that Laurence can pull something off. There are going to be plenty of riders looking for a ride if Kent close too. Young Gilkes and Starke live in Midlands. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
