Makes me reminisce on the Brummie "pea soupers" we used to get when I was a kid. Fog was dense for days sometimes wouldn't clear at all. Rain may be a relief to Track Staff might help in preparation. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Brummies_Ste 134 Posted September 15, 2021 BIRMINGHAM: Chris Harris, Valentin Grobauer, James Shanes R/R, Ashley Morris, Erik Riss, Paco Castagna, Jack Thomas. EDINBURGH: Sam Masters, Anders Rowe R/R, Kye Thomson, Josh Pickering, Richie Worrall, Drew Kemp, TBC. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheScotsman 2,483 Posted September 15, 2021 Looks like Tom Woolley for Monarchs in for Nathan Greaves. No disrespect but that's not a great replacement when already using R/R for Anders Rowe. So he will have to take 4 rides and Drew Kemp 7, unless we have to use a TS which could cut him down to 3 rides. And Birmingham with R/R for James Shanes certainly strengthens then. Looking like a big hill to climb - hope the track is in good nick. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Got to say with Tom Woolley in for Nathan, Anders Rowe R/R, and the first time on the track for Kye, this will be an uphill battle for the Monarchs and they could struggle to reach the 38 points they require.
