No you are incorrect. Birmingham did not lose 56-34 last week or against Edinburgh. I note it has been corrected in the media release.

No, it won’t with this particular team but as they say, if you pay peanuts you get monkeys if you pay nothing, you get Laurence rogers Replacing rogers would give more leadership snd reduce the points thrown away by inept team management thus lessening our current thrashing’s to hopefully something approaching respectability last weeks debacle in heat five last Wednesday snd his ridiculous attempts to justify his actions, were the last straw for me. He’s absolutely clueless Edited June 11, 2023 by the hobbit 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike0310 662 Posted June 11, 2023 I take my hat off to mr Tolley at least he realises a shake up needs to be made not like my team birminghams results are no worse than ours but I bet they make more changes before we do, lack of riders is always the reason cited, other teams manage to put teams good teams together for me Kyle howarth got it spot on the fixture list is a joke not enough meetings between now and the middle of August my team Plymouth have 4 meetings at home left season over absolute joke. 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Spot on, not only does he understand the club's and fans situation but tells it as it is in public. He and his co-directors need all the support they can muster. As for Kyle's viewpoint I guess any club with a strong top 3 that gets knocked out of the 2 early season competitions will only have League meetings and possible play-offs left. Its not as if he didn't know of the possible number of fixtures when he signed up - its almost identical to last season.

We are very grateful to Nigel Tolley and before him the Masons for keeping Brummies alive against mounting odds and big losses. Your one man moaning vendetta though against Mark Phillips is OTT I've not seen Nigel driving a tractor or preparing the track. Nor Dave and Peter Mason Not seen them rebuilding completely new Stands, put in new lighting, drag a struggling NDL team up to the CL and recruit the likes of Crump, Anderson, Palm Toft and others to try to make it work Perry Barr is in the middle of everywhere, Plymouth is on a never ending road to almost no where. Mark Phillips deserves great credit, not your constant moaning. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No one deserves the owners we have to deal with. Fair play to Nigel Brummies fans know a trier when they see one and like the Masons he'll get thanks and respect for his efforts Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

They all need a little help from their friends - occasionally! Edited June 11, 2023 by Skidder1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think Keleher would have done a job for us too last year and this. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Completely agree re the fixture list, it's a farce. Simply not enough meetings, I don't see how any team can make any real money from such few home fixtures and they wonder why clubs are going to the wall. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
