szkocjasid 3,042 Posted August 21, 2023 Drop Morris & Nielsen & Birmingham could run with this squad lol! Robert Lambert 11.72 Troy Batchelor 7.45 Justin Sedgmen 6.94 Alfie Bowtell 4.93 Paul Starke 4.55 Sam Hagon 2.00 Luke Killeen 2.00 Maybe Niels K Iversen, or Jaimon Lidsey would be more realistic though?

Should make Friday's away match at Edinburgh's trick track interesting then Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No doubt the Pirates will ragdoll the home team in the opener, & will probably also supply Lawson as the Brum guest for the second match. Considering the Monarchs have persisted with the lowest 2 pointer in the CL since 9th June & show no signs of altering this, despite their reserves recording one point between them in last Friday's gubbing, Birmingham should be able to also win here. There's quiet a few home fans disenchanted with how our Promotion appear to have given up in trying to improve both the team & the track latterly. With the matchday admission prices for Friday being £35 for Adults, £33 for Seniors, & £31.50 for Students, think quite a few of the non-diehards will give this meeting a body swerve Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Argos 262 Posted August 22, 2023 Looking back at previous Press Releases from Birmingham the management were having a meeting with the Stadium owners to sort out the future of Speedway, Did this meeting take place? If it did what was the outcome? The silence as been deafening since the announcement the owners were kicking out the Speedway Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
