I would love to be racing top flight again next season I just hope we can pull together a competitive team . Could Rosco be tempted to manage the team ? Will we be signing any former Wolves riders ? Will Stevebrum become a regular down PB ? Lots to discuss ..... This is the worry. Not just for Brum but Lynn as well. I hope everyone is competitive, same in tye Championship. The gap between those with resources and good sponsorship & crowds needs to narrow and not widen. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A higher points limit suggests the strong clubs get stronger, most of the Wolves riders you'd want to sign appear to be going to Leicester Becker would be worth an enquiry and you could get Steve Worrall. Brum are going to need to get some heat leaders from somewhere especially a good no 1, I wish them well with that. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Noaksey (or any Wolves supporter ) out of interest if the Brummies signed lets say Becker ,Flint and Masters as an example would you come watch the Brummies regularly or would it make no odds to you attending for your speedway fix ? Maybe even Getting fast Freddie as number 1 ? I am sure some I have named of these have already signed else where I'm just using name's as examples . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think the likes of Becker or Worrall would make a huge difference, I think there might be a handful of Wolves fans that will attend PB regularly. Someone like Lindgren though would be a game changer, that would probably give Birmingham the best chance of attracting Wolves fans (albeit the team overall will have to be decent, otherwise interest will wain quickly) I'd certainly do a few at PB if he signs whereas it would be 1 or 2 otherwise 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Good quality Euro riders like Hefenbrock, Kvech, Lahti, Mickelson spring to mind. Smolinski is fit again. Lower down what about Brennan, Flint... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not so sure about Smolinski we don't want the 2013 team being re-assembled haha, Brennan I think would be OK signing, wouldn't mind Dudek either if he wanted to come to UK Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The lower end of that figure at best I'd say plus they won't stick around if the team is pants irrespective of the likes of Lindgren I don't think having Adams would put a single person on the gate and he's already said he won't be going there Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
