Argos 262 Posted December 9, 2023 Who is actually selecting the Team for the coming Season? If it’s Nigel and Rogers there track record isn’t great, I really hope they get it right this time I would think one more season like the last two would be the end, With the contracts Sam has maybe hand over team selection to him.

"Raved about on Sky" - Nigel Pearson would've raved about speedway in someone's back garden, it was his job. "Hosted British Finals" - so did Kirkmanshulme Lane, it was still a crap track. God knows how crowd size comes into the track argument, I suppose you had nothing else. Wolves was one of the best prepared and skilled racing tracks. More fans enjoyed the racing at Monmore than Brum. On 12/2/2023 at 8:52 PM, phillipsr said: Ones still open and one isnt…. dont be bitter about it and Birmingham is 10x the track Wolves was Bitter? Not at all but Brum SHOULD be one the better tracks with its shape but rides pretty awfully. Track prep has been an issue for years although I hear it’s got better. It will be bitterly exposed on TV if not in 2024. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

OGT 612 Posted December 9, 2023 Looks like the quality of the opposition might attract floating fans rather than that of the Brummies 7, if some of the predictions are to be believed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The Dog 413 Posted December 9, 2023 Apart from commentary, has Sam been involved in speedway to the extent that he would be a good choice for a manager? If his last job was nearly 20yrs years ago at Reading, it seems a really odd choice to me Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
