GiveusaB 1,145 Posted January 26 Well, if Pawliki and Milik are as entertaining as a fair few BSF posters have been saying, then it should bring a few neutrals through the gate and that's wot the Club needs, because the regular are decreasing due to age etc.... I can't see this team winning, but if I'm entertained, I'll be happy and a win will be a bonus! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He is hardly likely to say anything else, can’t say we have put together a poor team. little bit like Ipswich in the early 90s signed plenty of poles/czechs & even a Austrian all had potential sadly none achieved it. As for your team I would happily have had Brennan at Foxhall, Worrell is ok the Poles I think will surprise a few. I’ll be honest Milik does worry me. I think your probably destined for the wooden spoon but I don’t think you’ll be whipping boys. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tolley also thinks Ermolenko will make a good TM It doesn’t exactly inspire anyone with confidence does it. They will struggle, it’s an awful team led by a clueless manager. Zach Cook is the exception I actually rate him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Think its pretty obvious that signing Sam was/is a publicity stunt, simply because of his Wolves attachment!? It doesn't appear that he's had any input/say in the make-up of the team? Sam will be used more for PR than tactical nouse, one would think/expect? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I haven't seen much of Leon since he left Brum, but the times I have seen him, I think there's something missing in his 'style/versatility'? Can't put my finger on it....but he hasn't got what Tom Brennan has got....or Hagon/Boughen (IMO) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tinker 203 Posted January 30 The best thing Sam Ermolenko can do is to get all the riders together before the season starts, put up a big screen and then go through all the posts re the Brummies on this Forum. If that doesn't give each one of them motivation to do well then I can't think of anything else that will. If Sam can instill a real sense of team spirit amongst them and a willingness to prove the doubters wrong then they may surprise a few people. I wish them well.
