They will unless more changes are made at KL imo. Both teams are as bad as each other now but the difference is Birmingham have a young team with riders who can improve as the season goes on where's King's Lynn don't. 1-5's are on par with each other but Brum are stronger at reserve.

GiveusaB 1,156 Posted April 25 I don't know much of Wojdylo....but I do like Cook....him and Brennan are the '2' positive signings this season.... I'm sure Pawliki will be a force if they give him a decent surface to race on....(a bit of grip !) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He’s doing ok in Poland,but it’s totally different game over here.Tracks are prepared to a standard in Poland and are pretty consistent ,over here they have no idea what the track will be like from one week to another.Various excuses accepted.

He must hit the ground running and be able to ride tracks he's never seen before from day 1!! Tut tut. It's not his fault that Birmingham have been build so poorly, he's a solid rider but to be thrown in the deep end at number 1, partnered with Tom or Steve (two experienced campaigners) and against the likes of Jack Holder, Tai Woffinden, Maciej Janowski, Emil Sayfutdinov, Jason Doyle, Chris Harris. He's never going to score to his assessed 7.50 average now is he? He should be at number 3 or 4 (against the Josh Pickering, Nicolai Klindt, Charles Wright, Danny Kings of the league) with a solid team around him. Yes sadly Birmingham had riders assessed UP when most teams want riders on low false averages. Unfortunately for the Brummies he has come into our league which is at its strongest in 12 years or more so it was always going to be tough for him. That said he is a very capable rider.

szkocjasid 3,090 Posted April 28 Seen a few "sign Zagar" suggestions. I'm not sure he'd be a great signing on a 7.20 average, as at Belle Vue he averaged 9.37 at home and 5.68 away. But even if he drops his average by virtue of not having the NSS as his home track, should still be better than Lampart. So this is actually a scenario where a team could happily sign a rider they expect to drop his average? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
szkocjasid 3,090 Posted Tuesday at 02:19 PM Lampart's new average is just above Milik's new average, so Milik at reserve till June. Should score well from there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GiveusaB 1,156 Posted Friday at 06:52 AM Why on earth didnt B'ham sign Craig Cook ??? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
GiveusaB 1,156 Posted Friday at 06:53 AM Probably best to start looking for a replacement for Millik...he's a waste of time/money.... Rory Schlein would do better! 1 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
