Yes there was a handful of Brummies fans at the meeting. I was texting myself. It was a close meeting once we started, got it done in just over 90 mins. Birmingham were right on form In the first half before Ipswich took the lead and won by 8 points in the end. It was a freezing evening, was in 4 layers, bobble hat and blanket on the backstraight. Enjoyed my first visit here, worth it. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mick Bratley 474 Posted March 28 It was a decent meeting, in front of a very big crowd and once the ambulance returned we got through the heats at a good pace. Boy was it cold and windy. A spirited effort from the Brummies but the end result was never really in any doubt. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
kevin bass 249 Posted March 29 Decent display from Birmingham considering they were writing off as the leagues whipping boys before a wheel was turned, closer meeting then expected helped by the fact that Emil binned it twice which was very unlike him, hats off to Scotty tho, show's he can still mix it at 45. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,706 Posted March 29 Good signs for the Witches coming through a potential babana skin like this Important contributions all round when the chips were down Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,784 Posted March 29 Brummies look like they are going to be a match for anyone this year, next Thursday at Lynn will be hard work for the Stars with the respective track time each side has had. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Had to feel for Leon Flint, disastrous night for him. Well just proves that Emil is not a machine and is human after all, fingers crossed he's OK after 2 very nasty offs. Man of the meeting was obviously Adam, but a special mention for Dan who rode brilliantly, that boy can gate. Well done Brummies for the close meeting. And welcome back Daddy Doyle. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
marko 956 Posted March 29 Glad to see Brummies will not be cannon fodder, in a league of just seven you need every team to be competitive, if one or two are not, it makes the play offs for forgone conclusion to the rest, in which case you might as well skip straight to them. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
noaksey 345 Posted March 29 Track was decent despite the weather Birmingham were good especially in the early heats when Witches weren't gating Milik and Lampart were better than I thought they might be. Flint had a bad night but he's much better than that Ellis very good for the witches when he gated and Thompson was excellent and on the pace throughout 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gavan 5,050 Posted March 29 Thought we may have won this by more but fair play to the Brummies This season we have two second strings that can score 11-15 between them and 2 reserves who can get 8-10 between them Even the lower end of that means the 3 heat leaders need to get 27 between them which will happen most weeks … even with Emil and Danny struggling last night the heat leaders got 23…. I think we will be very tough to beat this season but we will see Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

GeneralMelchett 482 Posted March 29 (edited) Really good to see some of the lesser lights seeing the the Witches to Victory - Keynan Rew already seems a much more confident rider to last season and I am sure he and DanT combining in heat 14 to mke the win secure will have boosted their confidence no end! Jason seems to have picked up last season at Foxhall! I knew Brennan would be solid for the Brummies - they just need a win as right now they are certainly competive and in meetings until the end! Credit to everyone getting the meeting competed before the curfew as well - there was some grumbling on the live updates forum about Ambulances etc but I am pretty certain if it was your releative that need to go to hospital you'd be more than happy to wait! and edit - Adam Ellis two great meetings at home so far!

The result at Ipswich was distorted due to very unusual low scores by Emil and Danny King. They will be a better team this year with Ellis and are title favourites in my view .
