Lets see who our last 3 signings are before we start to get the violins out ? LOL

Must be a great inspiration to have Crump in the pits in whatever capacity....great move by Oxford...they seem to be ticking all the boxes so far as set up goes! You have Crump and Nicholls .... we have Rogers and Auty My only disappointment is that race night is a Wednesday ? not the best night IMO.

I suggested him a couple of months ago, but got shot down by one of the 'know everything posters' on here ! Apparently he doesn't want to ride in England....not sure why though? probably coz the standard is poor, for want of a better word?

No chance!

What's the difference between PL and CL these days ?

More of a wish than a statement on my part...I'd settle for Covatti!

Smolinski!

Yehhh, but we need the security Guards there when the stadium isn't in use .....

Security Guards at speedway? just in case of crowd trouble ? They told me to put a mask on last season as I walked past them, I pointed out that there were groups of people without masks on and they said that they were ok as they weren't moving around.? I think they'd been watching too many Marvel films! Bunch of 'to'@@ers'!

Ouch! Hoping LR can come up with a lot better than that!?

Have to agree...it's very 'Mickey Mouse', so far as honours go!

Quite right....very funny when you stop and think about it.....it's like 'you can't leave after the last race until the winning time is announced' and if you miss it, you have to wait for next week's speedway star? LMAO

Can we have Chris in stead of Ray please?

Well said!

When I say 'he knows his stuff'.....I dont mean that he can magic quality riders up...I believe that he knows what a reasonable mid-table side requires.

No, because I don't know what B'ham's budget is ?

I'm not....LR knows his stuff and he also knows that fans wont turn up to watch garbage...

Money talks....and any rider would ride in the Championship for the right wage...'I believe'! Smolinski/Covatti would be my choices. Adam Ellis is riding Denmark, so how would he fit in?

Getting back on thread....what would B'ham fans preference be to how we utilise the remaining 20.51 points to complete the team? 2.5 on a reserve and 2 X 9.00 riders? That would certainly make for a strong line-up and change people's opinion of us finishing bottom.

May have read this wrong....but speedway in the 70's was far more appealing/entertaining than speedway of today...IMO

I think it will be us/Newcastle and Scunthorpe battling it out for 'bottom' spot....no surprises!

Hooray....somebody that doesn't have B'ham bottom! LOL (now that's not bad considering we don't know our final 3)

Well the riders certainly have great role models for a pantomime....'BSPA'!!!

Great prices for the youth....I think the problem with 'youth' pricing is that you can never tell what age they are and you'll get 14 year olds pretending to be 11 in some cases. I'd look at charging £2.50 for all youths up to 16......may be under 5's go free....it's a tough one and always going to be a challenge. Look at running a competition in local newspapers to win tickets..... Offer local schools free tickets to get new attendees. Advertise....give out free/discounted tickets at local shopping Centres. Put adverts in B'ham/Villa football programme's.... Just throwing it out there....

Covatti would be incredible! Can't see Sedgman or Proctor adding any value.
