The H Man

Jason didn't declare himself fit until earlier after a spin yesterday, was that fair on Sam Hagon to say we will let you know in the morning if we need you for BV not? Rising Stars are on Fixed Terms

Wait for the next bit of team news!!!

https://www.brummies.tv Match will be live streamed from 7.25pm

Yes they did

Correct! 👍

As some of you may know, for my sins I am Director and minor shareholder in Birmingham Speedway. Now isn't the right time for me to comment on the rights or wrongs of Promotional decisions on team building etc. Nigel Tolley has bankrolled the club for the past few seasons and for that the Brummies fans and sport in general should be grateful, otherwise the club would have folded at the end of the 2022 campaign and a poor team is still better than no team at all as I am sure many fans of defunct tracks would agree. With 2025 being the final year for the club at Perry Barr, Nigel obviously wanted it to be a successful one, so his plan was to put together a side that on paper looked as if it would be in with a shout for the play-off's. As I say the make-up of that team or planning around it isn't for me to comment on at this time, but what I will say is that unfortunately the support in terms of numbers coming through the doors and promised commercial deals have failed to meet expectations. I am not sitting here typing this to disagree with anything people have said on this thread, far from it. I am just highlighting that intentions were for the best even if execution wasn't and that expenditure had to be reduced to ensure that the club continued to fulfil all it's obligations. Cheers, Paul.

Edward’s dislocated shoulder ☹️

Of course things can change but last I heard VP only wanted championship as he has a young family and doing prem as well wouldn't suit.

Yikes - did I say that! I meant signing of the month

That's sad news - R.I.P Len

leave you to ask the promoter/team manager that one! I was just pointing out, that he wasn't paid silly money just to turn up!

Assume you mean Pawlicki? Both Poles and Milik were on point money, no guarantees!

The Directors of the club will be issuing a Press Release at Noon today.

Sad to read that Graham has passed, he was a nice guy. Condolences to his family & friends.

There is limited on-site car parking but plenty of space in overflow car park just 5 mins walk from stadium food options at one stop shopping centre across the road or fast food options in stadium see you Monday.

Must have been Big Phil and Cecil's evidence that did it! Seriously, well done to all involved and good luck with next steps.

You won't have long to find out mate!

I'm sure Phil the Ace will be the first to let us know when the top 2 are signed and sealed! ;o)

To be fair Dave the set up nearly worked as only the golden tac rule stopped the club winning the grand final.

Yep Jim was TM - Sam was responsible for working with riders on the tech side.

I was working at Reading during that season (2006) Sam was not sacked half way through the season. He was involved throughout.

Allied Presentations signed a 99 year lease with Reading Council in 1974 for the Smallmead land, as already stated for whatever reason a new shorter lease was agreed at some point between council and Allied (under the stewardship of the Dore family). I assume for a cheaper rent In 2001 Allied sold out to Gaming Intl who spent a few quid on stadium bars to bring them up to H&S standards! In 2008 council didn’t offer an extension to short term Lease and sold Smallmead site, a new piece of land (close to existing site a former MX track) was offered several years before that to GI who gained planning permission to build a racino (speedway, dogs and Casino) of course surprise surprise it never happened and eventually the council sold that piece of land off for industrial use. The original Smallmead site lies barren but for match day football parking a lot of people have a lot to answer for - but prospects for speedway in town are about as close to zero as you can get.
