Birmingham Brummies 2023

I never thought I’d say this but it wouldn’t bother me if the season ended Tommorow, it seems the team I support have become a complete laughing stock amongst many fans I can understand giving young Ben a place this season if you had a solid rider supporting him in the other reserve berth but to put a youngster with a complete unknown is crazy and no one will convince me otherwise and then when you realise it’s not working to leave it this long without doing something I just don’t get it at least Birmingham are being proactive, the next few days will be very interesting.I realise I’ve hijacked the Birmingham thread again and I’m very sorry for that.

Be careful what you wish for, look what happened to Newcastle last year.

sounds like you'll be disappointed ....

I hope not.

I can’t stand  mardy/ moody gits who regularly throw tantrums, throw their toys out of the pram and worst of all, stop trying and give up at the back when things aren’t going their way.

thats because the second div thinks its the first div and some teams can't keep up, needs a rethink

Scary thought that Batchelor is still without a ride

Please God, NO NO. NO  NO 

I don't understand the anti-Batchelor comments, he has a 7+ average. So on this season's form he'd be an improvement for every Birmingham rider!

Been a laughing stock for a few years to be fair!

Like, banning any rider with an average of, say, over 8 in the Premiership from riding in the Championship? That would mean that riders with an awkward average would get a team place instead of being unemployable, as now.

So lets presume Hagon for Pearson and a solid 3rd heat leader for Wright (Howarth?). What other changes are coming? Surely Nielson will be replaced?

There are some gems out there, its just the small matter of finding them.

Again more points available when the next lot of averages are released, 2 or 3 maybe?  Rew for Neilson????

I haven't done any maths but all of a sudden I see a very solid lineup.

Whilst LR was in charge, the "Tactical Facility" was a staple of the Brummies lineup almost since day one. Let's hope that with a new team manager, the Brummies can go back to being a 7-man team again.

The 2 names that I have heard mentioned are one newcomer and one old hand ie Rew and Andersen, would they both fit ?, I think Rew would be a very good signing, Andersen is just earning his pension money these days.
