Remember Hans has Danish League commitments on many Wednesdays - even though the Danish League has its seasonal break in July Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Thompson boys will come good , they we’re quality at the end of last season and I’m sure they’re ironing out problems Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crowds of around 400 to 450 Landlords who seem uninterested in Speedway. An Owner who in his own words has already put in and lost 250k Concerns about Planning Permissions for development of the area not already developed A poor side is immaterial compared to those hurdles.

heathen52 Posted June 18, 2023 Report Share Posted June 18, 2023 (edited) They have obviously signed someone to replace James Pearson (Sam Hagon ?) and Kenyan Rew to replace James Wright would be a very good signing, they simply have to beat Berwick at Perry Barr on wednesday if they are to have any hope of making the play offs.

Only thing about Rew is you would have to pay to fly him in and out of Poland? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
InTheDeepStuff Posted June 18, 2023 Report Share Posted June 18, 2023 Rew was abysmal at Owlerton on Thursday, he’s really struggled anywhere apart from odd good meeting at Foxhall, not really seen what the hype is about him in UK and think if there’s inconsistency in the Perry Bar track he’ll struggle there also Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

heathen52 Posted June 19, 2023 Report Share Posted June 19, 2023 Well they haven't signed a new Aussie but have an old Aussie, there are a few of them over at Edgbaston as well , as for Sam he is young and will only get better he is British, fair play to Brum for giving it a go. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
the hobbit Posted June 19, 2023 Report Share Posted June 19, 2023 First thing we need to go now, is change the riding order : 1: Morris 2: Dan Thompson 3: Sedgemen 4: Bowtell 5: Batchelor 6: Hagon 7: Joe Thompson 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HGould Posted June 19, 2023 Report Share Posted June 19, 2023 It has all the hallmarks of a Soccer Team deep in relegation mire throwing silly money at a has been midfielder whose legs have gone in a vain attempt to stay up. Batchelor will get 10 or 11 for a few weeks they'll soon become 6 or 7 and no doubt he'll be on over a grand a meeting by fair means or foul in terms of a guarantee. Sam Hagon is worth a bash but we'll never own him and is he better than Pearson? Not really enthused reither way. Will it bring back the 300 to 400 more we need to be sustainable... Not a chance 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes. Can only imagine the uproar had Rogers brought in an Aussie that hasn't turned a wheel all year with more than a questionable attitude, and a development rider to push for the play offs.... But, fair play to Tolley for putting his money where his mouth is. Hope it pays off. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
