What is the saying they like to use: “for the best interests commercially for British speedway” 

And that other one they like to use....

"Why can't we ever just run the sport properly in this country?"

You're never wrong on anything mate👍How has it ended up like it is at Brum?🙄How I miss the laughs and the piss takes we used to get up to when our paths crossed🤣

Looks like I was wrong on this one mate, to be honest I forgot about Zach Cook situation last season.

What went wrong at Birmingham, for me the Phillips regime played a part, I don't think that Birmingham have ever recovered.

Tony Mole did a lot of good at Birmingham, but one thing he got wrong was selling the club to Phillips.

Like yourself I miss the times that we used to meet up and the laughs that we shared.

The Polish trip was the best Me, You, Junior and Glasgow legendary fan Paulco,  I could write a book about the trip.

Getting stuck with Bongo Brian (Whatever happened to him).

Dancing with the Polish fans at the GP at Leszno.

Going for drink afterwards with the Polish fan, who spoke very little English, and spent a good couple of hours showing me the same photo's of his wife and tractor.

Watching the riot police chasing the Bydgoszcz fans in Gniezno.

Hard to believe that this happened 14 years ago.

Fun times mate.

I wonder whatever happened to the Fartettes?

Castagna comes in on 4.74.  I wonder if Brum were limited on the replacement of Zagar, i.e. they were only allowed 5.40 for guests?  Either way, there ain't many Champ riders available ...

Birmingham had 9.66 available to replace Zagar. Could've picked anyone in the world, apparently Castagna was the strongest rider willing to come?

If they had known Gusts was getting dropped, I'd have given him a shot ahead of Hume tbh

Looking at Workington meeting I think Birmingham made the wrong decision letting Voulas go.

I agree Vuolas has been very disappointing, but I wouldn't expect Hume to be an improvement.

I guess if it saves money on air fares I can understand it, as the difference in points scored will not be great.

George from Glasgow being stopped from boarding a bus back home from Brum after the Weegies won at Perry Barr and left at Digbeth Coach station🤔🤔🤔

Even funnier was Glasgow supporter Willie,going missing from Perry Barr in the middle of a meeting and George and Bongo playing basketball during the interval🤣🤣🤣🤣

The interview with Clean Cut Sports with George,Paulco and Shane Parker🤣🤣🤣🤣

My name is Jacob.🤣🤣🤣

Bollingers at Owlerton🙄🙄🙄

Tear gas coming through the air vents in a pub next to Gneizno stadium😬😬😬

I agree, 3 stronger riders have gone elsewhere, Kerr, Cook & Sedgmen. I don't know if Brummies tried them, but I'd rate them all ahead of Castagna & Hume.

Been better with Victor Palavora
