So, was that the announcement we've all been waiting for? 😁

Good news for Birmingham, team should be the strongest it has been all season, especially with Jeppesen dropping to reserve.

I feel Hume had to have known he was a temporary signing, even if Birmingham didn't tell him Zagar would take his spot when he got a visa, looking at the strength of the team & how they've struggled he'd surely know his team spot was not secure.

So I'd prefer to look at it as if Birmingham gave him an unexpected extra few matches after losing his spot at Sheffield, rather than feel like he's been dropped twice through no fault of his own.

That's been common knowledge for the last 2 years?

Yes, common knowledge they were moving but not when. Why the question mark, are you asking for confirmation?

From Birmingham Official Site

IT is with great sadness that we confirm that Birmingham Speedway will close its doors at the end of the 2025 season.

Club CEO Nigel Tolley said: “It’s something I never wanted to say, but this will be the last year of speedway in Birmingham.

“I think everyone will be aware of the approaching redevelopment works planned for the site at Perry Barr and work will begin shortly after the lodging of the planning application which is imminent.

“The greyhounds are moving out of the venue at the end of the summer and our lease at Perry Barr runs out in September.

“We have discussed every possibility of us remaining at Perry Barr, but we have now exhausted all our options and the situation will, sadly, not be changing.

“I know the news won’t come as a major surprise to the majority - but it doesn’t mean it won’t hurt any less.

“We may not have masses of numbers who come through our gates at Perry Barr, but the Brummies do have a small band of truly loyal supporters who stick by us through thick and thin and this will be devastating news to those few hundred people.

“There’s not much else to say on the matter really except let’s savour each and every racenight us Brummies have got left at Perry Barr and let’s hope we can all make some lasting memories between now and the end of the season.”

The Curtis Sport Brummies host league leaders Ipswich in the ROWE Motor Oil Premiership on Monday (May 19, 7.30pm

Really sad.

I don’t understand putting this statement out now, even though we all knew it was coming the whole Birmingham set up is on a downer because of results and that statement is only going to add to that.
