BRUMMIES PLEDGE SHAKE-UP

BIRMINGHAM CEO Nigel Tolley admits the club’s supporters deserve more after a week of “unacceptable performances.”

The Brummies lost 61-29 in the KO Cup at Scunthorpe on Friday, one week after conceding 64 points at Glasgow in the Cab Direct Championship, whilst in between was a heavy home defeat against Oxford.

Tolley said: “There’s no defending the indefensible and while the majority of results this season have been way below expectation, the performances over the past week in particular have been unacceptable.

“When we took over this club as a consortium, we said we wanted to be as transparent with supporters as we possibly could so this is where we’re at.

“On Thursday, we called an emergency Directors meeting where we spent hours running through all sorts of different things and addressing different issues.

“It goes without saying that a shake-up is needed and that will be happening.

“There are a number of things we have read from supporters that we as Directors are not satisfied with ourselves and please be assured we are doing what we can behind the scenes to make sure we come to the right decisions with the best interests of the club at heart.”
