The shock announcement was made on Tuesday morning leaving Bullets fans wondering what possible resemblance Coach Randall's side will bear to the old one. Nigel, in his final playing season, will now look for a new team with a possible coaching opportunity in the near future.
Nigel finishes his Bullets career as the leading scorer in the clubs history. Let's hope someday he comes back as head coach of the Bullets. Good luck at your new club!
Burnsy's back though
Last season's Mr Dependable, Joel Burns has signed a new contract with the club, the length of which is unknown, but is thought to be of around 2-3 years in keeping with chairman Craig Bown's long term strategy. A recent announcement by Richard Parker said
"Europe is a big ambition for us. We would love to represent the BBL in the SuproLeague and fly the flag for Britain.
"We will not give up on this ambition. We were disappointed that we didn't get a wildcard into the SuproLeague, but we believe that the Bullets are a club that could compete in Europe and we want a chance to prove ourselves at the highest level possible."
Hear hear. Towers only got in because they're from London.
still the Pertemps Bullets
Pertemps were the second name back for another year after the re-signing of Joel Burns, and will keep their name in the title of the club, the Pertemps Bullets Birmingham. Still can't quite get used to it but ah, well. If you wanna know more about them go to www.Pertemps.co.uk and find out they're just a recruitment agency. (No mention of the Bullets on their site though- what's that about?)
