First this season perhaps but nothing new in the grand scheme of the last couple of years as fans of Rye House and Glasgow will tell you. The irony of your post is that your top three are probably one of the strongest in the league on paper as well. Offered Schlein, Harris and Covatti or Kennett, Lawson and Kerr I reckon you’d have a near 50-50 split on the trio fans would take. Eastbourne have a longer tail than yours but their home track advantage negates that in the case of Saturday’s meeting. If you thought Atkins and Rowe should have been getting anything out of Brennan and Wood round Arlington then you’ve not done your homework.

Good as neither are of the standard required to do that - Buster totally messed up our team that looked so promising in the winter so he will have to be prepared to take the financial hit for his decisions when things go pear-shaped. As my parents always taught me - to every action there are consequences!

Phillips is just not upto it full stop he averaged less than a point last season and hasn’t improved in a weaker league. Pretty sure George knows it but daddy’s money buys him a place.

You’ll see jack riding no.8 all season I’d expect unless for injuries. It’s quite farcical as I understand it - can only have 3 foreign riders from your squad declared in the 1-7 for any given match but can have a 4th foreigner as no.8 - so Toruń use Doyle, c.holder and iversen, they then declare a junior polish squad member in the team at say no.4 but don’t have to ensure he has 3 rides or anything so then just put jack in wherever they feel like! I think they can even declare a polish rider in the team as r/r and then have foreigner at no.8! Seems barmy to me! Yet polish league is supposedly the promised land!

Take a bow Max Clegg, awesome tonight!! Great to see Diamonds back to winning ways

The thing is under Ged you always felt he had one eye on strengthening up whenever possible and he was never afraid to make changes. Under Buster? Who knows!

Strikes me as if they're waiting for team changes elsewhere. Most likely Nicholls or Thorsell.

What fun! Stan Burza still riding & coming 3rd in 1st round Hungarian Chanps (1st Pepe Franc!!).

And with the reds just been relegated this weekend,and town hardly endearing themselves in a piss poor league, the future of the new stadium looks even brighter,get the shades out

Perfect choice then - he can shove his words right up his @£$€

One race win at Cardiff 12 years ago seem to have given Harris an aura that quite a few people can’t look past. He’s a very inconsistent rider and only going in one direction. He hasn’t helped himself in my book by becoming a member of the club within the sport who label fans with opinions they don’t like online as “keyboard warriors.” So unprofessional. Get on with your job that we pay you to do. Give me Scott Nicholls any day. When we had both men at Rye Scott was just as entertaining when behind, he just didn’t find himself in that position as often as Harris. Five years down the line if both are still riding then I’d imagine Nicholls will be at a similar level to where he is now, Harris will probably be a five point man or taking pocket money from kids in the NL.

That's handy. I started in Lynchwood on April 1st and do get a bit stuck sometimes for lunch. Where is your McDonalds?

I think a tenner is ample for a single adult charge and five for kids.

Just looked it Baggy. Ronni did ride one meeting for us in 2002. You are correct it was 2001 he rode. Did 10 meets. The rider i think you couldn’t remember was Jernej Kolenko. Wasnt the best season, summed up with Fast Freddie Eriksson ending up 3rd in the averages on 6.33 Kugelmann rode in 01 (1.83 average) not 02

Kennett? Refused? wtf

Decent meeting and a fair result.the home win was never really in doubt the the visitors battled away to keep the meeting close,and have to be favourites to progress through to the next round some entertaining racing and good effort from both sides,again track prepped smoth and consistant done and dusted quickly ,which was good as that dam east wind had a bite to it big bonus-------never saw a tractor all night Perfect!

Absolutely 100% true.

13000 at Wroclaw

anyone got any pics or video of Craig Cook and Richard Lawson shaking hands and respecting each other racing ? looks like they are all lovey dovey now .......Richard included in the testimonial ...

A superb gesture, not that I've ever had a speedway season ticket. Plenty of football ones though.

Someone at Eastbourne Speedway properly understands marketing and selling the product. Tell 'em, tell 'em again and then tell em. Drumming up interest for a big crowd --- surely that's what every promoter in the land should be doing? Sadly, they fail on that score nearly every time. Bomber Harris is a big attraction -- bang the drum and let people know he's coming. He's a name people in speedway know.

Well I'm one of those 'wealthy' Londoners that go to Kent on a regular basis and I'm flabbergasted at what Lennie is charging for NL racing. In my eyes he is taking advantage of an excellent fan base, who will probably continue to line his pockets.

A fact or your opinion? If a fact, please show everyone the attendance figures for each club last season or point us to this information. Good luck

Marksman, not everyone is on twitter. Personally I think Sunday would have been a better day.

Possibly both
