    Russia should not be in Ukraine full stop no arguments not their country

    Superb presentation, tons of overtaking, what more can you want? Superb commentary in very difficult circumstances. Nothing to moan about here.

    You see what Russian soldiers are doing in Ukraine right ? and both of them are Russian Soldiers in reserves and i have read Laguta comments about the conflict too and he was supportive of Putin so you might want to stop this nonsense that they should be riding in GP.

    Russian nor Belarus tennis players will not be at Wimbledon tennis this year. I have said it on here before, there is a strong link between Polish and Ukraine citizens, a lot stronger then you may think. And the hatred for Russia now is quite strong. Likely to continue until the population in Russia open their eyes and realise they have a one man government.

    And for the love of all that is holy when are they going to have a super slo mo camera on the start/finish line for close finishes. A big fail for Discovery, it's 2022 and we're still looking at blurred images at 30fps from a camera at an angle!

    What are you talking about? Kelvin Tatum is an experienced commentator, in fact he's probably got more experience now in commentating than he had riding speedway!

    can see Zmarzlik doing the same evry GP, he just ups his game come semi and final. the speed he gets going into corners is incredible

    Do you mean “if so and so does this, and thingymajig does that” one nullifies the other, so it doesn’t matter. Thing is today, there are so many bad things happening in the world, and it gets publicised so much, people tend to “put it to one side” it’s “become normal”. “It doesn’t matter”. All lives matter. There are 10’s of thousands killed in Ukraine, young men, older men, women, children…. nothing to do with Putins “special operation”. There are mothers in Russia, their young sons will probably never be returned even in a body bag because bodies of soldiers are just buried…..consumables to satisfy the desire of a nutter…….. it’s like Hitler all over again. And just like the 2nd world war…… the “world” knows atrocities are happening and doing nothing…until it’s all over then court cases will be held, maybe in 10 or 20 years perpetrator’s that are still alive will face a trial. It’s all too late

    Track was to slick mate seems a recurring theme when we lose at home. Fair play to Plymouth though looked a decent outfit

    Maybe it is time to replace the Speedway Regulations with some guidelines or a 'suggestion book'

    show us where it states the date that teams 1-7 has to be declared for the coming league season, the league cup has nothing to do with the league. Belle Vue declared their 1-7 before the league starts. So from now until 25% of league fixtures are completed no team with their declared 1-7 can make changes. That's how it reads, if it included the league cup, it would of been included in the wording.

    Well It’s hard and I am proud of Kelvin for stepping up to the plate. The show must go on and all that. It’s going to take a bit of time to get going. Well done to Chris Louis stepping into Kelvins shoes and Kelvin for stepping into Scoops. Not easy and I commend their efforts. I hope there’s no moaning about commentary. If there is they deserve any crap aimed at them.

    From Dan Gilke's facebook page........ Quick update on Dan the man. Following from his Heat 14 crash Dan was admitted last night at Scunthorpe General with 5 broken ribs, collapsed lung and several fractures on his right arm. He will need surgery on his arm, but that will have to wait until his lung injury has improved. As a family we would like to thank all the track staff and medical staff for the care you gave him on track. Thanks to Ben Barker, Harry McGurk, Hans Anderson and his mechanic for going above and beyond and helping Dan's sister pack up the van. We will keep you updated on his progress and would like to thank you all for your kind wishes. This is explains why a second paramedic was called for and why it took a long time in checking him over and transferring him. Hope he has speedy recovery.

    Ianb is super critical about almost everything! If Ianb says there was plenty of passing then you'd better believe it. And he is correct this time!

    Always remember Keith Kershaw losing patience with Greg Hancock dawdling at the start at Monmore in the early 90s, so promptly marched over and banged his fist against the the handlebar, causing Hancock to jump out of his skin!

    Got to ask… what’s with the swapping of reserves all the time?! Why not just put Congreve at 6 and Complin at 7?! Poor George Congreve must wonder why he’s bothered to come over when he’s the sacrificial lamb being put in the far harder heats! Should’ve let him be in his rides and left Lee in his! Like i thought would happen, he certainly hasn’t forgot how to ride here.. one of the very few who has the balls big enough to go as wide as what is needed! Anyways, seems we’re likely to be without Leon for today.. I made a suggestion to crescent girl last night about a potential guest with Leon being our 3rd heat leader (apparently you can do that this season). Whether or not we go guest or rr, with all bar Bomber being able to take a ride, will be interesting!

    Just got in, just watched it... Do you think that his peers will ever think to ride the inside line to block Zmarzlik? If he goes around you then fair enough.. But dont give the fella a free pass... A truly superb rider but FFS he will nine times our of ten spear the bike at you into turn three... Hint. Ride the white line against him if you get in front because he is faster than you.. Five years at least he has done the same dive bomb and been allowed to do it.. As for Woffy?.. A gradual erosion of capability which is perfectly natural given age and responsibilities increase... Far too many times over the past few years it has been a case of "wrong place, wrong time"... That isnt unlucky... Top ten at best this year for Tai... For Gorican though, a very good meeting....

    So you saying the people in Russia get a fair vote. Most of Putins opposers are dead or in jail. A Russian member of Parliament said that parliament was never consulted about these “special operations” in Ukraine. The soldiers did not know what they were going into, some reports they were told nothing, others they would be welcome with open arms and be home within a week. You cannot defend the blatant killing (murder) of ordinary citizens, shelling of hospitals, normal housing, the brutal rapes. Too late when the investigations into war crimes are produced.

    Yes, all very enjoyable. Zmarzlik will take some beating though, to state the obvious. Can’t wait to go to one live again but meanwhile the tv coverage was indeed excellent. Kelvin and Chris are a good team, especially tonight under the circumstances, hope Chris continues in the role as he provides some interesting insights. And a big thank you to everyone whose first language isn’t English. We take it for granted but I wish I could be so fluent in a foreign tongue.
