    understandable, coming from Poole, that you don't know what a 'motorway blade' is

    The drainage shown in the pictures aren't for houses cause the normal procedure with house building is that the oversite (the lower part of the house from the foundations to damp course/ finished floor level) is built before any internal drainage (the pipework for the outlets coming from in the house like toliets, baths, showers sinks) is constructed. From what I can see there are no oversites for houses in the pictures. To me its looks the pipework has been built in readiness for prefabricated structures to be delivered and fixed onto them. - I've seen in reports that the new stands at the Stadium will be prefabricated structures! Lets hope we see Swindon along with other defunct tracks back next season!

    Which makes it all the more galling. In twice seen him this season he's passed more riders than he did in a full season he was with us. Kept sub par equipment here, flew in rode a few seconds and thirds and flew out. Then all you hear on TV is how he never gives less than 100% no matter what he rides for. Was most definitely not the case for us And what was worse is allied vehicles went out their way to provide him with significant sponsorship while was in GPs and even afterwards before he signed. And that was how they were repaid?

    He certainly is.. A pity he cannot ride in EVERY meeting that takes place... But. Fair play to him though... He does try and do so.....

    I know most Glasgow fans have little time for him after he appeared to rip the pish with us but you can't deny he is still fantastic entertainment.

    he was carrying too much speed and went into the side of starky and knocked him off he even came round after the race and said that to paul

    Surely Newcastle fans prefer to watch their team getting pumped live at the speedway than the football on the telly

    Sorry…..not from where I stand near the starting gate. No deliberate infringement by Harris but he cut in front of Starke leaving him no option but to lay down. Couldn’t believe the exclusion light not going on immediately and neither could the other fans around me watching from that viewpoint.

    Pretty much on the money - and Michelson breezing in over Pawlicki too. Cracking night.

    Oh dear, if it was known to have been planned a fortnight ago surely cancel any meetings that it might affect if it’s a legit plan of course. Unless you are accusing the club as not having the foresight to postpone a meeting well before this was planned and happy to allow it to look suspicious? If it was planned it was planned very poorly. Either way it all looks very dodgy or unprofessional whichever way you wish to view it.

    This is true. As I stated before the facility at the Abbey was a recent convenience, a modern 'Toilette De Stade' if you like, built as it was in 1947 compared to the more tue historical 'back straight cess trenches' circa 1895 at the Boulevard in Hull , which I visited once - and only once. Ironic that Hull Angels, Hedon finished up at the Abbey in 1949. But historical interest (sarcasm ?) aside, as a self-confessed track anorak I watch the developments in Swindon with interest, the shortened and re-shaped track was great & better than I thought it would be if I'm being honest, just needs a stadium around it.....

    Bottom line is who expected Ipswich to win? me amd mate had put us down for a 10 point loss so for us was a great result. When we have all 7 riders firing we are as good as most. As with the Ipswich town FC forum when they lose the site is on fire with comments but when they win it all goes quiet. Shows most just want their team to fail maybe?

    That surely isn’t even up for debate. World class riders that have been as loyal to British speedway as he has over the years are as rare as rocking horse sh!t.

    The 'not trying to race' regulation is there for a specific reason and I don't think really intended for riders still in the race. I suppose they could theoretically be excluded from the race under that regulation, but what's to say they're not having engine issues of their own? So provided they complete the race within the time limit, it's reasonable to award the point.

    You must have missed Leon Flint getting himself involved as usual. Strutting around the pits thinking he's a big time Charlie with a long woman's coat on.

    The replacement for Nigel needs to have a strong sense of humour and be a non ex rider (like Nigel!) to prevent the commentary getting bogged down with nerdy detail. Why Sam continues to secure employment remains one of the great mysteries of the world. I'm sure Sam is an all round top bloke and he certainly was a great rider, but as a commentator and analyser he is disastrous.
