So much negativity. Every post I see you put on here is negative or putting a downer on something. Everything might be cancelled but no harm in some positivity.

Too true. I've been quite happy with BT until now and I've never really been fussed about moving to Sky, but this has changed all that. 30 days notice going in as soon as I can get through to their xal centre!

The statements that have been made about this year's Ben Fund, including those above, have been nothing short of a horror show. The principle of the meeting is great and I'm sure everyone would like to see hundreds of thousands raised, but the line up is shocking, and to expect people to just turn up is not a great advertisement. Never mind the fact it's in Scunthorpe, in March, in the middle of a global pandemic.

I'd say that considering his career that's quite a poor line up, hopefully there's a big crowd.

Has an actual speedway official honestly just said this in a press release? "In a few years time people will have forgotten about Danny (Ayres) and his family, Ricky (Ashworth) and Garry (Stead) but the Ben Fund won’t. And like all the paraplegics from speedway in the country they will be looked after on a regular basis." Absolutely disgraceful. http://www.speedwaygb.co.uk/news.php?extend.37968

At least NP has never been booted out of a GP for race fixing.

I'd argue on more or less every track. Worrall is nothing more than a Premier League heatleader now (not even a number one). Would Worrall be competitive in a Speedway of Nations final, never mind score double figures? No.

Usually a negative when people stick up for someone using their effort as their best quality. Surely it's expected that any manager would give their all, that's nothing special. If effort is his biggest quality then he can't have much else to write home about.

It'd be the ultimate irony, and some would say absolutely superb.

Woffinden or Zmarzlik for me.

Summed it up perfectly. Some very strange decisions being made. It's good that there are new owners and a new lease of life afforded to the club, but not of it ends up as the next Stole or similar, fighting for the wooden spoon every year.

I don't suppose you've spotted any Polish meetings scheduled for 02/05, have you? We're in Gorzow from 30/04-03/05 to see the Gorzow-Czestochowa on the 01/05 but it'd be nice to catch some more the day after.

As always, you can't fault the new promotion for giving it their best (and delivering already, to some extent). However, you're pretty much spot on, it does look like someone a high school pupil would design for a project. I suppose we can only hope it improves as time goes on and further feedback is given.

Dudek?

It'd be good to see Worrall back to where he was, he really did look like he could kick on til he was fenced in 2018. It's a shame it didn't work for him at Newcastle but it'd be good for Britain to have another decent rider in the mix.
