    What’s scores are a good reserve supposed to regularly score then? If a reserve is banging 9,10,11s regularly then they aren’t a reserve are they 

    Good reserve would score 5 to 7..but the subject is being best in the lesgue so 9 or 10 from 5.etc..of course if  you are the best  reserve in the league they wont at reserve for long.. but surely that just common sense.

    Poor form ? Now you are definitely on the wind up. The arrival of Tai had seen them linking up really well and Kerr back on form. Not sure what you expect from a number 6, but his last 6 meetings for Sheffield were 5, 7, 5+1, 6, 6+2, 9+4.

    For the so called best Reserve in the league ..i dont think 5 7 6. 6  is really anything to shout about....Gilkes outscored him in one those matches .

    I think that you will find that Kerr has only been dropped once due to poor form, and that was the 2022 season at Kings Lynn.

    Sheffield last season was down to the injuries to other riders and nothing to do with his form.

    I would say that Palm Toft is a gamble he never seems to finish a season without injury. 

    A matter of opinion..Kerr was in poor form just before the team changes  .But at the end of day he was dropped- replaced no matter what the reasons.. .

    You haven’t just given your opinion though have you, Orion. Everybody (well most) can see right through your trolling drivel. You can not rate it as much as others, no problem. But you’ve gone with the reactionary bait setting “garbage” “terrible side” which it blatantly isn’t and you know it. You’re one of two things, you’re either completely and utterly clueless about Speedway, or you’re a trolling tool. You’ll no doubt attempt another illiterate comeback doubling down on your “opinion”, but as I say, most see right through your inane drivel. 

    The main thing is not  to bite thou yea ..lol

    You people need to stop biting. Orion is a sad little tool who only posts controversial takes for bites and you’re all making his life easy by jumping straight in his net. 

    Yes saying Oxford are a poor side on a speedway forum  is so controversial .Watch out for the snowflakes outside.

    What Oxford will have is the strongest reserve in the league throughout the season as it’ll mainly be Kerr. I’m not sure there will be a better one tbh. 

    Kings Lynn will have the best reserve..People keep going on about Kerr but he hardly ever makes a full season without being dropped.

    What in gods name are you talking about :rofl: This team in brilliant and the addition of Maciej to British speedway (not to mention the return of Nicolai and Rohan) are huge... Charles and Bomber are great riders also and the reserves look strong (Assuming Boughen doesn't burn himself out after a big start to his career, but even if he did there's a few RS options out there still)

    Am crying with laughter...this team is brillant  lol . I seen some funny things on forum but this unreal .somehow  a team.with no heat leaders is a great team. You got to love speedway fans fantatic comedy...

    A decent side in my view, orion is on a wind up. It is more strength in depth, very few reserves will beat Kerr.

    Not on a wind up at all .. this team is garbage ... iF Magic carries on his downward trend they wont have a heat leader .. You have seen the team and understand about speedway ?

    I think this statement has come out to stop the Bspl taking the licence off Ice and allowing someone else a chance . I think it is a way of saying ‘ keep it on ice, we now have a location sorted  but we just need more time’.

    Not that I believe that anything will happen.

    Spot on .

    I really don't know how to feel about that statement. The obvious, first reaction is to ask myself if I trust Clark Osbourne and Terry Russell and the obvious thought is to doubt them.

    But, why would they put out a statement like this if it isn't true? Surely they wouldn't build people's hopes up like this just for their own means. Would they? Osbourne might, but would Russell? Surely he, at least, would think about how fans would feel about that.

    I guess we'll have to wait and see if anything comes of it. Don't forget, after all, that land was secured for a new Reading stadium too, but it as never built.

    If it happens, though, what is this "45 minutes from Swindon" thing all about? I live in Newbury. It used to take 30 minutes to get from there to Blunsdon. And Newbury is hardly Swindon. It's more Reading territory than Swindon. Add another 15 minutes on the motorway and you're at Theale roundabout - which is pretty much Tilehurst.

    I will take some positives from this statement being released, but I'm far from convinced yet that anything will come of it. If it does, I hope it's east of Swindon rather than west!

    Do you really think Tr worries about what fans think about him ..Loads of reasons why the statement has come out and also the timeing of it.  Personally I would  not take  any notice of this statement it's just more garbage

    So many reasons for this garbage.. Quite clearly they were thinking of taking away the licence from him and now they won't be able to  with the promise of this that won't  be found out to be total crap for  about 2 years.. ..its just total bull to buy them more time to knock the stadium down and not allowed anyone else to make a genuine attempt to run speedway in Swindon .On some of the Facebook pages you got some of the Swindon fans talking about it like it was real..so so sad.

    The Entain group run the racecourse and Monmore Green. Now I dont know much about gryhound racing but having  2 greyhound tracks in the same city  would seem foolish ?

    I can only assume Entain will try and sell Monmore Green for redevelopment, hence preparing the gound by booting out the speedway. Planning permission granted :-

     

     

    Yea that looks like the plan  ,Makes perfect sense
