    Plymouth Gladiators 2024

    Your club is a shambles and ever since joining the middle tier , under Bowden and current management, there is always something going on thats not good. Those pictures of your track work summed up the level the clubs at. That JCB must be at least 40 years old? Plymouth is a third tier club. My club Newport in the last 6 or 7 years of its existence was also just a third tier club operating beyond their means in the second tier. I didn't admit it at the time as , as a fan, you want your team operating in the highest league possible. But on such low crowds it should of been in the National / Conference league. Plymouth is a third tier club. Admit it and move on. Do you think the likes of Glasgow or Poole would struggle so much with replacing a heatleader? No chance.

    Could tell from the pictures ages ago the track was a long way off being anywhere near ready. Place looked like a quagmire amongst a bomb site. Plymouth shouldn't be anywhere near middle tier speedway to be honest.

    Wont be Garrity surely.

    Brummies v Tigers 25/3

    Haven't got going yet? Its meeting number 2 for god sake. You really do bring it on yourself with your thick comments. Birmingham doing well fair play and a big crowd in sounds good. Hopefully hold on for a win.

    If that is the case then why not pull the plug instead of driving yourself further into debt?

    Brummies 2024...

    What part of my message is knocking the club? But for what its worth, its an absolutely mental decision for Brum to of gone up a league with such a poor side. Have struggling sides attracted good crowds previously? No. So they had to take a gamble and go up with a league challenging side to have a chance of making this work. And they haven't built a league challenging side. Its bottom of the table material unless big changes are made. The top 2, one is injured before a wheel has been turned and the other looks like being well out of his depth at number 1. Doesn't bode well, does it? Would of been far better staying in middle tier and building a title winning side. Fair enough asking home fans to back the club and turn up but others who aren't fans of the club can see exactly what is going to happen.
  7. Seen some video footage on social media earlier of the state the stadium is now in... such a shame. Had a couple of great days there for the PL4TT in late 90s and early 00s. Brilliant track, IMO the best in British Speedway. Now gone. Its going to be an on going thing for stadiums that are built on other peoples land are going to continue falling by the wayside.

    Can see Riss replacing Milik eventually.

    Wasn't Courtney banned once for failing a drug test? May not of been , it would of been a while ago. Garrity was allegedly into all sorts of drugs but that seemingly isn't the issue. Roger Lobb and Frank Smart were banned for failed tests yet came back and were successful - Smart's best season was the year he came back after he was banned. Its the crimes Garrity committed whilst under the influence of drugs that sit badly with anyone with any self respect or morals. Mugging OAPs is one of the lowest crimes you can commit. No excuses , drug addict or not.

    Calls for a second chance for that crackhead Garrity are ridiculous. The guys a junkie who robbed old and vulnerable people. Has a big history of robbing team mates as well and being nothing but hassle as well as being a liability on track. Should never be granted a license to ride ever again and Lewy's comments must of been a wind up as nobody with half a brain would post such rubbish.
  11. Exactly. regardless of what anybody says or thinks , charging 15 quid for that is robbery. Same as Leicester charging 12 quid for a league match. Its not value for money at all. some people maybe happy paying it , and good on them, but don't come on here saying its great value . It isnt.

    Kennett crashed heavily in his opening ride and smashed his arm in, didnt he?

    One thing that has made me laugh on this thread is how people slam the rules yet want Pawlicki to turn up and "do a Kennett" so they can replace him with guests? Pawlicki missing is a big loss. I would still be shocked if he takes part in more than 6 meetings for Birmingham over a full season.
  14. Have said it before, Doyle gets unfair stick. He has given the UK and world speedway nothing but 100 percent since he made his debt in Europe. He raced for Newport in 2011, had a knackered shoulder all season but still give nothing but 100 percent and put off getting surgery until after we had secured the KO cup trophy. Can be a little reckless on track but thats through over trying more than anything else. A brilliant rider and will be hugely missed once he retires. But I reckon thats still a while away and he will almost certainly be in the top 3 averages come the end of the season.

    Hans Andersen retires

    That one series when he replaced Rickardsson half way through, he would of walked to the title had he been in the series had he been in it from the start.

    Wonder if Cook has packed the booze in ready for the new season?

    Workington 2024

    Stonehewer back in early 2000s was rumoured to be on around that figure so given that was 20 years ago, it wouldn't seem unlikely to be the case now.

    Brummies 2024...

    Who would that be then? As in the three years LR was at Newport the teams were announced very quickly. Tim Stone in his latter years at Newport would take ages to declare his side - I remember one year the season had already started and we hadn't announced our number 1!

    Workington 2024

    You have to be joking surely! as much as he was great to watch , he was absolutely a dirty and reckless rider. Ask Dave Mullet and Craig Watson for a start! And Simon Stead !

    Skidmark bitter as hell that they missed out on the Aussie . Pathetic but does anyone expect anything less?

    He is, dont trust anything he says. Defrauded the government out of near 100k as well. All online to see .

    What were crowds like the year Brum topped the El table and lost the playoff final ??

    Poole 2024

    If Thomsen was signed on a 7 or 9 i would agree however he is on a 4, hardly the end of the world is it?

    Even with a top 10 point number one thats an awful side.
