Shane Hazeldon or jack Kingston do they fit another local lads Oh wow what about the Standing Twins Dean and Darren maybe one of them

Read in the speedway star this morning that Dugard has moaned about Cradley gettting the points so i am sure something is going on somewhere, But to be honest i dont think it was anything to do with Cradeley the problem being is that its effected the whole of the league. The problem really is the decision thats been made not of who the clubs who are involved. I dont think Dugard is the only one to moan but he is the only one to put it public and why not its a bad decision and he is right Re Run the metting? everyone earns money that way.

Maybe they want to give the points back to mildenhall

Cant see Brennan being fit, Charlie Powell was looking ok in the Bar at the weekend so and said he was going to be ok in 2 weeks to race in Germany grass track, Cottham is due to be back at the end of the month, maybe we could have a whole team for a change. Saying that we have to go to Kings Lynn the night before so fingers crossed it will be ok. Good to stop Birmingham on the run of meetings a well deserved win for the Eagles with all the bad luck they have had this season.

Halsey is in for Zach so i guess thats an little bit of advantage for us.

Opps that was a mistake trying to iron the shirts and look at the txt dont you just love the smart phones, Hume is racing for Birmingham. I say Hunter has a chance over Bacon as well.

well done a bit of digging and this is whats come out the teams for the weekend. Ellis, Hunter, Wood, Perks RR, Knight, Harris, Brennan. Halsey, Bacon, Hume, Perry, Ritchings, Smith, JPB. just looked at the weather and for a change it looks like its gonig to be ok down there with overcast and brighter 17 degrees later in the afternoon but warm.

Zac is away with James Shanes on the european grass track meeting this weekend, but i am sure there will be a good guest around for him somewhere.?

Good result by the boys well done i am sure it will be enough fingers crossed, cant wait to see the meeting against Birmingham its going to be a tough. But i cant wait.

He is like a ticking time BOMB waiting to show us what he has got, i hope he is able to win a race and show that he can hold himself one good start is all the kid needs as we know he is fast, he just has to be fast in the right places. Looking forward to his first meeting, i heard that Brad was going to be on the spanners for his first meeting?

But in the League they cant use Brennan unless they are going to keep him for the season? nice to see that Luke Harris is not shouting about it and that he is going to enjoy the 2 meetings maybe he will come and watch and cheer the boys on.

Looks as if they have played a good card with Tom, why destroy the kid before he has started, He can do 3 league matches then the 4th match would count on his average which could be quite high if he had a good run, but there is nothing to stop him doing KO Cup matches, Play offs if they make it along with any challange match as long as it does not say league on it. surprised they changed this weeks match with Kings Lynn to KO Cup as a few weeks later Tom could had done it?

I think that i would be correct in saying that if Brennan is able to ride 3 matches then his does not get an average like powell last year and JPB but he would be able to do the KO Cup plus play off matches and anything else that does not have League on it. so we might be able to use him for a few extra meetings this year maybe.

Any news on Cottham and how his operation went? as looking at the photos that was on Facebook seems to be a nasty looking break and he was just starting to feel his way back into the team. shame on the guy. What about Brennan any news on when he or if he will start as i heard that they were going to save him so he wasn't going to get an average, shamefull if thats the case, they need some fire in the belly if they want to take the pressure off the rest of the top teams with better reserves.

Is Brennan ready for it thats the big question also who are they going to drop? have to be stay with RR for Gary as his rides can be covered by Wood and Powell and Another, so thats good for the team then remove Harris for a meeting to build his confidence up and then slot him in keeping Brennan on the side lines to make sure he does not get an average, thats what JPB did last year and Charlie Powell, so big questions for the team again.

See Cradley never got going again at Kings Lynn, saying that its a hard track to go and get points at as we got stuffed there last year

It was a cold day no sun so really should not have seen the blue groove until heats 10 onwards, if that?

I am sorry i disagree with you, lets put the kids on it and see how long it takes from the to get a blue groove? so i guess 15 heats of speedway wont produce a blue groove. The track at Eastbourne does not take a hammering as much in the NL as it did in the EL so bang goes your speculation. Also as you said the PL boys are more skilled they race different lines so do the NL boys just at a different pace. Average times for the PL meeting on Sunday was 58 seconds and for the NL was 60 seconds. you trying telling someone to knock 2 seconds and then tell me thats not wheel spin? or rubber on the ground.

your not that lucky Yes 15 heats of speedway plus 15 heats of speedway is 30. ok look at it this way. would the track go down to a blue groove in a Nl meeting on most meetings at Rye House? No so means that the NL boys and most of them are not racing the bikes as fast, (agreed) powell, harris, locke, leek, bowdry, not putting the rubber on the floor, means less rubber, means less chance of a blue groove. (Correct) Means that track prep can be done and put back to a better state, Since the track has been relaid this winter nobody can say about the blue groove when it will appear and when the original kerb shows going into turn 3 down to the base shows there is not enough material on it at the moment. (Agreed) mmm your thinking i know a lot thats because i do my homework and no what i am talking about, Also only having 2 members of staff who then helped rake the material back in off the fence for the second meeting was also a bit of a lack of support for the NL meeting and track staff. but hey hoe we have all moved on since then. just little things that have come to attension and voiced quite clearly.

If this was on the track as you say i have talked to one of the riders mechanics and at no point did perks start any of the the shouting he returned what ritchings started, then it was Ritchings who was the leader of the foul mouth followed by Perks. Ritchings then then tried to crash into Perks as the end of the race (ReRun) i am told that Martin Dugard went into the pits with Graham Dury to calm Ritchings down and have a quite word with him in the interest of the sport. So i guess the shouting was from both of them and the foul mouth was also from them both but insigated by Ritchings. But this was all following the crash who he was the unfortunate to be collected by Jack Smiths bike. But i guess tempers flare and i was also told that a lot of the fans were also swearing at Perks (including the Kids lol) so i guess the kids picked up the bad language quite quickly

I no he was as i was informed by a person who was there. And the funny thing it was a cradley supporter who informed me as well as an Eastbourne Supporter and both of them had the same story. Ritchings was the loud mouth not perks for a change.

so again you stated something that you didnt really know and you then made it a point of knowing? but really as you said you never stray off the PL/NL Threads, best thing i can suggest is count to 2 then answer the questions.

I am sorry Lord of the shale i think you could say that Richings was the one who was shouting across the pits to Perks as Perks was smilling as Ritchings who was swearing and shoutung mainly in anger, Also the fact that it was the school holidays and Richings was going crazy in the pits has not made any difference as there were no children in the pits as its not allowed also the fact that the nearest spectators are 50ft away from the riders and you cant see the riders becase of the layout of the pits? you cant hear the abuse from Ritchings because of the PA system i suggest you get your fact correct before you put it out on the forums, Also please use facts and not fiction as you said Perks has gone down in your opinion, and it this only your opinion and what you wanted to see as none of it is fact. Fact 1 no kids in the pits Fact 2 Richings shouts at Perks Fact 3 PA system cancelling out whats being said either way Fact 4 you cant see Ritchings from the Pit shouting and presume it was Perk Fact 5 Perks had no reason to be upset as he had done nothing wrong in his eyes so why shout at anyone. so if you want to twist the truth i think you should get your facts 100% correct

i guess this is what mrs cambelt was talking about shads. 50 shads of tinted specs

The problem is that the crowd your getting for the PL is not enough to maintain with out the loss of money, So when your making improvements to the club but the club does not have enough people to support them thats were the problem is. Its all about crowds bum on seats, Yes Eastbourne are in the NL but if they were not there then Eastbourne would have no speedway. Rye House dont need a NL Team as they know with Coventry and Belle Vue, Kings Lynn, are clubs that run 2 teams lose money. For PL meeting yesterday seems no atmosphere nothing at all. And then to loose in the next meeting that bad really needs some sort of team changes and start again,
