    Eastbourne 2015

    Owen nailed on
  2. If only the meeting a few weeks ago had started at the advertised time instead of the tractor racing, parade, more watering.
  3. Great win for the Eagles. Happy for Kelsey Dugard with his vital win in heat 14. Hope Cat in Hat could saw the celebration. Kelseywas smiling and punching the air as he came over the line. Home straight loved it. Onwards to the big showdown at Perry Bar.
  4. All rather dribbled away at Lakeside. Dreadful season on track totally overshadowed by the threat to existence. Sad way to go, if that is what it turns out to be.
  5. Yes 7.30pm start time confirmed on Eastbourne website, social media
  6. Looks like the news about Andrews is unconfirmed. Not on FB and nor in press release

    Eastbourne 2015

    I'm not sure that is totally nailed on from what I have seen on social media this afternoon
  8. Georgie ran out on to the track at Kent when Kelsey came down. Bit of a hobbling run but he ran

    Eastbourne 2015

    To be fair we have not had a lot to get excitable about in recent years. In the EL it was the league or nothing; especially if you didn't make the play offs (well the final, to be honest). NL has league, Trophy, KO cup and Gold Cup - so plenty of competitions for clubs to have a pitch at and have a chance of success.
  10. It's this best interests of speedway thing. Totally daft, of course, but that's speedway for you----make it up as you go along; create special cases etc

    Time For Another Rule Change ?

    They seem to manage successfully abroad. Why cant the UK. As I read in another thread, the junior riders do not ride against seniors in the German league.
  12. What Len Silver says sums up a malaise in British speedway. He want the MC to make it up as they go along. Eastbourne have acted within the rules. If Spiller had failed to score, one imagines Len would have been silent. Silver has a great record in speedway but his time is up. He needs to move aside.
  13. All clear now why the Eagles have been quiet over the team for Rye House. Been a bit of a do over Spiller. All OK now. www.eastbourneeagles.co is where you can read the story
  14. Will give this one a miss. Thunderstorms on the way-wouldn't take much to shift them towards East Anglia. Not risking my money for another Leicester visit.

    See a Worrall is using his Twitter account to have a "dig". That will be the Worrall from the moanie Worrall family then; if the Speedway Star two-pager is anything to go by.

    Go Eagles- chase down those Brummies

    Martin Dugard promised during the winter at the fans' forum that he would not be afraid to change the team to bring success. He is true to his word. Didn't he race for a time with the words "losing hurts" on the back of his leathers - a not very subtle message to his opponents. Think the NL is beginning to understand that the Eagles' talons are bared.

    Eastbourne 2015

    Wow. Daniel Spiller has joined Eastbourne. Didn't see that one coming. Story is on their website. Just seen it. http://eastbourneeagles.co/news.php?extend.825
  19. I think Eastbourne seriously need to think about moving to a Saturday night or even Friday night. We have had some lovely hot, sunny afternoons and it does seem immpossible to get the track right. As a result, the meetings are taking far too long. People were leaving the stadium from very early (in terms of races completed) yesterday. We will have to fulfil the remaining fixtures, as advertised, I would imagine - but for the KO Cup and NT finals, lets get back to racing under lights.
  20. Marc was ill throughout the meeting. He could easily with justification sat this one out. He didn't and every Eastbourne fan should be thankful for that. Buxton took advantage of some poor riding early on by the Eagles. The home side were far too tentative but once they got it together, they were unstoppable. Bit of thinking to do for Martin and Connor in the days ahead. It does seem as if the league maybe gone but the cups are within touching distance. Quite what they can do is beyond me but they have proved time and again this year that they are top of the game. In safe hands, I would say.

    Go Niall and it is said Neil, so our presenter is right. Here's your chance. As has been said, keep your head - those in front (if they are) are likely to make mistakes. 5 points is achievable but remember the race is 4 laps.

    Kings Lynn Vs Eastbourne 7/8/15

    Not very good at understanding weather forecasts.

    Kings Lynn Vs Eastbourne 7/8/15

    King's Lynn will call it off
  24. You cannot compromise safety
  25. If King's Lynn had started at the advertised time of 7.30, none of this discussion would have been necessary. Parade at 7.40 with tractor still at work. First race was at nearly five minutes to eight.
