    Brummies 2024...

    I don't thinkbany of these riders are poor signings. I just think the team is structured wrong. That top 2 are good riders. Zach cook is good. Worrall isn't bad either. Brennan is a good young rider too. The lampart gamble is OK. It's just a team with say pawlicki, milik, schlien, Worrall, cook, flint + whatever fits would have more ballance. This just feels like a load of riders chucked together. I hope they do well and hope they draw a crowd though.

    Kings Lynn 2023

    I don't usually look on here or comment. But I see this and have some experience. A few weeks back I tested "non negative" in a multi drug tests at work. It was a saliva based one. 1 substance was inconclusive. I'm clearly not on methadone so we just shrugged it off and carried on in the name of common sense. If it did that for me then there must be loads of false "non negatives" out there for people. It happens. I hope he gets fair trial. Looks a bit lynch mobby on here. Obviously he's under more scrutiny than I was. He's tested negative shortly after in an official place. That's verification enough for me.
  3. Post a heat of speedway off YouTube etc! Doesn't have to be a clasic. Don't give away the result of that race! If we want to know, we'll have to watch it (unless obvious). No more than 1 heat though! Keep it short and sweet! Just an idea to pass the time!

    Speedway Promoter Game?

    If there is any chance of copying speedway promoter 2002 please contact me! Mine corrupted and I've been looking for it for a few years now!

    Will British Speedway Survive ?

    I'd go to speedway if it was on tonight and the lockdown wasn't in force. I'd probably wear gloves, maybe overclothes too. keep a distance where possible. strip overclothes before getting in the car. Sanitize. Shower straight after the meeting. I'm out there working currently as it is and doing most of these things. At the end of the day before I get in my car I do most of these things. It's almost routine now. It's almost normal. With common sense we could do things. There's just a lot of dumb people out there. And those dumb people will mean it will be very unlikely to get back to normal anytime soon. If it's before June I'll be astonished. Just to clarify dumb. I mean people getting within 2 meters. not washing their hands. Paying with cash. Not wearing gloves at petrol pumps. Smoking (but that's a separate issue). Not covering their faces when they cough.

    Speedway Challenge Game PC

    Whilst we are on games. Does anybody have the speedway promoter 2003, (I think) floppy disc. Mine corrupted
  7. I was too young for this didn't know the sport existed until 27 after this! I wasn't born until 12 years after! It's an.outrage and a robery!
  8. I think they should re run the 1973 world final?!
  9. That crowd. Blimey!

    Corona virus

    It's not sustainable financially but delaying it enough will allow more people to be treated because more beds and nebulisers will be freed up. Less people will needlessly die and medical scientists will have longer to work out the best medicines to treat the symptoms. People have to continue getting this but it needs to be controlled like a tap. It sucks though because we will all be paying the financial burden of this for generations.
  11. As a milky we are beavering away. I act as if I'm already infected if that makes sense. I've been wearing gloves and changing them regularly (not don't this before) Washing hands where possible. Moving fast and keeping my distance. No talking to people. If I could get a mask I'd use 1 for the protection of others just in case. But somebody probably had 500 in a cupboard earmarked for ebay. In a few weeks time there will be mass casualties and people we may know dying without a goodbye and without a funeral. There will be TV helicopters following the convoys of dead body's as the country mourns. That's not scare mongering. It's very real. So I guess I've come to terms with.that in my own head. I'm at peace with the situation. Maybe we all could take that into consideration. That's your mum's, sisters, wives and possibly kids. Hopefully not though but realise it could be. I've made sure if stocks are low my vunerable customers get first dibs. It's not about keeping ourselves safe. Forget about us. It's about not passing anything we may not know we have to healthy or sick people. It's like I'm working in isolation. We should all be considering this .... and if your not there is no reasoning to it. You would be a massive C word
  12. Yes. This 1 last meeting before the forthcoming doom! I really hope it's on.

    When was the Erik Riss chat. Last night or next week. I'm a bit behind on speedway news

    I'm glad actually if it is him because he's enthusiastic in his posts and is clearly a fan. He hasn't been sucked into the negaativity vortex that alot of the people who post on here have! Well done on building your business from nothing! And well done stars for attracting a loyal supporter as a sponsor.

    Slicker track should mean much better racing if that international was anything to go by. That was a thoroughly entertaining meeting!

    Ipswich 2020

    I think crump will average 6+. There are clearly a lack of riders wanting to ride in the UK. Given some time he will find his feet. It's an interesting signing but enjoy it! This is one of those signings where nobody knows what to expect. And thats the excitement of it.

    Wasn't much publicity for this. Im a bit behind with my speedway star but didn't realise it was on. Else I would have gone.

    Gets tedious though. It was strung out long enough. This team is alright! I'm glad cook and Lambert are in. And riss. The rest all have a point to prove and that's never a bad thing. They should have announced it at a gathering told some anecdotes. Got all the current fans buzzing. Drip feeding it isn't really looking after the current fans. This sport won't be packed with fans ever again so look after the ones that are there. Give us a night out with names being announced. It's personable. Reading it on news sights doesn't really do that for me. But that's just my opinion on it.

    Doesn't need to be a world great. A nice consistent rider who enjoys riding in Britain will do. On the height thing. Dobrucki was a very tall rider and whilst no elite world beater I believe he was a rider very much respected in Poland. If we find a rider who ends up being a 3rd heat leader dependable 6/7 points home and away kind of guy it isn't a bad thing. Now considering what Kasper could do in some of his away meetings. A slicker home track may make him into a very useful rider for us. I want him to be our number 7.

    I very much warmed to thj when he rode for us before. Mad as a box of frogs on track but very gentlemanly off it. Full of effort and such a shocking style! Please please please!
