Yes as a business if it means improving your team and getting fans through the gate. At Newcastle Stevie was rider of the year 3 times in succession so when he became available it was a no brainier to fit him in. Can you imagine if we had stuck with Victor and he was only scoring 5s n 6s at meetings and Stevie had signed for someone else ( which he would of done) and was knocking in maximums or double figures every meeting .. The fans would of had every right to have had a go at the management and rightly so

I wasn’t complaining I was just stating a fact ... And yes the issue is a fantastic read

Which in past years used to get you 128 pages in the season preview issue

And only 96 pages this year

WARNING !!! If your reading the updates on demand or a few days later the vote will be closed so if you vote it will not count but you may still be charged

Wonder if Steve Worrall and Simon Lambert will be there as both had already signed up for Sheffield’s Anniversary meeting on the same afternoon before signing for Newcastle

Surprised at today’s events as after following Newcastle for 40 years I have always found them to be a fair club and they have always had good reason for getting rid of riders... I think there could be more to this story so I am waiting for an official announcement from the club before saying what I think

Also there is a 2 page spread on Bickley with his sponsors on page 32 and 33 with Bickley talking about signing for Glasgow ... After getting the Star for over 40 years even I know they don’t do articles like that in 3 days .. The Stars articles like that are planned weeks in advance not published within days

Reading this weeks speedway star on page 2 it says Joe Lawlor was told on Friday morning after Peter Facenna arrived at the hotel he was being sacked, yet on page 6 Kyle Bickley says he had his job at Glasgow just before 2am on the same day.. So Glasgow signed Bickley before sacking Lawlor!!

Just read the article myself and I think it’s a load of crap... Being going to speedway 40 years and I think it should be all about skill not who is the fastest... I think Formula 1 Grand Prix is like watching paint dry.. Hopefully speedway Grand Prix wont be going the same way

Yes and No!! As he only finished 4th when only the top 3 went through from the qualifier. Was only when Dudek finished in last years top 8 did Cook gain his place

No wonder your a fan and not a team manager!!! I can see Neil Middleditch in the pits geeing his riders up in the pits saying “ Come on lads 12 heats to go lets do this for Brady” You would be “That’s it lads the tie is over you have started off sh*t and now it’s only going to get worse Have a great winter might see you next year”

Totally agree as she would of been embarrassed and would of had to put up with a lot when people found out she was now called Mrs Shovlar ..... (only joking )

I bet if we had to win tonight to win the league or it had of been the cup final where we had a 10 point lead he would of been there or am I being a cynic

Totally agree I have been on this forum for about 14 years and the amount of sh*t he has put on here is unbelievable.. Though my biggest problem has always been when he posts something and I have put a genuine reply and ask him for a sensible answer to his post and nearly 100% of the time he ignores the post and spouts more crap to get a bite ..
