I simply pointed out that great racing doesn't seem to produce great crowds, strange as that may be.

Which fact, if linked to the success of the NSS in attracting decent crowds - on any night inc Monday, perhaps indicates the even more pessimistic possibility that speedway racing in the UK now excites a tiny proportion of those willing to pay to see live sport.

Peter Kildemand returns replacing Tobi for 28 days.

Hmmm, Rosco has said a perm replacement for tobi, didn’t Kildemand say that’s he’s not interested in British speedway this season....As well as this I can’t see Kildemand sending bikes over for 28 days, too expensive!

Who is arguing whether star riders make good racing or not?

Scunny and Somerset back that up. Two great race tracks that don't pull in the punters. If the sport was force fed to the public by the media like football, it might have a chance. The vast majority of people have never heard of speedway.

Not only that, he may be free tomorrow but can't imagine he is free for many if any other Thursdays as he will be racing in Sweden.

It's never been any different.

So David Bellego is back. This now leaves approx 4.9 for Zach's replacement. Get that right & Rasser will drop to reserve. Would make us strong!!!

Is that 4.9 Premier league or Championship where we will be looking?.

Think we can go up to about 7.2 from the CL so Aarnio could be a good shout.

4.9 premier league. Plenty of scope to get the right rider in. Imagine Rasser being at reserve for a month. Would be carnage.
