Yet, when a track is in danger of being sold off or left to rot, not a councillor to be seen 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Place will shut down anyway if they continue to abide by silly rules. Most of the people that enter Speedway / Dog track stadium are mostly older members of the public who've been vaccinated twice. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Surely young riders racing as much as they can van only be a good thing and fixture clashes could be worked round. To stop the select group hogging all the places and opportunities. Flint was there to be signed as a Prem rising star at the start but nobody wanted to know and Wolves went for the old hand who didn't work out. For once it would be nice if the rules were adhered to rather than changed when it suits. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Why name a single replacement when the rules would now allow a horses for courses guest for the rest of the season..... 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just like signing the No1 averaged rider in the league.... Effectively you get access to every other rider as and when you need them... No1 rider gets injured? Or you agree to a fixture knowing he is away on FIM duty that night? No problem just choose the best rider that rides each track the best from every team apart from the one you are racing against (even UK speedway wouldn't allow you to use a rider from that nights opponents).... The saying "you couldn't make this up could you?" certainly doesn't fit for Speedway in the UK... They make it up pretty regularly... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

greenheathen 1 Posted June 14, 2021 (edited) Tonights comment by Rory Schlein implies Wolves are going to suspend racing for a while. Pete Adams also said that they would need to have a think about things after todays announcement. Edited June 14, 2021 by greenheathen 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebrum 6,821 Posted June 14, 2021 It’s obvious Wolves and no doubt the speedway league will halt league racing after that pathetic attempt to justify why restrictions should be extended a month. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's not pathetic Steve, let's be real here. There has to be control or a very likely 3rd wave. This current situation is far better than a total lockdown yet again. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
