I don't think I've seen any complaints about it. And it's not really to do with money, just a way of helping players get more games. Each round is heavily featured on the BBC Sport page with live updates, commentary etc. Every game is also streamed live for free on YouTube.

They said that about Premier League Football though and we're still waiting for that particular bubble to burst... I won't hold my breath.

This is the sad part about Poland. If they actually worked together, they could basically halve rider's wages overnight and very little would change. The riders would still be earning several times more than anything in Sweden or GB, and the clubs would become far more sustainable. It might even be a good thing for the rest of world speedway. As it is, it seems it's only going one way long term, and the bubble will burst.

Was lucky enough to be at a recording of the new Mastermind series. Clive Myrie ( question master): What can't speedway riders do at Poole Speedway? Contestant: Pass. Clive Myrie: correct.

Equals cost of two bikes & maintenance for a season. Although not a huge amount, good to see at least one promotion making it clear that riders need to earn their income on the track.

That would be conscious Lisa.

I actually thought it threw up some interesting racing. Again it looks better being there to see it live rather than on tv. The control some of those lads had for their experience level was superb. Especially as it’s the first time most of them had riden Foxhall competitively. Thir attitude & willingness to attack the track certainly shows up some of the pro riders attitude.

The only other track I've heard Glasgow fans moan about is Armadale and they've been moaning about it for years win, lose or draw. To be fair many still go to support the team even though they know its not proper speedway

Both stands sold out, I'm buzzing. Arrived early and you should be able to get a seat on the back straight cos it's gonna be mobbed. Hopefully the racing shows everyone how it's done.

The guys who are high 30’s in age must be breathing a sigh of relief that they don’t have to worry about the future of speedway! Speedway in Poland over the next few years will start to decline due to riders rinsing the clubs for money and it’s finally showing that clubs can’t sustain it. I heard one U24 rider wanted 1 million zloty to sign for stal, not naming anyone direct, but stal quickly said this shows the mindset of riders and what they think they can demand, and no the rider in question wasn’t someone worthy of 1 million zloty!

Tai’s story is being sold with SGP not British speedway next year 😉

Is that a serious question lol?

How you including Rushen in the championship level riders? He doesn’t ride in the championship 😆

If there was one league these guys would be the heat leaders 😂!

The meeting was abandoned due to curfew. The pairs race does not officially stand, although Kev on the centre green said Ipswich will recognise the result. Cooper was who most people went tonight to watch let’s be honest and he didn’t disappoint, best moves made by him and best bike control when he almost ended up on the stock car track. To finish 2nd only to a Premiership rider isn’t a bad nights work. I’m sure Mr Louis will have his eye on him. Probably a crowd of 200/300? The back straight stand was almost empty with everyone choosing to stand on bends one and two which is normally underneath the cameras, or in the smaller start line stand, I was there so can’t say how it looked on TV. Ipswich held the best 2025 crowd last week (including Manchester SGP), tonight was more like our equivalent crowd for SoN 😂

If the 2nd "pair" both finished that is

With all this breathtaking speedway will there be anyone conscience to see who wins? 👀🤷‍♀️

In a pairs the one rider left would score 4 points the 2nd pair would get 5 points, yes robbing the fans of one race, but was about 22.10 when the heat ran, Ipswich might have a curfew

Glasgow fans moaning about another track? Well i never. However did the sport cope until the panacea racetrack at Springburn was born? Some of the Tigers -appear to have become the self-appointed protectors of ‘proper speedway’. They need to get over themselves a bit.

Last time I walked past your vehicle at Hi Edge you were trackside with your Brother with a bag of Werthers Originals on the dashboard😉You never wound down the window to offer me one🤔

Maybe that is the way Speedway is going right now, unfortunately.

Awarded before 1 lap completed! Farce! What happened to having to finish 4 laps?

Bear in mind if there was one big league those in the line up tonight would be the 2nd strings and reserves......

Maybe those are the reasons why the county championship gets little to no media coverage these days with only the occasional match shown on Sky Sports these days.

Well done to the riders and in particular Cooper.
