Didn't someone get in trouble recently for using that system?

It doesnt take me that long cycling, you can take the tram too

Ipswich were the best team on Paper last year, but injures cost them, but its cost a lot of teams over the years. The year before Belle Vue were the best team, if Charles wright would have been fit for the play offs Ipswich wouldn't have been in the final.

hopefully some good races, hope Brummies put up more of a fight this time, the meeting 6 weeks ago was a long night.

Quite. If the Witches face the Aces in the semi I can see them being beaten over two legs - past performance is no guarantee of future return!

Apologies if this is already on here but I’ve just registered my support for this via https://development.wiltshire.gov.uk/pr/s/planning-application/a0iQ300000FdUf7IAF/pl202506229?tabset-8903c=3 It can only help.

I don't think they deliberately not score point's as it's their living.

Agree entirely. Watched him on a few occasions on BSN and has a very tidy style. Not afraid to go up to the fence either. Hopefully, could go far.

Altrincham Town Centre to Manchester City Centre is around 20 to 25 mins in a car depending on time of day... M56, A34 being the quickest when I used to make the journey.. Although via Sale or the Princess Parkway also used to get me in to Piccadilly easily within 30 mins... Both very easy straight runs... Google has Altrincham to Gorton in 25 mins via M56, M60 but "cutting through" via A34 or A6, is even quicker... Simon Calder to play me....

I'd be surprised if he rides next year.

you cant ever achieve with heeps as a heat leader, hes just not good enough .

It gives me no pleasure to say this but even without all the injuries and the missing riders, Oxford should still have made the playoffs,but for very poor tactical decisions made by the management. Just as has happened in the past it won’t be long before fans start dropping off and the goodwill will all but evaporate.

Good effort by Workington, just missed out on the bonus point , we have a rest now before the big home test against Glasgow tigers. Hope Vinnie is ok, possible broken hand ?

First of all, if you took the trouble to read some of my previous posts about the Plymouth "team", you'll see that I have given them praise. I totally understand why Plymouth fielded such a team because they've been ravaged by injury and they've let their Number 1 completely shaft them. This is not about Plymouth though, don't try and convince me that a "team" of 2 Plymouth riders should be taken seriously in a so called professional team Sport, it was only fit for a Best Pairs event. If they want to run the meeting, fine, great, get a big crowd in on a Saturday night, I'm happy for them... there's no way on this earth any league points gained by such a team, whoever they may be, should be added to their league tally, the points should have been forfeited before a wheel was turned. As the guest system is a necessity to run Speedway in the UK, I think 3 guests should be the limit for any team (and even that's not desirable), meaning at least the majority (3 riders + R/R) is riding for the named "team" in an event.

Everyone bar you on this forum will understand why Plymouth fielded such a team! Maybe they should have waited till next year to stage the meeting when all the riders are fit and available, would that suit you?

I mean the amount of time people keep bringing the issue of it being russia but nobody dares to speak of the issues that Ukraine bring is laughable. Media loves to make everything about Russia but if you actually see the drama Ukraine have brought and more shockingly how disgusting their people treat Poland as a country when they were given free housing, food, cars etc but still attack Polish people, attack Polish traditional, break Polish transport and hold signs at concerts saying “death to poles” but nobody moans when Ukraine are allowed into the speedway World Cup? Media agenda and targeting is a joke, politics in sport and as a whole is a joke, English people moan about these migrates but still think Ukraine is treated unfair. Nobody has been shown on English TV the city that is ‘war stricken’ in Ukraine but has now rebuild a brand new super night club with the funding from European money? Google Ibiza club Ukraine and see how fearful they really are this club was on its last legs but then had money from the war poured into it and renovated, it’s all on Polish news but you don’t see any of it in England, and be reminded that their president has bought two houses, one in Caribbean and one in Europe with your tax money.

To be fair he won heat 13?

Not sure what's more predictable, you dissing Plymouth or Gavan moaning about Belle Vue lol

Chance for the Aces middle order and reserves to score a few points for a change. 60-30

All these people with their gushing praise at Plymouth do realise that "Plymouth" only tracked 2 of their own riders on Saturday night don't they 🤷‍♂️ Yes, great, they seem to be doing something right in getting some crowd's in and they must be applauded for that, but don't kid yourselves that you're watching a Plymouth team.

Okay thats interesting.

A bit harsh on Cook, while his away form has been poor he's been good at the NSS. Hope Zagar has a good night, could be his last visit to NSS.

Manchester City Centre to Altrincham is more like 45 mins than 10!
