How can they watch both? Do they all have eyes like Marty Feldman in Oxford?

Yes to the above, but he is nowhere near the standard required to replace Cook, anyone with a knowledge of speedway will tell you that. You've replaced a number one with a 2nd/3rd heatleader at best

At least Kemp won't just turn up when he feels like it.

With Glasgow being Scottish, I'd think they would be very reluctant to get this meeting rearranged, fixtures probably in place before the world cup draw took place

Kemp away to Workington

Last year kemp had some good scores for Berwick, knows all the tracks and will be wanting to make an impression and earn some money, as has been travelling to Latvia/Poland to sit in the pits and not riding

Replacing a rider of Craig Cooks calibre with Drew Kemp. Oh dear, season is a right off

Hasn't been getting a team place recently at that Latvian club ( dagapulas ? ) which ride in the polish league

Yes,but sits in the pits and doesn’t get a ride sometimes.He’s not the only Brit in that situation though, must pay.!!

It's clearly been declining for a while but it's still mad that the likes of Simon Lambert and Kyle Newman are within the top 24 British riders (no offence to either). Also disappointing that Lambert has seemingly not bothered, I thought he'd at least attempt to retain his title. Let's be honest, he'd probably win riding backwards if Bewley doesn't turn up. I assume the wild cards are there to try and tempt Lambert/Woffinden over late in the day? Still, on the plus side it'll probably be a very tight meeting.

Is the Champion defending his title?

Does he do poland at weekends?

Hopefully Charles is back by then

It's quite easy to recognize. If it's a "profile", so when you can add the page as a "friend", then it's 99% fake. These kind of profiles are mostly hacked and then renamed to "FIM Europe" for example. That way they have a base already with friends etc. All riders, organizations, federations etc have "Pages" which you can only follow and not add as a "friend". That fake FIM Europe page has been taken down now I see.

The odds for a Tigers/Croatia double must be sky high. Tigers lucky to hit 30.

Kemp in to replace

Ridiculous decision to run a meeting tonight, think you are spot on with the small gathering analogy. Meeting should never have been allocated to run this day.

Just looking back to 2005 onwards on the BSPL site, Ipswich have not had big hitters like Jason & Emil circa 2023. How has the feeling that you have big hitters sunk in after only a few seasons and why has the attendance dropped when it reportedly remains strong (strongest in the country according to some). During this time span the witches spent many seasons in the second division. Is it now a case of big hitters or nothing and why can’t you get back to supporting teams assembled in the way you are normally associated with?

The really sad bit is that, when he actually rides he is still very, very good. There is no decline in his on-track skill-set. But just goes AWOL far too often.

Fake as well- too many toe-rags around !! Follow what’s put on this forum by myself and Stewmac regarding TV/ streams and PPV and you won’t go far wrong.

Clueless as usual.

Does it matter? It'll be slick whatever.

The issue is while not everyone likes football many many speedway fans do and most will choose one or the other When even losing 10% of your crowd can make for a catastrophic night for most clubs then running against the football is financial suicide for the night, add in the fact that the match is on BSN so people can watch the speedway after the football should they decide to stay home and this seems like horrific planning albeit I can see why Glasgow wouldn’t want to rearrange giving it must be a rare Wednesday that KJP is available

Deanno is the kind of guy that the powers that be should be listening to, but i suspect he says it as it is, something the BSPL frowns upon as they prefer to be the secret society rather than what they should be which is the Promoters of this sport which has been allowed to run down for as long as i can remember.

Certainly in the best interests of Workington Speedway.Cant see many Clubs wanting him these days,unfortunately because is still a class act on the bike.Let down too many Clubs in the last few seasons.
