  1. Past hour
  2. Remember when that one guy came into your work telling you about a new pyramid scheme and we all put money in and it in reality turned out to be a scam, this speedway futures Ltd is giving off the same vibes at the moment
  3. If anyone fancies enjoying a slice of 'King's Lynn', Nicolai Klindt, Niels-Kristian Iversen and Mads Korneliussen will be sharing tales from their friendship and time with the Stars at The Rathskeller on Saturday March 14th. Nicolai has organised the event to kickstart his testimonial weekend. Tickets start at £15 and food (hog roast) is available, as are VIP packages. Would be great to see some of you there: https://sportingknights.co.uk/events/
  4. So.... Basically, promoters thought that an authentic and relevant league, that had some resonance, and ran during the warmer months, would negatively impact their unauthentic, and largely irrelevant league, with minimal, if any, resonance, (that they would still run), using the colder months too?... In summary... "This product would deliver what many fans want, and would engage them to attend, but then they wouldn't turn up to watch the usual contrived stuff we cobble together each season".. They probably wouldn't be wrong would they?
  5. So with no winter income the 4/5/6 premiership are stumping up the £??,??? wages ? But listening to rob Godfrey he seemed to give the impression Phil was working for speedway futures Ltd ? Who unless have sponsors stumping up the cash also have no income
  6. Jenkins should be alright,Northampton will be looking for riders will they not.🤔👍
  7. From the Kings Lynn NL section but..... If a rider in the championship has missed a season or more in the NDL, but has had a NDL average within the last 5 seasons, then they go back into the NDL on their last NDL average, UNLESS when their current Championship average is doubled and it’s higher than that last NDL average, within the last 5 seasons, then that rider will return to the NDL on the higher of the 2 averages. Jake Mulford’s current championship average when doubled is lower than his last NDL average in 2024, hence why Jake is on an 8.67 average in the NDL in 2026. Would make sense if similar rules were applied between CL & PL but we all know that sense and speedway rarely go hand in hand
  8. Could make sense... Maybe 'The Mad Hatter' has been involved?....
  9. Would go a long way to explaining the amount of sh!t about at the moment
  10. Today
  11. Dummy found and firmly in place so can't speak 😜
  12. No update on Fraser, so guess he is 100% fit and will start in just over 4 weeks for us.
  13. Not ideal, but with planning theres more or less a 3 week window from 21st september due to the 2 week international break. Fit the SF and Final in that window, using track covers etc if required, maybe even swap legs around say its BV vs KL forecast is poor at KL so 1st leg moved to BV as its bathed in sunshine.
  14. I'm in Llandudno this week and have noticed there's an Alice in Wonderland trail around the town. Was the AGM held here in January, if so could explain a lot😄
  15. Must be the 4(or 5 or 6) Premiership promoters as he's only CEO of the Premiership!!
  16. They stopped this test 2 years ago, now they hold out a fifty pound note and which hand snatches it first is the predominant hand.
  17. Whatever is going on, is not good. Probably the usual they want new teams in the league, but they want to constrict them. It's no wonder the sport is dying.
  18. It may well be for a few, they no longer care about the outcome and for many any residual goodwill has long left the stadia.
  19. Last time I went to a football match was when Alan Gilzean was at Tottenham and friend dragged me along so the answer is not recently.
  20. Are any of fhe riders mentioned left handed? I think there may be a sub reg which allows a further reduction in averages of left handed riders... Just as long as they can a) prove they are left handed and b) prove it by the end of February.. All that needs to happen is for a BSP Official to hand the rider a pen and see how he writes with it... Mickey Mouse has just looked at his BSP watch that he got for Christmas off Minnie, and confirmed officially that today is the 26th of February, so still time left...
  21. Today’s Speedway Star from Jenkins.. ”There was a lot of talk of me being with Ipswich again, and I spoke briefly with their new promotion, but it seems a change in the rules has put a stop to me having a low enough average for them to fit me in” Thats interesting for a couple of reasons. Firstly, if the six is who I was reliably told (Brennan, Lawson, King, Musielak, Nicholls, Edwards RS), then Jenkins DOES still fit as the seventh rider on his GSA with normal British reduction. I assume the rule he’s hinting at is the 25% rule 🤷🏼‍♂️ if that’s what he means, then it hasn’t been a change in the rules at all as someone pulled up that rule about him not getting that reduction twice a few weeks ago. Maybe he’s referring to something else? Anyway, bottom line is he’s not in the team. Secondly, that reaffirms that Louis has had nothing to do with building this team and the new owners already have their feet under the table. Edit: Unless the average used for Nicholls is his Premiership average of 5.55, and not his converted Championship average of 5.39? In which case would leave 4.44, with Jenkins on 4.49. Could also explain the rumoured no go for Thorssell even on 4.5 as he wouldn’t fit either.. I’m not sure that’s the case though. Pretty sure the average used would be a Championship converted average, and not an established Premiership one. The most current average is used and Scott’s Premiership average is from 2024. Jeppesen on the other hand, has a current 2025 average in both Premiership and Championship, so I’m guessing they’d use his current Premiership average? Which would mean he just about fits. If it’s his converted Championship average then he’s way over and wouldn’t fit either.
  22. you been to a football match recently? I think BSN are great and offer a really decent product - i'd say (with a few caveats) they are better than the TNT product of last season. One of the reasons I like to use BSN is I have no club to properly follow as mine closed and I like to watch say Belle Vue v Leicester as a neutral. That said Leicesters streaming service is always very good also (I feel)!
  23. I think he's sponsored by Thames Water.
  24. Yesterday
  25. Who is actually paying Phil morris ? He isn’t on the bspl board as he not a promoter and he not listed as a director on speedway futures Ltd, so who exactly is he working for ?
  26. If Phil Morris is involved , it has probably been over watered.
