Musielak heat 7 win was instantly forgettable. He disappeared as Tungate struggled to pass Castagna despite being handed the outside line on turns 3&4. Rew 9+2 is double figures from 5 rides.... 9 is not two digits. That's how many points he scored for the team. 3 points are absolutely assured because Jeppeson is not finishing in front of anyone at PB.

A Polish commentator was sacked for saying “this isn’t the type of speedway we come to watch” years back when it was a boring match.

Commentators on Sky Sports and TNT are not allowed to be negative about the meeting, game fixture they are commentating on. Devalues the product to advertisers - Ben Foster mentioned it in one of his podcasts / you tube when he was at Watford and the game was dull as. He spun a question to the interviewer on the game and they replied "you know I cant answer that ... "

Then they shouldn't have announced it was a mutual decision. They did exactly that, so it's fair to ridicule their team building!

First thought when I saw the scores, brilliant decision to retain Hagon over Edwards. Even Sudden Sam wouldn't have done that lol!

Wouldn’t disagree with that, I was just defending Stead not using Jack Holder in the race.

I have every confidence if he can get himself on the highline then this Berwick team can write themselves into Bandits folklore by not finishing bottom 2. In Stu we trust.

I think Pickering was fine but surely you'd swap Kerr for Sedgman too. Kerr had been poor all night whereas at least Sedgman looked competitive.

Stead was always going to use the Holders in heat 15. So putting one of them in heat 14 would mean riding in three consecutive races. Pickering was more than capable of winning heat 14 (but didn’t), so I can’t see how Stead could be criticised.

Well Scotty just summed up the reason for me that crowds are dropping, ' all the past meetings are irrelevant, it's down to play offs" even worse the team that finishes top can't even pick opponents. Whats the point of finishing top. Absolutely ridiculous

Yes, that was the one that was called off by their nurse wasn't it 😂

Updates has Musielak on 2 wins. Rew scored double figures, paid 12 points, what more do you expect? The expected result. Oxford are awful but Brummies are beyond woeful. It was billed as the battle to avoid bottom spot. Brummies had secured that spot before that match.

When was this?

So your saying ripping open the starts when rain is due is the same as Belle Vue having to deal with a completely saturated track ?! 2 completely different reasons for poor track conditions, only one of which was individual fault. But then again no doubt your legal expertise will make you a track expert as well.

Seriously?

He did say holes in his Interview though.🤔

And I have been to the NSS at Easter and the meeting was delayed for longer because the track was a shambles. They bladed all the surface to the outside & piled it up against the airfence. Or maybe both tracks got heavy rain st the wrong time but you obviously know better using your one eye to get a balanced view.

Four hard chargers

You always knew tonight was going to happen, with Edward’s having a good meeting and Hagon not scoring a point

ONE really good race all night in the last race after 14 heats of a processional yawnfest and Tatum spouts on about a "superb night of speedway and a great advert for Premiership speedway"!!....the man needs sectioning!

But what if the rider had a choice of Birmingham or Ipswich, who would you choose ?.

Bad management from Stead …. Jack Holder for Kerr was the obvious choice or worse case Holder for Kerr and Sedgman for Flint

Yep, Edwards showed why that decision was foolish tonight. Was an Ok meeting until the interval track grading when they decided the outside line on bends 3&4 was no longer necessary.... I guess it had mostly been Spires using it to pass Brummies. Janowski was in a different class and was reasonably backed up by all but Thomson. Musielak only won one race, Zagar tailed off after 3 good rides, Rew & Castagna did Ok... About what Id expect from Castagna,Rew should be doing more.

Great heat 15 ruined because the camera has the same zoom on it required to see craters on the moon. TNT = tinpot.

Not wanting to tempt fate but have they finally dropped the hashtag nonsense, or has it passed me by? Yep, it had passed me by, questions for Scoddy now. At last, a proper race from the top drawer.
