Oops... this was meant to be Brummies v Lions thread, forgot to edit topic fulu after copying title of other thread.. Sorry! Been away for weekend so first time I've had chance to look at forum.

Track looking well watered at the moment. Haven't been to midday BHM fixture for a while, looking very busy. Bad timing for the roadworks on Kirkmanshulme Lane! Hope no problems getting here for Bewley & Kurtz after late meeting in Poland last night.

blue sky's apart from the geoengineering. 🤣😎

Yes he will be helping greatly by giving him a wide berth on and off the track

so it should go to him being called a cheat is not a good thing to do, so he should get the financial benefit.

Hope the knob stays back in Australia

For anyone interested the following in Poland this morning: After the game, it was reported that Wtókniarz decided to protest Anders Thomsen's engine, on which he achieved this impressive result. In addition, the carburetter from the Vaculik motorcycle was also reported for inspection. Wtókniarz had to pay a total amount of 17 thousand zlotys for filing a protest, which, as it turned out, were thrown into the proverbial mud, because everything was fine with the Thomsen engine and Vaculik carburetter and Wtókniarz's protests were rejected. Interestingly and ironically at the same time, a large part of the deposit paid for the protest against Andersen Thomsen's engine will go to the Dane's bank account. - They checked what was with my engine. They thought I was cheating that my engine was too big. They opened it, they started checking. I thought it was even smaller. And so it was indeed. 500cc power is allowed, and I had about 495. It seems to me that no one in PGE Ekstraliga is cheating. The money stays with me. - the Dane commented on the situation

Ian Thomas was a top promoter of speedway. And presentation was a strong point of his. I'll always recall the 1970 season when packed crowds at Derwent Park saw and heard the Comets (and away 7) march from the pits to starting area with the track staff to the Radetzky March by Strauss...that tune is still my fave classical piece. The sometimes downside was when you only counted 6 Comets - Ian would explain Bob took a fall last night, at Sheffield, so R/R will operate (naff to hear this about Bob Valentine). Although sometimes riders had just arrived and missed the aforementioned march however made their heats. But most certainly great days to live on in the memory bank. UTC.

I would assume in Poland everything is checked multiple times and the seriousness of the sport and the money at stake nobody would take that risk, I did also suspect it was a move by Częstochowa to move the barrier I’ve of them not doing as well as they should into Stal.

Not really a surprise.Doyle was as fast when he was on the outside line.👌

As szkocjasid has said it's due to lack of Volunteers basically the updates team has got less and less over the years there used to be 10+ of us now really it's down to me and Lauren but after doing it for 20 years I've recently decided to step back because i feel I've done my time and getting no help from elsewhere I've had enough. In all honesty I'd be very surprised if there was a speedway updates site in 2026. If you ever want to see the scores though 90% of meetings are now covered by the BSN stats website also

Bank holiday Monday meetings were always packed Rayleigh with speedway in the morning and Stock cars in the afternoon where Chick Woodroff was the promoter. One particular speedway meeting always sticks and it was Rayleigh versus Boston. I cannot remember which race but the Boston heat leader Arthur Price was out and Rayleigh had one Ivan Miller who I believe started off on grass track. On the final lap Miller who had come from the back passed Price to win. Price was not a happy chap. Some of the best meetings involved the local derbies with the likes of Romford, Crayford, Canterbury Eastbourne and Ipswich. Packed stadia and leaping uncle Len and terrific rivalry and atmosphere.

Very sunny, complete blue sky today. Will be 24 degrees by start time. Racing is usually better when its drier and slicker but they will have to dump a lot of water on it during meeting to keep dust down and that will affect it. For those who can't make it BVTV.live - Belle Vue Speedway Live Streaming is the live stream very good quality.

Hope Charles Wright will be helping out.

I don't think he can cope with the pressure of being a number one he seems okay if he sits below someone like Jack Holder, Woffy or Fricke.

If Tolley continues somewhere else he should do it at Championship level to stem losses, try and get Rosco in as team manager and ideally find an experienced co-promoter. His heart is clearly in the right place but he needs a competent team around him.

Brilliant times I can remember heading down to Foxhole one bank hol mon afternoon early nineties for the derby was over five thousand their.

i think him and Kurtz lost it for them with their last places.

September averages: Lawson 9.83 Rowe 7.57 Cook 7.34 Kerr 6.94 Thomsen 4.81 Starke 4.13 Cairns 3.91 TOTAL 44.53

The Good Friday double header was always was always my favourite day to look forward to in the fixture list. my first away derby meeting was in 1986 and Michael Lee was making yet another comeback. Witches won 50-28. Happy days

I think what I said was that I hoped to get to Workington at some point in the future. I certainly did NOT say I get my fix at Workington. But feel free to put up the post where I say I go to Workington. I doubt very much you will find it though 'cos I never said it. Tell you what, I'll save you the bother My actual quote That's total rubbish. Very few of my just over 5,000 posts have been "moaning" about Berwick or "Mr. Barrie". My "observations" are not all negative about Berwick. Re-read my previous post where I praise previous and the current promotions. The only thing you are correct about is I go to Redcar by choice. That's my personal choice. And when I get the chance, I will head across to the West Coast to go to a Workington meeting.
