Had they put those two fixtures on the same day with a few hours between people have been able to attend both.

Yes cant see it weakens Glasgow and I am sure they wouldnt have accepted the date if they thought couldnt get good guests. Klindt rides with Harris at Kings Lynn so that should help.

52-38 58 - 34 67 - 23 Three convincing home wins at Foxhall over the Aces. Most would be surprised if any different on Thurs. The Aces have struggled for points at reserve and can see the Witches making the most of the Aces struggles away from the NSS. Perhaps with adverse weather it may the home track advantage minimal but can only see a home win by10+

Personally think Dans form has dropped a little lately but take your point.

11 from 4 rides a fortnight ago from Thompson dispelling the remark.

Dan has ridden 14 heats at Armadale this season and has 12 wins/paid wins and 2 second places good for a 11.43cma so while it may not weaken Glasgow depending on what Nicolai does there is no guest who strengthens them in regards Dan as even if Nicolai goes through the card, Dan may well have done the same. Wood is a definite upgrade on Perry I’d say and as for Lambert/Nagal who knows as Nagal may have scored ten or none as an Armadale debutant

I thought it was exactly what he meant, making the track to suit the home riders although Ellis would not want it too rough, apparently still carrying a injury.

You moved about a bit, East Cheam to Edinburgh!!

With Nick Morris having been down to guest on Sunday for Redcar v Poole, Workington v Berwick now have a rearranged match on Sunday afternoon. Have Redcar got a fresh guest in for Sunday or taking a gamble that Morris could still make it for the evening meeting 🤷‍♂️

I would think Klindt is an improvement on Dan Thomson, far better suited to Edinburgh.

Thanks. Would not want it for speedway GB. Don't want any less races, still remember the old days with around 21 races including second half. I don't suppose admission prices would be adjusted to reflect the reduction in races or riders. Presume there would be no rider replacement, with only five riders. Could be an issue if any rider had to withdraw early due to injury.

Indeed, Jacob Hook scored 13 for Workington at reserve then 0 guesting for Glasgow at 2 the very next week last month.

That was at reserve, bit more difficult at 2.

Looking forward to watching thus with my BSN pass.

Well take 3 for this meeting on Sunday, but unfortunately looking at the weather predictions a named storm could be due on Sunday 😗 so another call off more than possible. unfortunately, all this nice summer weather with fixture gaps, now the last meeting, looks like it does not want to take place

Based on one off the cuff comment by Doyle on Monday evening. Pretty sure thats not exactly what he meant.

This forecast for tomorrow looks OK. https://www.xcweather.co.uk/forecast/Ip4_5ll

How many belle vue tee shirts,scarfs and hoodies etc did the belle vue track shop sell Monday night or any race night for that matter ? Something I witnessed last week at zielona gora and gorzow was just how many fans brought the merch from the club stores, there were que’s out the doors, team shirts and scarfs were sold in huge quantities generating substantial income for the clubs and it seemed no matter what you wanted they had it with their logo on it

Talk of Ipswich making the track rough, hope it doesn't turn into a farce where riders struggling to turn. Maybe hoping it could affect some Ipswich riders.

Squads are cut to 2 riders and a reserve in each team next week.

And this was the forecast rain radar at 12:00 yesterday when the decision was made

Just hope Brady and Dan get through it unscathed. As professionals they’ll definitely give their all on the night but they’ve been there done it with this competition. Let another dog have its day . Just get to Saturday’s massive meeting safe.

Doesn’t weaken them at all, Klindt is just as good as Thompson, Wood is better than Perry at Armadale, only one you could claim is Lambert for Nagel but then again he’s never been to Armadale and Lambert scored a barrel load on his last appearance.

I don't disagree with you in the main. I was quite happy to pay my £29 in the seats to see the current world number 2 and 3, and another SGP rider and another most people seem to think should be an SGP rider. For me, heat 15 was worth the entry fee. At other tracks the amount I would pay might be less. I pay less to watch speedway than I do, for example, rugby - but British speedway could do so much more to attract more support and to improve the value of the event.

I don’t disagree with your comments but the financial stakes seem to be much bigger these days and with Poland seemingly calling the tune it is a big financial risk for riders. In all fairness who would blame Brady for not taking too many risks given the biggest prize of his career possibly up for grabs. As much as I like Bartosz I would like to see Brady take the honours this year as the guy deserves it.
