Must admit I'm amazed more hasn't been made of it, although given speedway's constant fear of controversy, perhaps I shouldn't be.

I thought the same.

Nice one I'll be watching

Well spotted,edit done 👍

I thought Loftus had something about him when I saw him last season but hasn’t kicked on by the looks of it , could still come good though.

Would be a no brainer for me a live actual match over a bus parade every time. I will be streaming this as am not in the area - hopefully my first gone witches fixture will be 14th may!

Speedway on tv in Poland now

Tearing across Ipswich like a headless chicken

Cheers

Reading the key timings put out by the council the park bit should still be finished by 12.30/1 so no reason you couldnt do both

Is that Diane Abbots calculator your using

Thanks for the link

Thanks for the link, very much appreciated.

This is what Patryk Dudek told the Polish media (Sportowe Fakty) after yesterday's SGP in Landshut: “We spoke to Phil Morris before the race to make sure he was careful with the watering and that we didn’t use too much water. The track is loose, and the organizers had added extra surface material. It was a complete disaster. We fought throughout the entire race to get Phil to stop watering. When he finally did, the track was safer, and the final races were actually entertaining. We just point out problems, but we can’t change them,” Patryk Dudek continued. No wonder Patryk Dudek was so upset. The competition was truly dangerous. Our representative suggested that the speedway riders lacked influence and that perhaps the fans should take matters into their own hands. “It’s not about breaking bones. When we talk to Phil Morris during a race, he expects respect. Of course, we swear because we’re pumped with adrenaline. Maybe the fans have the necessary influence,” Dudek said.

As I said earlier he loves water. You want to see how full he runs his bath

Witches to win by 4

great post

It’s bloody ridiculous

Funnily enough, Kyle Howarth probably cost Workington a place in the BSN semis by taking the booking here instead of at Berwick. He would of scored way more than the 3 R/R got for Edinburgh, the Comets would have got beat at home anyways whoever guested. Plus he also didn't match what Cookie would of scored 😆 Simon Lambert was on standby to ride at No.2 but then couldn't make it, would have ran R/R for Cook instead

When will Morris stop flooding the track every 4 Heats somebody needs to get a grip of him.

Absolute piss take

That's fifteen quid of diesel saved both ways....

Let's be fair... There isn't any real rewards for winning any UK Competition, therefore promoters see their role as just putting out a Speedway meeting.... There are only three boxes that UK Speedway feel need ticking... Riders getting the chance to earn money... Fans getting to see Speedway racing... Promoters, Referees, and the Track Volunteers, all getting to enjoy their main hobby... To measure UK Speedway against other "professional" team sports is pretty much like measuring chalk to cheese.. The irony, of course, is that the money needed to be brought in to the sport to make it "relevant" and to give it some "prestige" will never happen, as no major brands would ever associate themselves with UK Speedway given the "erratic" way it is ran, hence Competition Sponsors are usually always "in-house" and connected to the sport in some way.. What we have, is pretty much all there is, which, let's be brutally honest, isn't going to last too much longer when all the "veteran" Double Uppers start to wain or retire... (And should Poland make riders pick only one league extra to ride in, it could bring the end quicker)... Ironically, when these things happen, it actually may mean those who run the UK version of the sport do eventually, through necessity, realise that "something new" just could be required.. Edit. I will add a fourth box to be ticked.. Winning at home, with winning away not a priority box to be ticked, as it can cost too much...

Thank you. I'm surprised riders turned it down. They are always saying they are skint !!
