  1. Past hour
  2. Fantastic result.... Fantastic two meetings... How do they serve up so much fantastic Speedway without those so important, necessary evil, guests? ๐Ÿ˜
  3. Well done to both sets of riders for providing an entertaining meeting. On to 2026 for more of the same.
  4. Congratulations to Toruล„, well deserved and if nothing else proving you canโ€™t buy a league championship
  5. Pipe dream I know... But, just Imagine beaming this, at a UK level, from BBC or ITV every Sunday? Incredible entertainment....๐Ÿ˜Ž
  6. Absolutely spot on. I found the Speedway Star recent edition which claimed something like "70% of fans want one big league" to be totally irresponsible. It seemed to be 70% of people responding to a dishonest question The question they were responding to was "Would you support one big league if it had 14 strong teams with good quality riders, and equally competitive teams?" But get that thought out of your head. A "yes" answer to that question is irrelevant. That's not an option. One big league, running on any racenight, would automatically rule out anyone who races in the Polish leagues. Gone would be: Max Fricke, Jack Holder, Brady Kurtz, Dan Bewley, Emil Sayfutdinov, Jaimon Lidsey, Josh Pickering, Ryan Douglas, Jason Doyle, Michael Jepsen-Jensen, Chris Holder, Tom Brennan, Luke Becker, Jan Kvech, Tobias Musielak, Nicolai Klindt, Matej Zagar, Keynan Rew, Ben Cook, Maciej Janowski, Rohan Tungate, Norick Blodorn, Francis Gusts. So that's 23 riders gone from Britain. So what will the Premiership bring to a new combined league? JUST ADAM ELLIS ! Every other rider who ride in the Premiership in 2025 (apart from Adam Ellis) doubled up into the Championship. We can't count them twice. So, the 5 teams joining the "One Big League" (Belle Vue, King's Lynn, Ipswich, Leicester, Sheffield) are bringing Adam Ellis to the party, but they need 5 x 7 = 35 riders. So these big 5 need to take 34 of the doubling up riders.... The remaining 9 championship clubs need 9 x 7 = 63 riders..... but 34 of them are not availsble because they can no longer double up. So suddenly we need a further 34 riders. Where are they coming from? We could look to the National League, but many of the NDL riders already double-up into the Championship, others are still only 15 years old, so even if we take every NDL rider right down to the lowest 3.00 newcomer, we still can't get close to filling 14 "One Big League" teams. Then of course, with no one able to double up, will riders be happy to have their income reduced by so much? Or will they quit the sport? What happens when someone gets injured? Where will replacement riders come from? ONE BIG LEAGUE CANNOT POSSIBLY WORK.
  7. Remember a draw on the night means Lublin are champions as they finished top, no superheat over in Poland! 3-3 now and a turn celebrate!
  8. Were talking about having rev limiter, to help protect the engine and prevent blow ups, and to make bikes more equal thus maybe have closer better racing, but this idea seems to have disappeared
  9. That could have been the most important point of Kawczynski's career, but he gave it away on the last bend, fool. He only had to creep around the white line!
  10. While it's never ideal to have such a long delay, surely starting 90 mins late, rather than calling it off at 5pm is the better option? However, they should have announced the delay sooner, not had a parade & done away with the interval.
