  1. Past hour
  2. it is a very simple idea, but complicated to get people and riders to agree to it.. but would be a great leveller, for the riders who dont have the big budgets that some of the top riders have, but it would be a great way to reset the British speedway leagues, this could thats why i said complicated., costs are the problem with speedway at our level of support , but probably cheapest way to restart, good luck with what ever you can come up with,
  3. That was down as family emergency though rather than compassionate leave. Howarth also missed a meeting due to family emergency i believe. On Redcars SM pages (mainly X) they are still saying Lawson, so who knows! 🙃🤷‍♀️
  4. It’s a simple idea but not simple to implement, there are factors like engines, finding a happy medium of what different riders would accept, you can’t just put a standard engine in and expect someone who is built like Dan bewley to ride the same engine as someone like matej zagar, there has to be a compromise between the 2, meet half way if you like,who supplies the engines ? and who services them? there are a whole variety of factors that are not obvious to the general fan but I believe it can be done but not overnight, it’s needs to be floated now and use 2026 to test and iron out the problems with 2027 to roll it out, it won’t happen though
  5. Not many got near Thompson to be fair.It put some of his Teammates to shame. IMO

  7. And what if someone better than Cairns & Rushden comes along in two years time? But couldn't get near Thomsen in his next ride & failed to score in his final ride.
  8. I have a plan around that very basic Idea but it has a lot more detail and and overcomes a lot of the issues that arise from the concept of outsourcing the equipment from the riders,I have spent a few months working on it, talking to some people in the sport who understand the workings of the concept, I am planning to float it on a podcast soon but I’m sceptical it will fly not because it’s a bad idea but because to get anything going in speedway someone has to be making money from it
  9. Did I dream it or did Sheffield get a facility for Jack Holder for family reasons earlier in the season?
  10. Is it time they split out the U21s from the whole SGP/SGP2 structure and replace the SGP2 with something more akin to the SEC? SGP2 then becomes a place where your Huckenbecks, Kvechs, etc. ride. Maybe they can offer a full SGP spot for the winner/top 3 (balanced out by a relegation spot(s) from the SGP). This way, we can find out how good a rider is amongst what would theoretically be the top 16-30 in the world. It also offers a nice route for the likes of Parnitskyi, Przyjemski, etc. to experience a season-long competition without being dumped into the GPs. They could even have it on a Friday night before a GP, offering something meaningful and competitive for fans to make a weekend of it.
  11. Today
  12. Well it’s good to see the Buxton name back, whatever their nickname is 👍 I’ll have to make a point of travelling to the Peak District next summer to take in a meeting (with my coat!).

  14. Yes, but don’t Poole get special treatment?🤨
  15. I fancy Ipswich overall but Leicester won't roll over like they did last season. Ipswich just have so much depth and quality all over it's hard to look past them over two legs
  16. heres a weird one, the clubs provide and maintain standard bikes, riders just turn up and ride them. they then control the costs of maintain equipment and riders get paid a lot less.
  17. Buxton Bosoms. Just in case it all goes ti*s up
  18. Watched the match last week he was brilliant .Past both Lebedevs and Vaculik.Very aware of what’s going on the the races for being so young.
  19. And he did it by passing them too not just gating over them
  20. I would go as far as saying he single handedly kept Bydgoszcz in with a fighting chance! I’m in Gorzow now staying with the family and going to the Sunday match so it will be interesting to see him live!
  21. It’s Buxton hitmen and if you’re using the high name it’s high edge not high peak
  22. Born 21.09.09 Made his debut for Bydgoszcz last week beating Lebedevs and Vaculik in his paid 11.
  23. What time is the 1st race 2night, not fussed about watching all t pre match build up.
  24. A bit strange as the reason he withdrew from the Blue Riband was because he couldn't get his bikes down to Poole!!
