Thought I would have seen photos of the past start tarts 😜 think Poland still have some 😃

Well done you. If you ever need a lift to the train station i'm sure plenty of people would offer. I'm in the priveliged position of being in walking distance and usually do.

There are no mods, other than @Phil who only ever seems to check in once in a while to see if there are any problems.

I always thought that was against Forum rules? But, it does seem the Mods are asleep most of the time and seem to be doing less and less, compared to what they used to do.

I thought he was out injured at the start of our season?

DTTV - The Cost of Speedway

Bob Andrews, number 7 on the list is now gone.....sad, another one bites the dust.

I would guess that Mark Lemon is a nominee and not the beneficial owners. The beneficial owners are probably the BSPL or some subsets of its membership, possibly in conjunction with the Speedway Futures crowd.

Think any team would have had him this year if he wanted it

he's had a very good career. wish him well in his retirement.

It'd be a shorter topic to name the ones that weren't 🤔

I see Beau Bailey is in the Aussie team - how long will it be before he gets a UK place?

No need for an explanation, I just didn't expect to see your name on there... as a sports journalist though... what's going on at Northampton Speedway with their "owners" and why the big cover up with people sworn to secrecy?

Past: Gert Handberg & Jarek Hampel Present: Nikolai Klindt. Can think of many more of course but it all depends at what stage of their career as well.

There are many reasons but for me, it's the constant search for speed, more speed, even greater speed than the last. Speedway globally should go for an engine reset & go down the standardised 'sealed units' route. Get rid of expensive 3rd party parts tuners.

The riders?

I was a Director at Birmingham for a brief period as part of the new consortium which took over for the 2022 season, and my involvement was mainly centred around helping ensure they were in a position to run that year, because there was a huge amount of work to be done that winter for them to get to that stage. My resignation was due to a significant change in work circumstances in April 2022 which, in my view, meant there could have been a perceived conflict of interest had I remained directly associated with one club at a Director level, although there was no pressure applied from any direction before I took that decision.

Robert Lambert rides in the Zarnovica qualifier.

After Freddie's crash this weekend, it appears that we now have a lot more crashes than normal, some very big 😲. What is the cause of these, have seen mentioned that the tyres are unpredictable 😲 will the powers that be, FIM, here and Poland etc do anything about it ?

Yes it does, and he's the only one with 1 share at £1. https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/17106324/filing-history Incorporation statement... it may of course have changed since.

Being a Director doesn't necessarily mean that person is a shareholder. When i looked at Companies House info a few weeks ago, Lemon was the only named director. But does the CH info disclose shareholders? Not to my knowledge, but you could have access to greater depth info?? I tend to think that shareholder identities are usually hidden information, a private matter unless disclosed by the shareholder publicly?

Thursday’s match line-up start time 6pm UK time Bydgoszcz v Lodz Bydgoszcz 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 Lodz 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8

I'm well aware of him being 1st reserve now. But it doesn't automatically mean he'll take Lindgren's place when Thomsen himself is currently not 100% fit. And yes it does need official confirmation. I do hope Thomsen will ride though. From www.fimspeedway.com "His replacement is subject to FIM confirmation."

Doubling up?

An exclusive( BSF anyway lol) that next Tuesday’s 26th May Premier Sports live match is from Motala Piraterna v Lejonen.
