  7. Thought I might take a look inđź‘€
  8. Only just seen this post, been a while, FD means fallen disqualified and R is retired from race. As for the points I have no idea either. Sorry
  9. the failures at Northampton began long before a wheel was turned ,, it was almost a secret except to speedway fans ,that Northampton were opening . lots of potential fans not even aware there was going to be speedway ,,it was a massive investment to get Northampton up and running , and IMHO some of that money would have been better placed elsewhere , bribing a current championship team to step up . and investing in Northampton to start in accordance with the bspa rules and run in the championship , A championship season would give newbies a good few new teams to watch ,not the same 5 over and over , and championship fans a new venue to see , seems like a winner to me , a successful first season ,building and retaining their own fanbase ,and revenue from away team supporters while a home fanbase built up ,,season 2 a step up a league allowing the bribed team to step back down
  10. Group E result in Zielona Gora Gorzow 4 Pila 3 Poznan 2 Zielona Gora 1 Cumulative after 3 of the 4 rounds Gorzow 12 Pila 8.5 Poznan 6.5 Zielona Gora 3
  11. At 14 competitors that would be the largest field for a BYC 500 round since June 2016 at King's Lynn Final: Kyle Bickley, Jordan Jenkins, Tom Brennan (Anders Rowe and Dan Gilkes were also in top six)
  12. Yes i thought that Kurtz was earmarked for "Northampton" but i suspect the longer that things dragged on over the winter, then Kurtz would have run out of patience and needed to get his 2026 calendar sorted out, so had to stick with BV. As for the current predicament, perhaps as Peter Oakes suggested recently, Northampton could be helped-out, by way of being granted "special dispensation". For instance, being allowed to try and sign a rider (of suffiently good standard) who is only required to ride in home matches. Whilst this wouldnt solve the problem of being vulnerable to heavy away defeats and a poor attraction, maybe a little flexibility with guest rider averages could be allowed with the proviso that those riders do not appear in heat 15?
  13. To have a sixth team, yes, but the thought of it being better than any of the existing teams, I think they coughed at that one. 🤣
  14. Think it would have been harder with Lambo still there,the problem with R/R is if someone has mechanical issues, don't think there's any footy on but the shows will be taking up half the carpark
  15. Group A result in Wroclaw today Wroclaw 4 Leszno 3 Ostrow 2 Gniezno 1 Cumulative after 3 of the 4 rounds Leszno 11 Wroclaw 10 Ostrow 5 Gniezno 4
  16. They're doing better than I expected actually, with some close(ish) scores away without them ever really threatening to win a match. What hasn't helped them is the fragility of the league and a club's inability to cover adequately for injury, this has been shown over the last few years with the loss of Doyle x 2, Sayfutdinov, DJ Woffy etc. etc. the strength in depth of the league is just not there when one of the "big" points scorers gets injured.
  17. BELLE Vue are delighted to confirm a bumper afternoon of racing at the National Speedway Stadium this Sunday, May 10 (1pm). The club will be staging the JR Ashworth & Sons Colts Academy Individual featuring several rising stars of the current National Development League, as well as 500cc and 250cc sections of the British Youth Championship. Whilst Belle Vue are not competing in the NDL this season their commitment to rider development remains strong, and several recent Colts riders will return for the event. 2025 team members Freddy Hodder, Harry Fletcher, Jack Shimelt and Billy Budd are all included in the line-up. Colts joint manager Graham Goodwin said: “We've always had a loyal following for the Belle Vue Colts, and we're looking forward to welcoming back those 2025 Colts team members for this NDL standard meeting, so we hope fans will respond and come along to welcome them back. “They're going to face tough competition from a number of Championship riders, with Ace Pijper (Redcar), Jordy Loftus (Edinburgh), Ryan Ingram (Scunthorpe), and Jamie Etherington (formerly Workington) all gaining second division experience along with Freddy who is progressing well at Glasgow. “Mickie Simpson, Senna Summers and Stene Pijper are all solid NDL performers, and at the bottom of the age range we have 15-year-old Ollie Binns, who is quite local to us in Cheshire, and is just starting out on his NDL career with King's Lynn.” The JR Ashworth & Sons Colts Academy Individual will be a 14-heat individual event, made up of 12 heats plus semi-final and Final. All of the riders are aged 21 and under, with an average age of 19. In addition, the meeting features the 500cc and 250cc sections of the British Youth Championship, run over a total of 19 heats and two Finals, meaning a packed schedule of 35 races in all. Turnstiles will open at midday with the parade at 12.55 ahead of the opening race. Admission prices will be set at regular Colts levels – Adults £15, Concessions £13, Junior (12-17) £6, Children (11 and under) Free, Family £36, Programme £2.

BRITISH YOUTH CHAMPIONSHIP (250cc): Kane Newby, Finley Theobald, Archie Rolph, Demi Blu Harris, Charlie Fletcher.
  18. The FIM pretty much let all disciplines market themselves, and don't have much involvement in the day to day running of each discipline... The FIA do a similar job in car racing... Give the event their official licence, then sit back, and count the money paid in to them...
  19. go back five years before the BSPA killed the midland and southern leagues . a cost free gravy train of young british riders . a good few who went on to make the grade . but stupidity and greed put an end to what was the best training ground for young riders ..
  20. Kileen is doing OK, he isn't the problem, Etheridge may be, but to swap him we will most likely have to swap two riders
  21. I dont think the FIM give a toss about speedway .except the money they can take from licensing and FIM event promoters , they certainly don't care enough to to make any effort to promote speedway across the world , they actually do very little on behalf of speedway. and apart from the loss of money wouldn't care if speedway no longer existed
  22. Confirmed line-ups and live updates Holsted v Esbjerg https://rs.dmusport.dk/loeb/7441 Slangerup v Fjelsted https://rs.dmusport.dk/loeb/7443 Region Varde v Brovst https://rs.dmusport.dk/loeb/7442 Vojens v Grindsted https://rs.dmusport.dk/loeb/7444
  23. Agreed. Support through thick and thin. Plus, 2026 is very much a consolidation year given how late they started. I'm not sure what some people expected?!
  24. A battle of reserves should be close. But I think the pirates have too much fire power in the 1/3/5 positions. And Lawson and Zach in H13/15 will be too strong for Klindt and Co to live with. Lawson might be unbeatable again
