  1. Past hour
  2. If we take all three points they could go 7 points clear, depending on Sheffield away performance at Oxford. It’ll leave Leicester with a match to play but 7 points with only 4 matches remaining and beating in mind we have Leicester and Sheffield home and away it would put us in a strong position to finish top surely. Also to add Belle Vue will only have 3 meetings left and one leg has already been a loss to Sheffield so if we win today with all three Belle Vue cannot catch us, until the semis or final at least 😂
  3. All this talk of points being available to some teams and not others reminds me of the double point joker used in the 2006 final. Peterborough were successful in gaining 61% of their total points whilst Reading gained 63%. Peterborough won! It was then I realise speedway was more in line with WWE than a proper sport and entertainment was the holy grail and not providing a true sporting contest. Whilst the sport is definitely still the latter, maintaining the former has proved elusive for the UK’s top league.
  4. Expecting around 51-39 to them from the Foxhole.
  5. This one will go to the wire. On the fairest track in̈ the country. Thomson an upgrade on Lasse.
  6. Excellent norbold - superb post. You paint a great picture - wish I could have been there. 👍
  7. Knock-out speedway has different mind-sets to league racing, especially after the Ford's and Middlo got them all together and agreed the track prep needed to.be different. And it was, as well as riders not worrying about their averages for 2026 team building!!😉
  8. Today
  9. Leszno draw 1 Madsen 2 Jakobsen 3 Lahti 4 Prem Pawlicki 5 MJJ 6 Woryna 7 Brennan 8 Lebedevs 9 Parnitskyi 10 Blodorn 11 Milik 12 Berge 13 Zengota 14 Cierniak 15 Piotr Pawlicki 16 Dudek
  10. OXFORD: Charles Wright, Mitch McDiarmid, Rohan Tungate, Victor Palovaara, Maciej Janowski, Peter Kildemand, Luke Killeen. SHEFFIELD: Jack Holder, Anders Rowe, Josh Pickering, Nick Morris, Chris Holder, Jye Etheridge, Leon Flint. hard to call for me this one. Feel like Oxford are making a fist of it at the moment, McDiarmid and Palovaara are a lot less experienced at this level compared to Rowe and Morris I think that could be key. If Jack Holder fancies it he could go through the card if his gating boots are on. 48 - 42 away win. Jack Holder/Pickering 5-1 in heat 15 to seal it
  11. Cause he’s sat with his feet up in some polish hotel as he doesn’t want to ride the Plymouth track.
  12. Excerpts from Plymouths FB page ahead of the Redcar double header Plymouth Gladiators team manager Garry May believes his side can keep their late-season playoff hopes alive as they prepare for a crucial double-header against Redcar Bears this weekend fresh from a stunning home victory over Poole Pirates. Plymouth will be boosted by the return of Danish star Nikolai Klindt for the away leg, with Tobias Thomsen stepping in as guest for Lasse on Friday before switching to guest at number one for Saturday’s home fixture. Rider Replacement (RR) will operate for the home match in Lasse’s absence. With playoff positions still within reach, May knows the importance of the weekend: “If we can pick up around 10 points from our last matches, including wins over Berwick, we might just sneak into the playoffs. It depends on other results, but we’ve got a chance. The way the lads have been riding beating Oxford and Poole recently it’s been tremendous.” He also urged fans to turn out in force for Saturday’s home meeting: “The crowd has been incredible these past few weeks. The riders have responded to it, you could feel the buzz after that last heat against Poole. If we’re going to make the playoffs, we need them behind us more than ever.” No mention of why Klindt is missing Saturday's meeting. I also find it ridiculous they keep going on about the play-offs, but won't put the strongest possible team out to help them get there.
  13. Also tough on the fans travelling to support the comets 😛
  14. I still think they pretended to have Cardiff on the calender to improve their chances of getting sponsors, they were always going to a do a double in Manchester. If they were struggling for a financially viable crowd at Cardiff, having a second GP in the country would only have a negative effect on attendence. I would be surprised if they don't do 2 gps manchester next year, the only way to make it pay for Discovery.
  15. I quite liked what they tried a few seasons ago, but simpler 3 points for a win 2 points for a draw 1 point for losing by 6 of less Same for home and away teams. No bonus points (always helps tracks with bigger home advantage) and no super heats....
  16. Lynn could potentially hit 60 now (although Buster is begging inside they don’t), as it will probably be the lowest crowd of the season. Can’t see much more than 700 being in attendance
  17. Flint is a good guest, riding well this season.
  18. Well something seems to have changed with the Pirates last night in the BSN semi at Wimborne Road. Maybe Middleditch reads this forum and decided to do some managing (I don't actually think this is true) . The track looked a bit different too, I thought it had a more uniform and finer surface. Racing wasn't particularly fast and there wasn't a lot of overtaking. But it's results we need now. So whatever has changed gave a very good result, long may it continue. Good to see riders realising their potential. Special shout out for Tobias who over achieved, great racing.
  19. I suspect he was just being mischievous ,would imagine he may get a W/C for next season .
