There's a strong hint on facebook that Luke Harrison (the one rider Scorps fans seem unanimous on keeping) is off to Workington next year.

Zmarslik has always looked a lot faster than most, and today the weight is the main issue.

well they may have to sit down for it then 😃

That’s the problem Clubs losing money.Why! Riders dictating when they can ride,wanting more money than the Clubs have incoming through the turnstiles,reducing the meetings does not help the sport,fans want to see regular speedway(whether it be weekly or fortnightly).Back too basics product wise and riders wages would be a start.I’m sure the entertainment factor wouldn’t be any worse.The sport needs credibility too attract new fans.IMO ps Im talking Championship Speedway here. the Premiership are a different story ( their fans seem too think it’s Ok)

He changed it into a swimming pool....

I do not think the world championship will affect the play offs, there is only one race left, Brady and Dan will be giving there all in the play offs, the bottom 3 will dictate if they win or not.

It sank due to the amount of water on it. It's now been declared a Dam !

Just out of sheer curiousity whatever happened to this new track phil morris mentioned?

Has been some real heavy rain all week and last night so probably not.

This has been pointed out many times not least of all by Keith hewen even though he was talking about riad racing but the same applies, back in the day Olsen briggs mauger Collins etc they are far superior equipment to the rest of the competitors so they always had an unfair advantage, that is not true today nobody in the field has anything better than anyone else so it’s harder to win a world championship today than it’s ever been even if you think the field itself is weaker

Hope I’m wrong come start time, but the promotion have effed up calling this off

I don’t think that will be the case at all as the play offs have something riding on them, not like the qualifiers that have filled the calendar long after the top four were settled (even if not mathematically). Brady’s most important meeting last season was the GP challenge the day after he scored a maximum and led his beloved Aces to another league title. I think we will see the Brady & Dan we saw last night come the play offs. Our bottom five have rarely set the world on fire this season and we only get around 20 points away and 25 at home. That leave Dan & Brady with potentially 28 points to add. When deciding on the winners it’s just a case of how many points you knock for those two from the potential final score of 48 away and 53 at home.

The GP Series, has been getting worse every year for the last 10 years, it is no longer genuinely competitive. The changes to the series, including copying other scoring systems, copying the idea of Qualifying and Sprint races, and the reformat to have the top 2 straight through to the final & LCQ hasn't added anything. I'd almost go as far to say it's been predictably boring this year. Kurtz getting into the GP's and doing so well has really been the only positive.

Kvech has improved this season but probably won’t get a Wild Card.

From what I'm hearing at the moment, it'll NOT be a one league structure. However it's still only August with another 2 months or so to the AGM, so anything can still change.....!

I’d be surprised to see Belle Vue come out on top this season for the simple reason that their top two riders are fighting for 1st and 3rd in the world championship, whereas the other 3 teams top end have far less to go for , except Fricke for next year’s series. Their minds have got to be on that fact , maybe one less risk taken than usual.

Total garbage …. but you made your point well

Scorpions are ok keeping 2 or 3 second strings because every team needs them but they currently have a team of second strings and reserves. They need one or preferably two genuine heat leaders a 2 point junior and fill the rest with second strings with hopefully a couple who are likely to increase their average.

I’d take Lambert as a reserve at Berwick.

I dont rate BZ at all really ..the best in a really poor era .. his titles might say otherwise but i dont even in the top ten.and i doubt he would have won a world title in another era.

They also showed that report on BBC South Today on Friday I think it was.
