Surely stay well clear of Kemp next season. Hes about as useful as a wallet full of johnnys in a bar full of lesbians. Batchelor would be my first name on the team sheet, hes been brilliant for Worky this year. Jeppesen has dropped off massively in the second half of the season, if it was purely injury related then he would also have to be a cert.

Dan Thompson and Flint as top two. Throw in Tate Z and a strong reserve and build around that. Pedersen will probably feature on his average. As i said earlier in season, Harris has dropped off a fair bit this year (despite Berwicks resident Dick telling me other wise) and theres not much value in him. Hes getting on in age now as well.

When we beat you in the semi final at your place, the cameras shown alot of your fans leaving the stadium at heat 14. I out on my belle vue Facebook group that you seen the aces now f off home. A little joke, and the response from people was wild saying this is not football. That that attitude elsewhere we dont need this in speedway. Well yes, yes we do need this. It needs to become tribal. Ive always said get rid of the family sport image because end of the day its bikes with no brakes, with riders risking there life every single heat. Thats extreme. And should be sold as an extreme sport. I said to one speedway club owner. I wont name sorry, we need to bring in betting firms on race nights. More people will come if you can bet on races at the track. And his response was we dont want that type of people at speedway. Crazy Bring tribalism back

The cad. And dangerous too with these tyres. According to Lightcap, the track was really slick so maybe Will was just trying to wear away some of the nobblies so his tyre would slide across the shiny surface?

It was "Guest" room!!! 😁 Baddam Tish!!!

Heating his rear tyre up near the start line.

That is your prerogative

Brady is far above Lightcap as a prospect (and looks better than Becker was on the same tracks). He definitely passes the eyeball test and should go far.

LINE-UP: Joe Thompson, Danny King, Sam Masters, Tom Brennan, Kye Thomson, Scott Nicholls, Cooper Rushen, Zach Cook, Max Fricke, Tate Zischke, Justin Sedgmen, Anders Rowe, Josh Pickering, Slater Lightcap, Nick Morris, Luke Harrison. Reserves: Harry Fletcher, Charlie Southwick.

What did cairns do?

Speedway is a strange sport. Garrity is naturally getting all kinds of negative press because of what he did, and rightly so. The fact is, if he did come back and did well for a club, a lot of people would put his past to one side.

Its on BSN, so pay per view. I'd like to see the full lineup, although there will likely be even more changes.

What a great evening of speedway. That was a really enjoyable meeting. Well done to Scunthorpe for preparing a track for entertainment. A good win for the Scorpions but Poole are just too strong. Ten down after six heats and the momentum with the home side, but credit to the Pirates; they respond when the chips are down. Felt like Rushen’s win in heat ten was massive for Poole. I think we’re so accustomed to his performances, we forget he’s only 16. Incredible. I defended Cairns against Redcar, but heat eight was outright cheating and the referee failing to address it was unacceptable. Well done David Howe for highlighting it on BSN before the last heat. It didn’t look good for Middleditch; he just stood there looking at the ground, speechless. Looking forward to the second leg and praying Poole prepare a track worthy of a grand final finish.

You might be on your own with that one, sorry to be harsh, but your response and attitude is the reason speedway is dying. Speedway needs more atmosphere and more passion. Not a nice little family night out. Go to the cinema if you want that. Sports has always been about atmosphere, look at darts and how it changed completely. I think you have a very closed attitude and mind and would be good working for the upper echelons of British Speedway. This is going to sound super harsh but speedway could afford to lose people with your mindset to gain a lot more people with real change.

Strong rumour Harrison will not be in next year. Hook and Ablitt not good enough. Mountain can do better. The enigma that is MPT, poor for two thirds of season and very good in last 3rd of season. Picko would like to come back, but depends on other demands i.e. Poland. Ryan Ingram only 16 and has done well in his first year, keep him. More concerning is the year after, when both Rob Godfrey and David Howe step down and who takes over the whole business

Yeah I wouldnt watch it, waste of your valuable time. Hopefully like you many BSN viewers will give it a miss so we dont have to put up with all the moaning.

You can't have two riders at home not performing and expect to get enough pts to take a comfortable lead to Poole. Scunthorpe did really well with the other five riders, but, to keep both Hook and Ablett heat 12 was a certain 5-1 to Poole. Surely Howe could have changed things around a bit, to stop that from happening. Such a shame, if those two had contributed, it could have been a bit more exciting next Wednesday.

Russian's have been ruled out FIM confirmed. Bewley, Holder, Lindgren, Kvech

I will give Scunthorpe credit for making a signing, far too many clubs just use guests.

Scunny could really of done with Hook been out for the season, coming back from injury after hardly riding all year, straight into the playoffs on a track hes not dialled in on. Jenkins or R/R would have scored a few. Good effort by Scunny, it won't be enough, Poole will win by at least 20 probably 30 at their place. What did Godfrey say in the programme, is he selling up? is that the track or the speedway club?

Because number 3 doesn't have to be a heat leader. Scunny often have their weakest second string at 3 & 3rd heat leader at 4.

I think Poole win comfortably. Even if Lawson is struggling with engines after losing a couple lately. Can’t see Scunny winning any races bar Picko and maybe Harrison? Poole could get 60

No. I haven't heard anything official though, but that's my opinion. It was brought in for 2026 as there were 9 riders over 8.00 and 9 teams. (Scunthorpe ruined it slightly by signing a rider that didn't ride in the 2025 Championship but no one said they couldn't). In 2025 there was a definite split in the haves and have nots and needed something to change to keep the league competitive. I don't expect the rule to stay, but if it does, I expect the 8.00 to be changed to whatever figure is between the 9th and 10th best rider averages after the British reduction is applied (assuming also that there is still 9 teams).

What are peoples thought on next years lineup? cant see Picko being back next season.

Will continue to happen unless fans boycott the higher prices.
