How about Klindt writing "must turn up to ride for Plymouth at some point" in his log book? 😂😂

Can't afford water at Oxford

... the neutral Start Marshal, with his Oxford cap on and an Oxford logo on the back of his onesie 😀

Cook read the classic Charles wright dive bomb like a book there.

Annual play off injury jinx lol Beat a Sheffield side in the semi final missing Woffinden Won against Leicester away in the final with a full 1-7…. Or do you mean you had Iversen guesting for Cook in the second leg Ipswich lost Doyle and Emil when Nile’s clear last season You won the league because you had no injuries last season around play off time

Say it every meeting along with the GPs the commentary is truly awful. You can tell Tatum just turns up and wings it he has zero knowledge of modern day speedway aside from what is directly put under his nose.

Wishing all Brummie fans a brilliant and memorable night.

I thought the same didnt realise they moved up.

If only we could ride our home meetings at Cowley.....

Admittedly I wasn’t and that sounds farcical if I’m honest having double points! I get the idea of it and how it makes meeting not runaway ones but when you come in fresh to speedway and look at the amount of random rules and regs its not that hard to see why people go to a few meetings then give up. I really just love the racing and enjoy it so it isn’t exactly a game changers for me just more or a frustration as to why someone gets a second chance at a meeting if they are dogSht to start with

Decent enough meeting for an end of season filler. The racing was compromised due to the need to keep the dust under control on a hot and breeze day. Only 6 heats had anything of note happen after they had sorted themselves out off the start by B3 L1. This meant it could appeal to the racing fans and the gate’n’go brigade so win win there. Big crowd and great atmosphere with the usual excellent presentation added to with the sound and pictures from the big screen. Shame a Tate EF in the away fixture cost us the bonus but if we are to have our usual bad luck, then have it in a qualifier. This unfortunate loss and our aggregate win against the lions earlier in the year just leaves Ipswich who we have failed to tame. Given the fact we pulled back 14 points over just 9 heats suggests we can be successful again when it comes to giving trophies out. It’s squeaky bum time though as our annual play off injury jinx is due in the next fortnight. Opponents take heart.

What's better racing,, blasting round the boards at Belle Vue or this?

i dont mind tac subs but home teams shouldnt use them imo if you are that far behind on your own track then tough luck

I cant believe anyone thought they could possibly win. You will get stuffed in the play offs whoever you are against.

Nope it was a big crowd.

Sheffield came to win as they wanted to finish top, but maybe your the TM of Sheffield and not Simon Stead. I remember the same being said about the play offs last year.

It's not that different... were you following Speedway when you got double points for your tactical? Now that was crazy! Tac subs have long been a part of Speedway, In fact there hadn't used to be a limit on them when I first started following Speedway (aside from 1 each per rider) and it made the sport a hell of a lot more interesting imo. As a fan you really used to be able to play team manager unlike these days where it's barely worth a TM even being in attendance.

When they going to realise that was Ben Cook in third in that race … pathetic

Bang average but better than every other track.

If you didn't enjoy today's meeting id give up if I was you. Roadworks why even mention it, nothing to do with the Aces and they Tweeted about it ahead of the meeting. Yes you can't pay on back straight with cash but you can very quickly use the app to buy a ticket on your phone, which I know they consistently tell people. I got in after 11:30 and got a program, there was still a few left after start time as was announced. I also got hot food at 11:55 and they had everything left but pies. As for the track this is where you really are talking absolute nonsense, it was in superb nick and produced good racing on a very very hot day. As for the toilets yes it's not great there was no water but that was due to a burst pipe, these things happen. Stop moaning.

But in the play offs that wont happen, Sheffield came for the point and they got it. They wont lose by so much in the play offs.

But you can make a substitute when you are winning as well and defend. Not just when you are losing. It’s totally different.

Fully agree. What’s he supposed to do when he’s been moved by the start Marshall, not like he’s choose to move by himself he’s being forced. Crazy from the ref really.

Can’t stand Tungate but that was farcical …. Was clearly asked to move over and did and gets excluded …. Wrong decision for me

Harsh on Tungate that... what's to stop these, notoriously neutral, start marshal's timing riders out in the future?
