Berwick to miss the playoffs with bad luck,think Plymouth will be the dark horses, Glasgow ,Oxford and Poole

Oh well, if it’s a must

How bad is Lambert got to ride before he’s dropped.

I know the 75% one exists as it affected Redcar last year with Erik Riss. Not sure about the other rule 🤷‍♂️ but think if it had been brought in it was to stop the possible re declarations occurring when a situation like Josh Pickering’s average drop comes about. 🤷‍♂️. Where’s all the knowledge when you need it 😂

Round 6 of the FIM Flat Track World Championship Series on Saturday, August 29, 2026, at King's Lynn

Some kind of Flat Track type thing I think

Paul Starke

Should have used ai 😂

No!?! You've just ruined my day... away ay, day away, day...

This draw is null and void and has been re drawn by a Edinburgh fan 😀😀😀😀

With all the doom and gloom on here over the Winter, am I the only one that can’t wait for the season to start? I genuinely don’t think I’ve ever been so excited for the season to come round for many a season with the line ups in all leagues looking close and competitive. As some as the biggest fans of the sport, and therefore most likely to attract new supporters, can’t we all look at the positives rather than the negatives? Positives - Same number of tracks as last season. Yes ok so some some tracks have chosen not to run in as many leagues as last season (particularly national league) but in terms of actual tracks running, we are at exactly the same number as last year. We’ve lost Birmingham and Kent but gained the yet to be announced new prem team and Buxton - We still have a premiership Great news for Sheffield and Ipswich fans (sale almost completed) that are back at the tapes and with a high chance of a brand new team joining we are just 1 team down from last season and some top stars already back, Holder, Bewley, Douglas, Kurtz etc. - Bright young British stars I honestly think we have some of our most promising young riders coming through for years and if we don’t put too much pressure on them and they keep progressing as they have been then Cairns, Rushen and Scott could be the future Lambert, Bewley and Brennan - The fight goes on Despite all the negativity about the sport dying there are still passionate fans and businessmen out there fighting to bring back former tracks, Coventry, Peterborough, Rye House, Lakeside, Kent, Eastbourne, Swindon, Wolverhampton and no doubt more we don’t know about with rumours of 1 or 2 new locations too. I’m not wearing rose tinted glasses and pretending everything with the sport is perfect by any means but please put things into perspective and give some credit where it’s due, be grateful to the promoters and sponsors that put their hands into their pockets to keep the sport we love going and do everything we can to support it. If we give up then we’ll lose it forever. Enjoy the 2026 season everyone

That would certainly be a shock, Brian Cant died in 2017...

That's a tough one but having read the press release on how influential LR has been on Arran Butcher's career I'd say he is the man! I mean there is no way you would be able to persuade Alfie Bowtell and Jack Smith to ride for 3rd division pay Deano!!!

The Rest Scunthorpe

So who would you all pick as your final rider? Several available that rode last season that would still fit with the points left available. Bastian Borke Alfie Bowtell Declan Kennedy Paul Starke Jason Garrity Simon Lambert

That's never been a rule has it? There was a rule at one point that you couldn't make a change after 75% of your fixtures but no idea if that still exists.

I hate Amazon, but i still keep buying stuff from them

It is a delicate and ongoing legal situation, so no 'paying off' has taken place. The stock car promoters have stated that there will be no racing there in 2026, and have taken their fixtures to other venues for the coming season, but at present have not ruled out a return in 2027. Stock car fans are not happy as the same thing happened in 1997 when the Sky money first poured into the Super League and they forced us out to build their fully enclosed 'Superdome'. Since then they have bounced from one financial disaster to another, and when Startrax reopened Odsal in 2021 the Bulls had been absent for 2 seasons as they couldn't afford to play there. Without stock cars they would still be playing home matches at Dewsbury (although rumour was they were getting kicked out of there due to a dispute at the time). To then screw the ones that got them back into Odsal 5 years later shows them in a very bad light.

What event are KL staging?

yep, which sort of makes this whole topic pointless!

You try holding a Tigers sign between your teeth, it's nigh on impossible poor thing must have been shattered posing all day for that. The Bates's should be reported to the RSPCA (or is the RSPCL now?) This is more appropriate, a passive tiger with a Fox!

Other than it would take a significant amount of cash to get to a level where it conforms to FIM standards.

so they race Tuesdays, ,so go for a week you could get 4 meetings in, in one week if planed right.

True,but he has stepped in before to keep a club running more than once so it wouldn't surprise me
