I had a big crash there in 1996 riding for long Eaton clipping James birkenshaw’s back wheel entering the 3rd turn and smashing into the mesh fence before air fences and ending up in Sheffield hospital,,I still have the race jacket which I ripped open on my handlebar clamps,but I still didn’t mind riding there for 15 or more years as an away rider even though I was usually crap there 😂 but it was an easy place to ride and never considered it dangerous

I actually said as soon as Sheffield beat us at Foxhall they will finish top and that the play offs have been picked wrongly once again.

Meant to be here!

Was a shame he had to pull out. I just assumed he was in Poland.

If you were a Sheffield supporter I'd feel more worried for Sheffield!!

They have done away with riders as assets, they are classed as self employed

Nobody is going to suggest that. The cut off was stated, the matches weren't completed in time, and we have to accept that. But let's not pretend that we only finished top because your riders weren't trying tonight. We finished top because of the result at your place at the start of the month. We were unfortunate that the way the playoffs fell pitted us against the only team to beat us over 30 heats this season (super heats not included). Had the playoffs fallen any other way we would probably have made the final, but to win them you have to beat everybody and we didn't do that. Hopefully the final will be as exciting and close as our semi final was - you seem to be quite evenly matched so it should be a good spectacle for TV and whoever takes the trophy will be worthy winners.

Nee Naw Nee Naw

No, it is definitely not a joke. As I posted earlier, I lost my Track in 1964 and 1974. I am still very bitter about the way it happened, both in 1964 and 1974. You get to love a Sport and it is taken from you - it is no joke and certainly not funny. I sympathise with the Supporters with every Club that has gone, or will go to the wall. Even if Sunderland returned net Season, it is too late for me, I could not attend. It upsets me very much the way Speedway, our Sport, is shrinking. When one can see what has happened at Cradley Heath, Coventry, Peterborough, Wolverhampton, Wimbledon, Hull, Newcastle, Swindon et al - to me it is tragic. These were all great Teams years ago. I know I am getting on in years and some will say (not all I hope) that I am a silly old duffer living in the past. There is an old saying: "The past is another Country; they do thing differently there". Quote attributed to L. P. Hartley.

It's a family issue!!

Switch over to Sheffield Stadium

Take your pruning shears

IYKYK

It is posts like this that do the sport no good.

I hoe the riders have a fab time on lime and sodas lol

Last seen garn in boots for a dummy

Will Fraser Bowes be riding on Saturday as did say his season in Europe is over? Let us hope the weather is okay and they can get the meeting on.

Forecast iffy again, just hope the riders and helpers don't enjoy the end of season party too much, just in case the meeting goes ahead 🤪

Ticket officer 😂

One reason I don't like r/r is if another rider gets injured early on then you are kinda screwed. Rather a guest if poss. Prepare for the worst, hope for the best! Also what is going on with Rich?! Who knows if he'll be riding or not 🤷‍♀️

Bumper Crowds for the "War of the Roses"...

Can’t see him over here next season

The play offs are wide open Semi final 1 Sheffield v Belle Vue Semi final 2 Ipswich v Leicester

Withthe uncertainty surrouinding how mnay leagues will be runnning next season ... what are you buying ? a team of assets who might or minght not be able to ride for you next season ? If I were a Sheffield supporter, I would be worried. 😞
