  1. Past hour
  2. Riders dictating the Sport.soon the will have find work outside the Sport.!
  3. Any way on to 27 1 2 Rew 3 Brennan 4 New pole using Wroclaw connection 5 Musilak 6 7 Will we see Rew back next year I think we might. Brennan is a no brainer after his struggles this season A young exciting rider using the Wroclaw connection seems to be feasible i would have Musilak back if the averages allow. As for the reserve berths no idea. I guess if Pedersen does well he could be the number 6 As for the number 1 do they go the Doyle route or possibly try & temp Emil back? Or will we see someone new? A lot depends on league structure & points limit but a refresh over the winter is required. Ive only left King out because I think he’ll be expensive on his average after cracking 2026.
  4. Is it just for Ipswich that Lawson doesn't do the "victory" parade? Does He it do it for Poole?
  5. Well done to the Leicester Speedway Supporters Club for organising a coach to Ipswich allowing more fans to travel.
  6. A good win for the Foxes, about the best you can expect from that team and it's nice to see them finally do it. Still some issues, obviously, such as the second-best rider wearing the #2 race jacket and two 1-5s in the most vital heats, but you have to enjoy it while you can! Still a lovely place to watch speedway from the grandstand!
  7. Its sad to see Worky struggling with crowds after the 1999 comeback year. Always great travelling fans, travelled in numbers and who can forget the support they gave Stoney in the GP. The fact of the matter is that speedway is just not a popular sport anymore. The older generation who supported it in its glory days aren't there anymore anywhere for obvious reasons and the promotions countrywide have done nothing to bring the sport to a newer audience.
  8. Could do with bringing another exciting rider over next year to add to the ones we already have. Woryna would be fun to watch..
  9. British riders making Denmark a bigger priority than British Speedway ? What the idiot is going on.
  10. That’s why there should be no guests in these situations.Clubs do not give a jot regarding fans.Expected to turn up and watch anybody ride for the Team.Thats not credible .IMO crowd levels won’t increase with that attitude.
  11. I agree. 6-7 pointers will have good and bad meetings, but i feel Kvech and Cook are better than that. Bomber is also up and down, but gives it his all. Add 3 youngsters in the team who are naturally still learning their trade. Nothing seems to work, however we build our teams.
  12. My best ever spread !!!! Lodz GP Saturday 1st August start time 6pm. Zmarzlik 15 - 17 Kurtz 15 - 17 Lambert 14 -16 MJJ 11 - 13 Madsen 10 - 12 Dudek 10 -12 Woryna 9 - 11 Thomsen 7 - 9 Fricke 7 - 9 Lebedevs 7 - 9 Doyle 6 - 8 Kubera 6 - 8 Kvech 5 - 7 Piotr Pawlicki 3 - 5 Huckenbeck 3 - 5 Parnitskyi 2 - 4
  13. On facebook there was a posting about a coach load of them - it was nice to see a visible away fan presence - sure they enjoyed the result!
  14. Today
  15. 2nd semi on Friday 7th August not on TNT Sports so waiting to see if it’s on HBO Max, which it should be.
  16. It was a close affair last night and good to see some Leicester fans making some noise. Shame Ipswich let points slip with King and Lawson falling but that's how it goes sometimes. Kemp was awesome for Leicester, 15 from a 5 point reserve has won them the cup I think. Brennan was woeful yet again, even when he makes good starts he gets beat up around the first couple of bends and given the side Ipswich have, if your 'number one' only gets 4/5 points meeting it's never going to end in success. I hope he can turn it around but we're now coming into August. Moaners on here make me laugh, ooh the track this or that, nothing wrong as far as I can see - last night was a little slicker but that's how speedway has always been in the UK and is what makes it more interesting for me, rather than fastest engine wins on a billiard table.
  17. Jonathan Swales ( brother of the promoter ) , fell out with the owners ( the brothers ) , like a lot of people have. Current ‘track man’ is an inexperienced volunteer, who only falls outwith them occasionally. He has 2 ‘assistants’ and a ‘mentor’ , but he’s better than nothing!
  18. Will indeed 😁 Thank you for inviting me in to the sponsors lounge and taking me on to the centre green to watch a few heats. Amazing how different the experience is when you’re that close! Blew me away
  19. But he's not withholding his services, the situation has arisen because Poole promotion have CHOSEN to arrange/rearrange matches when they know Lawson may well be unavailable (because his danish club has pre-arranged fixtures on those days). If Poole stick to the original fixtures and avoid clashes with the other club's, the Pirates have priority on Richards services. Of course it would be great if our club could have exclusive rights to a riders services, but that simply isn't practical/possible in the current UK speedway set up. Where a top Championship rider needs to ride in a number of leagues in order to make it a viable proposition.
  20. Haven't seen a graveyard gate 4 like that for a long time - a bit bizarre really A freakish Drew Kemp performance was the difference between the draw we got and the Witches picking up the 10+ win to make it interesting - as simple as that
  21. King's Lynn aren't going to achieve anything until drastic changes occur. Jan Kvech hasn't improved at all since stepping foot on British soil. Ben Cook is the biggest throttle jockey the Sport has seen in recent years to a point where he's only consistent around tracks that don't require much skill (NSS and Polish tracks)
  22. And sadly that shows the quality of the product compared to years gone by, Leicester have a solid side but not one rider in it who's in the top 20-30 riders in the world. This is another one of the sports huge problems chipping away at the quality of the product year on year but also upping the cost every season. It certainly hasn't helped Sheffields cause having no Tai and losing Jack Holder this year. Same with Ippo no Doyle and Emil, the flip side though is even if you bring in a big hitter crowds might go up for 3-4 meetings then level off again, then you have Belle Vue two awesome riders on show most weeks but crowds down also lord knows how it can be turned around if it even can.
  23. Paul Hurry thinks he's back to his best. I refuse to criticise Tom because I'm fully aware of the situation he's been put in, Really not nice to see him struggle almost every week this season. I'll 100% stick by the young lad even if he scores 0 tbh.
  24. I agree, You can't upset the apple cart because you'll get hounded out. I hope they listen to Richard Coleman but I don't have much hope because we're talking about people who've never listened no matter how bad things have got year after year.
  25. Hardly an achievement in a 6 Team League that features King's Lynn and Northampton. Was never winning the Cup before a wheel was turned because Leicester are head and shoulders above Ipswich hence why I called out Paul Hurry's excuses about Stewart Dickson in our previous Home meeting against the Lions. Leicester are the 2nd best team in the League imo and the only thing stopping them from doing the Double is their track record at the NSS imo.
  26. ben cook taking the pi55 out of this league
  27. Friday’s match 31st July line-ups Ostrow v Rzeszow start time 6pm UK time. Ostrow 9 10 11 12 13 14 15 16 Rzeszow 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8
