All Activity

I liked what they were trying to do at Leicester on Monday v Ipswich but it all fell apart when some of the riders broke cover and started to do some gardening at the starting gate and others were putting helmets on before their name had been called. Seriously guys, just don’t, show some respect to the paying customers. aaargh drives me nuts!

We could actually put a good team together: 1. Bjorn Knutson 2. Reg Luckhurst 3. Norman Hunter 4. Bengt Jamsson 5. Sverre Harrfeldt 6. Stan Stevens 7. Brian Leonard with Ted Ede and Terry Stone as back-ups in case of injury.

Think we should call this off it's likely to rain sometime between now and Sept! Actually looking forward to just seeing a meeting just my 2nd in 2026 so win, lose or draw I am determined to try and enjoy it!

Jason wasn't struggling last night at Oxford. Top scored as a guest for Plymouth, 14 from 5 beating Masters twice.

I watch it on You Tube, these days. English commentary version available Monday/Tuesday following. Best to avoid all Speedway website in the meantime if you want to pretend it's "live". Manged to do it so far, but had to fast forward a long way last GP. to find the first heat!

Add up the 3 averages it doesn’t leave much for the other 2 alongside Doyle … who would you have had

Next Tuesday’s (14th) Round 9 matches.

I can only speak for myself, obviously, but Speedway is pretty much off my radar now apart from the Grand Prix - and my interest in that is nowhere near the level it once was. The two main reasons with me are pretty basic. 1 - I'm a Swindon fan. I don't have a team any more. This probably applies to fans of many of the once great sides like Coventry, Wolves, Reading, Cradley, Eastbourne, Hackney, Exeter, Arena-Essex blah blah blah. 2 - League racing is no longer on TNT/BT/Discovery or whatever you want to call it this week - so I have absolutely no idea whatsover what is happening any more. I don't even know who is doing well the league any more.

No, the last speedway meeting at the old Wembley Stadium was the 1981 World Final.

Where did you hear that Siggy, always thought it was a strange choice for team manager, doesn't seem to be the motivator you need to get the team going. Maybe if Scotty does retire he could take it over next season.

Think we will do well to hit 40 tonight, with Palm-Toft nowhere near what Danny would score, Kevin Juul Pedersen never even been to Foxhall before and Jason struggling a bit at the moment. The other three will need to hit big double figure scores. I hope I'm wrong but just can't see a Witches victory, but I will be there to cheer them on

Doyley won't ride for Paul Hurry......It actually seems like no one will ride for him to be fair...Hence Edward Kennett and Michael Palm-Toft are his guests so far, cant count Chris Harris as he rides for anybody. But as the great man Coleman said at the start, we have to keep backing him in 2026....Coz 2027 will be when he needs to be judged. On Lawson, he does seem to get a lot of hate, or let's say criticism, mellow that down a bit....But he does score big points, many many more than Tom who is still sitting at Number 1. It's been a tough season, after the last 2 or 3, i suppose it had to dip, but under Paul Hurry it seemed to of dipped even lower than i thought. But don't forget those immortal words.....Judge me on 2027..NOT 2026

Best opportunity for Leicester to win at Foxhall and will be surprised if they dont 2 of our best riders at home missing this evening can only see an away win by 6 I would be confident of winning still if it was belle vue tonight but Leicester have too many riders like Douglas, Dan T and Masters that go well at Foxhall will be tough for Ipswich

Should be comfortable for Belle Vue to win here Across the sides Northampton are only stronger at 2 and 7 and maybe 4….. Belle Vue by 8

99% Not a fan of the flag, especially if it stops the rider doing a wheelie or some other such trick

It is the unusual moments I seem to remember A certain poster on this forum's son going after an opposing rider with a marshall's shovel at a Newport Mavericks meeting Will Beveridge attacking Emil Linqvist and the subsequent fracas Scott Smiths bike ending up on the rake of the passing tractor as a celebration wheelie went wrong Least able Karlsson brother having a dust up with the start marshall Frank Smart and Robin Aspergen racing each other ( tentatively) in the opposite track direction in just boots, underpants, helmet and gloves Just hope I remembered these incidents correctly It all seems somewhat sanitised these days

But another of your riders appears to taking the piss 😜

Final in Krosno on Saturday 18th July starts at 6pm UK time.

I’ll also add, taking a victory lap after winning a race. Riders, just bloody do it, it costs you naff all and you’re doing it for the people who contribute towards your wages. Take it a step further collect the team flag every time and take that on your victory lap with you.

I joined BSF at the beginning of 2010 when my son started riding at amateur level. At the time, it was the place for all the information & updates on amateur meetings, riding equipment buying & selling and was invaluable for technical help on bike maintenance etc. Sadly that section of the forum has been inactive for a number of years. I think that as smart phones became more widespread, Facebook groups took over from Internet forums. It was my first foray into the world of social media and I was surprised by the level of unpleasantness on here. It seems some people are incapable of processing opinions that differ to their own without resorting to belittling & random rudeness. I guess that applies to social media in general though, which is why I avoid it. When I first joined, Speedway was in a lot more people's living rooms because of the Sky coverage, so there was always plenty to discuss, but the only Speedway I see now is the GP so I don't contribute as much these days. I still visit regularly though to catch up on what's going on. I know that even after 16 years I'm still a relative newbie compared to some but it's good to still see familiar names that have been here for my entire BSF journey 🙂

It’s the lack of points by Grmek from reserve which is really starting to affect the Gladiators results

Do we have any idea how long Jack will be out for?

You in a hot air balloon?
