Use to love all those finals,don't forget the overseas finals,use to be one didn't there?Getting to old to remember.Also use to live the finals,the atmosphere and tension on the night was brilliant.And getting to see the World Champion crowned on the night.

First of all well done to the Foxes. Now for the not so good bits. My Uber from the station was not allowed to drop me off by the turnstiles & basically told I had to be dropped off once he was parked in the car park causing me to have a painful walk to get entry on an uneven surface. Yet again a club that advertises a 7:30 start time yet the first race was 7:44 because the crowd was outside. I have never been to another sporting event besides speedway that does not start on time. If meetings started on time the crowd would soon understand that they have to arrive earlier. The late start meant that my prebooked return Uber to the station would not wait so I wasted £22 as had to book a second ride. I know their were some on track events that caused a slow meeting but for the love of god please start on time. You charge the best part of £30 to sit in the grandstand. I consider this to be the fee of a professional sport. Please behave like one. 1. Have a drop off point for people getting lifts to the stadium. 2. Start on time so you do not appear like an amateur sport.

Two matches is not a large enough sample to provide meaningful data. Remind me what Lidsey scored last night. [You won't find me arguing about your assessment of Klindt though]

So far the crowd has been estimated as anywhere from 1,200 to 2,500…. Wish they would publish attendance figures !

Not sure about that Newman's average is not much below Bowes and Rushen won't be at reserve much longer, the way Cairns is going he could be above Bowes too soon so maybe by end of June Bowes could well be at reserve, as you say not sure it matters that much as we should be able to get a reasonable guest on Bowes current average.

Congrats to the Foxes - i do hope to make it there myself. For this season they need to focus on winning at home to keep these decent crowds interested.

The way Glasgow are going lately, it wont matter what the track is like, we will still win. Probably the rider best suited to how the track was is bomber but it wont be like that next week.

will they be scraping it all off next week when Glasgow are there 😉

Calling international contacts in Poland over a U21 stream schedule? Truly heroic stuff. I'm sure the HBO programming team is sweating right now.

While I wish Bowes well in his recovery, this doesn't hinder Poole at all. For the rest of this month Cairns & Rushen at reserve, plus Kerr & Newman can take r/r outings. When Rushen gets a new average, Cairns & Newman at reserve, Rushen can take a r/r outing. Bowes won't drop to reserve till July at the earliest. Besides if Poole can win at Redcar without Rushen, who can challenge them at all?

Gaurenteed 😂

At Monmore Green his nicknames inluded 'Norman Klunk' and ' Mr Reliably Unreliable!'

Interesting first experience of Northampton. The stand is impressive. Viewing from the grass banks less so; I wish they were higher. Everyone is looking for the best vantage point. The outside gents' urinals were a tribute to the gross toilets at Cradley Heath. I estimate the crowd at 2,500. After a confident start, Leicester threw away several points to allow Northampton to take victory. To lose to a team which includes the woeful Klindt and Batchelor takes some doing. On Douglas's first bend slide off, he did it unassisted so the exclusion was fair. Gilkes was half a lap or so behind the leader when he came off, so I think the ref erred on the side of caution to stop the race while Gilles was still leaving the track.

will they be scraping it all off next week when Glasgow are there 😉

What gjcone said! Bewley was in the form of his life and BK seems to have started slower than usual - history wont repeat itself and he won't run him that close again. I do hope that comes back to bite me though!

Really? They stopped giving wildcards to riders because of their nationality ahead of their ability, looks the strongest field since the Russians were banned to me. Not sure why people are saying it's virtually over after one round, Zmarzlik will always be favourite, but it's not like he's miles in front, he's not even leading the series yet.

Probably, ive gone off the GP tbh too predictable and when a rider can score 8/9 points win the lcq and end up with 20 points 4 more than the actual top scorer of the meeting its a joke. Also half the field automatically qualify, i understand the arguments about GP v the one offs but the route to qualify for the one off was open to every rider, some great meetings along the way too, British final, European, Nordic, Commonwealth, the jeopardy of the one off made the night special. Only my view and i understand im probably in the minority. I dont think BZ needs to get any extra laps around the NSS its the type of track he rides every week in Poland, replacing Dan is nigh on impossible.

again we see a rider getting thrown back into the track, if that happened on lap 2 and he was leading another rider could have hit him !

well you should know..🤣

even a bot couldn't have that kind of sense of humour..😁

if brady not on podium this weekend and bz is ,i recon its over.

even if it was a 60/40 fault i would prefer all 4 back, and to include coming out of second bend.

Obviously the person in question has nothing better to do with his time🤣

I don't see it that way it could all change in the blink of an eye I think that Kurtz will be in the mix( he reminds me of how Hancock rode in the latter part of his career gate and go ) ,I would love BZ to win again but it far from a done deal IMO .

That’s where speedway is turning to a money game like every other Motorsport, bad when there is a different engine suited for different tracks, that’s why riders are so inconsistent or a lot quicker when wealthy or better supported , not rider 70% equipment
