  1. Past hour
  2. I think what it showed, clearly, is that Leicester are the firm favourites for the title... Plucky Belle Vue will do their best as underdogs but it is so obvious that it is Leicester's to lose... Let's hope, for UK Speedway, that the Aces can at least keep it close if they meet in the final... šŸ˜‰
  3. Lambert will ride like a dying duck in a thunderstorm
  4. SCUNTHORPE: Josh Pickering, Connor Mountain, Dan Gilkes, Michael Palm Toft, Luke Harrison, Ryan Ingram, Nathan Ablitt. REDCAR: Charles Wright, Simon Lambert, Jake Mulford, Jason Edwards, Jake Allen, Ace Pijper, Jody Scott. Im looking forward to the battles between Pickering and Wright and also i think Redcar might edge it at reserve, Allen and Lambert are ex Scorpions so i like think this will be a close meeting.
  5. Today
  6. that muppet proud panther was trying to make himself look clever commenting on my spelling ,, I know he's too thick to understand so i pointed it out to him that anything edited is underscored with edited , it's not rocket science except for morons
  7. My thoughts on the decline. 1 Amount of entertainment per match. When I first started going, typically 21 races including 2nd half. Now it's 15. 2 Prices. Saw an article mentioning prices ( for a top division match) in the 80s. Had admission only gone up by inflation would about £9 adults, and £5 pensioners. Now more like £25/£23. This means the price per race has increased from around £0.43 to £1.66 for adults, and £0.24 to £1.53 pensioners. 3 Amount of time a meeting now takes. Seems to take longer now to do 15 races, than it did 21, many years ago. Recently went to Buxton. 3pm start, had hoped that all 15 main races and the extra MDL races would have been completed by 5pm. At 5.15, only 12 races had been completed, and they announced there would be an interval. At this point I left. Many followed. Some were departing as early as race 8. Will those people go back?. Simply taking longer to do less is not more entertaining. 4 "Gardening" at the tapes. Just boring to watch. 5 Dodgy call offs. 6 Lack of loyalty to long term fans. Seems to be some very good offers to potentially new and younger fans. All we regular fans seem to be getting is "the match has been called off" Someone is kicking a ball about/ there's something on the telly. We waited long enough for this year's fixtures, could at least try to stick to them. Not all speedway fans like football. Don't they matter?
  8. It's already extended and won't expire until mid August.
  9. You have also got ā€œbest interests of the sport ruleā€ which just keeps you guessing šŸ˜‚
  10. anything edited gets underwritten with edited . go put your glasses on and take another look .. made a complete prat of yourself there
  11. Anybody makes mistakes so no issue if corrected. No need to make a drama out of it
  12. Premiership 2027 - Are You Interested?? Deffo no no. too weak of a product.
  13. As much as Coleman speaks common sense I’m pretty sure any new promotors can’t say or do or vote on anything for at least 2 years ! Such has the man at the top got a hold over everybody and because they can’t vote that means they can’t vote to get him out either, even with Coleman’s SGP power, when it come to British speedway. He can’t really do anything until Godfrey says he can after the 2027 season is finished
  14. You may mock, it's your right to do so but wait until the latest polish dictatorship of world speedway kicks in and the only riders left in this country will be very young or very experienced. The standards of the national league will be the norm.
  15. Wonder if Doyle will carry on with Aces after his 28 day contract expires? Not much of an off last night, packed his bags and out of pits during meeting, not that he’s any loyalty to Lemon or the Aces but if wasn’t something requiring medical/hospital attention riders usually stay in pits with their team mates. Suppose we’ll see soon enough
  16. If thats the case, I would guess we are looking at top 6 here to qualify.
