David is right. I don't know how much input he has on team building, or if Rob has final say. It was clear to everyone at the start of the season that the team was mediocre and would not be contenders. I have a lot of respect for Rob and what he does at the EWR ,but his major failing this year was being too loyal to last years team. He also took a massive gamble on bringing back Worrall after a year out and the Kennedy brothers (one obviously never ridden in UK ). Lambert sorry to see him struggle, but a year too far for him. Unfortunately Luke, the only one doubling up , has faded since joining Kings Lynn. Jake needs a better tuner since he has been fantastic on the bends, but constantly easily passed on the straights. Connor has been consistent but should have kicked on more. Gone are the days when several riders would offer their bikes to a struggling rider, its sad but no longer much team playing , just individuals looking after themselves.

Expecting another Glasgow away win here.

Possibly the worst four laps of speedway ever witnessed, then all four riders go straight back to the pits, not a single acknowledgement of the fans. Great advert for the sport.

Team definitely needs a shake up for next year there’s no question. But saying everyone bar Harrison is abit much. declan Kennedy I feel has done nothing wrong. First year in the Uk, bumped himself into the main body of The team into a heat leader berth. Seeing all the tracks for the first time when going away. Realistically should’ve been at reserve for the year. harrison has had a year in the league already prior to this year. mountain has been pretty solid all year. Only last few meetings abit below par but still always managed points. zaine has been okay, extremely good when was at reserve but struggled from time to time when at number 2 particularly on the away tracks. But he’s been off a bike and out of the sport for 2-3 years prior to this season and from what I know had minimal bike time. Did put a point and abit on his starting average. worrall has shown glimpses but just not a number 1 anymore. If he was to return I would have him at 5 and a true number 1 come in. as for lambert and Allen. Both been well off all year. Definitely time for a change for them and to move on. just my opinion and observation.

British Speedway official TwitterX had already posted it so surely no further action will be taken... there certainly shouldn't be!

Fair enough, I will say though you did open up by saying "if" Scunny return next year... as there are already rumours surrounding many tracks in this country I was quite shocked to hear you use the word "if" regarding Scunthorpe and I bet a fair few others were too. As regards talking yourself out of a job, history suggests that it is not a good idea to question a club owners attitude during an interview, it tends not to end well for the interviewee 😂 Fair play for your honesty though 👏 Not sure of your situation with Dougy, but if he had to make a choice between riding UK and not riding UK next year would you still be working with him if he chose the latter?

OK, edit that out, I just found him in the SEC3 lineup a few hours later. That's a very sloppy programming ballsup, a rare kid who's good enough to win the U19 CShip has to choose between the two.

Anyone with insight as to why Parnitskyi is not competing?

OUR reserves probably answers that question

BSN is a commercial enterprise independent of BSPL/SCB and they don’t have the right let alone the power to fine anyone. The fight should have boosted their business and they will be grateful for it. I suspect the ruling bodies will see it differently as they seem to have lost sight of what constitutes entertainment.

Interesting to see how Steve goes

Given the way they seem to be milking this for publicity, they'll have some real front if they decide to fine anyone for it!

For the Gladiators yes, still a centurions fixture to come next weekend

Pretty sure poole would still be for sale,notwithstanding he would have still been buying into a lease problem,must surely have been a better buy??

Tbf I tend to waffle and lose track but in what way have I talked my way out of a job? Pretty sure what I’ve said was correct, and I include myself in that category, the club does need to change its attitude. Imagine my job with Ryan is reasonably safe so at least I have that to fall back on.

Shame,everything seems to be going well down there,good crowds and entertainment, with such a diddly league it has to be two home and away.

So season over for the Gladiators -, 23rd August 2025!!!! Wow....!

That's down to Plymouth not saying he's withholding his services surely.

Better admission charges too I wager!? (NB. So good to see the Poole 2025 thread providing a platform for Plymouth, Worky and other 'fans')!.............😚 PS> Happy Birthday to Tobias Thomsen today - doughnuts for his supper no doubt!!😂

I hope Vinnie can give it 100%, reports of broken bone/bones in one of his hands ?.

Good post.

With only 500 attending, even with a winning team, you would still not be hitting a huge 100% increase... And, even if you did, that would still be only 1000.. The bottom line is, the people of Birmingham, like so many other major cities in the UK, are just not that interested in Speedway...

Why hasn't he been banned this season? Ben Cook and Francis Gusts have had 28 day bans for putting Poland before their UK teams. Has Nicolai not just done the same?

WORKINGTON: 1. Troy Batchelor 2. Fraser Bowes 3. Tate Zischke 4. Jye Etheridge 5. Antti Vuolas 6. Jacob Hook 7. Vinnie Foord GLASGOW: 1. Chris Harris 2. Jason Edwards 3. Dan Thompson 4. Leon Flint 5. Kyle Howarth 6. Freddy Hodder 7. Stene Pijper Worky reserves SHOULD score well today, but Glasgow's top 5 is very strong, 50-40 away win

Charlie Wright did cruise round the circuit after the incident and was approaching Jake, Im sure to check he was OK and apologise, but Jake pulled Charlie of the bike which caused the fracas, but it all ended well with kisses at the pits.
