  1. Past hour
  2. Taking half a meeting to adapt to track conditions isnt acceptable at the business end of the season. Did the Glasgow riders mis-judge the track walk, did they ask for it to be ultra slick, did they even know what they were getting beforehand? Whatever it was it can't happen again, we have some hefty points deficits to claw back in our next two home meetings. Its all very well bringing in Andy Meredith to boost our GP or SGP2 chances next season but if it is affecting our core product its a no for me. Lets prep the track to suit our riders wherever possible, its brings the best out in them and allows the racers to shine.
  3. Really important that the reopening meeting goes smoothly. it needs to start on time and run at a decent pace. Both teams are running R/R so many riders will need extra time. get tonight right and mildenhall will thrive however if we go back to four hour marathon I fear it will be the final nail. im looking forward to seeing some racing tonight and I wish everyone the best of luck.
  4. Do wonder if Pijper could have been given extra rides, he might have been given heat 12 ,possibly to beat Thompson? Heat 14 to replace Zischke? ( two zero’s from three rides ). Probably why I’ve never been a T.M.
  5. To be fair, that was your choice, I attended every year and always paid for the cheapest ticket available and never had anything other than a perfect view of the action. I'll say that after WBD took the event over, it seemed to be a lot less fun.
  6. Yes extremely childish. He had just won a fantastic race on the last lap and was full of adrenaline. Do you not expect a rider to celebrate ? Admittedly he was poor for the rest of the night, but maybe he knew that himself and he was trying to psych himself up.
  7. The Premiership is in a mess,looking for get out clause.
  8. Today
  9. A lot more than that for seats on the straight close to the action purchased on early deal basis. As we know the ticket pricing escalated over the past years, the firework show diminished to a fizzle, No pre meeting or half time entertainment in the stadium which all contributed to a feeling that for the ever increasing cost of tickets the overall value of what was on offer did nothing but fall.
  10. It depends who you speak to. Race night is an issue. The preference is to keep Fridays. How strong that preference is varies a little. But at the moment, the Premiership does not have enough upside to mess with a setup they seem to be happy with (crowd numbers, mainly).
  11. I know we are forecast for rain, but hopefully we can fit it in before then! 😄
  12. Main problem is I don't know much about track prep but our track seems much slicker since Meredith took over as track man . That doesn't suit us since we have lost the ability to gate . But fair play to Redcar they are a solid side throughout and we got away with it last night to a certain extent
  13. 100 % agree,we have to do what’s right for speedway in Uk.Its pretty obvious we can’t compete with Poland.
  14. https://www.facebook.com/share/p/1BnkDiRiYN/?mibextid=wwXIfr yes
  15. Morris on his average is likely to be able to pick where he wants to ride, can't imagine any team saying no thanks on that average.
  16. The championship league hold all the aces,they stand together and they can control the way things go,I would love to regularly watch grand prix riders at poole but that's not going to be possible in british speedway anymore,need a structure that works for british speedway and that won't include gp riders,if bv and ipswich got to have them, then just have to race against each other
  17. I thought Jack Holder was excellent for Tigers, he didn't get the points for his efforts and left it all out on the track, not bad for a GP rider with an Ekstraliga final coming up to put that kind of effort in for a tin pot league championship. I've said before, I quite like his cocky arrogance when he's won a race, it gets a reaction from people.
  18. Link for Golden Helmet( Czech TV) tomorrow start time 11am UK time http://video.ucoz.lv/index/live_stream/0-5 TVP Sport Poland are also showing it live online- might be available to watch or might be GEO blocked https://sport.tvp.pl/88958944/zuzel-zlata-prilba-na-zywo-transmisja-online-wyscigu-live-stream-21092025-gdzie-ogladac
  19. Would agree only thing I see is they are heavily involved in Sponsership and are prominent people in the Management of the sport now.Race night is a major stumbling for Glasgow and Poole + financially viable if having to pay big money for Major Heatleaders.Hope Championship tells them where too go.Rider availability and guests needs sorted out though.
