Agree. Our reserves are no better than Glasgows. Cairns is either gate and gone or struggling to work out lines to pass. Starke is slow. Hodder could beat them both. Last week the track was slick and I think it will be again. Pirates will need their gating gloves on.

It'll be interesting to see how Glasgow go this evening against Redcar. Odd that there's no match thread on here for that one.

Yep, Oscar, the way he was going round the bends it wash hard to believe how young he was. Definitely one for the future.

This conversation should have started last year for 2026 and even then thats late, whatever is put forward which might even be a good idea its all too late. 2026 has already been decided and we must now all wait for what that will bring. The issue with the prem has been known for a long while especially regarding Birmingham not so with Oxford so whatever has been agreed between the promoters already i just hope its something refreshing and points in a direction of hope, not just another plaster on an open wound getting bigger

pooles riders all fit and firing, bottom end strength the factor .

Hoping we can retain the top stars and the fabulous entertainment they bring. Who can topple Sheffield off the top spot they have made their own with three tops in four seasons. Incredible to think the only time they didn’t top the table, they were worthy winners of the play off cup. The battle continues between the tigers and The Aces for team of the decade.

Very on the nose re the witches team building ethic. I particularly like the goodbye to “Mr Ipswich”. Don’t let the door hit your ass on the way out! Belle Vue are more a family and that is why most of the team have only ever ridden for Belle Vue with some for many years. Three finals and two wins in five seasons is proof it works for us but I get others attraction to a team basically generated by AI, however disconnected any success feels to fans. The only downside for us is we need to lose riders year on year and haven’t had the luxury to strengthen up as the weaker teams from last season could. It’s a method of distributing the trophies among other teams which is a fine idea but difficult to watch when riders you’ve massively helped along are aiding your downfall. The perennial race to the bottom our sport so admirers. In the UK Dan rides around 50% of his meetings on gate’n’go tracks and the only thing he’d learn elsewhere is how to gate consistently. I’m more than happy with the exciting Dan we have now, a rider that all but two (one of which is another Belle Vue rider) of the riders in the world would want to emulate. To suggest the NSS is holding back a riders development is bizarre, even for BSF given the amount of FIM medals amassed recently.

Yea blown engine Vinnie was absolutely gutted was talking to him Saturday evening in a local establishment

If you were there this afternoon you'll know what I mean, but 8 year old Oscar Berwick in the 125 class what a prospect, take a bow young man 😅

You really need to get a life d—head!!

If only Jack Millen and Kelvin Mullarkey were in the GP's...

And that just proves the point that there is no point in responding to you

Hadn't heard about this podcast, have downloaded all episodes and will give them a listen this week 👍

IF Bewley did move (don't see it personally if he's getting a testimonial) then it might not be anything to do with the track but simply the need for a fresh challenge and a change of club, sometimes that can be good for a sportsperson or what they feel they need.

Spot on lol … he wasn’t talking about the construction he was talking about the support and was around at the end chatting to all fans

You clearly are a guy with serious issues regarding Ipswich and ‘poaching riders’ let me put your hat on straight buddy Doyle… signed after Swindon closed .. you could have signed him Ellis… signed after Sheffield SACKED him … not poached … SACKED King.. Mr Ipswich Emil…. wasn’t signed from a British club … again Belie Vue could have got him Brennan… ah yes let go by erm Belle Vue who didn’t want to keep a promising young Brit and thought Blodorn would be a better option lol… had Isaias Birmingham Dan Thompson… was SACKED by Leicester… not poached..Sacked Your vendetta against who Ipswich have signed is borderline pathetic and wrong in every sense .. we have built this team and not poached anyone Any club could have signed Ellis or Thompson but didn’t and the stupidity of letting Brennan go when he was at Belle Vue was shown up massively this season when Belle Vue have riders like Blodorn and Cook who look like amateurs away from the NSS I don’t expect Bewley to leave but maybe just maybe he wants a challenge … wants to ride on a more challenging track that can help him develop more … he has big fast tracks in Poland and Ipswich can help him learn a tougher track If Bewley ever did move to Ipswich he knows how well the club is run and supported… arguably the best run and most supported club in the UK He always says how much he loves riding Ipswich ….. Ipswich don’t need to poach riders …. Riders want to come to us because of how the club is run Now run along and see if your club decide to sign riders who can ride away from home …. Maybe someone like a Tom Brennan??

I don't think of Nagel as a particularly good gater, but he's aggressive, perhaps a tad too much sometimes.

8 day rule doesn’t apply in the playoffs, so he is available to ride tomorrow, if he had ridden last night then he would of been unavailable tomorrow

You've proved my point. Speedway (and the others you mentioned) were not viable, hence they chose to redevelop the site. Wimbledon previously closed in 1991 for exactly the same reason. And both 1991 and 2005 were periods when Speedway was in better shape than it is now! There is absolutely NO chance of Wimbledon, Coventry, Swindon, or any other closed tracks being revived and the sooner these campaigners open their eyes and get on with their lives, tbe better. Everyone is getting excited about Buxton - that won't last the season for exactly the same reason. Speedway. Is. Not. Viable.

Any one else notice how many were using the outside on 3rd/4th bends something that has been missing most of season Love 250 racing so close and competitive Every rider in 500 and 250 class was on pace Some very good tidy 125 racers also Youth class really is good to watch if I'd have paid £30 for that I'd still be happy Track held up really well last track grade during heats spoiled last round it changed the track

Well he clearly wasn’t just talking about the podium they were standing on was he 🙄 it’s obvious he was talking about the supporters and the atmosphere around it. They weren’t supplied by British Speedway.

A small town in Northamptonshire!
