  1. Past hour
  2. Harsh? Maybe, but he's had 3 matches, 12 rides and scored 3+1 where every point scored was as a result of an exclusion or faller. If he was on the pace, competing, you'd have to say yeah give him more time, but he's been a mile behind and nowhere near being competitive, I mean at Poole he was 1/4 of a lap behind after the first lap in the reserves race, and even at Plymouth he's been tailed off a long way. It would be harsh, but the best teams make tough decisions no matter how early on and while the spare points are there, we should be all over a stronger number 7 especially with this new Slovenian lad who is unlikely to produce the kind of points Tobias would have got us (at least early on). Trigger isn't pulling up trees but he'd definitely be a better option at this stage imo. We've 3 cup matches this week and assuming we don't make a change prior to those, if Spencer doesn't at least get competitive he's got to be gone before the league action starts.
  3. I thought this was an entertaining meeting, was impressed with Luke Harrison, Nathan Ablitt and Ryan Ingram.
  4. 1st cut 😲 I'm on me 3rd one and have had the scarifier on it 😄. I could cut the grass using that mini tractor,mower does it work 🤔
  5. As you well know there is scientific reasoning behind most things 😃 Finally getting my early spuds and onions in this week, you doing owt? , thought not 🤣 Speaking about lawnmower's. I got the old faithful out yesterday for the first cut and it wouldn't keep running for more than a few seconds 😩. I usually drain the petrol out of it following the last cut but didn't this winter . I took the air filter out to give it a wash, it was just disintegrating and wet with petrol. The old Honda 425HRB has been in the family a long time, I paid good money to get it serviced a couple of years ago, looks like they never changed the air filter though. Going to service it myself if I can get the parts so you will have to cut the centre green, it will finally be dry enough sometime this week considering the dry forecast, I'll tell Andrew your booked in 🤣
  6. Today
  7. That Northampton team is shocking. I read a few weeks back in the Star that they’ll need to keep an eye on performances and if need be, the other promotions may need to help them out. Well they need it already before a wheel is turned because this team is going to struggle winning a meeting at home let alone away!
  8. Why they don’t go back to just calling it the European cup I’ll never know. Calling it the Champions League when a club finishing 5th enters it is daft.
  9. Or, perhaps clubs abroad already know what we don’t and he’s lost whatever early promise he showed early on in his career? Was it solely the suspension that put clubs off or was it something else? We’re about to find out I guess.
  10. And its not exactly a Champions league as 2nd to 5th in the league table qualify for it.
  11. I’m still waiting to see this gung ho swashbuckling rider who scrapes the boards and stretches the throttle cable attempting to get around riders (his own words). The first couple of meetings all I’ve seen is an inside/mid track steady Eddie who looks content to hold the place he’s occupying. Now before anyone jumps on my back, of course it’s only two meetings in and he’s feeling his way in to British Speedway and getting used to things, but I’ll admit I was expecting a different style to what I’ve seen in the first couple of meetings. Perhaps today is the day? The wide open spaces of the NSS should suit him down to the ground.
  12. At the end of the day we only need a reserve that doesn't mean the best you can hope for in a heat is 3-3
  13. this clown could of been in a wheel chair, but he is still helping to prop up British speedway.
  14. Completely out of character for him, he’ll soon revert to type. And to think the bastions of British Speedway that only ever do things for the greater good of the sport, riders, and other clubs while disregarding their own ambitions and aspirations to do well, sacked a young British rider for this clown.
  15. His home scores of 6 and 10 so far this season may suggest a level above turd at home, we shall see
  16. Yesterday
  17. That was marking ya programme when they come off the last bend 🤣
  18. In spring and autumn, Berwickers go to the main stand (it was very full on Saturday) and in the warmer months tend to stand out in the sun. A trend that's been the case for over 50 years.
  19. I think Brennan will nick a point off one of them, but then he'll also drop a point to Cook. The wildcards in it all are Kildemand & Hellström Bängs. To hit 35 Witches need King to have a good night. Musielak won't trouble Bewley or Kurtz, should be good between him and the Aces engine room. Nicholls & Lawson might beat Cairns.
  20. Unfortunately looks like the lad had a bad crash at Buxton today, air ambulance called, probably due to remote location of track, hope it's not too serious
  21. That would be a good move, didn't expect the averages to drop, but best use the available points to strengthen up when they can.
  22. Have to disagree regarding crowd level. Looked very good ,be surprised if there are any bigger crowds during the season.Maybe if we are in the running for Silverware there might be.Personally thought it was an entertaining meeting,I’ve seen a lot worse.
  23. Kurtz and Bewley should be able to score a max each tomorrow without breaking a sweat.
