If they had prepared a half decent track at the outset there would have been no issues. The ref surely has the final say on track conditions/suitablity. He’s just a bad loser.

Did a great interview, funny and obviously speaks very well. Friends with Mark Lemon who invited him along with Mark Webber.

They literally had the choice to make an offer to every/any Speedway rider on the planet except for the 35 that were already signed up!

I’m happy with the choice. Will see come Saturday night

Not only that, but with a business account the bank charge you to pay in cash, take out cash, every card transaction and every deposit or ATM transaction, so not even cash is free from bankers greed ( if it goes into the system) Currently with my business account if I pay in £1000 cash it costs me £7.50p, if I get outside the bank ( what bank is still open)and decide I do not need the £1000 cash after all and pay it back in , it costs another £7.50p, so end up £15 down for nowt, if we can all take cash, pay out in cash, we cut the greedy b****rds out ! Santander was the last bastion of free business banking, but no longer £10.90 admin charge every month, .90p every cheque deposit ATM or card transaction, and fees for paying in cash which now is largely done with your card at the post office as they have shut most of their branches !!

One league won’t make it better. What you really need to bring in new fans is two leagues which promotion and relegation. The sport needs jeopardy and punishment for finishing last.

It looks like the Polish fan who filmed the SGP 3 in Wroclaw and we could watch the whole meeting later on you tube, is in Sweden so every chance the SGP 2 round in Malilla will appear on his you tube channel almost certainly not live.

Batch up to the normal level I see with most points earned from beating non finishers. Foxes are never going to win carrying riders like that.

Sheffield missed Jack Holder but if the top flight adopted a squad system whereby clubs could name one or two other top riders who could cover for the very odd meeting here and there, say last night if MJJ could have rode, sure the cost won’t be cheap but he would still be getting roughly what you would have paid Jack per point anyway, it’s just the flight and arranging equipment that would have extra cost.

Up to THIRD in the league!!!!!!!!!! It looks like them or Ipswich for the last play off place!!!

Good bit of publicity came from the meeting, F1 commentator David Croft put a post on instagram, hopefully get more people through various clubs turnstiles.

considering the very very limited rider options available to them when forming st the very last minute, the team has proven to be extremely competitive. we lost heavily at belle vue and Leicester on the bank holiday Monday when ZAGAR broke his ankle in the morning snd we were already running with guests to 70% of n k iversen’s . we hsve taken almost every other match to a last heat decider. No one expected us to be any where near that competitive!!!! out problem is that we are a team full of inconsistent riders. It’s never the same rider each meeting ( apart from batchelor), but it’s always someone. hence Klindt having three bike failures tonight for instance. this team is one of the decent rider away from being a playoff team. Problem is, getting that rider. Let’s cross our fingers because if we do so quickly, we can still make the playoffs.

They are rock bottom and have won one match all season. If you call that competitive then good luck to you.

Tbf to kurtz. Heat 1 norick took him out bend 1 when on a 5-1 He was decent in his next 3. But engine blew on run to line in 13 so didn't expect him to come out

Actually the team has been competitive more often than not, rarely get beaten by a lot, but unfortunately are getting beaten a lot.

That's a random take. I don't think any 'World Class' rider wouldn't sign on the basis of who rides when they're not there. Sheffield's home stats are also showing that Jack being missing shouldn't effect the result that greatly. Jack has averages less than 8.00 so far at home in 2026 & tonight the covering riders managed an 8.00 average. Sheffield was 10 up after 10 and 5-1'd heat 15. Only heat 13 the result could have been different but with that being possibly the strongest heat in a meeting, winning isn't guaranteed. It is an absolutely terrific result for the Stars and some credit should be given to them for turning around a 10 point deficit with 5 heats left. To do that away from home, especially at Sheffield, was an incredible turnaround.

This league is pants, and the sooner it's back to basics and one league the better. All I will say is congratulations must go to Lynn on a 60 year wait for a first ever win at Sheffield.

Mostly Poole fans having a go at other teams, been happening for years, it's not right but SOME Poole fans make a rod for their own backs and then moan when the boots on the other foot

That's exactly what it is, nobody cares, especially about British Speedway. Rider's who have decent contracts in Poland see British Speedway as pocket money, it's no longer 'a wage'. Do folk through the gates even cover riders salaries now or is Sponsorships the main provider? Lap of honours, do they serve a purpose now anyway when fans can't hang over the fence for high 5s anymore? That was a pathetic thing to ban. One of the very last things in the sport that had that close interaction between fans & riders.

On the face of things, his score tonight looks half decent but in reality , it was far from so being. he got a very lucky two points in heat 7 when two riders suffered machine problems. Managed to go from first to last twice and was passed far too easily to lose points in other races which was very very frustrating when he appears to switch off on the last bend to allow Kurtz to pip him. how odd that every time he gets overtaken, he shows no fight snd is always looking down at his bike as if to look for an excuse there, rather than admit he has no fight, no desire and in my opinion, no interest in the teams results.

It will happen and very soon in my humble opinion. I have a sneaky feeling there might even be a surprise departure before to long . Nothing more than a gut feeling but, a strong one.

First time visit and this is my observations. Firstly, why is there no signs anywhere directing you to Northampton Shaleway. Driving along the Bedford Road(A428) towards Braefield, where you turn right into Horton Road there should be a big sign pointing the way. Not just for Speedway, but what about the Stocks who get far bigger crowds. Parking was easy and organised. Once in the Stadium, the Burger Bar could of done with a third person serving. Prices were a lot cheaper than i have been paying at many Cricket Grounds this summer. Long queues for the bar(on a hot night) and again they could of done with another person serving. The crowd was bigger than when i went to Belle Vue last week. I'd guess 1,500-2,000. Racing was ok but mainly follow the leader after the 1st/2nd bends. Why was the track not watered more often. After heat 4 & heat 7 the tractor graded but no water put down. By heat 9 things were getting uncomfortable with the dust, apart from being on my hair & skin, it was starting to make my eyes sting. At interval after heat 10, track was watered and rest of meeting was bearable with minimal dust. Not to many problems getting out after meeting ended. Overall though, an enjoyable evening and i would attend again, but not on a regular basis as i live 70 miles away. Was told they are putting a roof on the stand in the close season and only other thing is could they not have a scoreboard, for those that don't fill programmes. Surprised there isn't one for the Stock racing.

Maybe but I think it’s sour grapes from our manager We was 6 points up after 11 heats and if kemp hadn’t have fallen in heat 11 Leicester could not have used a tac sub in heat 12 Is Hurry seriously blaming Dickson when after 11 heats we was 6 clear!???
