  1. Past hour
  2. In an ideal world I guess, two would come up from the Championship and then, say someone like Mildenhall, would go into the Champ, leaving two divisions of 8? Twice home, twice away Plus KO Cup
  3. I’m not a Belle Vue fan but you have to admire their planning. This team would have been more or less signed up before the end of last season had finished. The fact that other teams had the same opportunity as everyone else in the same time factor and failed to act is down to their own shortcomings. I have no doubt that the Ipswich situation would have been known well before Xmas and that the new owners have picked this team thinking they would be competitive. You can’t say Belle Vue have won an easier league just because Ipswich were hampered by takeover. Had Ipswich signed Doyle halfway through and then Bewley gets injured the story would have been different. It’s not luck that Belle Vue are the best team this season. They would have had a long term strategy and now this is paying off.
  4. Ipswich fans are embarrassing themselves with their sour grapes, was the title won by the lauded team of the Gollob, Louis era that totally steam rolled the league that year worthless as no other club could compete with them? There might have been more clubs in the league but none were close to that side. For gods sake we put a team together that many said would fail, Cook, Kildemand, Blodorn and the reserves seen as weak links, a long tail to accommodate the top two. They stepped up simple. Sheffield could still easily win the play offs as they can go well round the NSS and traditionally we struggle round their place. If we dont win the final a lot of posters on here are going to look really stupid.
  5. which idiot said this, or did you just say it to sound like your making a point. name the one who said this.
  6. That was great entertainment though if both were let at it down in the pits after there would of been only one winner and wouldnt of been Emil. Whether Cairns was right or wrong , being a knob or not, the sport desperately needs new fans and stuff like this wont do any harm.
  7. Yeah maybe they think Scott will score more then the 3 points R/R would have got from Harrison's rides (Pickering winning his ride the others trailing in last)
  8. Today
  9. Yes, I was justing pointing out under different circumstances I would have fancied our chances.
  10. She definitely got heat 12 wrong, Kerr getting a warning, when he was the only one who didn't move
  11. Bet 365 go Lambert 11/4 Zmarzlik 3/1 Kurtz 9/2
  12. Jody’s not the type to get ahead of himself, and he won it 5 days ago, had 2 meetings and your expert opinion is such! Give your head a wobble you dick
  13. A bit of handbags in Heat 8, but can anyone explain if KYLE NEWMAN was in talks with that halfwitt TURNBULL, who is the worst ever Referee, how she managed to get the rerun underway ???? BSN showed NEWMAN in the Phone booth, then BSN showed the start of the rerun .
  14. I think the shame is the Bates thought we won't try/spend to get someone in once Jack was injured as theres a 66% chance we will finish in the top four and only other team with a genuine world class number one over here will finish in the bottom two and we can use him for possibly three matches end of year. Now given they seem to want out and have no doubt poured six figures plus in over the years I can understand there reluctance to spend and continue on the cheap but for the loyal fans its not really a great outcome who have been asked to stump up the same money at the gate every week for a substandard product.
  15. Jenkins is unavailable (becoming a father) , He's not even riding for Berwick this weekend.
  16. Didn’t realise Mulford had to jump start his bike after their exchange because Cairns pulled his cut-off cord.😂
  17. Well, I've seen Will Cairns a few times, and while he might wind up the opposition, he hasn't done anything to actually endanger them. Unlike his buddy Coops who, on his two visits to Berwick has succeeded in knocking off/bringing down (pick your phrase) Peter Kildemand and Jye Etheridge (twice) in the same race and -- in the worst example of his over-enthusiasm -- Reid Battye in a horrible move. Earning two exclusions and a slap. All deserved. Of the two youngsters, Will seems to be more in control of his actions
  18. Probably this. Richard Coleman was quoted in the Speedway Star a few weeks back that there were no guarantees that Belle Vue would be hosting both British Grand Prix’s next year.
  19. Jody Scott for Harrison and Hook back according to the star. Glasgow gone favourites, if Scunny had Jenkins and R/R I would have have fancied their chances. Scunny could really have done with Hook been out for the year, coming back in at this stage of the season is far from ideal.
  20. Belle Vue have had it easy this season with the other teams being hugely weakened and they have took advantage Lets look at the big 4 from last season Belle Vue replaced Lidsey with Kildemand and Mulford with Cairns … weaker Leicester lost Fricke and Becker replaced by Dan T and Morris then lost probably the best reserve in the league …. Much weaker Sheffield lost Morris replaced by Killeen and then lost their number one and could not replace him … much weaker Ipswich lost Emil Doyle Ellis and Dan T replaced by Lawson Nicholls Musielek and Pedersen …. well well short of last season …. Proving by how comfortable we was against Belle Vue at home last season compared to this For Belle Vue fans to not say the league is weaker this season is a joke as the changes I’ve posted above show that clearly … although the injury to Holder was an enforced issue not a promotional choice Belle Vue deserve credit for persevering with Blodorn Cook and Tate riders who fly round the NSS but season after season pretty poor away from home ..and for being unlucky in losing Bewley but getting Doyle quickly … But to say the league this season is tougher than last is just not true …. Once we saw how poor 3 of the teams were then it was down to only Sheffield and Leicester and the Holder injury/ loss of fricke and Howarth … means Belle Vue will be champions unless they bottle it
  21. Name me one side other than Belle Vue that's spent money during the season to improve their septet in order to overcome the problems they've faced just to mount a title challenge on BSN?
  22. IMO championship on a Saturday evening would be perfect. I went to Mildenhall on Saturday and saw some great racing in the Nora set up but once a season is enough for me as it’s generally the same 12 riders every meeting with a different race jacket the following week. if it was full of young up and coming talent I’d feel differently but it’s often riders who have been reserves at ndl level for years
  23. Unless averages are immaterial for the reserves similar to rising stars this year? A points limit for 1-5’s, then two under 21 riders.
  24. I’d hold fire and wait and see because those Polish articles are not always factual. Last winter they were saying there would be a one over eight rule in the Premiership and Belle Vue would have to release one of Kurtz or Bewley and that never happened.
