Do they never learn, thoughts with Edinburgh Speedway at this time. Cook won`t see the season out.

You probably won't see him against Edinburgh as he may have gone AWOL by then 😜🤣

Any rider can when they are on a rocket.

From his out of speedway job you know the thing that 99% of supporters want riders to have .

You probably won't see him against Edinburgh as he may have gone AWOL by then 😜🤣

It would also depend if that engine suits a particular rider. Riders will need an engine that suits their style, starting needs and the way they ride and what they want the charicistics of that engine will deliver for them.

So he's not going to Poole then. Phew!!!

Ricky Wells is American

I have always thought that and im no knocking the riders as you get as much as you can out of riding but lol yeah but the sport can not sustain this on current crowds and money in speedway, its really an amateur sport especially st championship level but run as a professional sport. Riders used to have jobs and then ride speedway but the vast majority now treat speedway as a full time job.

Im not so sure the pick goes on the order that they say it does, riders have a say where they want to ride, and I think there is more planning that goes into it than a simple 1 to 6 pick on where each team finished.

Knowing Neil, he will. 😄

The Belle Vue Trust provides an engine specifically set up for The NSS for their RS, previously it’s been an ex Kurtz engine. Whether it gets used is another thing and despite what most think a fast engine doesn’t ensure wins all in its own.

As Bomber said on 360 speedway there is not enough meetings for riders who only ride second division, more riders will end up retiring because its not worth it. Less meetings means you will see more throw away call offs because so many potential restaging dates.

When Dan wins a race around the NSS they normal play that polish song, I wonder now if they will change it to Abba? " Money, Money, Money " Only joking Dan.

You dont pay someone if they dont turn up for work,we hear the same every year from craig ,berwick, workington glasgow and others all have all fell for it.

Cook has good fuel sponser and yes any money they make is well earned and deserved, big risk especially at some rough tracks in

Just been on socials that the 1st signing is to be announced today 🤔🤔🔵⚪🏁

That's a totally different subject 😜😜. But like many Speedway riders they must get paid well in the season ,as a lot of the young riders are off to Australia for winter, a holiday and speedway, where's the money coming from ??

Jody Scott is well ahead of him that’s without question, he held his own this season. Apologies if my wording wasn’t clear I didn’t mean Freddy is “the one” of the 6 that can make the jump next season as it may have read suggesting he’s the standout. Just of the six I think he’s one of them that definitely could, of course all of them could but a couple of the others I think it’ll be a step too far at this stage.

Good to see Ben Whalley being given a chance. First Kiwi to ride for the Monarchs since Ricky Wells?

As ever the devil is in the details. I wouldn’t get too hung up on averages and stats for the rising stars. this was posted by @M.D In the Championship section “I think what people are not taking into account with Vinnie is his injury at Redcar in his first meeting of the season. He was on 4 from 3 and sitting on a paid win in his fourth when he lifted and hit the fence by the starting gate. It was a far more complex injury than people realise, he came back, as speedway riders do, not fully fit and playing catch up with riders who had been racing for a few months whilst he was out. He then was in the top 5 for Worky when he returned , a step up when not fully fit and playing catch up with race fitness. As fitness returned he picked up at the end of the season and whoever gets him next season will see a different rider”.

Edinburgh were actually one of the clubs he has left in trouble previously. The thing i can not understand is where the fella gets his money from as he has hardly riden speedway the last few year

Comets at the speedway show 🔵⚪️🏁😀

Fantastic team coming together! so who will be the last 2?

The rising stars won't make much difference to the meeting outcome... Their two protected races will mostly see them race each other for a point... If a team loses a meeting it certainly won't be the rising stars fault...
