  1. Past hour
  2. Today
  3. I actually thought it threw up some interesting racing. Again it looks better being there to see it live rather than on tv. The control some of those lads had for their experience level was superb. Especially as it’s the first time most of them had riden Foxhall competitively. Thir attitude & willingness to attack the track certainly shows up some of the pro riders attitude.
  4. Yesterday
  5. The only other track I've heard Glasgow fans moan about is Armadale and they've been moaning about it for years win, lose or draw. To be fair many still go to support the team even though they know its not proper speedway
  6. Both stands sold out, I'm buzzing. Arrived early and you should be able to get a seat on the back straight cos it's gonna be mobbed. Hopefully the racing shows everyone how it's done.
  7. The guys who are high 30’s in age must be breathing a sigh of relief that they don’t have to worry about the future of speedway! Speedway in Poland over the next few years will start to decline due to riders rinsing the clubs for money and it’s finally showing that clubs can’t sustain it. I heard one U24 rider wanted 1 million zloty to sign for stal, not naming anyone direct, but stal quickly said this shows the mindset of riders and what they think they can demand, and no the rider in question wasn’t someone worthy of 1 million zloty!
  8. Tai’s story is being sold with SGP not British speedway next year 😉
  9. How you including Rushen in the championship level riders? He doesn’t ride in the championship 😆
  10. The meeting was abandoned due to curfew. The pairs race does not officially stand, although Kev on the centre green said Ipswich will recognise the result. Cooper was who most people went tonight to watch let’s be honest and he didn’t disappoint, best moves made by him and best bike control when he almost ended up on the stock car track. To finish 2nd only to a Premiership rider isn’t a bad nights work. I’m sure Mr Louis will have his eye on him. Probably a crowd of 200/300? The back straight stand was almost empty with everyone choosing to stand on bends one and two which is normally underneath the cameras, or in the smaller start line stand, I was there so can’t say how it looked on TV. Ipswich held the best 2025 crowd last week (including Manchester SGP), tonight was more like our equivalent crowd for SoN 😂
  11. With all this breathtaking speedway will there be anyone conscience to see who wins? 👀🤷‍♀️
  12. In a pairs the one rider left would score 4 points the 2nd pair would get 5 points, yes robbing the fans of one race, but was about 22.10 when the heat ran, Ipswich might have a curfew
  13. Glasgow fans moaning about another track? Well i never. However did the sport cope until the panacea racetrack at Springburn was born? Some of the Tigers -appear to have become the self-appointed protectors of ‘proper speedway’. They need to get over themselves a bit.
  14. Last time I walked past your vehicle at Hi Edge you were trackside with your Brother with a bag of Werthers Originals on the dashboard😉You never wound down the window to offer me one🤔
  15. Maybe that is the way Speedway is going right now, unfortunately.
  16. Awarded before 1 lap completed! Farce! What happened to having to finish 4 laps?
  17. Bear in mind if there was one big league those in the line up tonight would be the 2nd strings and reserves......
  18. Maybe those are the reasons why the county championship gets little to no media coverage these days with only the occasional match shown on Sky Sports these days.
  19. Yes you are right and all second half meetings should be using these riders. Take it for what it is, which is those trying to make a way in the sport. It has costs supporters nothing if you are watching the stream so I don’t see an issue. For the purist who only want league racing it is not for those followers. Credence for Ipswich and the mentors who have been on site offering help and advice and putting the meeting on. No different to some of the meetings in Poland with the junior riders. I really do not get those who criticise this level but each to their own.
  20. Trouble is there is a disparity between the riders …. 7 riders who ride at championship level including Rushen and the rest out of their depth which makes it a poor spectacle Mulford shouldn’t be riding either Poole v Glasgow was shocking you can’t compare a league match to an individual where the field is anything but level
  21. Is this goodbye to Abi? There’s always a silver lining.
  22. Let's be honest though this is pretty pish poor Speedway, yes I know it's good to give the kids a chance and they're all giving it their best efforts etc. I've been trawling through last night's Poole topic while watching this and quite frankly the Speedway tonight is no better than last night and everybody on that topic has gone into meltdown! What's on offer tonight really should be 2nd half stuff (at all senior meetings)
