Heat nine and we witness the first pass beyond the first lap. Is this sort of issue even a topic of discussion with British speedway’s powers that be, or are they fully focused on merely surviving? We’re getting battered here, so I’m conscious this may come across bitter, but you can’t hide from reality. Stene Pijper, God love him, should not be in this meeting. He’s nowhere near it.

It’s 19 5 to Comets

Support it or lose it !!! Would rather go to the speedway than drink chemical beer lol

The track certainly does not have the “outside line” this season compared to last season and is a lot slicker.Probably the riders preferred prep.

What’s the script with replacing Max Perry this afternoon? Are there any restrictions in place for replacing a 2.00 rider or one on such short notice? If not and with all due respect to the young man, Stene Pijper is drastically out of his depth and will not score a point today, barring excisions and/or mechanical gremlins. There’s an entire NDL. Surely there are better options.

Don't think Harris ever choses gates for heat 1.

Did Kings Lynn and Oxford say the riders were withholding their services?

BSPL are clearly doing what they are expected to do -- promoting, 'acting in the best interests of the sport' by posting the fight as entertainment Referee reported both riders to SCB, who will doubtless take action in due course, penalising the riders for 'bringing the sport into disrepute' Two separate organisations

Oh, shut up, will you?!😂 Only joking. Whether it’s heat one or fifteen, a track can be prepared for racing. This hasn’t been, to the extent you’re even giving it a miss. I wouldn’t pay to watch this live either. Take note, @CTD26.

I can only assume you had a bad upbringing, given you deem it appropriate for your first interaction with a random person to be ”oh shut up”.

Been the same the last few weeks, presumably at the request of the riders. It's why I'm not there today, out on the dirty beer as it's more entertaining 😁

No flashing lights on the Worky track equipment... 2 league points fine and award the match to Glasgow?

Can’t believe Harris didn’t take 1&3. it always been like that at Worky at the start of the meeting.2&4 don’t work at start of meeting

Oh shut up twining will you. It’s the first 4 races, you’ll find it’s like this at the majority of tracks. The only one of your riders who had a go was flint and if it wasn’t for Tate riding hard and intelligently, he would have got passed.

This is painful. 1. We’re getting destroyed. 2. This sandpit of a track is a joke. Woeful racing. So poor. This does the sport no good whatsoever.

Thanks tjhat is super. Tigers will need to dig deep!

BSN do a live scorecard, but I’m not sure if you can see it without a membership: https://watch.britishspeedway.co.uk/watch/b89d6735-7d79-4c24-bc71-6350890c3aa4

Updates says 197 viewing, but I can't see it either?

The Sun newspaper running a fight night story, its a shame it takes something like this to get publicty but any publicity is good publicity.

Is there any updates for this meeting?

David is right. I don't know how much input he has on team building, or if Rob has final say. It was clear to everyone at the start of the season that the team was mediocre and would not be contenders. I have a lot of respect for Rob and what he does at the EWR ,but his major failing this year was being too loyal to last years team. He also took a massive gamble on bringing back Worrall after a year out and the Kennedy brothers (one obviously never ridden in UK ). Lambert sorry to see him struggle, but a year too far for him. Unfortunately Luke, the only one doubling up , has faded since joining Kings Lynn. Jake needs a better tuner since he has been fantastic on the bends, but constantly easily passed on the straights. Connor has been consistent but should have kicked on more. Gone are the days when several riders would offer their bikes to a struggling rider, its sad but no longer much team playing , just individuals looking after themselves.

Expecting another Glasgow away win here.

Possibly the worst four laps of speedway ever witnessed, then all four riders go straight back to the pits, not a single acknowledgement of the fans. Great advert for the sport.

Team definitely needs a shake up for next year there’s no question. But saying everyone bar Harrison is abit much. declan Kennedy I feel has done nothing wrong. First year in the Uk, bumped himself into the main body of The team into a heat leader berth. Seeing all the tracks for the first time when going away. Realistically should’ve been at reserve for the year. harrison has had a year in the league already prior to this year. mountain has been pretty solid all year. Only last few meetings abit below par but still always managed points. zaine has been okay, extremely good when was at reserve but struggled from time to time when at number 2 particularly on the away tracks. But he’s been off a bike and out of the sport for 2-3 years prior to this season and from what I know had minimal bike time. Did put a point and abit on his starting average. worrall has shown glimpses but just not a number 1 anymore. If he was to return I would have him at 5 and a true number 1 come in. as for lambert and Allen. Both been well off all year. Definitely time for a change for them and to move on. just my opinion and observation.
