People who think speedway should just be about opening the throttle are clueless Monmore is different and requires a different skill set …. Bewley looks fast but is not riding the right lines but his natural ability gets him there There has been lots of close racing and plenty of overtaking and not just from mistakes Those who constantly slate Wolves track are just clowns who would rather we had no speedway I guess Ive seen dull meetings at all tracks it happens Then we have people slagging off the presentation…. It’s not the best but it’s better than no speedway and I think Scott is superb … Abbie is fine and I just think Kelvin is a bit lost on his own but that shows how good Pearson actually was Call yourself speedway fans and all you do is moan

What a rediculous comment, we need as many tracks as possible & can't afford to lose any.

Not sure why people are moaning I thought that was a good meeting. Good racing, track decent and a last heat decider. Been a great day of racing between these two teams. Both of these teams will be in the play offs.

the super heat

Can you ask the SCB about why they have revoked the sittingbourne track licence for 12 months suspended ?

2 good meetings. A great day of speedway. wolves might have picked up the most points but overall I say speedway was the winner. hope to god wolves return next season as bank holiday double headers are a great day

Damn will just have to go to the Speedway...then GP in the evening.

Kelsey Dugard released and Luke Harrison is fit to ride, thanks to Kelsey for all your efforts for the Comets , get well soon .

Not sure why you are being so defensive. Getting passed easily would be a symptom of not being good enough would it not? Every race we saw on Eurosport showed P'boro riders busting a gut to either stay in front or try and pass the rider in front if them. Its insulting to professional sportsmen to say that they dont care, aren't trying hard enough or don't have the balls for the fight. And that's my opinion thanks

The club shouldn't sit on it's a$$ and just admire itself though, they still need a new site asap.

Little talk going round the pits last night that we have secured the eoes for another year ! Good news if true

You pays your money and you takes your choice. He's either the saviour of British Speedway because he'll take any booking that's going, for any team, even late notice when his "own" teams meeting has been cancelled a few hours beforehand... Or, along with others, he's made a complete mockery of Speedway as a team sport in the UK. Driving hundreds and thousands away from the sport. That's bigger picture stuff. On this occasion as Captain of the Leicester Lions speedway team he should have been at the EoEA to Captain his team imo. The team that gives him the bread and butter of his earnings. There's never been a queue of foreign clubs wanting to sign him even when he was at the top of his game. He's (been allowed to) become a running joke within our sport and when he's riding for a club you don't follow its all very funny, when he's riding for a club you do follow and is the so called Captain of that team, patience starts to wear thin. Lions got lucky last night that Basso broke a finger nail and pulled out, otherwise it would have been a Panthers victory.

Thats a broken finger I feel, not going comment on if he could have continued to ride or not - but I have had broken fingers and also a thumb at various times playing rugby / football and I can assure you it is very painful and can restrict hand usage / co-ordination etc

Looks like the rule has possibly been changed. You definitely couldn't resign a rider you'd dropped previously, unless it was a like for like injury replacement, which this isn't.

I seen him heading into the female toilets as well ,before meeting started

Tonight was my first visit to the Showground and I thought that the racing was top notch. That was because I saw all riders having a real go and Bagpuss is right, the outcome was down to that little bit of quality on top of effort. Criticism of the Panthers’ riders is a little harsh. It was a little sad driving back to Leicester knowing that was likely to be my only visit to this track. Now that I’ve seen the place, I’m more frustrated than ever to see yet another(…..yawn….) great track disappear into the history books.

Monmore Green has been around for many many years, do "fans" expect the club to just abandon the stadium because the track is on the small side & riders who have only learnt to go flat out can't ride it?

Three meetings in a day for my family was Rayleigh for speedway in the morning, then stay for the Stock Cars and Bangers in the afternoon followed by a dash back to Wimbledon for the evening Speedway meeting. I have done an Arena Essex Speedway meeting followed by a Mildenhall Stock Cars and Bangers meeting in the evening which resulted in me commentating at Mildenhall that evening due to their regular commentator being ill and the promotor being very unhappy behind the microphone. EDIT - I also had a wonderful day with my parents going to Cradley for a USA v England Speedway Test Match on a Saturday afternoon followed by the BriSCA F1 Stock Cars at Coventry in the evening. Sadly it was our only ever visit to Cradley but it was certainly one of our maddest trips as I drove a Reliant Robin in those days.

Well I enjoyed that - slightly mystified that the adverts break just shows replays - also some odd gaps in the presentation but otherwise for a neutral it was an enjoyable close meeting - well done both sides I like them showing the odd races from Peterborough as well - and Scott was a decent expert in residence with his analysis.

Well, as a neutral, I thought it was a decent enough meeting. Racing wasn’t always thrilling but a close contest and a last heat decider. Seen a lot worse.

Picked a stone up from where I was stood on the back straight tonight and you certainly wouldn’t want that coming towards your finger at any kind of velocity

I don’t know why Rob Godfrey gets a bad press Scunny made two changes to the side , the rider they brought in scored 5 pts iN 5 meetings so he made another change and I’ll guarantee the other 8 promoters in the league would have done exactly the same

Pickering put a picture on his Instagram yesterday of him in different team's race suits, I assume that's what is being referred to. I took it as a joke. If as suggested he isn't going to be fit for a month then he can have no issues with bring temporarily replaced. Which I don't think he has anyway!

Job completed

I remember when Berwick won the 4's in 2012 Lee Complin riding with a bust hand different mentality
