    When he was at Berwick he was a bit “over the top” with the nicknames ect,but he was very informative regarding the the sport and good filling in between races.

    Good News indeed.

    He certainly livened up a few second half’s at Berwick, they were more exciting than the main meeting at times.

    Newcastle 2020

    He certainly has upset a lot of people at a couple of his previous clubs.

    Newcastle 2020

    It was a good team on paper,but the Heat Leaders let you down ,especially Bjerre and Jorgensen.

    Poole Pirates 2021

    This 50k per club seems to be the figure.Here’s hoping some clubs don’t fall for it, just to keep the Top Flight afloat it could spell disaster IMO.
  7. What a waste of space Lasse Bjerre has become takes the p*ss virtually every season nowadays.

    Glasgow 2021

    Think you are correct,have seen members of the Edinburgh Promotion at most of the matches I have attended this season.

    Glasgow 2021

    Unless there is a dramatic return of Top Riders (which I doubt) don’t see any point of moving up,Would admission charges rise,that’s no- no.IMO
  10. Agree some great Speedway this season.
  11. Was replacing Paul not the right option though,whether you should have brought Paul back(if he was recovered from injury)was the only decision to be made. ps I don’t if he was fit or not. I didn’t really matter who topped the league. IMO Leicester done you a favour picking Redcar. Hard luck on Glasgow but they had good season and provided some great entertainment.

    Think most things in principle are decided long before AGM ,it’s mainly a rubber stamp job and deciding helmet colours for coming season.
  13. Lack of dirt as opposed to greasy IMO.If you watch the reruns on the big screen you would have seen that Rasmus picked up grip pushed him across the track same as Worrell coming out 2nd bend.That track looked hard packed to me and others around with no dirt, 3rdbend looked like an ice rink at the start of meeting.Cold weather probably didn’t help.Have seen some great speedway at Ashfield this season though.
  14. Any reason for him being unpopular? Just curious
  15. Also think there should be extra points on offer for reaching semi- final or final. Think a rider that reaches the final deserves something even if he finishes last.Generally the format is Ok .IMO
  16. Well done to Leicester, special mention to Ty Procter Ht8&12 his shoulder was obviously giving him some pain and Ellis Perks his Ht14 match winning ride from last to1st was sensational.Also sporting for Lawlor to clear the track when he fell in Ht 14 as Perks was behind the 2 Glasgow riders-at the time. Though the track prep was too slick and caught out the Glasgow riders more than the opposition.Tense stuff at the end though. Shouldn't throw objects at the riders though,naughty.

    Berwick, Sheffield and Kent.

    That 5-1 draw must be raking in the money

    Berwick, Sheffield and Kent.

    Hope Berwick have not fallen for another con-job like what happened in 1991.who is bank rolling this move if it happens? Mid week Speedway at Berwick will be a big gamble IMO. They won’t survive on crowds levels if they don’t increase dramatically. Are they renaming the Premiership to the Buster Chapman League. Though it was 1st April when I heard the rumours/or are they.
  19. You certainly need a big night from Nichols that could make the difference IMO.

    2020 CL

    Think we will just have to wait till AGM to see what shambles of self interest they come up with.
  21. Fromafar

    2020 CL

    Would agree if that is the case.
  22. Fromafar

    2020 CL

    It looks like self interest is still rife in the sport.
