Zmarzlik won both !! Think I will look at Doyle + Vaculik e/w. -
Oxford vs King’s Lynn - Thurs April 25th
Hackett replied to SpeedwayFan91's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Spires with a handy guest in scott Nicholls. Bad nights for Wright , Harris and more worryingly Janowski again. Tungate maintaining his excellent form. Expected the Stars to get pumped but looks like a decent effort especially by Musielak. V -
Birmingham's results are no surprise. Prior to the season starting most had said the team was the weakest and they were fortunate to have Nicholls as guest as the Premiership started. That certainly worked in their favour, as riders got up to speed at the start of the season. Unfortunately I can only see the situation getting worst at Perry Barr, it will be interesting on Monday to see how they get on in the televised Eurosport meeting against the Aces strong top 4 - Kurtz, Lidsey, Bewley and Cook.

Speedway of Nations 2024
Hackett replied to a4poster's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
SoN - Really in the balance for me. We were planning to go to the SoN2 / Final (Fri + Sat) - 3 adults and a 14 year old. Hotel is £450 for the two days , SoN £380/£245 approx depending on whether standing or sitting. Not included return train from London and then of course food and drinks over the weekend. So for a weekend in Manchester, all in probably looking at £1000+ I will see what the kids want to do BUT personally I would rather spend more and go to Torun for a SGP. When I first saw the cost I don't think they will be needing the temp stand on bends 3/4 -
Speedway of Nations 2024

Wont be at the Crucible for much longer. Sounds like Hearn has sold his soul to the Saudi's = All in the manner of business of course. -
The British Final 2024 will be on a Saturday night. From the British Speedway website. British Final will take place at Belle Vue’s National Speedway Stadium on Saturday, June 8. British Speedway is delighted to be able to confirm the prime summer date for the major event, with the move to a weekend evening staging likely to be warmly welcomed by supporters. Prior warning the ParkLife Festival is on in Manchester that weekend and the hotel prices are similar to Cardiff. I wonder with a full season in British Speedway and with the event a month before the SoN whether Tai Woffinden will make a return.

Glad Kemp has got a spot for '24. He seemed to mature a little last year at Scunthorpe and in his PL appearances hopefully he can continue on the upward curve. Interesting to read he was happy to miss Championship as he wanted to concentrate on Poland but then was talked round by Dickson.

That could be a long season for the Gladiators with those 5 riders. Looks like a team of second strings at best - appreciate that Barker + Bowtell are able to put decent scores at home but that looks woefully short. Happy that the Thompson Twins have a Championship spot as they both seem to find themselves being the fall guys when changes are made. Plymouth fans at least you have got a speedway team.

Think the Belle Vue side is pretty solid. Brady Kurtz, Dan Bewley give you the two out and out heatleaders. Jaimon Lidsey has progressed season to season and offers a strong option at 3rd heatleader. Norick Blodorn has plenty of Premiership + NSS experience. Was impressed with the Connor Mountain on the occasion I saw him at the British Final. Connor Bailey is developing and will contribute at home at reserve and Ben Cook was excellent last season if he can continue his development the Aces will be competitive. Not as immediately impressive as the Sheffield Tigers but can see them being ultra competitive again.

Clarke Osborne is nothing more than a parasite.

Ipswich Witches 2024 serious team predictions
Hackett replied to SpeedwayFan91's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Whoever your loyalty is with it is just great to see Sayfutdinov racing in Britain again. Sheffield is the team to beat but Witches look pretty strong if Rew + Jenkins can maintain their development. -
SGP venues for 2024

Yep - I noted that as well. Let us hope that is true. -
Ipswich Witches 2024 serious team predictions
Hackett replied to SpeedwayFan91's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Think most in speedway would want to see Sayfutdinov back in British Speedway next season if the format allows. Cetrtainly Warner Bros Sports will do. -
Educate me - why does Zmarzlik get faster as meetings progress?
Hackett replied to Jonimac's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Could do with a prime Gollob / Rickardsson / Crump also. Nicki P was box office and was the reason he was so doted at Eastbourne Eagles. Out and out #1 was a hard rider and wanted to win. He probably saw the opportunity that the angry man bed persona could make him box office or more money. From experiences of my family bumping into him at Cardiff he seems a very open and polite imdividual - Polar opposite to his mantra once in kevlars.
