I think you couldn't be more wrong. Lions win.

Thank you. Very Kind.

Will be going to this one. What's ther parking like ?

include former Wolverhampton Wolf Magnus Karlsson. And no it has nothing to do with farming.

What does it matter. He's gone. rides for a team in Lincolnshire I understand.

They can probably win at Rye House, and I would also say run Scunthorpe very close. All is not yet lost.....Keep the faith.

James Sarjeant good choice . Good luck Mr Branford.

I first saw Branford ride for Redcar at Sheffield a couple of seasons ago I think. I can't remember what he scored, but he did look quite promising at that stage. Since then I've seem him ride rather a lot and he does appear to have lost his mojo somewhat. I'm sure he is trying his best, but the Leicester track is a difficult one to master.

Here you go, hope it helps. SHEFFIELD Speedway would like to clarify the circumstances behind the departure of Richard Hall from the club last Thursday with the following statement: On the afternoon of Friday July 19 we were informed by Richard’s father that he would not be at Rye House on the 20th, a sick note was not submitted until we were on route to Rye House the following day. This note declared Richard unfit for work for 7 days which prevented him riding until Friday July 26 - this of course ruled him out of Team GB last Thursday and was communicated to the Team GB Manager and Richard on Monday July 22. The Sheffield and Glasgow promotions met at Rye House to discuss the possibility of extending the loan of Andre Compton at a time when Simon Stead, Joe Haines, Damien Koppe and Richard Hall were all missing through injury and a decision was taken not to extend the loan. Richard’s injury had also caused a withdrawal at Newcastle and he had informed us that he was struggling to cope with the tighter circuits consequently a decision was reached to rest him bearing in mind the forthcoming fixtures at Newcastle, Edinburgh, Plymouth and Ipswich. Andre Compton was not available to be included in a team change request until Thursday July 25, this was submitted with the following reason given, “Richard Hall’s performance hampered by a recurring shoulder injury, we reserve the opportunity to re-introduce Richard once fully fit”, this is a direct quote from the official application form. Permission was subsequently granted, circulated electronically by the authorities to clubs at 15.48 and seen by us at around 17.00, the time that Richard would be expected to be on route to Owlerton. It has subsequently transpired that a source close to another club breached the confidential nature of the document and chose to confirm the team change on a well known internet forum between 18.00 and 19.00 prior to Richard’s arrival, we were not aware of this until the following day. On Friday July 26 we received a continuation sick note for a further four weeks

Just in case there is any confusion. Today: Sunday; Heavy thundery rain with localised downpours at first. Windy for a time. Becoming drier and brighter through the morning to leave sunny spells and a few showers for the afternoon. Maximum Temperature 24 °C.

The weather forecast is horrible. What do you expect them to do, perhaps you might prefer it to get to 8 heats and abandoned with no refund. A bit of slack needed here I think.

The Weather forecast don't look fantastic

Looks like being a good one. I'm looking forward to it. I think the Lions will be to strong for the Tigers.

That wasn't the question was it .

I thought Peterborough wouldn't allow their rides to double up.

If that is the case then I agree. What is the point of having Bjerre if he can't make half the meetings. Apparently David Howe is the guest on Saturday against Sheffield.

I think unless they make a smart move and bring in some decent replacements for the injured riders. Then I agree it will be difficult to make the top six. But, with the right riders they could win at both Rye House and Scunthorpe.

Kim Nilsson , Linus Eklof. Don't know about their availability or PL averages.

That would be the PLRC then.

Oh dear what a night. A combination of factors that combined to produce a truly dreadful evening. I'm sure popple said something like the rider in the blue gate helmet & mentioned the midland defense league. Which should have been the midland development league. Oh boy, I won't even mention the racing.

He struggled while guesting for Leicester at the weekend. But he is a trier, think he is very low on confidence. Good luck to him.

No Kauko Nieminen. No Ashley Birks and No Jari Makinen. Be surprised if Simon Nielson is there. Sergey Darkin ( The Russian Rocket ) is there so is Ricky Ashworth. Oh and the sun will be shining.

I wouldn't think it was copyrighted or anything. far to expensive

Don't ask that. You'll only confuse him.

It was a long one that's for sure. And yes me, along with my mate, left before the end. First time ever and I started going to speedway in 1971. We also had a massive delay at Leicester the night before. So a bit of a slow weekend all in all. I enjoyed the racing but obviously lost a bit of interest once Leicester bit the dust. On the plus side I have to say the guys on the Mic were very good. Probably the best I've heard at any speedway meeting.
