  1. The meeting as a whole was well worth the watch, with amusing commentary keeping it interesting. Mixing the E Speedway and petrol bikes was a big mistake. A future for them is a reality, but they must be kept in a class of their own.
  2. Thanks for the information it is appreciated. Checked out the ARH Heathens Facebook pages, but does anyone know what or who are A.R.H. as cannot see what it refers to? If it is a sponsor, then it tells you nothing but would like to know what or who it refers to.
  3. Where can you access details of all the teams involved in the league and do they have websites or facebook sites for information regarding teams etc
  4. Can you please elaborate details of Cradley team
  5. Just remember who said it first

    New speedway clubs for fun

  8. How ridiculous is it that all these has been speedway stars express how they are training all these new and up coming speedway stars. All these ex riders and existing riders profess to training all the new and upcoming riders and they have enhanced their progression. Reality is the majority of riders have progressed through Scunthorpe Speedway at Wayne Carter training schools or AMSA with Gary O`Hare. It makes me sick that all these riders are employed by these so called Academy's who do nothing but live of everybody elses hard work. Take a long hard look at who actually does anything for British Youth Speedway and has no reward????

    Recently seen news of potential speedway in Weston Super Mare, is this a reality or dream?

    Bellle Vue Colts 2023

    For Jack, eventually it will happen. Too much pressure from expectations due to the fabulous career his dad had. Maybe a bit like Max Clegg, started off like a house on fire and not lived up to expectations due to everyone else's expectations. Possibly a good fit to ride together at The National Stadium and prove all the doubters wrong?
  11. Would Max Clegg fit the number 6 place. Solid rider and lots of experience.
  12. Had Ivan Mauger, Barry Briggs, Ronnie Moore or Jason Doyle not ventured to the UK to further their career aspirations, then potentially we would never have witnessed some of our speedway greats. At present speedway in the UK is in turmoil and struggling financially and a dire shortage of NDL riders capable of being competitive. What we do not need is every NDL filled to the brim with riders sliding down the scale into the teams, but yes realistically every team needs a level of experience to help and steer the youngsters. So after our Premier League was stripped of stars by Poland`s dictatorship why can we not help develop riders from the Commonwealth and give them opportunities. Surely the likes of Jacob Hook, James Pearson and George Congreve could be given the green light to ride in the NDL. However convoluted it maybe, Connor Bailey is riding, so good for him to have a team place and hopefully progression to higher levels through the NDL experience.

    In view what is happening to Sport in Coventry would now be the time for All Supporters of both Coventry Bees and Coventry City to come together United and Bulldoze through all, to make way for a purpose-built Stadium to house both and secure the long-term future of sport in Coventry?

    Of course, many have disposable income, many do not. They have at least worked for that money and keep adult children into their thirties who will not work. But I will not pay £20 for second rate entertainment from money grabbing riders who already and are playing the system and clubs.

    If the 1-7 had star quality in depth, then would understand the increase due to rider payment demands. But come on paying second string and second rate riders excessive money is not the way forward. In the present economic climate, looks like several Championship clubs will be joining the lemmings.

    Just remember, MONEY is the key to all. Helping British youngsters is not free of charge, but a golden ticket for all retirees once careers are done.

    NLRC - Scunthorpe, 25.09.2022

    It is a pity Jack Smith cannot ride like his dad. Complin rode a good hard race and did nothing wrong. Apart from abusing Lee after the race, Jack is still a novice.
  19. Well it has been years since we had some refreshing new commentators in speedway. Continually everyone goes on about the ageing spectators and a requirement for fresh new young ones to be introduced to the sport. With the Advent of the BSN speedway and Clubs live streaming of matches a fresh young batch of presenters and commentators have arrived. So stop bringing past old riders who cannot pronounce names, mix up riders and generally talk crap with poor presenters. The British GP would have been far more entertaining, presentable and acceptable ( irrespective of the track) with the presentation teams from Belle Vue and Scunthorpe

    Time to move on

    Only one who uttered an ounce of credibility was Jason Crump when he said seen worse tracks but just got on with it. Dangerous track....Now if Cardiff is not good enough I am sure Mildenhall can accommodate the British GP in 2023
  21. So, allegedly it was a FIM decision for Adam to progress to the British Final. Cannot argue if that is the case. But who made the decision to have Jack Smith as first reserve and Harry McGurk as second reserve? Surely in the grand scheme of promoting fairness and youth it should have been McGurk with either Mulford, Hagon or Ablitt?
  22. Typical money over what matters. The sport is dying and just to put the final nail in the coffin lets fill the pocket of someone who already has enough. Surely the new up and coming riders deserve more respect by someone who commands respect!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    UK speedway slowly dying

    Could not agree more, presentation is useless using too many meaningless ex riders commentating or seen in pits that no one cares about and they do not even know who the riders are and get everything wrong. Had to switch off on Monday after heat 6 due to the waffle.
  24. Just watched heat 6 and time to turn off. Jorgensen had a nibble at tapes, but why do riders have to refuel and faff with bikes (Tatum) If they have the tools timing change (Stead) Why do we have to put up with second rate guests as commentators lining their pockets at every conceivable event and causing chaos doing so. This is why speedway is in a downward spiral due to these parasites who actually believe they are doing a great job.
