And Kurtz. That will come back to get you young man. It's a small circle speedway. Falling off like that will lose you a significant amount of credibility

Get that track ripped up and relaid. Absolutely disgraceful advert for this sport.

No way he should ride now

Easy for poole this. Starke at reserve is the clincher. Tungate is pretty poor at poole. Belle vue are a bit stronger with the new riding order now Bjerre is at no1 where he should be but it won't be enough. Zengota R/R makes poole significantly stronger

I reckon woffinden would ride if rosco wasn't tm. Time for him to go. You can't have a national manager running jobs for the boys. Just like the rest of the cartel that goes by the name of the BSPA

So many mechanical issues tonight. Never known anything like it. Steve used 3 different bikes. Tungate on Fricke bike in the end. Craig looked really slow . Very unusual. Hopefully once Rohan gets settled we will be more comfortable because at the moment we are better on the road. We are making hard work of every home meeting

Nothing official yet although we should get an announcement very shortly. It's a great move. Strangely our home form has been off. Don't think Steve has been as solid and as we carry 2 reserves it's really critical the top 5 deliver. Tungate will fix that. Feel a bit for Justin. He's always a steady Eddie. Feels like an eternity waiting for him to step up to heat leader

It would seem BV have swapped Sedgman for Tungate

If they were PL, or even higher, I would be pursuing every avenue to either seek investment to overhaul the place, or shut it down. That is not the example speedway should be setting.

I don't see that as charm unfortunately. I see it as everything that is wrong with speedway. It's amateur. The racing was awful. I wouldn't go back there if I lived across the street and it was free

Haha your a smart one aren't you? Too clever for your own good but certainly not for me. Worral swapped machinery after that first race he wasn't nearly quick enough. That is why he was passed left right and centre. Do you have any common sense? And do you know what a tv is you pedantic tool

Absolutely horrific track. Too soft. Too grippy. BV lads scrambling all night trying to find set ups. Follow the leader racing. Outside of the speedway it's just as bad. Run down heap of a stadium. I've seen better facilities in non league football.

I'm comparing. I'd already said he had made progress, there is no need to counter argue with that because I'd said it already. I'll spell it out for you. Max will never make it. It's that simple

Coming down for this. Don't know much about national league speedway but I think a top 3 of Payne/Bewley and Smith is good? Bickley as well at reserve will have a day trip. Not been to stoke since the PL days!

BWD without any question of doubt strengthens Poole. Don't let their 2 resident Muppet fans on here tell you otherwise. I fancy rye saying that. Poole are riding without a number 1 currently, KK still hasn't picked his dummy up.

To who Justin?

I was sat literally dead level with the start finish line, 3 rows up. Justin won. In fact I thought it was pretty clear It was like Tuesday at Wolves. Few passes here and there, 1 good race. Close score line. That's enough for 8 out of 10 tracks. Not for the NSS it isnt. The track rides differently when there is moisture in it. Dry and slick, it's the best in the world.

It was too grippy Phil. You can see by the colour of the shale. It's down to the weather, I know it didn't rain today but it was damp, there was a lot of moisture in the air. As soon as I walked out to the track I knew it would mostly be follow the leader. Called it straight away. Actually when I say grippy I mean just slightly damp. Was same against wolves. When moisture gets into the material there only seems to be 1 race line. Times were saw as usual. Not really. RR gave 4 points. MPT made them stronger. Both regular 1 to 7s would have been easy home win

Not the greatest meeting by NSS standards. A scattering of passes here and there but we have come to expect a lot better. This BV team doesn't know when it's beaten. There is a character about it that you don't often see in speedway. A great set of lads who get along with each other. When someone has a bad meeting, somebody else steps up 3 consecutive maximums from 3 different people shows you the character and strength in this team. Just a shout out for max as well. He's been much better in the last 3 meetings. Not sure if it was mechanical but really critical we've got him firing now. Got such a cool style on the motorbike. Not sure if it's me bit he reminds me a lot of Chris holder

I have thought about that. But, this teams biggest asset is it's character and it's togetherness. All the averages in the world will not change that. I'd normally say bollocks to that theory but I think we need to keep this team together.

Which then becomes dangerous. You'll piss off every speedway rider on the planet. These bikes are volatile in the change over from low to high revs since the introduction of the new silencer. It's not about throttle control anymore it's about safety. Standardised equipment to suit the UK will not work because speedway is an international sport and unfortunately big tracks suit the new machines much much better. That means Poland btw. The NSS is absolutely perfect for the modern speedway bike. Many tracks in Poland and Sweden are the same.

Having thought about it I fancy Leicester for a point here. Bates/King/Nilsson and MPT will score 40 between them. Gomolski being Polish will enjoy it I'm sure

Houugard is in the same Danish meeting yet Somerset have booked Kurtz. I'm thinking BV have chosen RR now

Clegg hasn't progressed enough though. I'm not going to argue that he hasn't progressed because the numbers suggest otherwise, but compare him to Steve Worrall for example over the same time period. It's not even a contest. 2 solid changes for wolves, now a certain play off team although I still don't think they will travel particularly well

Watt has been absolutely terrible for absolutely ages! Whoever thinks that wells doesn't improve rye (And there are 1 or 2) haven't been paying attention! And I see Starman is along with a solid contender for most irrelevant post of the year!
