    Glasgow Vs Berwick 12th June

    Very good pics George, I've not been free to enjoy live speedway last few weeks (although I can this sunday) but there's no meeting. So your pics are very welcome.

    Hasn't Mitchell been with donna for around 8 years? Proves that it ain't a scam as some suggest.

    Old Git Syndrome

    We can't find a current solution at present to solve speedways many problems. In the meantime we need to put the rule book aside and continue through the turnstiles to show that we still love our speedway and have a appetite for it.
  5. Hope you enjoyed the meeting though. I travelled down for the pairs at somerset one year and I arrived late. When I got in the staduim shane parker had just come a cropper and withdrew for the meeting, I can relate to your frustration.

    Old Git Syndrome

    Speedway can't move forward while so many of its fans live in the past.

    British Final Belle Vue June 13th.

    This really is a open meeting so many riders on form knowing they have a chance of being champion. Garrity is a rider who can surprise and has as good a chance as worral/cook/lawson/stead.
  8. After watching Stevie "wonder" Worrall come from 15 metres I reckon my top four needs to change. Just thought of a song for his heat wins......Oasis-wonderworral.

    British Final Belle Vue June 13th.

    I've never been so excited about a british final in years. Finally the riders have the track to race on and it will have plenty of space at the first bend so we should be in for a treat. Nicholls Cook Lambert Lawson
  10. I have faith in Ben and I'm not concerned yet. Riders go through periods of mechanical gremlins it happens but as speedace says riders must have confidence in their equipment to be able to race. When he solves his issues we are going to be blown away with his talent in full flight he's a awesome sight.
  11. Every contested first bend every elbow, nudge could be too much. everytime I watch races the first bend really can be scary. These guy's put it on the line in this part of the race to get the advantage for lines and we have all seen pile ups where the riders walk away. Speedway as a sport It makes me respect every rider or anyone who has given it a try, its so dangerous it takes our young idols and favourite riders without notice. The lucky ones live but have terrible injuries that ends free movement and life quality, Ricky Ashworth, leigh adams, Gary Havelock, David McAllen, Darcy Ward too name a few.
  12. R.i.p. So sad and tragic a young life lost.
  13. Fromafar looks like you have a axe to grind with Mr Hall. So he should be denied riding?

    Buster's Views

    At least maybe the penny has dropped and changes are on way. Any changes made should be put to a fans consortium for scrutiny then approval. Because some on here know more than the guys making up the rules.
  15. Fantastic from Richard Lawson love to see him doing well. Aaron has struggled EL so far but is in a disjointed team thats struggling with low morale. I hope the lions can turn things around and their riders show what they are capable of. Excuse my lack of knowledge but what can the lions do to strengthen? The 28 days is not the best way to deal with this issue seems unfair to club involved.
  16. Speedace fishing it seems. After the two legs is it not the redface bears.

    Stadium Racing

    I must admit I fall into the category of speedway only and don't follow any other motorsport. There is no sport that comes close as a spectacle and there is no sport that can match the danger involved for participants. Speedway gives me butterflies before races start and feeling the vibrations in my chest standing at the tapes before the go up is just fantastic.

    Side cars at ryehouse? That would be a demolition derby.
  19. Many thanks Sue and Snapper.

    Brady Kurtz At Plymouth

    This team will push up the league its young and exciting. Any team who reckons a top six finish is a done deal think again, Plymouth will be there come playoff time. I really hope the stadium is packed every week to back the promotion for piecing together a superb team.
  21. Hope the big meeting at armadump goes well tonight. We should win by 12 against the bears on sunday. I hope the hibs pump the belly boys tomorrow.

    Glasgow 2016

    So when will these quality pics start appearing in the speedway star? I heard george.m could photograph a bead of sweat falling from a gypo's head while tanning a shed.
  23. Although you never mentioned his name in your post it clearly refers to Richard. Rules are rules but in speedway they are so inconsistent when it comes to enforcing them. I doubt that the referees know all the rules and thats the problem. Richard would have won yesterday if he had a short back and sides it wouldn't have made a difference. Ok your not a wimp and I will take that part back at least your post wasn't as insulting as jenga's.
