    Kyle also, Ishould remind folk, scored an impressive 7+2on his last visit, so we know he can do it at ourplace.

    This made me laugh!!! Pretty much every away rider has scored well!! Mainly because the home riders are awful 

    Can't disagree there

    I’m sure “proper” qualified sparkys will take offence at those that do a “course” and say they are “qualified”.

    Not really as they both went to college ( James was telling me ) last year at Glasgow & they both have past all the qualifications needed...

    I seen some of interviews when I got home, he never said that from what I remember.

    He said a rider they had been trying to get had just became available so would be looking into that. 
    It could all boil down to finances offered etc, but fingers crossed.

    I can't really comment as I never seen it

    No, av no idea what Oxford have offered, maybe more maybe less, that's what Newcastle offered the guy!,,, generally agree with the rest of what you say tho.

    Could be a good thing that he turned it down, every cloud n that?,,, was a bit of an excessive offer IMO. :t:

    Suppose we know where we stand now, am ready for me track walk. ;)

    Is that the speedway or dog track

    I’d very much doubt paying the riders is an issue. Rob seems a sound bloke and on a positive it must unfortunately be the smallest wage bill in the league.

    It’s sad times for British Speedway and sometimes you have to admit enough is enough despite what your heart says.

    I hope both Newcastle and Birmingham see out the season but you’d have to be crazy to put together a line up for 2023 at either track UNLESS money is no object and you can entice an amazing team of riders who the crowds will flock to see.  Anything less than mediocre, there just seems little point, you wouldn’t keep putting out a blind greyhound to race…….

    Jack Smith wise he’ll be firing very soon so I’d stick with him, he from a good stable after all.

    Smith hasn't the time to start firing soon he needs to do it now !! Congreve was at least gating & mixing it into the corners

    Least Congreve could stay on for 4 laps at Brough and I would of kept Congreve over Smith any day.

    Also George can gate a lot quicker than Smith & got in the mix.. Smith was way behind going into the 1st bend & looked like a rabbit in the headlight's.. not knowing what to do!

    I can't see the Diamonds lasting the season at this rate. 

    As for a new site - with little or zero help from the local council you are fighting an uphill battle. Noise pollution etc etc - You need deep , pockets to offer a sports complex 5g football pitch on infield. Community area or gym.  

     

    Wonder how deep Robs pockets are tho

    Plenty team managers in the stand. ;)

    When the team are going good the management are top dogs but when it's not going well the management are the worst thing ever !!  I'm sure Steve would step aside if someone can do a better job PLEASE step forward & speak to the promotion of you can do a better job

    Suppose you've just gotta make best use of the rules while you can in certain situations?

    & Now according to grapevine BWD in now deemed to be now signed off the sick & ready to race but doesn't look like he has any interest in riding for Newcastle !! It's just gets better for the promotion NOT
