    Yep that big word if again lol Yep hindsight is wonderful thing but thought bomber would of got 3 points where wells did not but nothing is guaranteed in speedway.

    But in hindsight they got it right as heats 11 and 12 were 9-3 in favour of Berwick whilst a 3-3 which you were hoping for in heat 11,would of only made it 8-4 to Berwick even with a 5-1 tac sub success if they had of used Bomber in heat 12

    Then you have an "allowance" of time for on track injuries which is incorporated into the overall running time to complete a meeting.

     

    So would we have to have a new set of rules in the rule book 

    serious injury = unlimited time. Doctor looking at rider = 30 mins. Riders shaken = 10 minutes. Spectator in crowd falling ill = 40 minutes. AirFence deflation = 30 minutes. Innocent riders machinery repairs= 10 minutes.

    The list could go on as how many meetings run over 2 hours if there is not an unforeseen incident

    Newcastle Speedway are pleased to announce, that from this week, all children under the age of 16 will be able to enter FREE of charge (with a paying adult)!
     

    So does this mean a headmaster could take his full school ? Is 300 kids running around for an extra £18  going to be worth it 

    Obviously I am joking but can you imagine Rob Grants face  if someone did do that ?

  4. This is a quote today from one Diamonds fan who has been going to nearly every home meeting since 1975 from the age of 11 ….. I am not going today to watch that sh*te, I am staying in to watch Liverpool v Everton …….. Wonder how many other fans were saying the same thing ? 


  5. I have been going to Brough for 43 years now and for 40 of them years I used to pay my entrance money to watch the Owens, Hunter, Bargh, Pedersen( Nicki and Bjarne)Stuart Robson   Larson, Bach and Lambert etc Now when I pay my entrance money I say I am going to watch Cook, Masters, Pickering, Nicholls, Charles Wright, Kerr and the Worralls etc …. Notice the common theme ? I used to go to be excited by my teams riders now I look forward to seeing the opposition teams riders

    I don't think that would've been the case, it was well documented that there was a lack of riders due to Covid / Brexit / Polish rules. 

    The main difference was the RS rule gave Danyon Hume a Champ spot (deservedly) & allowed for stronger guests at reserve (e.g Leon Flint replacing weaker riders)!

    What is defined as a rising star .. You are always going to get problems… if the rule had of been around in the 70’s and 80’s Kenny Carter would of been a rising star, Michael Lee would of been a rising star, Gary Havelock would of been a rising star the list could go on, so there will always be riders at reserve who are better than others at a young age which would sh@ft the ruling to keep reserves equal

    My mate’s Sisters Brother-in-Law has been told off someone who bought a Chronicle from someone selling them in the city centre that her uncle’s cousin reckons we’re in Talks with Laguta who they reckon comes in on a 3 point average because he once watched Neighbours and has a Kylie poster on his wall. Keep it to yourself 

    Now I know your making things up…………….

     

    They have never had blokes selling the Chronicle for years in town
