Sheffield v Peterborough Monday 3rd July
bigcatdiary replied to 4BM's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
It’s the referees who have the final say, generally in consultation with the team captains -
30.06.2023 - League - Scunny v Oxford
bigcatdiary replied to ScunnyDan's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Glad I am not the only one who thinks Superheats are just a waste of time and additional expense. We should have 3 points for each match, win 3, draw home team 1 and away team 2, lose 0. Let’s make it simple, their is nothing wrong with a draw. -
I must be honest Ben I think your coverage is superior to Eurosport
-
And Dickson stated that he had prepared the track different to normal, I am yet to see a decent meeting at Leicester in all the years it’s been open. The Panthers did very well, it’s clearly Worrall’s favourite track and Cook generally backed him up, but it’s almost always gate and go with very little overtaking.

Hawkins face was a picture, the classic smacked arse look

What’s the weather been like in Leicester today.

I for one am not in the least surprised

Your in a small minority then because no one I have spoke to recently thinks like you. At the moment I cannot think of any Premier Team that doesn’t contain at least 4 riders that go really well at the EOES. -
Absolutely nothing the SCB can do about a riders absence if a medical certificate has been issued.

Doesn’t matter what anyone says if a medical certificate has been issued, however many people know it’s complete bullshyte.

Peterborough v Belle Vue Monday June 26th live on Eurosport
bigcatdiary replied to racers and royals's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I thought it was quite an entertaining match with some good racing thrown in at times, but it must be fairly clear to everyone that we are one or two riders away from a competitive team, we are just not winning enough races to win meetings. The track set up is the same for every meeting , generally slick and tyre packed, white line dominated for half the meeting until the dirt moves out a bit. Thats not my idea of a good race track, it’s clear from talking to others that’s not what the riders want either but it’s what they are getting and the large clay content is ruining tyres at an accelerated rate. Worrall I am told cannot get his set up right, he came with Lynn twice last year and did ok both times, the track has been the same for years, funny how Tarasenko had it Sussed after a quick practice. -

Tim are you really that surprised bearing in mind the last year and a half and the managements efforts to make the team competitive, the most interesting thing (other than Tarasenko making his home debut) is how many will turn turn up to watch it bearing in mind it’s a TV match. -
I have absolutely no problem with budget speedway but teams need to be competitive, if he isn’t willing to run teams up to the required level in the Premier League then run them in the Championship where the costs are a lot lower Teams need to be at the very least competitive, that way you ensure good support and confidence levels ensuring everyone, riders, supporters and management remain positive. Getting stuffed everywhere just drives supporters away like it has at Lynn, tomorrows attendance will be interesting as it’s on TV so the usual travelling supporters will be able to watch it on Eurosport.

Belle Vue -V- Peterborough
bigcatdiary replied to Phil The Ace's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Well up till last week attendances we’re holding up well at Peterborough, but the next home v Belle Vue will be a real tester as it’s on Eurosport. It could very well be two financial situations soon, but Panthers attendances will have to seriously drop to get to the dreadful level I have seen at Lynn 3 times this year. -
Well considering he does the Peterborough press releases I think it’s likely to be the latter.
-
Happy to second that BSN is much better than Eurosport.

Kings Lynn v Leicester Monday 19th June Live on Eurosport
bigcatdiary replied to racers and royals's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Some of the racing was ok but the track clearly didn’t suit the home team at the start. The crowd was appalling, it’s not hard to see why Chapman is complaining about the team being over budget, the support is just not turning up. Going on what he said in his post match comments it doesn’t sound too good for Lynn let alone Peterborough and our crowds have been good - so far, -

What you mean like trying to interview both team captains whilst the bikes are being warmed up next door -
Belle Vue -V- Peterborough
bigcatdiary replied to Phil The Ace's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Nothing on the BV website about it. -
The application has been submitted but is awaiting validation by the council, once it’s validated it will appear on the city council website, this process could take many weeks.

I’ve heard a rumour that Kings Lynn might get a mention anytime soon , bearing in mind it’s a Kings Lynn 2023 thread.
