I remember Max riding for the Aces v Poole then riding for Poole at Leicester later that day a few years ago... I think he knocked off Hans Anderson his "for one night only" team mate... Must have got confised after the morning meeting when he was an opponent... Imagine if this "Barry White" went out to the wider public on a mainstream channel? Imagine being an Aces sponsor, or fan, and Dan getting injured tonight and missing the play offs..? Not to mention Wroclaw's reaction. A country where it actually means something to win a title... Lemon already has Roberts number though just in case... Stay safe tonight Dan.... 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes, definitely worse this year, at least last year was for an injury but this is ridiculous. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The team order has to be declared 2/3 days before A change can only be made with the permission of the opposition I believe If a facility has to be used it should remain in the declared position 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Teromaafan 586 Posted August 28, 2023 Didn’t go tonight (CBA) because I’m going on holiday very early in the morning and I was thinking that the Lions riders come to see me when I’m bad. But like the speedway idiot I am (and most posters on this forum) I still followed every heat on the updates site. I thought the Lynn fans were going over the top when predicting that the Stars would get battered whatever team The Lions put out. Turns out they were right. KL at home is just the tonic needed for a demoralising run of successive defeats. Big thumbs up for Bewley digging us out of the poo tonight. He doesn’t need the money or hassle of two meetings in one day, but still delivered double figures. Another solid return from the reserve pairing. All these rumours of team changes would be unfair if it impacted on the current reserves. As a pair, they still appear to be the strongest in the league. Heaven forbid if proposed team changes to fit the points limit meant Sedgy being shown the door. He really would have every right to kick off if that happens. I’m hearing that Lewis Kerr is in for Cook, which is fine by me. Lewis is a gritty racer and Cook…….isn’t what he used to be. On a lighter note, in what other sport would a player/rider, play/ride for and against the same team in the same league on the same day. After three…….. Only in speedway!

40-38 308 Posted August 28, 2023 Wasn't the best spectacle, but hopefully it'll give the team some confidence back. Kerr for Cook can only be an improvement as things stand. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
