    • I think you may be onto something there, though that is open for abuse. I would say if the fixture is called off early (before the referee has arrived) then the away team is awarded a point. No points for the home team.  The fixture is then run at a later date.
    • UK championship is a great place for young riders to develop and gain a broad experience, plus Poole is a club where you are likely to actually win some silverware. (A big for instance is Vinnie Fordd, for whom I'm guessing his half season at Poole will possibly turn our to be the highlight of his career. Sorry a bit cruel but do you disagree?).
    • Was at the cycle speedway in Leicester & looking forward to seeing the Speedway afterwards. While it rained at times, they just got on with it. Almost looks bad for Speedway that an amateur sport with brushes can get a track ready, but a professional sport with tractors etc can't?
    • There have been plenty of shysters in this sport over the last 100 years, not all of them recent!
    • It was more than one in the Leicester area, and one was particularly heavy around 12.30. Let's be fair and say we don't know how the track was before that happened as there has been some monster downpours over the past few days and we know the Leicester track doesn't drain as well since the alterations.
    • It will not happen. Those that run clubs and decide when to race are in control and the punters can go screw themselves as not one promoter or club owner gives a fig as far as supporters are concerned. It will not happen but clubs like these second rate businesses deserve to be boycotted and frankly UK speedway is not what it was when clubs were run by professionals and not the cowboys who seemingly think they are the future of the sport when in reality they are bringing it to its knees. To every promoter, the message is ‘you are shisters’ and you would not have survived back in the day when the sport had a modicum of respectability but each one of you have brought the sport to its nadir. I hope you are all proud of your efforts because few if any supporters believe you have the sports interest at heart. Thankfully real supporters have credible options to follow and the UK features way down the rankings when it comes to following this once great sport.
