Right,,,, where are the usual suspects,,, I need help falling asleep. Any win at Poole is a good win,, well done the Panthers

Please come back when you know what your talking about ....

Wait for the R/R made Panthers stronger post to follow

Hans is back to his old best. The man is winding the clock back.

Hardly the dramatic team changes we hoped for but to be fair not sure what was really available Good luck to Jacob Best wishes to Simon - he obviously tried and gave 100% but sadly Brough just isn't his track and probably best decision for both parties But he will always be welcomed back even as an opposition rider - he gave it 100% and that's all we can ask

How about Monday Monday by the Mamas and Papas. That seems more appropriate for a Speedway race night these days.

What price all three Buster tracks in the Play Offs

Well done agent Ellis

Well done Peterborough! Just loving this team after I saw them ride on Bank Holiday Monday at their home track. (Possibly one of the best tracks in this division). Good to see Hans at his best.

Only goes to show there will only be room for one Andersen in the Panthers team

Well done Panthers.

No doubt the usual garbage from the usual people will be spouting later how Peterborough should of got 4 points tonight and not 3 ....

OOPS

Remember your love ins with Linus all those years ago. Are you over MJJ yet?

Wow.... what a win that was! Hans was superb and everyone chipped in barring the guest. BWD to reserve will make us only stronger.

Silence is the golden rule in Speedway, another reason why people give up on it...

Looks like Rasmus has just finished third in Danish Championship behind Kenneth Bjerre and NKI but ahead of Nicki Pedersen and MJJ

Shouldn't be a problem badge,,,, ony one of them can have the bit at the back at one time.

9 teams without a fixture on Saturday, 7 without a fixture on Sunday. Plenty to choose from just getting the right rider to do the job.

Read an interview in SS with Wajtkneckt a few weeks ago. Said he has problems switching from grasstrack(?) to speedway, and that it takes him a few rides to get back into the hang of things with speedway. I don't know how often he does grasstrack, but surely coming out and saying something like that isn't the best policy?

Does it really matter, the match is done.

Allen hoping to return Monday,,, excellent news.

well if he needs something to drink he can always buy a programme!! From the Bandits' Facebook Page "Shielfield Park is the place to be in Berwick this Saturday night and we are feeling generous... Simply purchase your match day magazine and receive a free drink voucher! Cash in your voucher at any Bandits outlet on Saturday night and receive any beverage of your choice on us" Also repeating the Kids for Free ticket and prize draw - winner gets a Bandits' Junior Bodycolour - which proved very popular on its debut against Sheffield. If the youngsters haven't got a ticket through their schools Buddy will have some at the turnstiles and they are available from the Box Office entrance too.

Does anyone know the suggested team riding order on Monday? My view would be the following 1. Lambert (R) 2.Palm Toft 3. Proctor 4. Jorgensen 5. Cook 6. Kerr 7. Lambert (S)

Sadly the Boomtown Rats "I don't like Mondays" may be more appropriate.

Ulrich is quite simply useless and the only place he is heading, is the reserve berths IF he survives that long. Should be out of the door immediately Zach simply isn’t a fraction as good as he or his crew think he is and, he hasn’t got the bottle or the balls to be a speedway rider. Sorry. Once again last night he showed his lack of bottle. In his second ride, made a half decent gate but when he had both Eastbourne riders by him approaching the third bend, he CLEARLY shut the throttle off and pulled out of it. Not acceptable. Nathan Stoneman put both rides to shame, yet again Tom Bacon showed why he is such a firm fans favourite and just what a miss he is, not being in the team. I’d like to see BradleyWilson Dean plus one other, in for Ully and Zach and if not him then simply anyone will do me as opposed to those two makes you wonder just what Danyon Hume has done to upset the management and not be in the team. I know Laurence Rogers is worried about Danyon’s history of shoulder injuries but that shows just what a muppet Rogers is. He’s the third person that should be out of the door WITH IMMEDIATE EFFECT. This club will never get anywhere whilst he’s involved. History tells its own story about muppet Rogers!!!!

The slicker the track the better the racing is at nesr all tracks. It's a bloody myth that grip gives good racing. Grip just makes the guys in front quicker meaning harder to pass Keep the track slick. Dont grade it till about heat 10 which allows a little dirt line out by the fence which then gives an extra racing line for the riders. But then I'm no track curator so probably talking bullcrap

Bradley is a lovely lad, very genuine.

Quote by the promotion from the Devils Gladiators forum: This weeks meeting is cancelled, the clay hasn’t turned up at the track as yet , 10am Wednesday, I and i cannot guarantee that the track will be ready. I do not like to disappoint fans by not having a meeting , I also do not like disappointing fans with copious amounts of dust. Last week we had the local councillors in attendance to monitor and noise test the Quads, and was probably dismayed at the dust as was I. I have not been able to sort mixed shale, the only quarry producing quality shale at the moment is in Scotland, therefore I am awaiting pure ball clay and will endeavour to mix it myself and hopefully sort the problem . >>>SORRY GUYS .......

Probably so, but the state of the track doesn't have to be so grippy. I'm sure he could remove most of the top surface,. The slick conditions would create a far better spectacle then we usually witness. I am of the feeling the track is grippy to give the home side a bigger advantage, but the results is of no importance if the fans stay at home... I've always thought excitement is what keep the fans happy... not bored with processional follow the leader...

Negative negative. I applaud any club who can admit that their track is not fit for use. It doesn't show the club in a good light but an honest one.

Havn't you got a team to support ? Because it strikes me you live and die on the Poole thread.

Okay okay,, I know shovvy gets lots of stick,,, but time to give him some credit,,, the only Poole fan to congratulate the panthers on their win.

Just wait for the excuses now from old one eye

Not sure where you think I don't view visiting schools as a good idea. Going to schools is a great idea from a business perspective. In fact getting them onside is a huge plus for any business... Hence I am a governor of one locally and raise thousands in funds for another two adjacent to my shop.. And guess what? Most of the parents and guardians of the kids shop with me... I also do the same with one church, two mosques and three local food banks. Who would have thought forming a professional relationship with thousands of kids, parents and guardians and other professional organisations would be so successful..? I don't though hand flyers out in supermarket foyers... As that doesn't work... I know because those who do it in my supermarket end up picking them all up from my car parks floor after giving them out.... There is though no point in visiting a school, charity, religious body, community project etc etc without a long term plan of action to mutually build a lasting relationship which benefits both parties... Thats when businesses gain from being a 'key player' in the local community.. And the local community benefits from their support.. And I still think there is too much tractor racing which puts back the quality of racing just when the dirt has moved out enough to improve the spectacle.. Just a theory... As is another one I have.. And that's the sports marketing (in this country) must often be devised by some people who still think it's 1979...

No Tungate and a poor guest in Kasper Andersen.... Poole should mop up here

Not quite:- 18.8 FACILITIES A Absent rider (s) 1-3 by MA G or RR B 1 absent rider 4-5 by MA RR (unless RR is already being used then it’s a G) C Both riders 4-5 RR x 1, G x 1 at the Team Managers discretion D Absent 6-7 G So because Doolan is now 3rd in the averages they have the option of a guest or R/R. If he was 4th it would be R/R only. (unless someone else was missing as well). When Matty guested for Pickering, Pickering was 3rd by average and Doolan 4th. They've now swopped around for June.

30 years How to make someone feel very old very quick.

Don't think I've ever seen anyone go into a bend quicker at Glasgow than Robert Lambert at one particular meeting. Can't remember his overall performance though.....that overtaking move just sticks in my head.

Ash was superb for Birmingham last night . His form has really picked up last few meetings 8,10 and 11 hopefully he can carry that over too you boys .

Saw Vaclav Verner use the same tactics at Halifax when riding for Exeter,lost count the number of times he touch the fence on the 3rd 4th bend.At the time just thought he was out of control( not so)

I'd even rate him top ten - he's definitely Grand Prix level - and a highly exciting rider to watch !

you cant buy confidence at the supermarket, sadly

Answer to your second point is yes quite often rode a speedway bike.. and it's a massive adrenaline rush as is cycle speedway which I have also done quite a lot.. agree on the fact he never set the league on fire but how many riders struggle & then turn it around to become a decent rider so I say let's give the lad a chance to see what he can do & if he scores his average then I'll be happy with that,, on Simon he clearly couldn't get to grips with brough but he did give it his best...

Intending to slide off in heat 3.....? Yes. I’m sure a rider will prepare his bike, drive to a meeting, pay his mechanic and then risk jarring an already injured shoulder and have to clean all his bike / kit off afterwards

Yip,should be a cracker of a meeting, whether Cook can miss the gate and pick off quality riders remains to be seen, certainly makes Championship riders look 2 nd rate.Seems silly to have Lambert and Cook in same meeting when only top 4 makes it through.

Question answered he now has a UK team (oh and its 4.00) Oh dear!!! Has Dandelion got a "Wizards Cuff" Grumbling along the right lines... definitely a proper rider he's Danish No!!! What like she sorted the Shipyards The Mines and heavy engineering? Again No!!! We all do but will he struggle as much as Simon did at Brough? Diamond@hardheart possibly? Honestly!!! Not that he reads this forum (well not if he has any sense anyway) but good luck to the kid, Newcastle have taken on many Scandinavians over the years and good; bad or indifferent they have always been triers; hard working and professional; furthermore the Newcastle faithful have always given them a fair crack of the whip and made them feel welcome... If he hits the ground running and puts a point or two on his average everyone will be claiming him for their own, so don't be so fickle and give the guy a chance; we have with many others and been delighted; frustrated and disappointed in equal measure so lets see where he gets and how long it takes for the usual suspects to ask for him to be replaced (or sacked) if hes not scoring double figures after his first couple of meetings Good Luck to Jacob and "if not 1st; may all your places come with a bonus point".... Regards THJ

Something along the lines of this would be nice and something we could all get behind: 'Due to the fact that the Workington Comets have had to be displaced from their home at Derwent Park in order to facilitate construction of the new Community Stadium the Council is giving the club its full backing in developing a new home on the site of the training track at Northside. Such a move would reduce the costs of running the sport whilst allowing the club to directly benefit from income generated through food and drink sales. There will be great opportunity for local businesses to get involved in the creation of this exciting new facility which will see the continuation of what is a great family sport and one that has been embedded in local sporting heritage and culture over the last 50 years'.

You best recommend Rasmus Jensen to Rosco or you’re going to miss out on announcing it first.

Can’t believe they are charging £110 to watch a GP.
