Pumped. That is all.

Ellis should be given a ban for start of next season. That's an absolute piss take. Bad enough second rate foreigners doing it but the British champion? Out of order

BREAKING NEWS: Adam Ellis today confounded medical science to race for his French team Morizes. The French ace romped to 13 points helping his side to an away victory. Government scientists are now seeking to question the British Champion to ascertain his miracle recovery from "illness" sustained at Sheffield on Thursday evening. They believe it may have been a dodgy pie but sources close to the Lourdes based Frenchman say that he has been drinking the spring water from the bottom of his garden... more news as we get it.

To be fair Brady is better off resting at Home because it's not like Belle Vue are going to win the title tbh. Peterborough are just too good.

Some riders are already doing a better job than people on here. IMO.

He’s just been on the phone to MPT to find the excuse that the BSPA will accept.

Behave couldn't even get a lap done in Friday

Delighted with that lead , tie not over , but thats a defendable lead

Racing incident IMO, Nicol did nothing wrong either. Kemp cut under Bailey just as Nicol was coming round inside, neither could have anticipated what the other would do, if they even saw each other. With the track being extremely slick to cope with rain you had to be aggressive to get anywhere, unfortunately another downside of October speedway.

Ermo is the Stanley Unwin of speedway pundits His answers never match the questions asked

Nah - just can't be bothered with the whingeing from various Poole pullets.

And you know the circumstances of both clubs, their ability to stage meetings on an ‘off race night’? Do you genuinely believe Edinburgh and Leicester wanted to drag things out to the extent they have been just to be awkward? Give me a break. Hopefully Poole have found their venture into the second tier so unbearable that they’ll trot off back to the Premiership next season. The rest of us will survive without you.

4/6 in Speedway.

Anyway back to the present , let's set about this mob from the east today and see if we can take a decent lead over to Armadale for the second leg . No more of this beautiful Sunday nonsense haha

I dont get why the test match upsets you so much . We're in the fortunate position to own our stadium, so we could squeeze a test match in that week and aqueeze anything else in any other day as long as the other club and riders agreed .

Nonsense I have a text from someone in the pits well before 6:30pm confirming the Ambulance breakdown and also on this thread it was also mentioned well before the time you state. If the call didn’t come through until 18:45 as you say what was the reason the riders didn’t start to warm up their bikes then? Did you not think that odd ? Perhaps if you had asked why they were not preparing to race they would have told you!

At this rate the Poole and Glasgow riders will need to do another pre-season to get up to speed again.

Don’t be silly. There is no place for common sense/logic on a speedway thread. Next you will be suggesting that riders can only ride for one team in the UK.

Poor Nicoliar. She certainly knows how to run a country. Just noticed I said run meant ruin.

To cop off a farcical week roary the tiger and ed the monarch get into a vicious fight and both ambulances have to take them separately to hospital to prevent another fight. Meeting off

Or is he?

I understand the costs of the ambulance & staff is more then £1000 per match. The ambulance has been coming from the west midlands for over 5 years now without any serious issues till yesterday , no local private ambulance is willing to provide an ambulance to speedway due to the high risks involved & the same company provide all the medical staff as-well as the ambulance.

Godfrey has already said he is not in favour of an independant person/body running Speedway, Its what many fans think is needed but most Promoters seem blind to the obvious, decisions are taken by the BPSL which favour certain Teams, but are to the detriment of the Sport as a whole in the UK.

Hope Broc is okay. Kemp did nothing wrong. Correct decision by referee.

Just as an example:- From Strike Zone First Aid Event Cover:- It is not possible to give exact prices for our services as this will depend on the risk assessment however typical costs are: £14/hr for 1st aiders, £16/hr per medic and £12/hr for an ambulance to be on site. (All prices are subject to a minimum charge of £75, mileage is charged for distances beyond 25 miles) 7 x Medical Staff:- 6@£14 + 1@£16 + Ambulance@£12= £112 per hour! + Mileage!

Obviously giving the weej a false sense of superiority ahead of the likely play-off matches.

Asking for a friend…….did Ellis just pull a sickie or was the promoter happy for him not to travel and save himself a few quid?

What a great ambassador for British speedway the British champion is. Should be banned from British speedway end of!

Given their history and season they’ve just had, I’d take both Walasek and Gapinski over Miedzinski any day of the week

R/R for Kurtz. It's our title to lose.

So Zack Cook guests on Wednesday against the mystery team

Seeing you don’t have a clue what you’re talking about I’ll give you some information to help. The club tried to run the 2nd leg of the Redcar match last Tuesday/Wednesday, however there wasn’t enough volunteers/track staff to stage it. Hence why we had to go with Friday again. Thankfully we have enough staff to cover the meeting this Tuesday. Hope this clears it up a bit for you.

If you are just watching speedway it's cheaper to do the monthly subscription for 6.99 a month. If you subscribe each time on the day of the Grand Prix and then cancel you can get 6 monthly subscriptions for 41.94.

Yep it's a deliberate ploy to try and stop the two best teams from winning the league. Play offs are bad enough but to have the top six involved is crazy add in the fact that they are being held in October and its madness.

Via Racer and Royals who puts links to most on the day or You Tube sometimes have live links. commentary is usual Polish ,but that’s still better that Nig.just turn down sound it easy to follow what’s happening

If you check out the International Speedway section of the forum, somebody (usually R&R) will post a link before the meeting starts

Can the Premiership take Poole (and their whiny fanbase) back please?

Take your league win, far as I'm concerned you top a league you win it. Honestly I'm over it this season. But to gave a go at one of few successful promotions in this country for trying to PROMOTE the sport is absolute nonsense.

What is not out of the control of Leicester Speedway is the number of ambulances in attendance. They've been caught out before by not having adequate medical cover to ensure the smooth running of matches. It should be compulsory for 2 ambulances to be in attendance in my opinion. It seems like the sport is run by a bunch of chancers at times.

Here’s an Idea….. The Team that finishes top of the league (all Leagues) are the Champions??

Betty

Wouldn’t take too much notice what the BBC think. They thought Jimmy Saville was a nice guy enough said.

Ellis is a poor excuse, deserves a ban. Obviously can't be arsed. He's British champ and Leicester fans would want to see him. So he's short changed them TJ is injured. So that's ok Aarnio, is riding on continent so why as he not been Riding for scunthorpe Pijper as had his license taken off him for fighting at a British youth round I'm told. So he's banned

I just can't see Michael Palm Toft being the kind of rider who would pick and choose meetings without good reason. In my limited experience of him he seems a very genuine guy. It's easy to understand how he might try to ride last Thursday, struggle, then pull out of Friday. However if he rides on Monday I would have thought he has to ride the next day or forfeit the facility.

Our crazy pole will be eyeing up a few victims of the bend 4 inside kamikaze move.

This has been a holding year with Eurosport as it looks like British speedway along with the GPs will be shown under the Discovery+ identity. And maybe with different commentators for both the UK product and the worldwide feed? Although Kelvin does a solid job, Nigel has come across as disinterested and error strewn this year, almost like someone who knows his time is up. It’s a shame, really, because they used to make a good team but that just hasn’t happened this year. I’m not sure who could or would replace him - hopefully not another ex-rider - but I think both Nigel and speedway would benefit from a parting of the ways…..in my opinion.

Definitely the worst by a mile. He just talks absolute nonsense. I think Chris Louis is excellent and should be used regularly.

What budget, stop talking bollocks as usual.

Nah... It's all the idiots on here that make you feel that way! I'm only 59 and after an hour on here, I feel I'm going loopy!

Maybe, but the BSPL averages as posted are the official averages and the only ones that apply for team-building etc.
