understandable, coming from Poole, that you don't know what a 'motorway blade' is

That has to be one of the best tenners worth of entertainment you will ever see. Take a bow Greg Blair. The myth that you canny take at Berwick has gone . Mr mcleary needs to upload the 3 heats onto the speedway gb site for the speedway world to see .

Everyone is trying their best to make it happen... here's hoping for next season... Regards THJ

Bloody tractor has come out more than Josh MacDonald this meeting

Oof that's a salty comeback haha, In the words of frozen let it go... You's got beat off the worst team in the league and you can't handle it.

So much for the rumour about Rowe’s departure. Would love to see him bang a few points in tonight.

Are you using VHS or Betamax? Yes there's always one smart ass and that's me!

Would love to see the reaction at Premier League headquarters when Manchester City and Sky request that the kick off needs to be put back to 7:45 as a few Newcastle Diamonds fans need to go and watch their team at 4:00

Looks like another thumping home win for Exeter

Yeah, but wouldn't that be like hindering the progress of someone who might improve and replacing them with someone that wont?

Tom and Benjamin on 8 points after 4 rides in their SGP2 qualifiers, probably going to need a win in their last heat to qualify. Steven goret beating Benjamin big surprise on what we saw last season!! Edit: Tom finished on 10, Ben on 11 neither qualified automatically

I was at the pits. I saw Gary Flint clutching at straws. Probably embarrassed that we turned yous over. He pushed a lad out of the way and then his son.(Young Rocky) who couldn't put the gas oot got involved again as usual. You're well named no idea.

Ah my bad! Hopefully crowds will be good

The drainage shown in the pictures aren't for houses cause the normal procedure with house building is that the oversite (the lower part of the house from the foundations to damp course/ finished floor level) is built before any internal drainage (the pipework for the outlets coming from in the house like toliets, baths, showers sinks) is constructed. From what I can see there are no oversites for houses in the pictures. To me its looks the pipework has been built in readiness for prefabricated structures to be delivered and fixed onto them. - I've seen in reports that the new stands at the Stadium will be prefabricated structures! Lets hope we see Swindon along with other defunct tracks back next season!

Which makes it all the more galling. In twice seen him this season he's passed more riders than he did in a full season he was with us. Kept sub par equipment here, flew in rode a few seconds and thirds and flew out. Then all you hear on TV is how he never gives less than 100% no matter what he rides for. Was most definitely not the case for us And what was worse is allied vehicles went out their way to provide him with significant sponsorship while was in GPs and even afterwards before he signed. And that was how they were repaid?

Be great in 2023 to av Swindon, Eastbourne & Northside operating no matter which league.

He certainly is.. A pity he cannot ride in EVERY meeting that takes place... But. Fair play to him though... He does try and do so.....

I know most Glasgow fans have little time for him after he appeared to rip the pish with us but you can't deny he is still fantastic entertainment.

he was carrying too much speed and went into the side of starky and knocked him off he even came round after the race and said that to paul

running a last and not making an effort ! could be that they have 2 on the trot , machine probs and saving themselves and their machine for the following heat . . its part of the sport and i dont see why fans should take the huff GET OVER IT .

Thanks for the information. Just bad luck by the sound of it.

Greg was superb mate. Felt a wee bit sorry for Kyle as it overshadowed a great meeting for him also. Decent passing from mason to boot. Overall thoroughly entertaining

Two last places early on but got better in his last two rides with two third places

Surely they could have tested the track before tonight, to ensure the blade had done it's intended improvement ?

Brennan reserve? Can't ever see Kemp being any good unfortunately. A real pity considering how good he was at 15 and 16.

Ben Morley good option if he's to replace Congreve. I was at Plymouth vs Poole & he more than did his job. I also saw him ride at Leicester vs Redcar, he battled away but bigger tracks no good for him, he's too slow. Shud do ok round Brough Park, that's all Newcastle need at the mo.

appreciated...

Maybe just didn't know that is what it is called! lol

Paternity leave. His partner had gone into labour. Haven't heard the outcome, but I hope it was a good one.

Good win for the Tigers. Thought that Plymouth team looked stronger on paper than what actually turned up. I feel the racing has taken a bit of a decline this season at Ashfield. Felt towards the tail end of last season it was getting better and better each week. Seems as though the majority trying their luck round the outside just goes backwards and once they have worked that out it is follow the leader the round the inside.

Most loyal Diamond supporters are not that stupid to think we will actually win against Glasgow but keeping it close will be good.

With 2 guests for their missing Kiwi's, they'll have a chance!

I wonder indeed

Anyone in mind?

Surely Newcastle fans prefer to watch their team getting pumped live at the speedway than the football on the telly

Good to see the age of comedy hasnt died. Bet you can’t wait for the next shrove Tuesday.

Sorry…..not from where I stand near the starting gate. No deliberate infringement by Harris but he cut in front of Starke leaving him no option but to lay down. Couldn’t believe the exclusion light not going on immediately and neither could the other fans around me watching from that viewpoint.

Decent photo on SpeedwayGB Facebook seems to show pretty clear contact.

Pretty much on the money - and Michelson breezing in over Pawlicki too. Cracking night.

Oh dear, if it was known to have been planned a fortnight ago surely cancel any meetings that it might affect if it’s a legit plan of course. Unless you are accusing the club as not having the foresight to postpone a meeting well before this was planned and happy to allow it to look suspicious? If it was planned it was planned very poorly. Either way it all looks very dodgy or unprofessional whichever way you wish to view it.

This is true. As I stated before the facility at the Abbey was a recent convenience, a modern 'Toilette De Stade' if you like, built as it was in 1947 compared to the more tue historical 'back straight cess trenches' circa 1895 at the Boulevard in Hull , which I visited once - and only once. Ironic that Hull Angels, Hedon finished up at the Abbey in 1949. But historical interest (sarcasm ?) aside, as a self-confessed track anorak I watch the developments in Swindon with interest, the shortened and re-shaped track was great & better than I thought it would be if I'm being honest, just needs a stadium around it.....

That surely isn’t even up for debate. World class riders that have been as loyal to British speedway as he has over the years are as rare as rocking horse sh!t.

You must have missed Leon Flint getting himself involved as usual. Strutting around the pits thinking he's a big time Charlie with a long woman's coat on.

Champions bounce back after setbacks.

The replacement for Nigel needs to have a strong sense of humour and be a non ex rider (like Nigel!) to prevent the commentary getting bogged down with nerdy detail. Why Sam continues to secure employment remains one of the great mysteries of the world. I'm sure Sam is an all round top bloke and he certainly was a great rider, but as a commentator and analyser he is disastrous.
