Lambeth, eh? He should walk his last two... I'll get me coat...

Why is that mascot hanging around the ambulances like a tool, he should be circulating and entertaining the kids, morbid tosser. As if Anders wants to see that buffoon as he drifts in and out of consciousness, he'll think he's hallucinating.

I'm struggling to work out what's wrong with the track if anything, it's nice and wide, plenty of room entering and exiting the bends and it's smooth with just enough dirt on it. The crashes have all appeared to be rider error to me.

As if he hasn't missed enough gates already.

I reckon the stream will work out pretty cheap in the end. £1 an hour I reckon

If I hadn't spent the money on the stream my Chicken tikka Biryani with madras sauce and Peshwari naan would be arriving now

His interviews and thoughts on the Halifax and Kenny Carter dvds tell you quite alot about Eric as a person.I personally never went to Halifax much more than five times but what a day out loved the track and the people.Loved the clubhouse where you could have a quiet pint and a chat and the Shay what a sight a great track and a real test for a rider.Eric/ Bonnie Boothroyd and his track staff made Halifax a great track to visit I only wish i could of visited it more.

Those last two heats were absolutely epic. Nothing wrong with the track!

2010 AGM

Speedway doesn't conform to ULEZ regulations and all clubs being fined for having tractors.

Dirtometer

To be fair I've had no buffering at all, it just seems like a pretty amateurish presentation all round , then again it's live speedway and it's marginally better racing than last Saturday. I actually like watching speedway on banked tracks, reminds me of Halifax and Bradford, always loved going to the Shay

Sam started well but as a previous post suggest flagged a bit in his last 2 rides. A courageous performance from the captain on a heavy track. Paco best rider tonight. When he didn’t come round after his last race and headed to pits I thought he was a certainty for heat 15. Poor management IMO. Castagna merited heat 15. Only dropped a point, paid 11. Manager should have put him in last heat.

Tungate is as popular as a turd in a swimming pool

It breaks my heart but speedway has reached an all time low this year, I know injuries can’t be helped but overall this meeting just about sums up the sport, Newcastle closing ,cardiff last weekend, barker suspended and I hear we are just around the corner from another bad headline, where did it all go wrong ?

I am going to contact the credit card company and tell them I didnt get what I paid for.. If they challenge me I will make them watch the meeting via on demand... When they have sat through it I reckon I will get thirty quid back never mind fifteen..

Why are there so many ambulances there? I would've thought they would be busy on a Saturday night in Glasgow?

So that's what a holeshot is, cheers.

British Speedway - If in doubt play "Sweet Caroline" ........ Geez please no viking hand-clap.

Gorzow in trouble tomorrow.

And here we go again, everyone join in , hello darkness my old friend

Needs to get himself a British team spot next season in order to learn new skills. Throttle jockey Polish tracks won't teach him anything more than he already knows so he should dump the Swedish league in order to become a better rider.

Hugely disappointed in Kubera tonight.

This weeks Tractorfest isnt a patch on last weeks in Cardiff..

Paid. Only hasle was jack holders interview. Perfect apart from that. Think Chris has couple of acres. Poor lad

Crowd levels which is a real concern. Just pointing out the concerns that sports will run into next year, I would think thats relevant to any speedway club

Mildenhall

Sgp 3 semi final 1 25/8/22 first heat is 1200 and features British 250 champion Luke Harrison semi final 2 first heat is at 1900 and features Max James and Ace Pijper the final on 26/8/22 first race is 1600 with the top 8 from each semi racing let's hope all the boys make it through

Perhaps Ronnie O'Sullivan will be there

Absolutely agree. Sam shouldn’t have been out but I get the feeling he will always be given the option. Having to hug the inside line can’t have been very comfortable for his injuries either.

Strange meeting I thought. Never felt the Bears were riding well but ended up only 4 points down. Track obviously very tricky early on with numerous falls and spread out racing. Kerr came good in his last 2 rides and Lawson was a good guest. Best I have seen Castagna ride and Pickering as entertaining as usual.

Sad news indeed. A personal favourite from his 1960s Middlesbro' Bears days, along with Eric Boocock, Clive Hitch, Johnny Fitzpatrick, Brian McEown and Kevin Torpie at Old Meadowbank, Edinburgh. Great rider and a bit of an entertainer too - can recall him once doing handstands and walking on his hands on the Centre Green encouraged by Ian Hoskins. Many a great tussle with Dougie Templeton and others. Great memories of Eric Boothroyd.

5 minutes of Dave Rowe and Michael Max and they'll be offering compensation not just a refund

What? An electric one?

I think the ambulance with have the run round the outside on the first bend but the tractor will have a better gate with those back tyres

Maybe under orders to not let Majic miss out if he doesnt finish top six...

Yay!! Two commentators.... Well done all who got the info in, and the team for sorting it...

Luxury..

Bright as a knife too. RIP. A great age nonetheless and someone steeped in speedway history.

Put 6 inches of dirt down on any track.....hey presto!

Seven pairs of National League riders take on a pair of Championship riders who have the advantage of racing on their own track with its huge home advantage. Great work BSPL. This could have been a good meeting if staged at Sheffield or Scunthorpe or King's Lynn or Peterborough etc etc. Instead it's a borefest where we already know the winners. Give it a swerve.

Wells retiring after Saturday

A disappointing season by all accounts.IMO Didn't look a bad Team on paper.But we know that doesn’t count for much in speedway.

started ok looked like he was flagging towards the end track was heavy so would be a strain on his shoulder maybe should have given ht 15 to paco he was well on the pace all night

Just browsed through and cant help but laugh, such idiots who cant see what happened. Clowns the lot of them lee complin too thanking rob lol he was garbage too. Oh he rides the oUtside bend, hahaha when? 10 years ago i miss watching newcastle and still annoyed as hell, probably could post my full feeling but ill be banned from the one place where folk speak the truth about the fall of the club!!

It was female

I see the argument for both sides. I enjoy the current system, I personally feel its one of the very few things the BSPA have got right over the last few years. However, having tried to explain it to newcomers to the sport, I can see why the BP system could also be a sensible suggestion.

Its just more proof that three teams are dictating how the championship is being run ,who do you think will benefit most from the proposed aggregate points return

Are ye Bob The Builder like? It will be right without your help thanks Marra... If your team ever get here you can come and spend your money... just dont ask for credit cos a smack in the mouth often offends... Regards THJ
