Zmarzlik is IMO one of the greatest riders ever to grace our sport, he is just amazing to watch

How did Lambert get in the top three? He's not good enough to even be in the GP, is he?

That statement should have the words “finish a race” at the end

I will openly admit I am not a big fan of Rob Godfrey, however all these comments suggesting as chairman he makes decisions to suit himself and the Scorpions are tiresome and quite ridiculous!

Currently discussions about stopping Russian citizens even visiting the EU, let alone working. The war doesn’t look likely to end soon, so neither will any sanctions Be a minor miracle if they are back next season

Laguta and Saifudinov will be out for several years. No Russians will be allowed until Russia leave Ukraine. Expect their careers are over to be honest.

That Dan Bewley chap has some bottle! Well done, young un (again).

Bit frustrating that Harris, flint and potentially Brennan (not one to refuse a guest booking) could've been in this meeting but are in a pointless European pairs event getting spanked off the top nations second strings. Why when no Ellis take a another Berwick rider as well. Take howarth or worrall seen as Leicester no meeting!!

You can tell I’m bored waiting from my girlfriend to get her nails done, that I’m reading this nonsense. The weather is cited as the reason for 99.9% of postponements so to put forward a ruling to help eradicate the many dodgy ones is perfectly valid. To say it wouldn’t be workable and then choose a scenario that may happen once every decade is ridiculous. Power outage, plane crash, animals escaping from the zoo are not points of discussion due to their infrequency. I’m pretty sure the Ukrainian tracks didn’t have an invaded by Russia clause and that shouldn't be a reason to say the rules were lacking or unworkable. I can imagine how the conference gets bogged down with nonsense such as this instead of actually moving our sorry sport forward. The current (and recently departed) people “running” this once great sport have not a clue what they are doing and they have driven it down to a point where no creditable person will touch it with a barge pole, so we are are left with the current monkeys in charge and anyone else stepping in would be equally clueless. What a horrible shame.

Best wishes to Adrian Miedziński on a full and speedy recovery

FIM rule 47.1 subsection 14b Oh alright, it was you

Darcy Ward?

I don’t mind kelvin

Umbrellas at the ready

Subjective view I know but Marcella reminds me of a Eurovision Song Contest presenter and is annoying as hell

Think it was Dugard and Loram at Coventry in 2000. Think that's the last year we had three Brits in a semi final as well,.

What can you say? Absolutely incredible! And he seems such a nice kid...

I couldn’t pick my nose lol

Why do these Discovery clowns seem unable to play ANY video clip without accompanying it with "music"... it's SO annoying!

Maybe riders earn too much and don't want to pay super tax.

I feel sorry for these newcomers who never had a chance to watch him.

Nor did anyone else after lap two...

Brilliant racing so far. Hope the Cardiff apologists are watching....

Changes have to be in a declaration by 31st August so 28th August is the effective deadline to allow the requisite three days notice.

I posted the same earlier but glad someone else has mentioned it. Another poster criticises Godfrey but he is the Chairman & not the only one to make decisions. Someone also says 2 wrongs don't make a right.

As a wise Edinburgh supporter once said, every injured rider will have a point when he is injured one day and not injured the next. Also the recent ruling not to allow IRR for a pre-existing injury is a definite incentive to delay returning from injury. It's always been the privilege of an injured rider to decide when to return. There's no doubt Ryan Douglas has been injured. I'd be more inclined to ask why a facility is given for the European Pairs, a dud of a competition which other riders could have been selected for.

Same amount of track grading as we get every week. The first track grade was a heat earlier than usual, definitely due to Lewi having 2 on the trot. The meeting was still over in good time, well less than 2 hours, and yes it could be over quicker if no grading was done but would be at the detriment of the racing.

Trouble is if you let the dirt go wide too early in the meeting you end up with one line right round the boards later on in the meeting which isn't good for the racing. Grading is a nuisance but sometimes it's required to keep the track good for 15 heats.

That's because qualifying hasn't happened yet......

Give over lawson would never do anything like tht to another rider 1 of the least dirty riders there is

Could explain the decline in the crowd levels at the EoEA... Alien abduction of the fans

And is Eurosport cameras there that’s more crucial if it’s on or off than the weather forecast

Best wishes go out to Adrian. Fingers crossed he pulls through.

I love watching the British Talent Cup (formerly Motostar) races in BSB, to see who the next big thing could be. There are some cracking kids coming through at the moment. Great to watch.

The issue is that Artem Laguta is a Polish citizen. If he wasn't, he would be screwed, but hard to imagine that a court would stop a Polish citizen working as a speedway rider because of where he was born. Internationally it becomes more complicated, but if he is eligible to race he must sure be allowed to 'defend' his title. Not sure Emil would get the same invitation, but surely Laguta must get a pick.

And someone really needs to tell him that his 'Dirtometer' is really just a screwdriver.

Ridiculous to have 3 Brits in the Semi, and the top 8..... Imagine if the UK could produce Speedway riders...?

Bet you never copied what set up he was using...

No word of any guest, I guess it must be R/R. Scunny won't get anything out of this now.

Someone else doing it still makes a mockery of getting a facility, and it also highlights who's running the sport in this country. I think it's unfair to say Godfrey is biased, I think he's just been a general failure as chairman so everyone has probably benefitted equally.

Or it would have been 'remember when it was summer trophy'

Shame Lawson didn't have the same attitude. Hopefully Michael will come back stronger and fitter next season.

New fans! They might become regulars

Thought the whole programme was great and a real incentive for the lads to get to the final on a real track in a magnificent stadium. I hope the FIM continue development programmes like this. congratulations to the first three especially Mickel Andersen . Something tells me that the Polish lad who was third is going to be a real personality if he sticks to the sport. Ace and Luke weren’t disgraced by any means and performed well, congratulations to those that work with them in Berwick academy.. finally ,absolutely brilliant to see Brian Andersen again after all these years. I’ve never seen him so happy..

It's the same format as his other books, includes Southern Area League and some other competitions like Britannia Shield.

The BV Wolves meet will go ahead, but the evening meet will be called off because a greyhound has peed on the track. AKA we have injuries, so we would rather run it when we don't have any.

Yes... but have you seen the forecast!

Never mind the announcement for Harris, how about announcing Harris isn't going to be there in the first place. There was a preview of the meeting on social media yesterday with no mention that the Berwick No1 would be missing.

I think most fans that attend just treat Cardiff as a social occasion.( an expensive one).Personally it not for me.I rather such a meeting at a decent track.
