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

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

  4. 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!

  5. 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

  6. 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.

  8. 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!!

  9. 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.

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

  24. 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.

  25. 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.

  27. 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.

  28. 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.

  34. 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.

  35. I think both Emil and Artum are Polish citizens but they ride with a Russian licences. There is talk that they will be allowed a polish licence but unlike chugunov they will have ride under a neutral flag (like they do in some other sports), I think the authorities have meeting about it in September. Whether the FIM will give them wildcards is another question, I personally think they will.

  44. He has been relatively, part time speedway but is one of the main sponsors of Lambert. Even Simon, being captain, should have dropped himself & changed heat 13 & 14 in Rowe & Roynon. Hindsight, wonderful.

  47. Not as fast gated as us, we were half way down the A19 when he passed us! Lawson and Allen underperformed. Lambo and Wright were pants as expected. The only bright note was an excellent performance from our two reserves. Lets face it, in all probability Poole will wipe the floor against Scorpions or, Bears whichever team turns out to be 6th.
