But they shouldn't have to move the cut off point.I think by the 22nd of September all teams have had adequate amount of time to get all league fixtures done.We have had one of the driest Summers in years and yet there is still league fixtures to fit in.Shambolic is the word that springs to mind.Too many weeks have gone by with no fixtures.especially during the Summer holidays.There is no excuse for this to happen.

One incident with Palm Toff,and he's fencing someone every week, what a load of crap

10 heats run by 8:15 - amazing what can be done when it works in your favour......

To be fair to them... Since the 28th of March when the Premiership ran the first League Cup match... There have only been 54 days available on a Monday and a Thursday to complete 10 home meetings... In fact, only 52 when you take the SON break out... What chance did they have? Expecting them to run 10 meetings over this time would be asking far too much especially as every rider in the league would be available every single Monday and Thursday due to priority race nights... We will be expecting them to invent fire next....

The most sensible thing to do for credibilitys sake is Sheffield forfit against Ipswich and give them 4 points. This should be made a rule,,,, I bet teams would re arrange their fixtures better in future if that was the case

Every thread does... Poole fans spread across the forums faster than Covid!

How does an Edinburgh v Leicester topic end up talking about Poole ?

At least Poole don't have Danes fencing/blocking their own guest team mates eg Flint!! Or failing to turn up after 'aggravating his injury' no doubt whilst doing commentary for Danish TV!!!? Still at least it saved Plymouth the air fares!!! Suck it up Buttercup!

Totally shambolic and is part of the reason I (and many hundreds perhaps thousands) no longer attend The "top" league is not even sufficiently organised to get what is about half the traditional number of fixtures run Meetings that have a material impact on finishing positions and therefore the pairings for the league title deciding play offs not being run within cut off timescales is simply unacceptable at any level of sport let alone a fully professional top level

Wouldve been time for a double header - probably could fit in the missing heats of the A fixture too......

Pump broke

Literally hilarious that you trying to make out Lawson is a dirty rider. Is it April 1st??

Give over, lawson far from a dirty rider

Yes but until last night you could argue we had a better team last season apart from the the Cooks who were awful at Leicester last season. They have improved alot. Incredible performance from Ben.

We’ve 6 teams in the league for Christ sake, how we’ve got to the stage where there are outstanding fixtures to squeeze in when we’ve had between April and mid September is ridiculous but here we are. To ride play off meetings with pairings that could up being the wrong pairings is embarrassing.

Tonight could be fun at Sheffield 1, if Sheffield want us in semi they will want to loose tonight. 2, if we want Ipswich in semi we want to loose tonight. Say if that’s what both teams want could be an interesting 15 races. Slowest times wins lol

Sadly nothing on the meeting for Wolves dead rubber for them - will help for average reduction as well - protecting there selfs for the play offs - im sure come the semis they will be a very different side . But we’ll done the Stars on there win

This is what happens when every rider wants to reduce his average

Picture the scene... The meeting goes ahead in the rain, and heat 9 has just been raced. Riders come out for heat 10 where we all know once completed the meeting will be abandoned and result will stand with Sheffield leading. Then the air fence deflates all by itself... the highly trained Sheffield track staff are unable to fix the issue, the match has to be abandoned without a result as the curfew hits... If Carlsberg did speedway....

Because they take over every thread, unfortunately.

Tomorrow`s 4th round still PPV- Onesport can get stuffed !!!!

You just admitted you are the troll. Glad you realise it now

Exactly! Bless him. Is funny though.

Wembley hosted league racing in 5 decades (1920's, 30's, 40's, 50's and 70's), Odsal in 6 decades (40's, 50's, 60's, 70's, 80's and 90's).

It's quite amazing really when you consider the long hot summer we've had and only 6 teams in the league and here we are struggling to fulfill all the fixtures.

No,,,, that's just crazy,, in a professional sport

Says the so-called Brummies fan getting his vitriol in on every thread he can!!

He's no Nicki P tbf! Still think they were just going for same bit of track. But I will let you have it if you can find the other examples of him 'fencing opposition riders most weeks, esp Danes.' I mean if it happens most weeks can't be hard to find can it?

So, you're saying he did do it?

How can he when he's miles out in front

Yes but that is exactly why they didn't pick us!

Know sign of Trackrat this morning

Shambolic and speedway,,, it's like a match made in heaven. If ever 2 words deserve to be in the same sentence,, it's those 2

Not sure the move to the hounds was in his thoughts at all. Never heard any suggestion of that before. The rest I agree with though. For the six years he ran it, he upgraded the track and stadium and always invested heavily in the team (not always successfully). The end was always inevitable given the Bradford City fire and the scale of redevelopment required of a wooden stadium, the value of the land in Manchester and the relatively limited income potential of running a speedway/stock car venue. I also understand he had a divorce from Pat to pay for? Hyde Road, Plough Lane and Brandon are the nearest the sport has had to iconic venues....and they were all allowed to slip into the wrong hands and outside of British Speedway's control. The sport never has had any vision or long-term coherent strategy....hence its lost its most cherished assets. It's still a miracle the new Belle Vue got built. Chris Morton and David Gordon deserve a medal for that at the very least.

Use to happen occasionally BB,but they can't afford that now.Probably use to happen when many more people were coming through the gate and that would have been very rare.Wouldn’t have thought there were any brown envelopes tonight.Wasn't it Wolves that were rumoured to be struggling money wise before the season started. I actually knew a rider that would try to reduce his average,not by deliberately throwing points.But he would have been quite happy to get a max but he would have been quite happy with 8+4 as opposed to 12pts.If he had to win a race he would have done his best to do it.

Sometimes, that has probably been the case. However, that doesn't have any bearing on multiple accounts, blatant spamming, and constant posting of copyrighted material - despite repeated warnings. You can't blame that for his own bullying and abusive behaviour (for which he got banned), or deliberately inflammatory posts. Or his refusal to acknowledge people who have tried to help him. A lot of his posts ARE intended to cause trouble, and I don't understand why...

Whenever it is the Witches should aim to get as close to 15 points as possible With just 10 meetings making up 2023 averages 0 from 5 or 6 rides for a couple of riders will make a huge difference to how attractive they are as signings for next season...

Funny, you complain about everyone else, but you think it's okay for John to irritate, antagonize, spam, troll, insult, and generally piss off everybody else?

They can.Sheffield leg 29th September,Lynn leg 3rd October.

I'm leaving it tonight. Bit of rain around there today. Hope you get 2 winners. Had a cheeky fiver on a Lynn draw @13.00 for a bit of interest while i watch the updates come in. I didn't go tonight. Good luck.

As much I have enjoyed watching them progress over the last few years, I think in order to continue their development they need to spend a season riding a different track to Leicester week in and week out, ideally a Belle Vue, Scunny or Redcar type circuit.

It's when he's not the red mist comes down.

Don't help when you have Lawson fencing opposition riders most weeks, especially Danes!

Not convinced by that, though agree this format would make it closer. Regardless of scoring system, I think Eric would have picked up a couple of titles, with Hans potentially taking the rest in the period 83-92

Well done to the Poole pirates. They were simply awesome. What a team they have! My concern for the lions is the mentality of the team...we've took some (not many I know) beatings away from home...soon as it goes bad it's almost like we give up! Like last season at home against Poole they seemly just thrown in the towel. Same in the knock out cup this year and last year. I can't see us winning the the play offs if we just give up ! Sort the mentality out and we will be ok. It's typical of leicester folk though to get abit moody and depressed when things go wrong in all honestly! Heres to Friday and Saturday night ! COYL!

Don't think they were ever in the Mail. Sometimes the match reports in the Star gave an estimated attendance, but never an official figure.

Decent meeting for the Vojens track

Is it the same plan that they submitted about 30 years ago?

Think I've heard this before https://www.thetelegraphandargus.co.uk/news/22316192.odsal-biggest-stadium-permanent-roof-country-new-plans/
