No one got the chance as it wasn’t offered for sale. Just closed down with absolutely no consultation with immediate effect.

I heard the bookies were offering 1/100 for Craig Cook not to turn up tonight.

The bit that I really dont understand is that TR says dogs are stopping... CO says they arent... but they are both named as directors of the new company so the remedy should be simple... "Hey Tel, it's not true that the dogs are stopping, I dunno what people are talking about." "Oh ok Clark in that case there is no reason to stop running Speedway at The Abbey, I'll carry on". "Yeah you do that Tel, cos we love Speedway, you silly billy". " Ok cheers Clark. Just one thing, why have we set up a new company to find somewhere to run Speedway when there is apparently no reason to stop at The Abbey?" "Come on Tel, that's just to keep the fans guessing, you dont think we're going to be honest with them after all this time do you?"

.....bUT his Sheffield team mate on the inside slightly made jack go off line goig for a gap that was really tight before Holder got moved slightly off line,and i dont think Wright would of just fell off and the red light was straight on.For me the ref made the correct decision.

A better idea would be to clear out moaners like old bob. Far more efficient and saves people having read all the moans.

People are getting their wires crossed Kye is guesting for Charles at Poole for Redcar on Wednesday not for Belle Vue at Sheffield Thursday

Pretty disgusted in some of the comments about Jye and his so called FAKE injury, give your heads a wobble. Jye didn’t even know what the day was or where he was on track. So to think fans are saying it was tactical beggers belief. It really does. Regarding the 2 min rule you have to be on the way to tapes before the 2 mins so nobody missed the 2 minutes. 12 points up and missing wright will gift Sheffield the title. With wright we may have had a chance. But got no chance now.

Quite, but it was a good opportunity to post a classic race from a memorable night!

Lambert wasn't even close to missing the 2 minutes in heat 15. As I learned myself yesterday, on this very thread, the rule is as follows: "Riders must, at the expiry of this time allowance, be on track, under power, proceeding without stopping towards the starting gate." So, he still had about 30 seconds left when he came onto the track.

That’s ridiculous. Does she also let them off if they “only just” touch the tapes ?

Fantastic nights racing... Truly World Class Heat 13... And 15 was going to be a cracker too. Polish racing but in the UK... Tough, everything on the line Speedway, with massive trust and respect between the riders... Breathtaking racing at times.. And a perfect set up for Thursday I would suggest... Big crowd, great racing, thrills and spills, and brilliant atmosphere.... When Speedway is done this well it has few peers... Hopefully more of the same on Thursday.. Best wishes to the two injured Aces.. Could they get Dan Bewley for Thursday as a replacement..? Hope Old Bob tuned in....

Clear space? There's only seven of them left.

I think the 'priority racenights' are a load of b/s to be honest. Poland race whenever they choose, Sweden do Tues/Thurs, and even Denmark are now doing Weds/Fris.

1) is there anything wrong with that? 2) I'd rather be champions, than considered the best team (but not champions)

Lets see which teams riders go for the biggest average reductions for next season?!!

Just watched match, enjoyable, shame the german lad ran out of puff , ht 14 was just inexperience.

surely all fixtures should be completed .whether pointless or not ?

They've run EVERY weekend, except against the GP and on Aug 27 when despite best efforts no opposition could be found.

'Few' ? you mean a couple of laps

That would imply Aces heat leaders winning 15 out of 18 head to heads against Tigers heat leaders, which seems unlikely to me.

Have you thought of a move Bob?.. Margate, Ramsgate, Westgate

It was because they all play in the Dorset Tiddlywinks league on Mondays and Thursdays!

IYes Holder was still turning but I thought he didn't move off his line and the gap was big enough to get through, I thought Wright tried to close the gap and hit Holder in the process as he was almost past him at the moment of the collision. When Sedgmen got passed by Kurtz there would have been a collision too had Sedgmen not backed off.

They wouldn't have known the correct rule if they had.

Bet of the night on 365 when they had brennan on 8.5 thinking he was IRR in heat 14 unders was 11/10

What utter nonsense... No way will Zmarzlik be replacing Wright... It will be Dan Bewley replacing Etheridge... Three letter first names you see... Dan/Jye... All in the rules... All in the rules...

The NSS sets a high bar and that didn't get near it, one line near the fence. I thought Holder was correctly excluded from that heat. Unlucky as it was 50/50. Kerr was always going to drift out but Wright had his wheels in a straight line a long time prior to the collision, Holder hadn't finished turning the bike.

Why don't you put your stirring spoon back in the kitchen

All jokes aside I think it’s great seeing a rider of that quality over here, they deserve to be paid the big money in Poland if that’s how they perform…and don’t kid yourself that you wouldn’t go elsewhere to do the same job and be paid more money

Absolutely. I don't understand why clubs wouldn't want to run every week right through the summer holidays, my own club is one of the worst and its bizarre. Have the Play Offs in August if need be and run the cups in Sept and Oct. Get the league title decided when kids aren't at school and the weather is good.

Spot on Jason . what ive been talking about ..

Track record in heat 15. Thats some track preparation to have track that fast in last heat. Well done all concerned.

We did for donkeys years and cleaned up , thought we would give some other club a chance to win a trophy. Your next quesrion

Top class average reduction behaviour

Shovlar,Arthur or Lisa collete will no they no everything allegedly.

Could be putting himself in the shop window for next year. Possibly no Edinburgh, team average reductions rumoured, 6.6 average and riding in a cup final. Nothing to lose for Kye IMO

If my memory is correct Hans Anderson obtained an independent medical opinion that he did no have concussion but still Belle Vue objected and were successful in stopping him riding. In the event it made no difference.

Hope bet365 give away free money on the 2nd Leg with a lovely handicap being offered on Sheffield. Hopefully somewhere in the region of -4 to -8.

I was surprised .It was nice to see him going well, the move seems to have done him good, but it was the one meeting that i didn't really want him to. I had a bet on BV win-8 points

ok, hundreds, no doubt about it

Of he I'd going to ride here in 2023 I'd have thought doing it at the NSS would be the big attraction for him. Great track which is big, wide, well prepared and sage.

Sheffield are favourites now, with the Aces injuries

Wright Fitness will be the key to the final..without him it's on a knife edge

Yes I think all we need is to draw most races has been said before!

Sheffield should be delighted with the 12 point defeat. It would've been 16+ if Charles Wright didn't throw away the 3 - 3 and leave Blodorn in Ht 14 all on his own. Sheffield still in with a chance at 12 points down, Slim chance but it's still a chance.

18 points I reckon if charles stays on, probably 20+ if Jye doesn't get injured. I'd if been happy with 12 with a fully fit team, but its a least a lead that gives some hope. Need a good start though.

Can't be arsed to find the twit that posted Lambo isn't good enough for the GP's, and would be the next Chris Harris. But he knows who he is..

I'm no Poole fan, but are you guys seriously trying to suggest the playoffs don't count when considering the best teams this season?!

Simple solution to end the gardening.....2 mins goes on for every single race at the end of the 2mins the green light goes on, if you not ready excluded. If you want to garden then get to the tapes in plenty of time

This has been a massive factor over the last couple of months IMO. Certainly not Poole's fault in any way but not good for the integrity of the competitions. Fixtures need to be much, much better in their planning across all leagues in 2023.
