Should have just binned this off if you’re not going to hold it at every track. Three clubs get a home advantage while the others don’t, just devalues the whole thing.

About 8 pints and a few rum and cokes

Little Holder always been a complete knob end. Thinks he’s better than he is. Big brother also now a very angry man and past it. Sad as used to like them both. Just to add to the Oz egos, Tungate also always been a miserable, moaning twit. Wouldn’t want any of them at Peterborough. Come over here and think they own the place.

Make sure you come up for air

Doyley robbed

Its a travesty that Bailey/Kemp/Thompson are not fixed up.

What he was or wasn't last season is entirely irrelevant. By virtue of the Diamonds expulsion he effectively didn't exist last season. There was a lot of misinformation from the Diamonds promotion so who really knows but my understanding was that the Diamonds promotion didn't have a licence to employ work permit riders but could sign Congreve because he was able to take out an ACU licence. Not sure on what basis. There was plenty of content about it on the Diamonds 2022 thread at the time with most expecting his to be an assessed 2.00 as a result. The fact that he ended up being an assessed 4.00 didn't really matter as the Diamonds were incredibly under strength anyway. As I stated before it probably made the Diamonds line up look more acceptable than it ever was in practice. I think the key point is he couldn't have been a foreign rider because the Diamonds promotion didn't have the appropriate sponsors licence to employ such a rider. There really is no point in trying to make sense of any of this. The fact that he appears to have been given an assessed NL average which doesn't fit any known criteria tells you everything you need to know. It's all just made up to suit.

Arch, you need to remember,, Poole have never had a bad rider,,, they are always brilliant, or going to be brilliant,,, and if they have a bad meeting,,, there is always an excuse why.

Maybe Gary May had similar experiences with Keleher as Matt Ford did?!

Didn’t think it would take you long!

Tungate is one horrible, horrible little bellend.

Small man syndrome

See on u tube the little s--t Tungate at it again trying to wallop J Holder after race.Typical he likes giving it but carnt take it.

Yeah like many others in the Ukraine

And therein lies the problem with diluting the points limit again. Improve your average lose your place it is just a ridiculous scenario, what other sport penalises for improvement.

Well done to Jack Holder new Australian champion. Good start to the new year.

Agree completely.

Doyle finished 1, 1, 1, 5 jack finished 2, 5, 2, 1 for me I prefer a scoring system that emphasises winning meetings like the Grand Prix system its like if they played the ashes and England won 4-1 but in the match the Aussies won they scored so many more runs that overall they scored the most runs and were awarded the series

How do you make that out ?

Hope Jack's protected his toe dont want a recurrence of his long standing injury problems .

I'm pleased for Congreve he was well out of his depth in the championship, no idea how he has his current average but personally I can see him putting a couple of points on it. The league looks fairly strong which is good.

Think you'll be surprised by Complin, I'm expecting him to up his average this year

I don’t believe you’ll have long to wait..

In a word @Neila yes But a hope the club aren't relying on you to flush the bar wid profit on the back of your drinking exploits cos av seen you in action and between you an that Barry av spilt more down me tie... When you's won the money draw down at Rye House you's didnt even splash the cash... not one pint was offered... and I pulled your ticket out of the bag... Regards THJ

Correct, although it would be nice if the management named the team asap to stop all the drivel being posted on here

Dreadful choice of venues sorry, Belle Vue or Peterborough should of been included

Rye House closed due to an overambitious and incompetent promotion. Some of us are still trying to repair the damage.

Your welcome to him

You also said Holder “definitely 100%” wasn’t at Peterborough.

I'd say Jason Doyle, Jack Holder, Ipswich fans, Sheffield fans, Lublin fans, Krosno fans, Aussie fans, I could go on

Tomorrow at 9am.

The plan is. Is to have no plan. That way the plan can not fail. Whatever the plan was or wasn't it certainly failed Nathan. I can only thank him for his efforts last season and wish him well for this. Remember Nathan, once a Pirate always a Pirate. I for one would welcome him back on board anytime. .

Who cares???

Certainly did. He made the top 10 of riders who competed in all 4 rounds. In 10th place. Mind you, there were only 12 (including Michael West who I’ve not heard of) who did that. I can’t imagine why no one’s signed the near 30 year old Keleher

Completely agree when all 3 improved there averages from last year.

Well obviously it had to be TBC, as i posted it as the riders crossed the line in the final and it was a world exclusive. However i needed to cover myself in case i had made my 1st error ever- which of course i hadn`t

I told you that 30 mins ago

I think Carpman is Carl Johnson personally, Could easily be Michael Tomalin though. Carpman knows the exact dates of team announcements so Carpman is clearly involved at the club.

He said the weekend for the next announcement.

Trouble is away riders prob like Birmingham more than Plymouth, so will be harder to get a big home average like he did at Plymouth.

Alfie is so much better than just a CL reserve... He's probably Birmingham's best rider after Nick and Justin imo... Most likely to push on and be '3rd heatleader' although I even agree he's not that good... Very good number 2 or solid number 4 at best...

Didn't Doyle become world champion while riding in the UK

Stronger in the fact we have a No 1 who should ride most weeks and not rely on Guests. Sedgeman arrived in UK late and hungry and it showed in his Racing. The only niggle with him is that at times in the past he's sat in a comfort zone. Maybe he has now matured and realised he has to give 100% all the time. Riders like Bowtell certainly ride with passion and hunger and possibly we haven't had that in the recent past. Much will depend on Neisen staying injury free and James Wright or Neilsen becoming a solid and relaible engine room.

Please stop mentioning Bachelor...I can't think of anything worse...

Close the door on your way out then.

Don't think you'll have to worry about that

4 good riders so far. Well chuffed for George as well. Yes he had a tough start to UK speedway but he was showing signs of improvements before we went under. Hopefully he has good machinery with him this year, because if he does, Im confident he will be a steal on 4.5 avge

So we've got at least three Panthers fans who claim to be in the know and they all disagree entertaining stuff!

Should still be an NDL rider... If a match is arranged knowing riders are already elsewhere then there should be some kind of "punishment"... Just another one of those self inflicted decisions that end up making the sport look contrived and Mickey Mouse when Bomber, Rory or Scott turn up adhoc to ride for one of the clubs on show.. There are enough issues to face given the structure of the sport in the UK without making more self inflicted ones...
