Class act, never had any doubts...

Well Buster won't get a penny off me going to the bird cage.

Maybe to help out his mate Buster who was left without a no 1. Once he had ridden for the club guests could then be used when he "gave up". On arriving at the Purplecats, he maybe realised all was not well so the crash on a poorly prepared track then gave Nicki / Buster the ideal opportunity needed to leave, all be it quicker than 1st planned. MT silence on the matter speaks volumes imo....

Useless that Worrall,, only getting 14 points,,,, sack him

Surprised he got his name right …usually when he commentates he gets the wrong riders

That's us Panthers fans tears

And the moral of that story... get a car

I also think the BSN have done a good job reporting on it and making abit of a story about that. You get nothing of the sorts from the BSPL site and the speedway star.

Ice Hockey thrives on such incidents... In the US they became very focused on losing that image until they got a fan backlash, with the fans wanting such fights to happen, as it added to the spectacle and the intensity of the rivalries.. Speedway clubs willingly share riders with each other virtually every night so making the sport one that generates passionate rivalry will naturally be difficult to achieve, therefore a bit of personal rivalry can add to it..

Oh you are very welcome (said she sarcastically) Thanks for ignoring my reply telling you I could not do so and suggesting you contact Phil

Richie's won me over after the interview he gave about Nicki.

I’d have him in the team over a journeyman like cook any day of the week

No one in double figures for the Aces.. A very solid team effort... Rowe will have the beating of most No7's, so worth a permanent spot I would say.. Mulford can then develop via the Championship and NDL..

That's got BV's season going then. Good performances all down the order. Special shout out to Anders Rowe who looks a decent addition in the RS position - can he replace Mulford permanenty?

Spoken like a true stirrer.

Typical KK, shows up only when he wants to, and only on his terms.

Don't mind any option to keep Panthers going, but I'm not prepared to line Busters pockets if we are finished after this season, & a lot more fans will probably feel the same.

Crawl back to the Foxhole

This. I have shared a few messages with him recently and he's not planning on going anywhere but like us all is frustrated

.....and into the KL team! Sorry but that was handed on a plate

I didn't have one in those days and rode everywhere. Bradford and back in a day was the longest journey to speedway for me, 4 hours each way. Always been a biker but got a car when I got a wife

Considering so many teams promoters were not impressed when Plymouth did it last season, I am surprised they haven't changed the ruling on it.

Weather the home team covers the cost of all riders !! Who covers the cost of the away support.. fans out of pocket again & we wonder why our beloved sport is on the downward spiral in the UK .. but thats the great British weather tho

Emptied tonight, about 5pm.

How can his private life be nothing to do with us when he is parading his family life in a reality tv show?

Stop talking crap and grow up.

Buster and Peterborough are the victims in this case. I actually feel sorry for Buster and the fans on this one. I must of took a fair bit of work to get him over, and for fook all

Awful racing though. Not sure if just down to track conditions or that is the standard?

Worrall deserves to stay in the team based on his honest interview after the meeting today.

Ipswich -2 leciester -8 KK under 5… has to be worth a shot at 2/1! Brennan under 7

That would make sense, so naturally won't happen lol!

Tomorrow's two scheduled meetings have been called off. The restaging dates are a Sunday and a Tuesday, so looks like they aren't going straight to a default of Thursday every time at the moment.

Don't forget to check the tidal times when you go to Plymouth & Poole

Don't think you can pay card anywhere.

Pretty sure that if it's a late call off the home team has to cover all expenses.

incorrect. Oxford will pay both side's travel expenses .

No wonder the 'speedway shambles' twitter acc has their profile photo of Buster Well it was, think it might be Godfrey now looking at it. To much choice!! lol.

Everything changed when Chapman put a block on the Holder signing. MT went silent at that point, so it's quite possible an agreement that allowed MT & co to build the team was withdrawn by Chapman, or MT and Chapman never initially communicated on possible 'out of bounds signings. Either way, it's a monumental disaster for the supporters, unless they can pull a rabbit out of the hat, and sooner rather than later...

There is a very nice ex Speedway track, recently shaled sat right between Peterborough and Coventry. Just under an hour from each and untapped potential from Northampton. Surprising no one has had a look at Braefield.

My worst rain-off experience was in 1990 travelling from Ipswich to Reading on a Monday night. I had persuaded my Dad to join me in riding to Reading on our motorcycles, which was an effort considering he only rode in the dry and local journeys only. Having left work and rushed home, checked the meeting was on and the weather forecast seemed fine, I called for Dad and we set off in the sunshine. When we were about 90 miles into the journey and on the M25 it started light rain but darker clouds were ahead. The rain stopped and we pulled off the M25 for a chat - Dad said he was going to turn back if it rained again but we set off again towards Reading when it did start raining again. It was only light so I carried on all the way to Smallmead where it was chucking it down and the meeting was called off (about 7pm). I then had the 2.5 hour journey back in absolute heavy rain, waterproofs leaked at the crotch after a time and my legs, feet, arms and face/neck were soaked and so cold I struggled to move by the time I got home, with a filthy bike to boot! I passed Dad on the way back, on the A12, as he was doing about 40mph due to reduced visibility - I was maxing out at 60mph, visor up. We never went to another meeting together on our bikes although I did on my own.

The statement is a grim read for any speedway fan, let alone Peterborough supporters. A huge shame.

Phil's certainly famous for 'closing doors' - it would take a lot to affect my view on his credibility.

I was under the impression that if the ref fined a rider then no further penalty could be impossed.

You put your Becker in... You take your Becker out... In, Out, In Out, then shake it all about... Etc etc etc ..

they are/were both perfectly legal, doesn't mean either of them are correct

When the Aces get dialled in at home they will no doubt kick out plenty of their 15 point plus victories. Similar to Wolves, getting the bonus point should mostly be within their grasp most weeks... When the track gets drier during the warmer weather, and consistent every week during the "peak season" for racing volume, the Aces seem to kick on and deliver larger victory margins... They certainly wont be unhappy with no play offs in October this year I would think as when the track is colder and more damp the scores are often closer.. For me, they do appear one heat leader light and, given the 'number sixes' this year at most tracks, dont look like having any advantage by always having one of their "four second strings" in their tesm at reserve...

As Private Eye said "The City Of Screaming Tyres"

...reminds one of the days when some riders added nitro to their fuel and was quite common apparently before it was made illegal.

He was Stuart Robson's Doctor in real life.

Oh I see! The irony was lost on me. I have corrected same.
