TJ is what he is. He can be very frustrating, from race to race, let alone meeting to meeting, as we witnessed when he rode for Newcastle. Genuinely a nice bloke, but that doesn't alter the fact he isn't a 9 point rider in the CL, 7-7.5 at best. Berwick, at the minute, have too many weak links in their 1-7 and will struggle to reach the Top 6 with it.6 points

Hope bandits get their team sorted out before the league campaign, got a lot of time for the fans and promotion. I can't imagine etheridge having as bad a home meeting again, looked bit tentative after his injury. Can't help thinking be stronger dropping TJ and a 2 pointer for couple 5 pointers but that was just based on last night's performance may get it right.6 points

We’re paying for fillet, the oap’s want to pay for brisket, and last night, I was served pedigree chum.5 points

It was far more than a little unhappy - I honestly believe it was close to a full blown brawl Credit to Brennan who remained calm and unmoved despite the tantrum from Wright. Any kind of reaction and I think Wright would've lost it and waded in Perhaps not a mountain but certainly a little bigger than a mole hill5 points

The £20 admission across the board and all age groups is a scandal, I`ve said for along time that at Championship level £1 per race is more than adequate so the likes of me should be paying £15 with OAP`s etc paying £10. To ask anymore to pay more is just clouded business thinking and those promotions who do charge £20 across the board without concession seemed to be thinking lets screw what little customers we have left for as much as we can, lets face it most Championship crowds season on season are dwindling and moves like this will see one or two clubs at this level struggle, sadly I believe Berwick will be one. It is to be hoped there will be a reconsideration of this, time will tell. Many supporters I spoke to last night before during and after the meeting seemed to be of the same thinking, this season many will pick and choose the meetings and if last night was anything to go by if Berwick start losing at home they wont bother at all so to that end its played one lost one. I personally didn't renew my season ticket for the first time in the last five seasons, it seems many followed suit. The good news for Berwick is that they wont have to face a team as good as Glasgow every week, but a home defeat to Edinburgh and then Redcar will have some voting with their feet and what is sure is that nothing empties a stadium quicker than a few home defeats. As for the meeting, very impressed by Glasgow, after many years of trying and much money being thrown at it, I think this Glasgow has what it takes to become Championship Champions. As for Berwick a lack of heat winners and heat advantages at home just wont do and one look at the scoring charts will tell you where the weak links are, that will need addressing, either the riders need to change or the club will need to change the riders.5 points

Tom was called up for an FIME meeting in the Czech Republic for GB on the Saturday, it was rained off so he thought it was cancelled. They moved it to today at 9:30am, so he had to go after all and if he didn’t would get an international ban from the FIM. It certainly wasn’t picking and choosing, FIM meeting take priority over everything.4 points

Personally I think this is a bit of a stupid statement, If the promotion can only break even by lumping £5 on the admission prices then maybe they should cut there cloth accordingly too and maybe only run NDL if they can't afford it. In times when some people have to decide between heating there home or eating meals and your going on like £5 is nothing that £5 could be vitally important to some people and if the choice was to keep a roof over my head or lose speedway then I think I know what 99% of people would choose.3 points

Aces clear underdogs again like at Ipswich... Dan will be goosed given what he has done/still doing today and will be lucky to get five.. Lidsey hasn't ridden the track for donkeys, and Charlie and Tom are on each others backs... Brady may get 10 off six... An easy Panthers win in front of a 3000 plus crowd... Getting good at this Shovlar meeting review stuff...3 points

They should wait for new averages then replace Nathan Stoneman, I don’t think he is good enough for the second tier or ever will be.3 points

That's not true. Wright was riding all sorts of lines in heat 10 with Brennan behind him and was doing it deliberately. It almost caused Brennan to lose 3rd to Hume as he had to go wide at one point to avoid Wright on bends 1/2. It was pretty poor and unnecessary behaviour as there was nothing that Brennan did wrong in heat 3. Wright wouldn't have reacted that way towards a seasoned or harder character either as he would have received something back.2 points

PC signing at Stafford Classic Bike Show PETER COLLINS will be on the Retro Speedway stand signing copies of his fast-selling, much-acclaimed autobiography at the Stafford Classic Bike Show next weekend.

Maybe it’s because your all making a mountain out of a mole hill. there’s nothing to see here, wright was a little unhappy with Tom and now it’s over. And they moved on. team mates argue all the time2 points

Depends how you regard speedway meetings that run beyond midnight!2 points

No change there then. How anyone can watch that every week baffles me, it really does. I (rather stupidly) went up to Berwick for the Poole match last year, expecting it to be a good meeting. I think, from memory, there was one genuine pass all night. The track "improvements" were supposed to improve the racing. They clearly haven't.2 points

The racing was awful. The tapes situation was embarrassing too. Went up uneven all night virtually, and the crowd will be well down come May, after we get beat against Edinburgh and Redcar. No concession’s going to spend £20 to watch a crap team on a crap track.2 points

He’s rode enough meetings now to be better than 2 points at home in the championship! He’s just an average rider at best and dunno why teams keep signing him2 points

Line ups confirmed at Ostrow: Gusts will be at 10 for Ostrow. Leon Flint at 16 Rybnik replace Winkler at number 1 with Matej Zagar. It seems there is no chance of Kvech making it from Pardubice in time, though there has now been news from Sportowefakty that there will be a slight delay to "complete track work.."1 point

Yeah agree with that the rise in price for pensioners consessions made my decision not to buy a season ticket very easy plus the cost increased of traveling with fuel etc and even more so after watching last nights total and complete borefest on BSN...1 point

On a lighter note was brennan withholding his services to travel to a meeting on sunday which was not the meeting r/r was granted in the first place??? Riders seem to pick and choose these days!1 point

From my vantage point there was nothing to warrant it - I was filling in the programme and missed seeing it but Kevin Long mentioned it - which made me look up to see what all the fuss was about - one hopes they shook hands and forgot about it soon after!1 point

Stoneman was done a bit there. Tapes went up on the outside much faster than the inside.1 point

Not a lot In the standard cut and thrust of lap 1 Brennan possibly blocked Wights run and effectively ended his challenge for the lead Have seem plenty worse - certainly no need for that reaction From memory on previous visits when with Somerset Wright seemed to have a similar lack of understanding when partnered with Starke....1 point

We are entitled to a minimum of £4, but anything above that is at the direction of the promoters. There was a rain off against Poole last season, for which I have misplaced my voucher, so I don’t know how they distinguish between them (and I don’t remember when that was called off).1 point

This really has been done to death now. The Steve Casey thing i have to agree with most and say it was was wrong. Surely all involved need to get together and sort this out for the good of PC's reputation and Belle Vue's and Speedway as a whole. You takes your pick who is right and wrong, maybe both are a bit of both. PC regardless is without doubt a Speedway and Belle Vue Legend, nothing will change that. Belle Vue conversely are and always have been a terrific Speedway club.1 point
