Criminal Laguta isn’t allowed to ride in the GP’s, the only the only rider that could stop the Bartosz procession

Sorry but a rider with Craig's experience should not have them kind of issues... A mean an EX GP & international rider aswell should have his 2nd bike in condition to win races at championship level & that's not a dig at other riders but his stuff should be top quality

Just an update on Holder. He was taken to hospital with some difficulty breathing and back pain.

Is this one of your 'Happy Days'

Think we can see why Tigers decided that they had enough of him.It wasn’t because of his riding abilities.IMO.

lublin my team from the good old covid days, remember them covid times when you had to hire a cherry picker to watch speedway

Maybe Tomalin offered a £20 note, and Chapman hasn't got change.

Peterborough aren't fielding an under strength side, they are built to the points limit & using r/r for a missing rider, no one could possibly prove that King would outscore r/r! Assuming Sayfutdinov isn't available, this is the strongest team available to them (until they sign a new number one).

And another one...

I don't think I need to copy and paste any of them, but some of the comments on here are just embarrassing.

Count yourself lucky you only have to watch us twice, we've got to watch this dross all season.

For those who weren't at the meeting or didn't stay afterwards you should know some of things Max said in interview post racing. He described himself as "The weak link" and his performances are "Just not good enough". So if anyone thinks he's just collecting the cash and doesn't care about the team, think again.

Who they gonna replace max fricke with ffs? speedway fans are so fickle, imagine in other sports you don’t score a hat trick for a couple of games and you just lose your job

Too busy crying on twitter to sort his equipment out

He should harden the fk up and get on with it. Thats what I think Ben would be saying just now.

Get ya hand in your pocket then.......

People keep saying Tomalin should buy the club, what if Buster has slapped an absolutely outrageous price tag on it? Which he probably has. if Tomalin wants to buy the club and invest in a new stadium and it wont happen because Chapman is asking for way too much then you can absolutely understand why their fans are against him. at the end of the day, it cant be worth much at all. Its a failing business in a stadium that isnt theres. A few rider assets which are next to worth next to nothing anyway, along with a couple of tractors and an airfence? It is more than likely Chapman wants to sell it for more than he paid for it and Tomalin being a good business man wont pay the money for something that he feels isn't worth it. You could view it as Buster being a good businessman and wanting to make a profit too i guess but seeing as he has no intentions of moving the club to a new stadium, and this being there last at the Showground, I would be pretty p****d off as a Peterborough fan as well.

In the beginning there was Russia, well at least from the 14th century. Russia gained an empire. Following the 1917 revolution there was Soviet Russia, from 1918 until 1922, otherwise called the Russian Soviet Republic. In 1922 a group of national republics formed a federal union with its capital in Moscow. The proper title of the federation was the Union of Soviet Socialist Republics, which lasted until 1991. Any ‘national’ speedway or other sporting team during this period should properly have been called U.S.S.R., not Russia or Soviet Russia, although Soviet Union was acceptable as an alternative. By the time the Baltic States had been annexed in June 1940 the U.S.S.R. comprised Armenia, Azerbaijan, Byelorussia (also called White Russia and now Belorus), Estonia, Georgia, Kazakhstan, Kirgizia (now Kyrgystan), Latvia, Lithuania, Moldavia (now Moldova), Russia, Tajikistan, Turkmenistan, Ukraine and Uzbekistan. With the dissolution of the U.S.S.R. in 1991 the constituent members became countries in their own right, including the Russian Federation, with its capital in Moscow. My A-level geography teacher was a lucky (and foolish) man as he took photographs/slides of sites across the U.S.S.R. from Leningrad (now St. Petersburg) in the west to Vladivostok in the east without being caught. He was able to show them in school lessons a lifetime ago.

I wish we was

I can see Torun looking very closely at Emil's current workload. A very poor performance from him today. All of that travelling between the UK and Poland is not helping his Polish league performances.

Great to see three GB riders riding at such a high level and very comfortably to... When Woffy it could be argued is No3, that is a seriously high standard of rider this country has.. We just need at least one more...

The cherry picker hiring men of Lublin all retired after that season...

Heats 13, 14 and 15 in Poland are truly at another level.... Brilliant to watch...

I would give Charles Wright a go...

Superb exhibition of team riding from Woffy in heat 1

I'm no Holder fan, but not sure I would have accepted an apology after being out into the wooden fence with a dangerous move.

Could be a cheap week for Buster...

A very simple alternative is you can't guest against a team in your own group, there would still be up to 6 clubs to choose guests from (depending on fixtures).

Some memory you have

Should be fined for fielding an understrength team, as used to be the case. Chapman should have to pay 50% of the total points money for the whole match regardless of the score.

That would be the worst possible outcome and the end of the club. Whilst the club is still running the local planning policy covers them for the future in so much as a provision of a facility must be found if the stadium and track are to be developed.

Quote GB boss Olly Allen said: “We knew it was going to be tough, and to beat Germany on their own track is no easy feat. “We need to remember we’ve got a bronze medal today – okay, we were quite a few points behind first and second; however, to get here we had to beat Czech Republic in the Czech Republic, and we had to score more points than Sweden and they put a super-strong team out. Quote First of all, beating Germany, who only had 2 scoring riders, isn't that impressive Second of all, scoring only 2 more points than Sweden, who weren't even in the same semi final (considering how much easier Britain's semi final was with Ukraine - no offence) isn't that impressive either Accepting being 27 points behind Poland in the final is not good either Who chooses these teams...? And what is Olly Allen smoking...? Well done Polska. Also nice to see Rasmus Jensen scoring well in the final too.

Archie had an early complication and returned to hospital. He was then discharged. Since then he has had assessments and treatment and now been advised that the breaks are now healing well and he is looking forward to making a good recovery.

Great Post and one that sums up British Speedway entirely. It's a sport that's been on the decline.for years and yet despite all.the warning signs it's just plodded on.until we are left with what we have now. An antiquated, unprofessional, inadequate sport that has been allowed to stagnate while blinkered promoters have done nothing to improve it

The 'Medehamstede Saxons' Real heritage right there

Why introduce gambling. Most have been gambling on speedway for years hence the state its in!

Lublin v Wroclaw on Thursday and I'm working. FFS

Isnt it a stadium with over 20,000 seats? I would think at least 10,000 there... Which is probably double what all meetings added together in the UK top league will get this week...

Wouldn't surprise me this year if Wroclaw and Lublin win every match apart from their 2 fixtures against each other. Those 2 sides are very hot. Only Panicz is a weak link.

Add Sheffield to that list

Agree but outside the top 3 gb really have no one else.

Indeed, which is why facilities need to be 28 days and no more.

Or the fact that King wants too much per point which we all know Chapman won't even consider. He's a total arsehole and wish he would just f**k off

Fricke didn't have a great GP season last year, despite winning the biggest GP of the season. In 2021 however he finished 8th, which is "bang average" of the worlds 15 best riders. He finished ahead of Jason Doyle and Robert Lambert, the Robert Lambert that replaced him because he broke his sternum, bruised his lungs, sprained his shoulder, cracked his shoulder blade and suffered concussion. Dan Bewley's current average: 7.13, Max Fricke: 7.56 "class number one like Pedersen"

Where does this result leave Edinburgh in the Scottish section then. Just asking.

Early season, enthusiasm is (was) high, weather looks set fair for most of the country, people not at work, looking for a leisure activity... 1 Speedway meeting on this weekend in the whole country!

You'd already been told why they said no to Zagar, asking for £100 per point more after agreement is outrageous behaviour.

Spot on.I’ been saying this for weeks…

Please shoot me down if I'm wrong, but watching the videos of Workington. It looks a beautiful set up, big, fast, wide open track... But am I the only one who's worried that it looks like it's going to be another dust bowl...? I am not getting at any of the lads and lasses who have worked extremely hard to get it open, it's just a little concerning that's all... Please tell me I'm wrong if I am and it will be set up differently for race days...
