I'm sure if you email the FA they might be able to do something

Sheffield have been saved by the weather there, had a feeling it could of been a big Panthers win

Yes it's early days and nowt is won in April/May however this Birmingham team as it stands will not win anything, Yes they have a good No1 but his high average was built on being very very good around his former home Track at Leicester, take away that home track average and it is/was obvious to most people his average would drop, but that high average limits the remaining team building possibilities, that is the start of where the team building has imo gone wrong, yes it was also thought that this would be a strong team at home and that they could get the odd away point. I will say again, I have a lot of time for Laurence Rogers and he spends many hours doing good things within Speedway, but a good team manager he is NOT, whoever makes the decisions at Birmingham Speedway should be on the phone to Alun Rossiter and do whatever it takes to get him in as Team Manager at Birmingham, because take it from me Birmingham people will not spend their hard earned money on watching this team as it presently stands. I'm sorry if this sounds harsh, but something needs to be done otherwise I can see the West Midlands being without Speedway in the not to distant future.

Oakes Article this week is on Wolverhampton

From his last 10 matches, same as every other rider

You imagine or yoy know? Is it official or not? I'd imagine that someone will land on the moon again but don't know that it will be May 1st or 4th....

That and losing KERR was the final straw.

Greg Blair does come in for Stoneman who faces a few weeks out. Not so sure what all the fuss is about, its a comfortable home win.

to be fair to LR he didn't say which years playoffs

We'll wait to see. If it is the BBC forecast you are looking at I find their predictions increasingly inaccurate. The Met Office is a much better gauge, dry and sunny for Monday

Very healthy crowd for the previous 2 meetings and plenty of OAPs amongst it so they were not put off by the new fangled internet and no cash.Sometimes I think people like to make out that the old are incapable of any new tech forgetting that most have been using it for years my opinion

Riss hasn't got concussion. He has a low white blood cell count which they think has been caused by an infection.

A good sized crowd can look small there as it has a high capacity and the back straight stand holds quite a few. Probably still around 2-2.5k there.

Which one?

None of our business really with privately owned companies... Agree though, it would be intriguing to know the viewing numbers

Depends if his van can do so many meetings in a short space!

You would hope so, it's their product to sell... wasn't their somebody watching from Canada last night? Hard to imagine that they would have attended

Excellent

On the Sheffield thread?

Just who within the club actually put that side together and thought 'oooh yeah that looks good'? Awful side...sorry.

Omg,,, a Panthers past meeting popped up on my you tube earlier,,,, it was good Friday 22 4 11,, v Coventry,,,, it was absolutely brilliant,,,, it reminded me just how good the showground track used to be before it got bustered. If you don't remember it or wasn't around to see it back then,,, I urge you to check it out,,, absolutely brilliant meeting.

I wish everyone involved all the luck in the world and a very big well done, and good luck to Workington in the coming season, whilst its obviously a work in progress "Rome was'nt built in a day" the main part is already done..

Leicester running with their own contracted seven riders? A ridiculous situation... There should be rules about this... The crowds these days expect to see loads of lads from neither of the clubs appearing that night... Won't end well all this, you mark my words.

The Stars to win in a canter…

BBC contracted out its weather service to the cheapest bidder= metro group, a few years ago, ending their contract with the metoffice,. You get what you pay for comes to mind.

No- Fanseat is excellent https://www.fanseat.com/speedway

Like to know where you get your information from? But it's probably in your head LOL . F Lindgren will not ride over here as he as already stated. But your post's are good for a laugh.

He’s got a viral infection.

No & we have a good guest lined up. ................... (you lot know A LOT about using guests.) '23 Tosh

Good to see Dutch Mika scoring well too

Unbelievable how Chapman has not only ruined the track, but the club as well. Despicable man with no regards to supporters, only interested in ripping off fans and lining his own pockets.

I’d be more shocked if she actually got a decision correct. By far the worst ref

Sorry Birmingham but you are not keeping Zach!! Done good tonight beating Wright twice and Danny King.

Maybe KL riders should agree to refund their supporters admission fee after their woeful " home track" performance - just like the Tottenham Hotspurs players ?

I'm not so sure so I've decided on just limiting my bet to £100 each way

Has he silently retired ?

The price of land in this area is ridiculous. I bet prospective promoters have looked. Best thing they could do would be buy Poole Stadium. Cost a pretty penny mind. Then you would see why costs are so expensive!!!!!!!!!!

Where though? I do agree we need to own our own stadium though as otherwise you are just looking at one season at a time or maybe 2 if you pay the rent for a couple of seasons at a time.

Douglas guested at Leic last Thur so surely not eligible

More to the point, in this day and age where EVERYTHING is expected to be available to the public (often through social media), I don't need to SEE things as proof. I know who and what to believe, as I'm not one of these crazy conspiracy theorists who refuses to believe fact and reality...

Good post, very clear.

Personally, I wouldn't give PC any money after his shocking behaviour. The apology made it worse in my opinion, as it's clearly only an attempt to protect book sales.

Good grief. A 35 year old fued There have been Mafia or Albanian blood feuds that haven’t lasted that long !!!

The current Belle Vue management have only been in place for 6 years and have no connection to past management teams! And there we have the truth. Collins' beef was with John Perrin, 35 years ago in 1988. Yet he has continued his petty vendetta against every new promotion that Belle Vue have had over the past 35 years. Everyone is at fault except him. And he will continue his vendetta against every future promotion. The Pope and the Archbishop of Canterbury could buy Belle Vue tomorrow, but unless he is given Sainthood and 100+ pals can come along, they will be attacked. A great, great rider, but a sad, sad, little man.

Although we have disagreed over some aspects commented upon in the book (and elsewhere) ie "free" admission to ex-riders I think that some observations in your above post are to be congratulated.

Thanks Tony. And I appreciated then and am happy now to acknowledge your gestures. You were, of course, as much an innocent party to what happened as was Steve but I did and do believe that what happened needed to be made public. The one man who should have apologised has remained silent. As I have said elsewhere, PC’s behaviour was unforgivable and I am not alone being shocked and disgusted by it. I know he’s got a huge chip on his shoulder about the NSS, but you don’t take your bile out on one of the guys who has worked flat out to achieve a reconciliation.

I am truly devastated at the loss of Steve. He was my friend and travelling companion on several memorable domestic and overseas trips. He had no side to him but was a straightforward gentle gentleman. He worked tirelessly to get Peter Collins to come back to Belle Vue - and don’t believe PC’s propaganda, he was told he would always be welcomed at the NSS as would any ex-Belle Vue rider. What wasn’t on offer though was his demand, not request, that nearly 200 of his cronies, some who’d had no involvement with speedway let alone Belle Vue, also got in free. Steve tried many times to talk sense into PC, including going round to his house, but PC would not change his mind, possibly because he’d backed himself into a corner. Steve was never one for taking offence and went to the Glossop signing of PC’s book. Having paid his £20, PC scrawled in his copy “Steve, I will never forgive you for what you have done to me and my family. I will never go to BV if you are there.” Steve shared a photo of the inscription but then said to me that he’d enjoyed reading the book. That is the sort of man that Steve was and I hope that, although Steve will never be at BV again, neither will PC as he’ll be barred. I am not alone in knowing that I will never forgive PC for what he wrote. Many men become world speedway champion, there’s one every year, but there will only ever be one Steve Casey. I knew Steve’s cancer would take him sooner rather than later but am still stunned that we have lost him. The world is a much sadder place today.
