Unbelievable speedway match on the best track in the World.

That's about right... Moaning about the way the guest facilty is consistently applied, rather than running the sport with no need for guest facilities at all... If they spent more time promoting the sport instead of making up ludicrous rules which means lengthy conversations around how to apply them, (with all the subsequent fall out and ridicule around them making the whole thing look pointless), then maybe, just maybe, the sport would be in much ruder health.. And maybe tracks wouldn't close so frequently due to landlords not getting the rent potential that 3000 fans at each meeting could let the clubs pay.. Interesting article in the (excellent again), Speedway Star with the KL co promoter saying that with 7 teams there isnt enough riders.. What nonsense.. The whole of Europe and Scandinavia is opened up with fixed race nights.. The fact those riders might not want to come over definitely isnt down to a lack of rider numbers.. And if 7 man teams means not enough cover for replacements then simply reduce the amount of riders per team which will then create a surplus... No. Let's keep doing the same thing each year and get that fiddle out whilst the place burns around us.. Because that works well doesnt it?

2 massive meetings at home for the Bandits, within the next 10 weeks, let’s hope he’s okay.

David Howe didn’t actually

'Vatcher, Vatcher, the guest snatcher'. (For those of a certain age).

Where i stand mostly XXL

No GP this year at Wroclaw is very disappointing. Appreciate they have the World Cup, but this track should showcase the sport.

Brilliant heat 13 pass from Bewley

Haha. Maybe just keep doing the draw until you get the right result bit like the SNP

No more Bandits meetings until the 17th of June no wonder speedway is going downhill.

Dear god, build a bridge and get over it man

Dan Bewley is a special talent, seems a great kid too

Hope your watching latest match.Then you might stop talking sh#te.

We're speedway fans. You could make a Harold Macmillan reference and we'd still be of THAT age.

Due to the weather we MIST the last 4 heats of the Bullets meeting

Two things about this story... 1. Peter Oakes has a nose for a story and is still highly effective at shoe horning speedway into the tabloids. Top work 2. It's absolute balderdash. Speedway will not be returning to Wembley. We (speedway fans) are a dying breed. It would do well to get 40,000 into Wembley. The crowds are shrinking and the average age of the crowd is rising. The numbers don't add up. Wembley gets repurposed to put on days and days of Harry Styles/Ed Sheeran/Adele type gigs and gets 80k turning up night after night. It's low risk, high return. Does anyone seriously believe they would repurpose Wembley, including laying of a track for one night of speedway? There might have been a chance when the new Wembey opened around 2007 and they were desperate to recoup money. Not anymore. The Principality is as good as it will get for speedway in the UK.

Yeah, for all the great stuff the Glasgow promotion do, the actual promotion of the club and its activities has really dropped the last couple of years. They need to get back to it if they want new people coming through the doors.

1st semi in Varkaus in Finland on Saturday July 15th meeting starts at 11am UK time Teams are Finland, GB, Denmark, France, Holland, Norway and Sweden. 2nd semi is at Nagyhalasz on Saturday September 2nd Final is at Opole on Sunday October 1st

You do in Wroclaw, but agree he's hit and miss at other tracks, although he did win the big meeting yesterday to be fair.

Said it before... Build a track around an American Football pitch....

Has it been confirmed which team Lawson will ride for in this one Worst draw possible for the Bears (see all points above) but hopefully Riss will be back so at least we can have a full team of our own riders. Mickey Mouse cup anyway* (* I reserve the right to change my mind on this)

Another Nicki

Woffy doesn’t like to mix it these days IMO.

Wembley would draw big crowd without doubt, lets hope it happens. Done with boring Cardiff and the rip off hotel prices which are jacked up for GP weekend !

Maybe Wolverhampton signing Nicholls initially as 28 day replacement then asking for the team to be declared back to Becker when Chris Harris was used in the KOC against BV didnt sit very well with Vatcher at the time

We've a rotten record at scunny and Poole so probably Redcar might be fav, but then redcars 2nd strings would probably fancy Glasgow too!! Could be some cracking meetings actually 3 proper racetracks plus Poole...

Horrendous fixture planning. What are they thinking.

Real shame that the promotion didn't set an admission price to get me there to use them but hey ho.

Sounds like might be more on the inside of the fence looking out rather than the other way on. One of these weeks we have to announce the crowd changes to the team.

They had run out of paint and the supplier couldn't get the exact same shade to match the existing so the meeting would of no doubt been off for this reason anyway

Ipswich will take it personally soon.

I assume, The covers covered the greyhound track surface to prevent shale getting on it, if you don’t have speedway, you don’t need to protect the greyhound surface from flying shale.

Is it not Hepburn’s daughter.?

It is now off, early decision made.

Went down to press and practice, I've seen the track before,but not seen live bikes going round, just WOW. !! The viewing is high up from wherever you stand, the track is smooth and looks to have racing lines all over. Roll on next Saturday good luck to the team and management . Just hope the weather gods know the speedway is starting

Berwick and Birmingham to battle for the wooden spoon for certain

Danes not advertised as missing, as otherwise people might put two and two together regarding the call-off on a fine evening...

Yes that's right. They are building a new track on the opposite of the current track. Should be in a shape like Vojens, so much rounder then the current track. They will have a opening with practice at the first weekend of june. Dutch Championship schedules for the first weekend of july with the traditional golden helmet at the end of september.

The current trend seems to be to delay any negative news until the last minute with team line ups not being publicised until the afternoon. In this case the rain off meant they never had to reveal that the Danes were missing. Official FB posts went out of their way to avoid any mention - write up highlighted Chris Harris, Tom Brennan, Sam Masters, Scott Nicholls only and while there were plenty of photos there were none of Ben or Claus; its poor that we need to rely on fans "in the know" to keep us informed.

A much needed win after last weeks debacle Slightly lucky in the sense that Scunthorpe signed a perennial scorer of zero at Berwick in Max Clegg earlier this week but it was good to see Jorgensen looking quicker than he has done in previous weeks Coles continues to work hard and Leon and Rory did enough to back him up Scunthorpe very much a four man team with Douglas very unlucky not to bag a maximum due to bike troubles Quite easily the most entertaining meeting of the season so far which certainly helped

Heard it arrived but they couldn't find a left handed screwdriver so couldn't fit it ....

watched a few league matches at Wroclaw. Stadium absolutely rammed. If season ticket holders get first dabs - only going to be Poles at the Final......

Clegg & Ablitt coming up with 1pt between them what a poor start from the pair of them. Absolutely certain Joe would have managed to get at least 2pts so doubling their woeful debut efforts. Robs dropped a clanger with these changes. Give it 28 days and we will be making more changes because the team average will tumble. Of course that means that June will likely be a write off away from home for us. If Dillion Rumls kit is in the UK I would see if he fancies it ? Or what about Geno Manzares hes already in Sweden is he not ? For me I would much rather watch Joe Thompson develop at Scunny than have Clegg or Ablitt who I have no allengence to at all. Might as well fill in with guests very disappointing.

Bartek levels above everybody, its not even close. Unbelieveable talent

Nothing surprises me in speedway these, especially when it comes to fixture arrangements, but even this beggars belief.

That is crazy! Could almost fit a school summer holiday in that gap

Narrowly beat a 4man Scunthorpe team at home, struggling to find something to get behind at the moment, Col. Changes must be made!

I used to be Gutted when a Panthers meeting was called off especially on a Bank Holiday...not these days.

Oh really, perhaps you ought to read the latest Wolves statement.

I've put it on 'ignore'!
