You’ve gotta love Jason Doyle. British Speedway legend. Not many treat OUR league with respect like he does. He even turned up last night for a challenge at Poole where it didn’t matter a jot, and still rode his heart out to a full 15 point max. What a servant he’s been and we’ll all miss him when he’s gone. Can’t see others at the top table that does what he does here. We should all get behind him at the GP’s!10 points

Thats a fantastic effort to get that meeting on.9 points

What's really worrying is that if Kings Lynn and Peterborough merged, taking all the best riders with them, they'd still be crap!6 points

I thought Cook looked a tidy little rider and was on the pace and improved with each ride, he certainly tried harder then most of his team mates that's for sure6 points

It’s very nearly a whole year without a win. And it’s very possible the way things are going. I feared you wouldn’t finish the season and every week passing is not changing my thinking.5 points

Yeah and given the farce it became that was such a shocking decision4 points

Bit off topic but i hope you all turn out for Sundays' British Youth Championship fixture. Last year's event was poorly attended despite it being a very entertaining 25 heat meeting. I think last years price was £10 so it was well worth the entrance fee. And supporting the next generation of riders is no bad thing.4 points

I believe that this current team ranks as one of the worst in our illustrious history. Coupled with that, one of the worst promoters. What should be a final year of celebration and happy memories is quickly turning into a season which will leave a nasty taste in many supporters mouths. Promotion has let our club and supporters down big time and should be held responsible for the shambolic mess we find ourselves in now.4 points

Hats off to Bob Ellis - trackman at Foxhall Foxhall underwater at lunchtime and in full race order by start time Shows what can be done by a professional committed promotion with the right team and the right knowledge and skills4 points

Enjoyed that cracking meeting3 points

Up until track grade that was a brilliant meeting. Bit of everything you want to see in a speedway meeting, well done Scunthorpe. Great win for the stripes, everyone contributing great to see. Marcin getting to grips with UK tracks too. Great nights entertainment3 points

The fixture list at most tracks are a shambles no doubt it will have an effect on crowd levels.IMO. don’t think the heat six abandonment is a reason ?IMO.Poor weather forecasts put a lot of fans off these days.IMO.Riders attitudes have a bigger knock on effect,it does takes much to make them want to go home.Fans are wary these days.3 points

I’d like to see joe Thompson get team kevlars and bike covers and get the rest of the season regardless. he is a great trier and worth persevering with. 20 years ago we did the same with a young Danny king and have had 17 loyal seasons. I can see a lot of similarities3 points
-
Well we are missing the big elephant in the room here!..... ..... Cook is also a Poole rider and we know Gavan has issue with them! I bet he is secretly gutted that Cook got as many as 6!3 points
-
That's very harsh, he was their best rider given his lack of experience at Foxhall and first year in premiership. He was pressuring riders ahead, made a couple of good starts and passed as well. He was only passed by iversen in heat 9 because he was trying to overhaul Rew and made a mistake. Peterborough's weaknesses are elsewhere.3 points
-
Works well, I don't think so! Crowds are down because of the lack of regular fixtures. If meets are going to be cancelled in May when 3mm of rain are forecasts we'll be racing in poor weather in October again.3 points

So let’s see if I’m getting this it’s the same competition but with a totally different name and it’s not a jubilee year. Struggling with that. Glasgow felt at the time it was inappropriate to continue under the sad passing off our Queen and to celebrate it as a jubilee cup, under the circumstances I thought at the time and still do that it was the correct thing to do.2 points

Pity they didn't show the same enthusiasm for the Jubilee Trophy last year... Glasgow shouldn't even be in the competition this year!2 points

Everything about Ipswich is spot on these days. The image of the team Kevlars,bike covers all matching gives the whole thing a huge air of professionalism. The website & social media feeds are fantastic. A huge well done on how the club has developed under Louis junior. Would certainly give the polish lot a run for their money…..2 points

Lack of use and interest? Just the sort of thing AEPG need to bulldoze the speedway infrastructure and claim that there isn't the interest to save it or provide an alternative elsewhere: excellent negotiating policy and position!2 points

Your the idiot mate..just a keyboard warrior..you wouldn't say boo to a goose to in real life so do us all a favour and stay off the Panthers chat because you are boring the s*** out of everyone on here.2 points

He wanted other riders in the team and that was essentially black balled by good old buster, with that in mind he didn’t want too be team manager and as previously stated it was only the morning of P&P that he agreed too do it so rob Lyon in my opinion isn’t too blame for anything at all! Wouldn’t blame him if he walked away2 points

So Cook should do better from his 6 rides on first visit,,, so from that Hume must have been awful,, as he only got 4 from his 6 rides,,, and he has been there plenty of times2 points

It is a matter of objective fact that for almost 25 years the second tier has for most seasons consisted of a league competition, a knockout competition and a secondary competition featuring all tracks in regional mini leagues culminating in a final. The latter has had about six different names, but substantially has been the same competition.1 point

Thank you, I'm sure it wasn't there at 7.15pm Thanks for the link1 point

That was my thinking. It seems to be a pretty low bar to become a member.1 point

If they’d have uploaded those pictures yesterday afternoon and announced a postponement, nobody would have batted an eyelid. To think when I got there just before 7 and Bob was watering the track is quite remarkable.1 point

My husband did 2/3 years ago at a social function organised by a mutual friend - I won’t write what his opinion of him was that day - but not complementary to say the least!1 point

As many say your Poole blinkered for sure you would defend Putin's actions if he was a Poole Pirate !!1 point

Oxford has confirmed that Jenkins is fit to race, so that's a relief. Belle Vue Colts: Jack Smith, Luke Muff, Sam Hagon, Matt Marson, James Pearson, Jack ShimeIt, Freddy Holder. Oxford Chargers: Jordan Jenkins, Jacob Clouting, Henry Atkins, Jody Scott, Ryan Kinsley, Luke Killeen, Jacob Fellows.1 point

I recall Brandon Stadium successfully staging one of the British GP's years ago. Perhaps speedway should get behind speedway returning to Brandon, which has a capacity of 24,000 and could be the new Wembley for British speedway!1 point

Yes all BSN Series Semi Finals will be on BSN (funnily enough) plus of course the final, and included in the Championship subscriptions Scunthorpe V Glasgow Fri 12th Poole v Redcar Weds 17th Glasgow v Scunthorpe Fri 19th Redcar V Poole Sat 20th1 point

Couldn't agree more. Top rider, top bloke.1 point

Have you approached him for a chat ??1 point

I would sack Rob Lyon tonight. He is not getting the best out of Hans and Niels. Bring back Trevor Swales. Trevor knows how to get the best out of Hans and Niels. Hans had his best ever season in British Speedway under Trevor Swales. I would also look to tempt Ryan Sullivan out of retirement. I saw him at the Showground a few weeks ago and he looks fit as a fiddle. No fat on him whatsoever.1 point

Bjerre's on Buster's naughty boy list and Bjerre wont ride for him anyway1 point

Exactly that they've saved a killing with him having missed so many meetings. If the 3k a meeting was true that's £15k minimum they've saved, I really can't imagine they've spent anywhere near than on guests and R/R1 point

Jesper Olsen by a mile. Not a superstar but arguably the most exciting rider we had during the Shawfield era. All action, great entertainer, it was a huge disappointment that he didn't come back when the Tigers reformed in 1997.1 point

I worked it out recently it costs me £30 a month to go watch my local football team in the championship whether it's 1, 2, 3 or 4 home games in that month Where as if I want to Cross the Humber to go to Scunthorpe speedway for 1 meeting it costs me over £30 with £20 enterance, £1 programme, £3 bridge toll then 70+ miles worth of petrol So football isn't always as expensive as speedway.1 point
