Didn’t see the incident so can’t comment apart from saying that someone calling themselves Mr Blobby calling someone else a clown seems quite ironic.4 points

Enjoyed Leszno v Czestochowa. Some good racing but despite Kolodziej being head & shoulders above any other rider present the home team were well beaten. Don't get why most posters on this forum don't like Kolodziej, he's better to watch than most Poles. 3 points

To be fair I don’t think he’s a new addition as he had a “disagreement” with him at Plymouth in 2021 I seem to remember. Every team would be better with a Charles Wright in it in my opinion, proper racer and always gives 100%.3 points

Having only 10, out of the 14 riders who should have been there riding, was never going to stimulate much interest.. Add in the score from the first leg and an off night for BV and the crowd was always going to be lower than usual.. Bottom line is of course that if the Promoter's themselves dont see their competition's relevant enough to have their own riders there, then the fans understandably can feel the same, and be "elsewhere" too...3 points

First time i've visited Glasgow this season and i left thinking this could be the year barring injuries that the Tigers lift some silverware. Bomber for me has always been box office regardless of where he rides, he's just a class act and worth the admission money on his own. Along with the in form duo of Basso and Brennan they form a strong heat leader trio. Glasgow seems to bring out the best in big Claus Vissing who along with Marcin Nowak form strong second strings. Ace Pjiper was very impressive tonight for someone 16 years old and as a Worky fan i'm gonna enjoy watching his progress for the Comets NDL team while the reborn Lee Complin is not far away from scoring bigger points. Bearing in mind it was cloudy most of the afternoon i was disappointed that there was dust from heat 1. Some of the racing was top drawer especially from Bomber and Tom Brennan. Scunny with the exception of flying Ryan Douglas and the early races of MPT were generally disappointing.The previous comments regarding their recent team changes are well justified in my opinion. At £20 pound admission and £3-50 for a programme its just as well the racing was generally entertaining.2 points

Cracking meeting against Ryan Douglas .Loving the progress Ace Pijper is making , roll on the final2 points

Good to see dropping Joe Thomson has worked out well....A little chuckle to myself if I must be honest.2 points

Agree, and I'd pay to watch him over Lawson or Worrall any day of the week.2 points

Have to say I agree with your last sentence. I believe LR should consider resigning as Birmingham Team Manager but remain as co promoter now that would be in the best interests of Birmingham Speedway as a whole.2 points

Laughable comments and show the sheer stupidity of people involved in the running of Speedway!!! The problem with refusing to face the truth is that that will make these mistakes over and over2 points

all the reasons you said maybe correct, but didn't stop me from enjoying a few good races and understand there are still a few riders who put in effort whatever the circumstances.2 points

Why is me stating that Mulford scoring, putting pressure on him. He won heat 4 at Birmingham, beat Roynon on Wednesday. He needs to start scoring at his home track. That is not being critical.2 points
-
Not putting pressure on Mulford then eh? He’s a 2 point average rider and up against two former Bears and veterans for goodness sake and that’s just in heat 2! It’s down to ALL the Bears and the guest being on top form , from heat one, something which is not a regular occurrence at home but they are capable of it. Poole ride Redcar as well , if not better , than their own track so it’s going to be a very tough one for the Bears.2 points

From the Berwick website When the fixtures were planned, May 6th was just another date on the calendar. No-one could have appreciated how a greater proportion than expected of the population (and therefore a greater proportion of the potential speedway crowd) would decide to celebrate the Royal day with a knees-up, and give our attraction a miss. From Wikipedia The organisation of the coronation was the responsibility of the earl marshal, the Duke of Norfolk.[8] A committee of privy counsellors arranged the event.[9][7] On 11 October 2022, the date of the coronation was announced as 6 May 2023, a choice made to ensure sufficient time to mourn the death of Queen Elizabeth II before holding the ceremony.[10][7]2 points

Poole scored 48 and 50 on their last 2 visits to Redcar, so still are favourites to go through. If the Bears can win on the night that’ll be a good result.2 points

Best ever quiz answer was: "In his ancient Greek epic poems, Homer described Nectar as the drink of the gods. What did he say was the food of the gods?" Answer: Well I know Homer likes doughnuts. So I'll say doughnuts.2 points

I'll happily accept some apologies if you like Peterborough fans. Billy Bigbollox not so much the future now is he Chapman is the easy target, when it's clear the responsibility for this team is more '2nd Hand Motormouth' & Allitt.2 points

You are getting mixed up. It was Zane Keleher that Charles had an altercation with at Plymouth in 2021. Poole discarded Keleher, and went to Plymouth. He brought Charles off in heat 5. Charles was excluded. In the rerun he brought James Sarjeant off. Was rightfully excluded. In the return meeting at Redcar. Heat 3. After the race, on the warm down lap. He pulled Jake Allen's cut out off.1 point

No I would not, I run a successful business and I know to get the right person for the right job you have to pay the going rate, Rogers can stay there but as a odd job man, so could keep is promoter’s license, whilst Rogers is TM I will not attend Birmingham Speedway, and I know of at least 12 other supporters are of the same opinion, So really whilst he doesn’t get paid (how do you know this) he is in fact costing the club a lot of money.Having spoken to several Edinburgh supporters they said the Track on Wednesday was perfect it’s just that the Birmingham team are rubbish, a team presumably put together by Rogers1 point

The covers used to be eye-catching, but now they are quite childish and ott. Overall, the magazine's standards have dipped in recent years, and the paper quality very poor. Oh, for the days when you used to get a proper match report from someone who was live at the match, and when Peter Oakes used to have something in there worth reading. They only really push the boat out during Grand Prix weeks.1 point

Not the brightest suggestion at the moment with imminent sight of the AEPG plan submitted to council. We need some cool heads, club cohesion and targetted opposition, if need be, based on that submission and the local plan; not some here today, gone tomorrow stunt. Great idea to shout everybody out but who's waiting to come in to do what's necessary? Yes the club appears rudderless but I'm sure that others with more enthusiasm are paying close attention to our plight.1 point

I don't think you'll find he has... The word is that he hasn't , and only gave a fraction of what was agreed with Buster. Maybe he could give some clarification on that one... As well as all the other stuff he was going to deliver..1 point

This situation looking from the outside reminds me a lot of the Diamonds situation... See how that ended New owner comes in, promises the world, delivers nothing Very badly put together teams with no heatleaders Promises of changes every week but it never comes Crowd levels dropping like a stone but no action being taken to prevent it Teams so far below the limit you could almost fit another 3 riders in place Zero communication of any sort from the club other than the 'turn up or lose it' type of attitude Guest after guest after guest It'll not be long until the plug is pulled imo. I really do feel for the Peterborough fans here... The only positive yous have is Basso. Andersen and NKI were shocking last night, Ben Cook was alright but you need better than that... Yous needs to get that lad who was out practicing last night after the meeting (Cooper Rushden?) I genuinely think he'd have beaten Hans and Niels...1 point

Wolves Speedway owners are in talks over a potential new home after the team was given notice to leave Monmore Green. Under-threat Wolves has been told its tenancy agreement will not be extended beyond the end of this year, leaving the riders homeless after nearly a century of racing at its historic home, in Sutherland Avenue, Wolverhampton, which it shares with greyhound racing. The club is remaining tight-lipped over the unnamed location, but team promoter Chris Van Straaten told the Express & Star: "There is a site which we are investigating, but it is the very early stages of consideration and we're unable to say any more at the moment. "We have had a lot of interest and have received a lot of help from MP Pat McFadden, councillors and others. We are working towards a site and we're quite confident about and hopefully it will come to fruition within the next few months."1 point

The best of any realistic options For any faults he has (and you can't hide the fact there are some, and not insignificant either, in his past) Ben is a hugely likeable character with fans and a good team member Will take some pressure off down the order1 point
