Enjoyed last night, despite the 'Stars' losing, and I'm sorry that Ipswich will now miss the play-off's, following Leicester's win at Wolverhampton. It's been great to see the likes of Robert Lambert, Emil Sayfutdinov, Tai Woffinden and Artem Laguta back on British tracks for the various lengths of time that they've been here. Love him or hate him, which the majority seem to on this forum, without knowing the real Keith Chapman, the atmosphere at the Adrian Flux Arena has improved, in my opinion, ten fold, since he was forced into having to take the lead role in our favourite sport again. The cheers and applause that he received after the meeting, when he announced that he would keep the club alive going into 2024, was great to hear, so thank you Buster, for allowing the keyboard warriors, the chance to slag you off again next spring. They are in the minority, compared to the amount of people that do support you. I agree with Bagpuss, Simon Lambert must be the first name on the team sheet for next season. He's a great captain, and a rider that never knows when he is beaten. Okay, I'll open my windows now, as I'm expecting the S**t to hit the fan, but I've expressed MY opinion, as of course you are. Have a good winter everybody.

I t will repeat what i said last year. How do you get the twenty thousand that turned up in cardiff on saturday into manchester that holds about 8000, Why do we want to every year want to move it to a venue miles out from any facilities? And as for people thinking cardiff is expensive do you really think london would be cheaper. Ive been 17 times and will be back next year, Cardiff is a great day out and if you dont agree dont go

And Bradley Wiggins … He won Tour de France when allegedly under the influence of drugs…. When I took drugs I couldn’t even find my bike let alone ride it

All we need now is for Barker to confirm he lent Richie some piss as Richie had just taken an anadin.. Only in Speedway

People should be careful what they wish for, you couldn't ask for a better place than Cardiff, over the 20yrs there's been more excellent meetings than bad ones. BV is a great track but sadly lacks everything else that attracts people to Cardiff. Leave Cardiff and speedway for Britain takes a step backwards in my opinion.

The information did not come to light until 3 minutes before we went on air. At that point there was no official statement, we were simply informed they had been removed on medical grounds. Once the SCB statement was released we made sure to read it to inform the fans. Anything prior to that is speculation and we are not looking to get into that. So yes, any other broadcast organisation would have done exactly that, went by the book not rumour.

Yes, they must be 5h1t faced to turn up and pay to watch this cr@p

Can you imagine any other broadcast organisation ignoring the story electing to talk about the weather instead? After all they have an expert in the matter in Ben Barker on comms

If Riss was to end his season early we could have Lewis Kerr to guest for the cup !!! riss was woeful tonight. Kept looking behind even when last. I think he was expecting the tractor to pass him.

That’s shocking from Berwick to not win that.

Is it a pink flying one?

After following the sport for nearly 40 years I've struggled to take team speedway seriously in GB for a while. Riders doubling up and down and guesting all over the place! It's quickly becoming a case of just having any rider in the meeting to get it on irrespective of club affiliations! Sad times.

A crucial match featuring the two best teams in the league and available on BSN, so Poole fans can watch some proper speedway (I reckon 2 minutes max ).

Nice gesture from the Lions management. They have released a statement tonight saying that, instead of giving out whistles to the fans if they qualify for the play offs, they will give each season ticket holder a free spliff as a thank you from the riders for supporting them through this difficult season.

If you can ignore the fact that there were only 3 Plymouth riders on view tonight that was a pretty good finish for them. I can't really ignore that fact... so meh Berwick could claim they were robbed with the Hans Andersen exclusion which should probably have been a 5-0 Berwick were poor for not taking Plymouth to the cleaners

Personally have a lot of time for Ritchie. Says it how he is and to the point and he’s bang on with a lot of what he says. Just the usual happy clappers and programme wavers who don’t like him. That speedway friends page on Facebook is full of weirdos no offence to the non weirdos who are on there but the majority need there heads checked.

Maybe this why Richie was too heavy to win the British final, hes be carrying a six pack in his kevelars.

Jye Etheridge riding himself into the 2024 Plymouth team hopefully.

Probably about time people stopped making excuses for Worrall, the guy is an absolute walloper and an embarrassment to his brother who conducts himself with the utmost professionalism. Richie has no respect for the paying fan. The only people who respect him are the ‘risks his life for our entertainment’ crowd. The remarks he made recently on social media in response to some light criticism were nothing short of appalling.

In my opinion every rider should be tested at every meeting.

Seems like easy pickings at the moment. It's been more like the Leicester "Lines" this season

I hope so. I’m absolutely raging. Test the lot of them at every meeting.

Well they have at least addressed it by reading the SCB statement, but the co-commentator has not made any comment on it.

How do we attract new investment, or keep the few competent people we have in the sport with nonsense like this. Unreal

Expell the Lions from the play offs

I wonder if BSN will address the elephant in the room?

I'm just a supporter like yourself trying to do the only thing that we can do. Those are all valid points and I don't know the answer. We just have to hope that someone really is interested in taking the club forward and AEPG come to the table, whether voluntarily or due to outside pressures. PCC and AEPG thought that this would go through on the nod so we can only try to put a spanner in the works, make it difficult and cross our fingers. Whether we'll win I don't know but doing nothing will hand victory to the executioner.

PETERBOROUGH have been given a boost over the fitness of Artem Laguta ahead of their crunch clash with Leicester on Thursday. Laguta missed his final ride in Monday's win over Sheffield due to sustaining an ankle injury after an awkward second-bend tangle with team-mate Chris Harris in Heat 10, although he made a superb move to win the re-run before the ankle swelled up.However, the good news is nothing is broken and he will have more treatment locally before taking his place against the Lions.

Message for Simon Stead: Reserves win Meetings - last night Panthers 19+3. Tigers 1. Oh dear!

Don't be daft, the promoter's never put that much thought into rules. They'll come up with an idea to fix a problem, blissfully unaware it creates 2 new problems

Never thought I'd say this but Simon Lambert needs to be on the team sheet next year whatever league we are in.

Just what we needed! Anyway the supporters bus will be there at all 3 away meetings supporting the lads! Should be a good weekend. Weather looks good too!

Spoken like a true Pirate

Has Richie worrall been taking slimming pills haha.

He can ride for us with a false beard and ‘tache and be billed as the experienced Pole Krzysztof Harriszek. In heats where he meets himself it would be explosive.

Wonder if a Witches rider will get asked to guest at Peterborough Thursday night

Isn't speedway brilliant.

They doing that one by one all by themselves.....

They are expelling themselves. A piece at a time

Has the end for team speedway come? Open meetings and individuals the only way forward? Seems to work for IOW

What a joke

What a shambles both teams no wonder the sports on its *rse

Yet you feel the need to comment having said you'd never seen him ride? If that's the case, why comment? That seems far more pointless than actually having a thread about him. And 7+2 on his Championship debut means he's out of his depth does it? Something tells me the green eyed monster might be at work.

No s*it from me Mimmo . I've been supporting Buster this season, and had poo all season from P/B fans on here. He has been dealt a low blow at both clubs, when he wasn't supposed to be there, and wasn't involved with Lynn, and pretty much the same at P/B. He could of shut both down, and walked. Look at P/B's team since CJ bailed. Many P/B fans saying Buster might as well close the doors now, and he don't care.. Lynn was in trouble after Alex left. It wasn't Busters team, and team has been hit hard by injury. What I will say is that he should be more transparent in the future. The fans would welcome that, and just might feel sorry for him this season if they knew. For me Lynn need to cut their cloth accordingly next season, and if that means running in the Champ (if there is 2 leagues)then so be it . I guess it depends on if we can find a new promoter for 24.

As a speedway fan in general before any club loyalties now - i think its great that Lynn will be back in 2024 - lets hope for a positive season for you as well!

I'll hold my hands up and admit I have been critical of Buster this year. However, I agree that the feel good factor is certainly back around the club and long may this continue into '24 and beyond.

Refreshing to see someone not being a good boy and toeing the party line and calling out the bullish!t that goes on. No doubt he’ll be getting a phone call in due course!

Seems to be getting better as he’s getting older! Always doubtful that R Lambert would commit to a full season but if Lynn could get both Lamberts signed up for next year that would be a huge start to team building.

I drive in early Saturday and then drive out Saturday evening. Took the lad and his school mate, we had packed lunches. No need to buy food, parked the car all day for £14, drank free monster in the fanzone ( not the best drink I have to say). So it can be done on a budget.
