I can remember when Lynn closed for one season in 1996, we had grand plans to go to either the EoES or the Foxhole most weeks.....ended up doing both just once plus the Overseas Final at Coventry. It's not the same as your own club and the reality is most P'boro fans will drift away if they don't run next year.9 points

We're going to be scratching around at Halloween again. Never learn. One of the many issues with play offs, rarely (never?) Held in optimum conditions for speedway or for spectating. Either wet/ drying track or your freezing your nuts off in the stand.6 points

It was effectively 5 points from 2 rides as you full well know. Yes he missed the gate in his first ride and packed up at the back with machinery issues, but then looked fast in his next two and was clearly faster than Bewely in his fourth ride when he steamed under him and Bewely dropped it for which Doyle got ridiculously excluded. Let’s not start the “he’s no loss anyway” stuff because it just makes you look daft. And as for the second highlighted bit, nobody is falling for that old codswallop!! Why do fans do this nonsense? Make out their team is really up against it, underdogs, more disadvantaged than the opposition with injury, when it’s blatantly not true and they’re clearly strong favourites? It’s bizarre5 points

Meetings are called off too easily in the earlier parts of the season with seemingly 'plenty of time' to fit them in. I like a meeting on an iffy track, always proves interesting, definitely upping the skill level required.4 points

Morning! Bonus points if you can name the riders Could that be Paco Castanga, third from the left?4 points

It’s not speedway though is it. I personally wouldn’t cross the road to watch any four wheeled motorsport even if it were free.3 points

Doyle has said he is having a few days off and then be back on a bike. So looks like he will ride on Thursday.3 points

Edinburgh were not worthy of being in play offs but turned out to be the best of a bad lot at bottom of table.3 points

Im biased being a Witches fan but what a signing this guy has turned out to be Gives 110% every meeting ....not just here for a payday and turning up as and when it suits him. His scoring has been sensational but i want to touch on the other side of our sport He is the last one out of the pits to the changing rooms.....signs EVERY autograph and has EVERY picture EVERY week........always has a smile on his face and chats to everyone I knew he was a class rider but to see how he interacts with all the fans all the time he has been a pure pleasure to see every week We need more riders that do this not just hastily disappear after a meeting Ive heard from various sources that at away matches he has time for all the opposing supporters to Thankful as an Ipswich fan we didnt sign Holder with the attitude he has!!2 points

As amusing as that is to watch riding around in celebration after the meeting is not an official session, you may as well throw them out for wearing shorts and a t-shirt between sessions2 points

Apologies, that's poor etiquette from me to post another one before the current one has been guessed. Yep mines Norwich.2 points

Looking at the standard of rider that could get aWildcard next season, surely there has too be case for giving Emil and Artum wildcards.Two of the Worlds best sitting watching does nothing for the series.2 points

You could be right, but I haven't spoken to any Panthers fan that is interested in going to Lynn. Think the combination of Buster appearing to give up on Panthers, & the quality of racing at Lynn declining will deter a lot of Panthers fans. Personally, I won't be giving Buster any money.2 points

I found it was never the same after Reading closed. I put it down to not caring who won, it takes all the passion out of it.2 points

Lewy has always had a soft spot for Godfrey lol.2 points

I’m a Scunny fan and by far he’s the most impressive rider at the Eddie Wright Raceway he’s a class act on and off the track2 points

The few on here are only a small fraction of the fans attending the Showground. If Lynn sign a few of the Panthers best riders, i can see a 2/300 out of the 1200/1400 or so making the trip over, if Lynn have a competitive team.2 points

Very ambitious by the Brummies, but I fear for their future if true. Hopefully they'll get some Wolves fans attending to make it work.2 points
-
Neither, will be saving my money for trips to the continent most likely. I think Buster is probably thinking a lot of Panthers fans will migrate down the A47 but I can’t see that happening.2 points
-
Sooner drive past and go to either Mildenhall or Ipswich, never will step foot into KL again while chapman still owns the club, may even try Leicester or Scunthorpe.2 points

Wouldn't give Buster another penny so would be Leicester but the racing can't compare to the showground.2 points

I reckon the vast majority just support a team and enjoy watching the riders and racing, without bothering or questioning all the shizzle ... unless or until their team is affected. This forum tends to attract fans who have a real interest, whereas, for example Speedway Friends on Facebook proves that there are plenty of people out there who are barely computer literate or even capable of conscious thought.2 points
-
For goodness sake, yes we're up against it, so what let's all try to send positive vibes not negative ones all the time. If the meeting goes ahead I'll be watching on TV, probably with everything crossed but until the 2nd legs finished I'll keep the faith as I hope all Witches supporters will.2 points

2 ex Peterborough riders does that also mean that Basso racing fan is transferring over to you guys?2 points

What about Sheffield? Losing their top 2, reminds me of 2017 losing Freddie and Jacob in the semi.2 points

Oxford and Glasgow can toss a coin for who goes up. Loser is the one who has to join the Premiership.2 points

very slim chance of it being one league imo, I think a team will come up and the premiership will be six teams. Like it was in 2021 or 2022 (whatever year it was)2 points

Can't see it if Glasgow go into the premiership Basso & Vad will ride there.2 points

1 Very Cheap 2 Even Cheaper 3 Dirt Cheap 4 Extremely Cheap 5 Bit Less Cheaper than 1 6 Free 7 Whats left when everyone else is signed elswhere so they pay to ride for the club2 points

Same here. If the Panthers do not run, I will be saving my money for trips to Poland to watch Artem Laguta in the Polish Ekstraliga.1 point

Definitely not Kings Lynn. Maybe take in some meetings at Leicester. If Mildenhall went up to the championship I would be interested in going there. I have been to a few NDL meetings there and it wasn't great.1 point

I know you listed a "realistc" side. But i'd go Wojdylo for Breum. Both came on a 5 . I wouldn't go near Breum myself.. One has averaged 1.88 and the other around 5.60 and beat JD twice. Klindt i would be worried about, he's not getting any younger, and is coming back from a nasty one. We need an out n out No.1 imho for Heats 13/15. What ever happens with the league situation, we must aim to win all our home meetings, and try to pick up a few Agg points, to have a chance of a play off place, and keep the fans happy.. Not so realistic one Way to early yet. R Lambert B. Basso R. Douglas / C. Wright / Bomber/ NKI V. Tarasenko R. Lawson P. Wojdylo 38.94 or 38.60 with CW, 38.92 Harris, 38.41 NKI A. Rowe if allowed1 point

Don’t understand the amount of people defending Zmarzlik. He knows the rules like every single rider in the field, even the reserves would know them! They’ve followed the rules and are being professional, and people still twine and complain! Sponsors will have it wrote in a contract agreement to display there logo in certain places etc. People seem to forget without these sponsors, we wouldn’t have the GP series or it wouldn’t have the field it has. Rules are rules, break them and pay the consequences no matter who you are. Would people be kicking off this much if it was Kim Nilsson or Patryk Dudek? I think not.1 point

Fricke’s profile picture when he’s at the tapes is interesting. You could Chinese burn his neck.1 point
