  4. Stop bigging up the jubilee Cup,completely pointless and no kudos in winning it,with two made up teams of available riders,no Glasgow in the final, if they were they would win it easily,complete waste of time not worth risking riders getting injured. Time to move on and stop grasping at straws you're making a fool of yourself again.

  14. Yes. Even if there had been a rider who could've come in mid season for Lee and done better - which there wasn't - it would've been a terrible move because he was so good at getting the crowd and the kids hyped up. Not enough riders work the crowd, but he's brilliant.

  15. I think Lee and bomber are good characters to have around the pits and for interaction with the fans too. Was reminiscent of the never to be forgotten Danny ayres in the Oxford and Poole meetings with Lee

  17. If Ipswich want to keep Emil and Doyle, you need to find a couple of 5.00 riders who can improve their average. Possible options 1. Patryk Wojdylo - Talented rider but he may struggle to adapt to Ipswich. Would be useful on away tracks. 2. Patrick Hansen - Very good on small and big tracks, he would be my first choice. 3. Dimitri Berge - Has a very low average from his time in Britain, has been very impressive in Poland. 4. Jonas Seifert-Salk - Very talented youngster, would adapt to Ipswich very quickly. 5. Mads Hansen - Another talented Danish rider, very useful on small tracks.

  19. I never quite got the objection and eventual banning of ghost teams. If you start with the objective of organizing a racing environment whereby young riders can get competitive track time on a regular basis and enough people are willing to pay to watch them, what's the problem?

  20. Imo the racing should be better with "diluting the league" as you put it, we all know the racing Is better when there's 4 like for like riders in a race be that 4 x GP stars or 4 x 125 lads. Younger riders are never going be able to compete with lining up against PL no1s in the Championship, but this season has proved the young Brits can compete against 2nd strings there and it's improving them. All I see and read is we want changes, now there's changes everyone's moaning about it, people accepted riders taking sweeties off kids in the NDL was wrong and they shouldn't be allowed to ride there, well the same's been happening in the CL and hopefully now that's being stopped/limited too and they'l do away with Doubling up altogether except for U24 Brits.

  21. The wording there that he needs 2 Leagues in the UK to make it pay is partly why British Speedways in the mess it's in, he see's it as a cash cow because Polands possibly not worked out for him. There should be no doubling up/down except for British Riders under 24

  22. It wasn’t a loophole it was a rule, It’s only a loophole if it was not allowed but you can find a loophole.within it. Do keep up.

  23. With the touted points limit being so low, it’s important to bring in young riders who have the capabilities to improve. The Tarasenko loophole Glasgow exploited has now been sealed so there can be no repeat. So only genuine 5 pointers. Guessing all teams will have very inexperienced reserves, though I think it’s important to have at least one reserve capable of winning heats. There’s going to be a lot of two races in the same heat.

  24. Your probably right lewy but every Poole fan on here thinks it’s a divine right he will be a Poole rider if he isn’t in Plymouth’s plans then whoever is the highest bidder will get him not just because Poole click there fingers.

  29. With the loss of 4 riders and assuming Bomber, Lee and Ace remain we need riders that can score well at Ashfield and who are also likely to improve. Winning our home matches has to be the priority. So to me Connor Bailey is a no brainer. Thereafter who knows.

  30. Gilkes definitely one I'd be thinking of. Had never seen the place prior to u21 final and he was excellent that day. Seems to get his fair share of injuries though

  31. Edwards is on a 2 year deal at Redcar I think. Would expect Jenkins to stay at Oxford especially if they are keeping Boughen and Killeen at reserve.

  32. Could see Kye Thompson being interested if they were after him.Blows abit hot and cold but could improve his average

  33. On a personal note I would have love to have seen PK do the last ever laps at Monmore, like Mauger did at Exeter PK has been great servant to the club and the British league for decades .

  34. Again….the BSPL did not destroy it, they simply stopped the use of ‘ghost ‘ names, the teams could still have ran under a different name associated with the track they ran out of. Im no fan of the BSPL but they did not destroy it, the will to run it ( and the BSPL had nothing to do with that either) simply ran out because of the names used.

  35. Simple enough Idea however when fans won't come out and watch free (some clubs do charge entry) British Youth Meetings just now they won't turn out for the above as suggested. Scunthorpe and Redcar also run Summer/Winter Championships for all levels (entrants even pay to ride) yet very few come and watch those either. The Kids who "make it" every year do so because of the commitment from parents, Clubs actually do very little in terms of bringing the own riders through nowadays and those who rely on "Go Fund My Hobby so I can get to the paid ranks because I'm entitled" will always struggle to make it.

  36. This already exists: the Midland Junior League. Unfortunately, the idiot BSPL mostly destroyed it as they couldn't be bothered to run it. As for curfews, Birmingham manage to run a 15 heat main match and a MJL match before 10 pm ... and have found enough riders to run two teams.

  37. I would go for Tobi over Woffinden. Tai is looking to top-up his pension fund and his focus will be on the GPs. Tobi will give it 110% and will put his body on the line.
