  3. That looks a long tail , but I suppose every team will have that with the 38 points limit . I have to say , the watered down league doesn't inspire excitement . Can't see me spending fortunes next season going to away meetings . But at least we'll still have Bomber to enjoy watching at Ashfield .

  4. Don’t you think his dad has tried this ? It’s not like a Vauxhall Astra car you know ! It’s a very high spec Mercedes AB race van with a high security locking system to stop people breaking in. Maybe give him a call if you think it’s easy ? They are speaking directly to Mercedes and locksmith’s to solve the issue. They are having the whole electronic key system replaced today at a considerable expense so hopefully they will be able to race at the weekend. The only other option is to cut the doors off. I don’t know why people like yourself like having little digs at a 16 year old lad ? When you obviously don’t know what extremes they are going to, to get it fixed I just wish people like you would speak to his dad (very nice guy) instead of putting crap on here you know nothing about.

  10. Spot on Cheese .. The thing that makes me laugh or cry .. Who has ever heard of someone putting you out of business and making your asset virtually worthless but then setting up a company the next day with the same people . its just insane . Swindon Fans don't want Osboune or Russell running the club or the ones looking or not looking in there case for a new site . Russell needs the Licence taken off him with immediate effect .

  15. Well thats no good at all. Expecting fans to pay and turn up to see a bang average foreigner not try hard cos he isnt fit. Another reason fans stay away. The day that clubs and promotions rule the roost rather than riders, especially mediocre foreign riders, is the day the sport may start heading upwards rather than down the sewer.

  16. Heard off a VERY reliable source here in Aussie this week that Lawson is off to Edinburgh and B. Cook is off to Glasgow as second heatleader. May be a rumour but doubtful going by the person who told me.

  21. Tbh, I don't think that's relevant. Fans need to decide if they think the price is value for money. If they don't think it is & stop attending, it won't matter if the promotion knows more than the fans i.e how much it costs to put meetings on. I'll use Justin Sedgmen as an example, I've seen interviews, where he explains how expensive Speedway is, with tuning, travel expenses etc as a reason for riders deserving more money. But that's not how a business works - a promotion can only pay out, what comes in (unless they are willing to lose money). If clubs only get 500 attending matches, the riders wages should be based on this income (plus sponsorship), riders can't just demand more money to pay for the very best equipment!

  29. At least you will see some decent action at Ashfield.This watering down does nothing for my enthusiasm for the sport.BSN will probably be where I see most of my speedway.Too expensive to travel these days.

  30. aye I was under the impression from a rider that the CL will be reduced by 2pts and the PL increased by 2pts I am sure Ipswich would prefer the extra point lol

  33. I do love it when the "I know more than you do " brigade show up. My assumption would be with the Riders that are leaving announced, that Bomber, Complin and Ace are most probably staying. The trick will be to get a strong 5 in probably around the 8 mark so it doesn't take a genius to work out that it's coming from the batch of ........ King,Worral,Kerr,cook,Lawson,Nichols,howarth or Wright. I would also assume by taking one of those at 5 to get a heat leader at 3 would be between 5.5 and 6.5, leaving two riders in the 4's - 5's to fill the second strings. Watching what other teams are doing helps you narrow everything down.

  34. Pedersen for me just had a bit more of a ruthless streak compared to Crump. Also the man to stop Rickardsson winning 3 on the trot. Crump tho I think got 10 top 3 medals in a row. But if both in their primes, Pedersen would of beaten Crump for me. Either way both superb riders. Now back to Sheffield 2024

  41. You really are a keyboard numpty ! his equipment is locked in the back of his van has dead locks on it ! What do you want him to do cut the doors off his van ! Why would he want to miss it when he had a bloody good chance of winning it ?

  45. You would have thought it wasn't too difficult to suss out wouldn't you? Whilst the licence remains with that git Russell, we aren't going to move forward. First job is to get him away from any association with Swindon Speedway and kill off the fake Swindon Motorsports sham.
