That’s the reason for the call off then. Absolute cheats. AGAIN.

Hardly anyone outside the few thousand who follow the sport would even notice if he came back into Speedway... It isn't like any return would drive tens of thousands away... As that has already been done by others down the years... And if anyone wants to make a stand by not going should any convicted criminal be riding then let them.... Plenty more will still turn up regardless of his presence.... And, if we are now only allowing ex cons to do certain jobs, why should others then be made to work with them? Other "labourer's" in your scenario may not want him there with them for example... Therefore, what jobs does society say ex cons can do without someone having a protest? The bottom line is hardly anyone in this country has heard of Speedway, let alone Jason Garrity...

He did wrong & was punished in a court of law. His sentence was to serve 7 years in prison, due to good behavior he was released early only serving half his time. He now wants to return to normal life & that includes racing speedway. I'm not Judge or Jury but I am willing to give him time & space to prove he can be a valid member of the speedway community

I'd suggest not after this was posted earlier

I wish Vadim Tarasenko all the best. Hopefully Vadim quitting will burn a big hole in Buster's pocket once attendances drop after a few more batterings.

At a guess his machinery’s gone to pot and he’s probably not got connections or money to sort it out. Also explains why KL called Sheffield meeting off

Such a shame to see Buster and King's Lynn struggling. Has he sold Panthers yet btw?

The sport which has the most offers and offers them continuing employment is football. Yet every week people pay to watch rapists, drug cheats, wife beaters who steal a living through the sport.

Should be banned for a specified amount of meetings not a specified amount of time.

The 4-way temporary traffic lights causing the problems near the stadium were removed today.

I still don't understand the call-off. The weather was lovely, you can't just ignore one forecast & pick the one that suits you best. They had Lawson & Brennan lined up as guests, r/r for Tarasenko allows every rider an extra ride, so there was no reason to call it off due to the teams strength. If there was no facility for Tarasenko or Zmarzlik was his replacement I could understand the ruse, but still condemn it. But if King's Lynn are planning to call off every match when they may lose, they'll hardly get any speedway raced!

Tbf at least you know where you stand with Simon! 110% effort every race.

Not a problem- advantage is all with the punters who can if they want to watch qualifying, see how quick each are, whereas i have to put up the spread a week before and it’s all about intuition and enticing the punters to have a bet on a particular rider. most punters back more but figures show it’s a better bet to back less- here endeth the lesson on spread betting !

Didn't want to ride for Panthers B team after all

So is the real reason for Mondays postponement

Because you can’t just call meetings off at the drop of a hat. Every man and his dog knew on Monday that no rain was forecast so why call the meeting off? They probably knew on Sunday or Monday Tarasenko wouldn’t be returning the kl promotion are a joke.

Well I can tell you that according to the KL website and facebook it's 1. 2. 3. 4. 5. 6. 7. Perhaps there is some uncertainty over NKI and Basso?

Shouldn't that read 'roast' as opposed to 'host'?

I don't see why speedway riders must be holier than thou, to be riders. I'm pretty sure many riders have a 'back catalogue' or skeletons in their cupboard. Many boxers have skeletons and back catalogues. I do understand speedway promoters getting worried about the affect on their gates. On the other hand, he might be a draw. 'Come and see the bad boy come good'!

Really? How does that work then?

Would that be Ryde or Parkhurst?

50-40 loss and no injuries would be a great result

Amateur hour in Dorset tonight.

In 1965, West Ham also won the KO Cup, and the London Cup

max James falls when Hagon fell off trying to avoid him.That’s a shocking decision by the ref what does he want him to do run him over. Standard of refereeing this year has been nothing short of a disgrace.

the track?

Bysarna speedway have awarded 6 million SEK,* from the Swedish Inheritance Fund. They money is dedicated to the construction of a new 500 cc track. https://sverigesradio.se/artikel/pengaregn-over-bysarna-har-knappt-sovit-nagonting-i-natt *about 440 000 GBP/ €516 000

Definitely A but I’m going for neither !

This happens every season at Lynn and did at Peterborough before our track was dug up. One common denominator

Sorry....couldn't resist!

He had probably the greatest deal ever, for him anyway, he got the parts but whether he paid for them could is another story.

It's for Tarasenko withholding his services.

Smith confirmed as tiger's #7.

I'll give you £1 for every hypothetical person that physically attends a speedway meeting.

Why? Klindt was probably lined up already to replace tofty but just sped up the process

Leicester will hit 60 imo. I cant imagine Milik, Lampart or Pawlicki enjoying the Leicester circuit.

Season over. Tarasenko has quit and is replaced by Klindt.

So why comment at all if you do not know anything, can of worms?

Spot on

I'm sure Jason is aware of the consequences of making a public return and whatever team he rides for will remind him of this,but at the same time have a responsibility to help him too . Jason has broad shoulders so name calling and verbal abuse won't have a impact on him. If people don't want to go and watch the meeting he's in then away meetings are hardly affected because it's once or twice a season and home team ( whoever that might be) meetings would only affect the individuals who choose not to go which I doubt would be that many in the great scheme of things. Speedway is far from a mass spectator sport so no difference to people not going anyway for reasons like watching on streaming or being on holiday etc. There's also the hypocritical people who give it the " I'm not going" attitude and still go!! I've known people like this over the years.

That piece made me smile, Havelock had difficulty managing his own life never mind anyone else's.

No, they won't be finished. Said at the Chargers match that they've been extended until at least the end of the month.

Exactly right. As I said yesterday, those trying to compare the two were comparing Apples with Oranges. One plane took off on time, one plane didn’t leave the ground. Genuinely can’t believe one or two idiots on here were calling for Doyle to get a ban! What did you want him to do? Sprout a couple of wings and fly over himself?

i heard from someone in the know that the 2025 season maybe scrapped as rain is forcast for some of the days

Leicester are riding on Thursday night, I live just over a mile away... should I set out now?

Perhaps speedway riders should watch the best bike racers in the world in moto gp being interviewed and learn from it

They would of loved a track as dry as this to work with on Monday morning. The rain has arrived 24 hours late, at 11am today.

I agree. Should be awarded 0-75 everytime there is a call off like this where the meeting could unquestionsbly gone ahead. Promoters doing this kills people's enthusiasm. Someone should have gone there yesterday to investigate it. We might have a situation where Jason Doyle misses a match through no fault of his own and gets a fine or a ban yet promoters can do this.

They’re not similar though are they. One’s plane departed on time but just didn’t get on it, the other got on his plane and was told to get off it as it wasn’t taking off. You’re comparing apples with oranges. Think one or two from Sheffield way are calling for a ban because they sniff an opportunity with Sheffield riding at Foxhall on Thursday..

it is what it is !! it has rained for 6 hours !! so conditions won't be ideal but tell me who else would get this meeting on NO ONE !!
