Really? 2 wins from his 2 replacement rides. And meeting over before heat 15..

Having been looking forward to a Dad and his 2 lads weekend at the Grand Prix Round 2 in Warsaw we had brilliant day watching some excellent racing and the whole day went smoothly and as planned. Our flight home Sunday morning was an early one , we met and had photographs taken with Chris and Jack Holder , we met Jason Doyle and his pit crew all at the Airport which was a good start to our trip home. We had unallocated seats on the plane back to the UK and expected to be separated which was fine ….. the boys boarded as I followed on after only to go and find my youngest lad sitting next to the current leader , the one and only Jason Doyle with Simon Lambert sitting in front. As you can imagine my lad had the biggest cheesiest grin ever to be seen ! Both Jason and Simon chatted pretty much most of the flight home sharing stories and offering some banter. Jason also took a keen interest in my lads Kart racing and was more than willing to look at some photos and ask about the sport which made my lads days. To think Jason had been to work only a few hours before and come away winning the Grand Prix and still take time to talk and show interest in my lad is a day we will never forget. We now look forward to our next trip to watch Round 8 in Wroclaw only this time we’ll be joined by her indoors so I’m guessing they’ll be a bit of shopping and sight seeing involved !

Brilliant from Plymouth - well done - best team to visit so far. Thomson and Sedgy winning the IRR rides shows Picko’s withdrawal made zero difference to the outcome. Reserve points - paid 19 vs 3 - says it all.

What motivates people to always complain about call-offs? They all seem to be experts on track preparation (maybe they saw a video on youtube?). This time Chris Louis is wrong because he called off too early, last time he called off too late. Social media has a lot to answer for. It gives a platform for people sitting on their backsides to whinge about what is done by people that actually do things!

That's terribly unlucky timing for the young chap, what with it being Norway Day.

Waiting to hear what you think now!

Would hate to see Poland go down the average route, maybe only 2 GP riders per team

We are getting entertainment I've never enjoyed it more too be honest Yes we are weak at reserve But the biggest noise is when celina comes close or does pass someone It's not all about winning If you had zmarzlik and Lindgren as a pairing in your team it wouldn't be that entertaining as you would just expect them to win every heat

Really needs to go in room 101 tbh.

Mulford is racing in Germany , Tigers not allowed a guest so Mudgway has agreed to step in for one match might want to get your facts together before spouting crap

He has a spare tub for that night.

But they covered Pickering's last two rides with two wins, so that can't really be blamed.

Wood is dire.They must have thought” it’s only Plymouth”

Pmsl. Beat at home by a team with junior at no.1

Parnicki... Where has he come from? No 3? Fair play to the lad..

Tac Sub time for MONARCHS.

It wasn’t called off incorrectly, and it wasn’t called off the day before the meeting. The issue people have had as you full well know is that Lynn called it off the day before the meeting when the forecast wasn’t all that bad. The forecast then looked worse on the morning of the meeting, if it had been called then, then nobody would have batted an eyelid.

Those lineups sum up why the NDL has been reduced to a mockery. Nothing personal against Hutt but he simply lacks the ability to be either competitive or safe in a fixture of this level. The fact that Mudgeway has been quietly slid into the side in place of Mulford shows either cost cutting or more likely that Jake sees the NDL as nothing more than a nuisance. I feel for those who will end up paying good money for a very one sided match.

Probably not as much as he likes to make out. He was quoted as saying he wanted Lee in the team - that hasn't aged well. Would think they all sit down - Michael Max and Alan Dick - and rough out a team which needs Peter Facennas blessing then the promoters negotiate terms.

From the declared team the only one riding under their average is the one everyone expected to struggle at the start. Winning at home is what really matters in the first year, this side was predicted to take some hidings on the road and not many will come from Poole without it looking like a battering, Cook has been good for double figures all season and if he'd have hit the norm it wouldn't have looked so bad. Don't think there is a need to panic for Workington.

But considering mcgurk is a 2.00 rider he’s doing his job

Good to see riders passing on their knowledge to the younger guys. We seen Max Perry at Northside a few times last season and he never failed to impress, smashing little rider growing up fast, sure he will soon be scoring more points.

How come you have not included there most consistant and as far as i can see, rapidly improving Tom Brennan. Who also deserves a wild card for the SEC

A contentious decision but there aren’t many matches where there isn’t something that sparks debate. The proverbial ‘first bend bunching’ when a rider is knocked off. Different referees interpretation of when a rider is ready at the tapes to name but two. Bottom line is the match should have finished at heat 15, a draw. Super heat is plain silly. Mr Brown not doing himself any favours labouring the point.

You have one aggregate point in the bag, won away from home at Plymouth so that aggregate point is pretty much secured, Celina will never drop below a 4 average so I think stick with what you've got wait until just before the 75% league completion and then bring in a four pointer if needed.

You were saying

What’s up with Smektala these days absolute rubbish.

Perhaps, only in Glasgow. As everyone in speedway knows, the best view of a close finish is from the pits.

Bsn have said that vpn’s must be deactivated in order to view their streams. Deffo the problem

If that's the ruling, Glasgow should look to sign an U24 league rider on a 4.00 average & when it's rejected, get the lawyers to point out Workington signed a 4.00 rider under the same circumstances!

Harris had a deal with Lynn all sorted for this season, I’m sure if he left Oxford he would be at Lynn within a few days

I imagine bluster has been told his fate regarding a fine or sanctions and has threatened to pull the plug on the stars so the SCB are trying to prevent that happening before disclosing the punishment.

Well done to Tom Brennan and Richard Lawson

way off what there numbers stack up to all the other pairs in the league.

Would this thread have been 6 pages long instead of 3 if Buster had called off incorrectly....

Might be because they are winning.

Poole has always been incredibly difficult for away riders to get dialled into / set up for for some reason. Consequently vert talented riders can turn up there and look like novices, even those who have ridden there before. You can imagine how hard it was for the four debutantes the other night, add in a mechanical nightmare for Cook and 60+ for Poole was no surprise. Home wins will always attract thr crowds, Lynn were dominant at home for eight seasons in the second tier and as a result the racing was usually pretty poor, but more often than not the place was packed.

It was against Sheffield. That night killed Keith Chapman’s enthusiasm for getting meetings on. I heard what he said to crowd and his comments subsequently to small groups of fans as they left. SCB launches inquiries at the drop of a hat but dodges tackling and finding solutions to the real issue of how to ensure racing when it is wet.

Scunthorpe to win, but Berwick should go through on aggregate. But it's not a certainty, Scunny are very good at home.

With the reduction in the total number of teams in the British Speedway if anyone could run teams in both leagues then it is surely Poole with their fan base. With the Wimborne Road Stadium only staging speedway is there not a case that running two teams may help ensure the future through having more regular meetings. Just a thought ?

think they call him Max

No, no, no!

You would like to think so,but MTP and Allen can be world beaters at times round Scunny depends what versions turn up.Plus Kerr 1st match back needs to hit the ground running.

Those quotes are from the bloke who is trying to get Jason garrity back into british speedway, you can draw your own conclusions.

The team is doing just fine, Up until the Poole meeting we'd won 60% of all official heats ridden (7 meetings), having 2 Number 1 riders helps. Sam seems to be able to get in front from time to and then ride the wrong line, just learning Edinburgh's reserves are similiar to ours so lets see how they get on against them on Saturday Speedway isn't really a cutthroat sport anyways

Tai is also known as being a proven multi world champion. Controversy is part of his make up as well it seems. Tai is a proven world champion multi times over, Emil is not. Tai is a loose cannon and controversial character at times but has earned that right. Emil can be as interview perfect as he wants, he is very popular. Being a good interviewer doesn’t earn him the kudos that Tai already has.

Don’t worry midget , we are doing fine , enjoy the racing ,support the team we have

Kevin Brice, 4 pointer in the lower league but when he came to KL had a great season, 5-1s with Henka were brilliant to see

The late Lee Richardson stands out for me, from memory he found points very difficult to come by when he first started out, then seemed to overcome that and establish himself only to be hindered by health issues. As we all know then went on to become world class, especially riding for GB in the world cup
