  3. What utter rubbish. This is a forum to discuss speedway. The fact of whether a meeting is on or not is fair game. Also… I was right.

  4. I like football, I pay money to my club, Bristol City, to listen and watch the streams officially available to me helping put money into my team. I do exactly the same with the excellent service BSN provide for us, I pay my money firstly to watch and secondly to pay for the work they do for us and the sport. Shame on anybody who gets by this on the cheap when the sport needs help.

  5. It's a superb track, arguably the best in the UK, and produces fantastic racing. I love going there for meetings.

  6. To be honest it’s been mentioned several times, programme buyers hate it, why they don’t just save it and just have a race day update for when the team returns is beyond me, especially when we have the fact of the same 6 teams 2 or 3 times a season.

  7. Tai Woffinden had a front puncture in the ht11, that’s why he purposely touched the tapes. Quick thinking but unfortunately the track wasn’t conducive to overtaking last night, think Kyle Howarth made five passes (two in one race) that were after lap 1 bend 2 apart from that can’t really remember any others apart from that. By the way great to see Kyle back on it last night, he’s tried absolutely everything to get his season on track including arranging a practice session on Tuesday this week to try get a set up working at Owlerton, by the way if there’s a video of ht15 with his battle with Lawson including the hairy moment off bend 4 into the home straight I’d love to see that

  13. Surprised, not surprised, Lemo didn't go for Lidsey in 15. Surely you've got to put your big hitters in the crunch races.

  14. I live 15 minutes by car from the track and it's been dry all day! Look at the Met Office forecast for Possil Park and the little video which shows all the main bands of rain missing the track.

  15. Personally it’s more to do with who’s running the club than what league we are in to get the feel good factor back it’s lack of enthusiasm in running the club we are just going through the motions each season and it’s been that way for a few seasons the club has never been the same since Jonathan Chapman left he wasn’t everyones cup of tea but he had enthusiasm for running the club Buster has none unfortunately - new ideas is what’s needed more than a different league

  16. I think scaramanga was led on by the Antti-Vuolas brigade, who hoped he wouldn’t stay for long.

  17. All scored from reserve as that was the previous version of 'Rising Stars' but the riders stayed at reserve all year and faced 6 fellow reserves and just two second strings in their programmed rides.

  18. He's much better than what he's showing. At the minute the other boys are covering for him by still winning Home meetings which is key to finishing 4th, I'd give Magic 1 more month whilst Oxford still have a grip on 4th place and if no improvement happens then get rid. Only Leicester can nick 4th place off the Spires and they're in a complete mess with various underperformers every night.

  19. Agree about the program situation.Why don't they just save the program's until the said team comes to Lynn.If you need an insert because the team line up has changed then so be it.You would much rather have a Sheffield insert in a month old Sheffield program than an Ipswich insert in a month old Sheffield program.I don't know who makes the decision on these matters.

  21. First of all best wishes to Jason, I was amazed to see him get up from what was a terrible looking crash. Highlight of the evening was stand in team manager Buster thanking the weather for holding off so he could get the meeting on! If it continues to hold off they will soon be able to issue a programme that relates to the meeting that's actually on , three inserts out of three so far. Overall a good meeting run at a reasonable pace with a few excellent races

  22. Refreshing to see an injured rider turn up to support his team... a move a lot of other riders could learn from Picko is hugely impressive as a "team" man and often comes across as he cares a hell of a lot more than a lot of his various team mates

  24. There's been a backlash to his appearance at the Blunsdon site. To be honest when I spoke to two local councillors, the Green one said it's a shame about the Moto Cross, and the Red one didn't seem to care. Not enough peeps bothered about local speedway these days. Swindon becoming a dormitory town for commuters to the south-east now, recreational stuff disappearing, just more houses everywhere being built on sporting areas.

  27. 58 points from 6 riders! Not bad tonight. Can't understand how IRR was able to be used for Covatti? Clearly not fit to race yet as he inferred in interview - stretched his stitches and couldn't turn the bike easily. Maybe it's Plymouth merely getting the sympathy vote?!

  30. I think you are mis understanding my point. Of course pharmacists offer advice. For example if someone comes in for OTC cough medicine, we ask if they are on any other medication. Its not that we are being nosey, we are being responsible as cough and cold remedies tend to affect the potency of other medication, particularly heart, blood thinners and respiratory medications (but not exclusively). If someone discloses they are on such a medication we legally cannot sell them it as we know it could cause harm. If a Dr prescribes it then thats different (although to be honest we would often give them a quick phone call to check too - thats a pharmacists job). That is totally different from someone riding speedway asking about banned medications but personally I would be more concerned at someone buying medication from a supermarket that a pharmacist has flagged as a possible problem than basically saying 'oh well I'll just go to a supermarket'. I mean these check out girls know as much as people who have done 4/5 years study and exams followed by regular professional monitoring....

  40. I think Antti and Claus are pretty good as a pairing. Tate has ridden with Claus during a previous meeting, Claus almost wiped him out down the home straight. This has the makings of a difficult meeting, Antti is top class at home while Connor seems to be struggling for form at the moment. Sam and Celina will definitely need the bit between their teeth and make the Cheetahs fight for every point. Ashton Boughen flew round Northside many times last season and in Scotty and Sam Masters they have one of the strongest heat leader pairings in the league so we will need a solid team effort from the Comets.

  42. I don't think the levels of Monarchs' invincibility at sunny Armadale is in any way connected to the identity of the track curator. A decent home team will, more often than not, prevail whereas a 'lesser strength' home team is a lot more vulnerable.

  47. No, your totally right Tim , I had dealings with him a couple of years ago and he seemed quite approachable until he was announced as Tomlinsons rival...he's been zero proactive until his sucking up to Wimpey. I actually wonder what goes on in both he and JT's minds not to mention the dim witted councillors for the area, pitiful.
