I'll browse what i want, without being rude to other forum members. If you think you're being slagged off i'd suggest that you need to grow a pair.

Haha poor old Belle Vue, always treated differently!!

For some reason he's the Presenter this evening, after Kileen locked up and fell causing Craig Cook to also come off there was a murmur in the crowd when Killeen was excluded... Blair comes on the mic asking the crowd if they think the ref has got the decision right, to roars, then asks if they think the ref should view a replay, again to roars, the ref then views a replay, decision unchanged. It's not the presenters job to incite the crowd, as the rules state.... I consider that the riders job, but they're too busy disappearing back to the pits as soon as every race is over.

I think it’s used to wedge the pit gate shut during races.

You come across like the secret lovechild of Lagutaracingfan and Gustix or any pairing of their numerous pseudonyms

We’ve seen riders have career impacting injuries, wrong place, wrong time or dangerous opponent. It can’t be coincidence certain riders often end up on the sidelines virtually every season.

All the rules are their to download free on the SCB website

Robert would be a great addition to Lynn on 7.61 or 7.81. Not so good for the Aces as we have the most work to do with having the highest total average and he would probably be reassessed for us 8.50-9.00. Be good to see him return to the UK.

He’s close to being ours as well 🤣

Could they just not rearrange the Cup Final? Maybe do a double header with the Jubilee Cup...?😜

Well don’t be critical of what I do. Just keep off the thread.others post on here about what it was set up for you just want to slag the post off.not a nice thing to do to attack a newbie who is trying to enjoy the forum.

That was very unfortunate and you know that.He lifted slightly and caught the back of Klindt and unfortunately he ended up over the fence.

Ben Cook will be staying at B/vue for sure

Was definitely yet another good meeting. Heat 15 was excellent. Niels has to be in with a shout of rider of the season. I doubted his inclusion at the start of the season but he's been worth his weight in gold. Anders deserved another ride as well I thought. A top 5 next season of lawson, Basso, kvech, klindt and iversen would be a match for most teams. If Robert was available, not sure which one I'd swap out. Add on Anders on his 25% reduction, plus an RS, we'd be sorted..

It’s a fair enough thread open for discussion but as per usual ends up personal. Usually due to others forced preference. I remember the Ben & Ronnie feud well, in person. It did get too personal which escalated the altercation. I attended all of these meetings. Of course I was on Ronnie’s side as a biased Peterborough supporter, fully understand the opposition view. So here goes my opinion to the thread question, which will open up the floodgates again. Apart from the Boyce punch that seemed to calm Tomasz down I have to say NP is the most dangerous rider I’ve seen. Some of the moves he made were deliberately dangerous.

He failed his concussion medical. Until he passes that he can’t ride.

6 man Teams (maximum CL Average Limit in place to stop those who are too good for NDL being declared in 1-6) 1&4 Heat Leaders 2&3 2nd Strings 5&6 Reserves 15 Heats - 5 Programmed Rides Each No R/R (when a lower average rider replaces missing rider the order gets adjusted accordingly) Unattached 3point Guests Only from Published Pool of Riders not in any 1-6 (1-6 to be adjusted so Guest goes in at number 5 or 6) Injuries during meeting to be covered alternatively ride by ride by reserves It's a DEVELOPMENT LEAGUE not WIN at all cost League!

Just for anyone interested in polish riders contracts, Leon Madsen new 2025 contract on polish media: Madsen has signed next year from Częstochowa to zielona góra: Signature of contract - £300,000 One point - £2,750 From one new sponsor - £10,000 X3 year deal. He still has all of his old sponsors also.

Danny King should score 7 a meeting that’s what his position in the team is Doyle and Emil 13… Ellis and King 7 … Dan T and Rew 5 and Jenkins 3….. that’s 53 points a meeting I’m an Ipswich fan and yes sometimes it’s frustrating seeing Danny struggle but since back from injury he has scored 7 twice … 8… 9 twice and 10 and 12……. Good scores I would say at home or do some of our fans expect him to match Doyle and Emil Our team is built top heavy … but built superbly well that we have the next 2 riders in Ellis and King who regularly get 7 or more to support the top 2 Since losing Emil it seems King is a scapegoat for us losing … he isn’t going to get 10-12 most weeks he isn’t that level

Obviously rode against a stronger side last night🫣😉

Well I for one thought Greg Blair’s performance tonight was a breath of fresh air a 100% improvement on the usual incumbent who is a total bore who likes the word “Obviously” and usually fails to announce the line up until they are at the first bend.

Ben Cook certainly improved at Saddlebow Rd over night.

Tonight was pretty much a carbon copy, it was entertaining but I think Sheffield missed a trick as Leicester can still take top spot. The Crowd again looked dreadful.

Team average will be dropping apparently so some managers will have to fully rebuild the squads. We’ve tried improving the line ups over here and it’s failed miserably so lowering the points limit seems to be the way forward

I think Belle Vue might want him back. Not sure that King went missing - it's more a case of counting the times he comes good ...

BSN have announced that they are covering the KOC-Up Final 1st Leg free to air on Monday night, AFTER the Discovery+/Eurosport meeting has finished 🙂

Nice post you have 2 minutes. I see you like holidays maybe you could have there is no internet. You are a total moron .And why dont you support a side. Maybe because you know nothing about speedway?

Yes, which was the match I was expecting it to be as the British Speedway twitter account had published the revised screenings nearly 2 months earlier. It wasn't me that had a problem with it. 😉

I hope u are joking!Etheridge surely not

Sunday’s SF 1st leg Bydgoszcz v Ostrow Bydgoszcz 9 Huckenbeck 10 Lyager 11 Szczepaniak 12 Sorensen 13 Buczkowski 14 Buszkiewicz 15 Karczewski 16 Ostrow 1 C Holder 2 Musielak 3 Jasinski 4 Jakobsen 5 Chugunov 6 S Szostak 7 Dymowski 8

Very surprised the KL promotion didn’t do a package offer for yesterday and today - especially knowing tonight’s is streamed on BSN. Was there last night and looked the poorest crowd I’ve seen all season, can imagine there will be even fewer tonight… Some gesture of both meetings for £35-£40 might have tempted a few more…?

Saw him in action at Coatbridge for Leicester

Michelsen has said that he has had a week of intense treatment and is hopeful of being right for Saturday.

As I've said PR needs to be better, but the home team controls the media for their meetings and can dictate what is or isn't reported. I made the decision to go to Birmingham away the other week before Bewley got injured, him missing didn't change my mind, surely if you are going to support your team, a rider missing shouldn't alter that.

Obviously you don’t watch Poland ??- ie illegally

We were in the stand behind the tapes,and much as I would have loved to see Richard get a paid max, he got beat fair and square ,and I'm probably one of the stars more partisan supporters

Never once cast doubt on Brady's injuries. Not interested in what happened in a different century, I'm interested in the application of the rules in 2024. I'm questioning why Kurtz, Tungate & Lampart have not been suspended

You did however, between 8:45 on Monday and today make 7 (and counting) post throwing doubt on his injuries or questioning why he’s not been banned.

Exactly, out of control not knowing the outcome of the move. That equates to very dangerous. That’s not how it should be done.

Find a post of mine where I have mentioned any other Belle Vue rider past or present apart from Kurtz.

One post and received more badges than when I was a Cub Scout 😆

That's not a very nice way to talk about a long standing and valued member of the forum.

Or the fact Richie and Chris realise the season is over and said to him it’s not worth pushing yourself if you aren’t ready and just focus on play offs and if you’re good enough Thursday then race.

I agree, he's only been registered on the forum 5 minutes yet he's posting like he's been on here for years. Probably yet another with more than one nom de plume.🙂

You're the only one creating ridiculous topics all over this Forum.

Nail on the head, all my friends hate Sheffield because they say it’s boring but I quite enjoy the racing there and seeing the sheer speed they generate. Even when it’s a strung out race. Same at belle Vue. we all wish for 15 heats of incredible speedway but You will never get that. If you get 5 good races out of 15 you’ve done well these days.

The way I saw it by the tapes was Jake committed a starting offence when his bike with a faulty clutch pulled him into the tapes when reving, whilst the green light was on. His bike only pulled forward when at max(ish) revs immediately before the tapes were due to rise. This was a starting offence for which he was disqualified. Starting offences are a singular event and nothing from that is carried forward throughout the meeting. Later in the meeting he received a warning for moving at the start resulting in an unsatisfactory start. Nowadays the ref can let the race continue even if he thinks the start was unsatisfactory. The decision on whether to restart a race is if the ref feels such movement impedes other riders. This came in when fans were disgruntled about repeated attempts to start a race. Warnings carry through a meeting and should Jake had moved again it would then be treated as a full on starting offence complete with disqualification.

I've just been awarded something or other, I never win anything so that's great!

Because Belle Vue and Lemon are responsible for information coming out about the Aces and meetings, the match report mentions Kurtz getting 8+1 despite struggling with injury. They could have added because he struggled despite given it a go whilst injured he has withdrawn from the second leg tonight at Sheffield and BV will be operating rider replacement. As I said it’s not difficult, I might have missed it but I haven’t read anything on the BV website recently about Kurtz being taken to hospital with suspected broken ribs after crashing in Poland, I am sure I will reminded if I have missed it, it’s certainly not mentioned in the BV match preview with Lemon at pains to stress the importance of the double header. This sort of news is relevant to supporters, it doesn’t have to go into any great detail but it’s interesting that most of the news surrounding riders and teams is found on this forum and not backed up by the official websites.

Yes definitely but that is one aspect f this sport that needs to seriously change as it continually annoys the core supporters, and having other websites providing information and results etc doesn’t absolve the clubs from doing it themselves. If the sport wants to improve its image it seriously needs to improve its information and integrity. Belle Vue would have known Kurtz wasn’t riding at Sheffield at the latest after they rode the first leg midday and probably much earlier, it’s deceiving the supporters and it’s about time this practice was ended. I did the PR and website news for a few years and posting results, basic news and scores takes minutes, finding out Kurtz wasn’t riding when they arrived at Sheffield is an absolute disgrace for supporters who have taken the time to travel and support their team.
