Our 2nd night tonight in Poznan. Tomorrow we're on the train to Torun and spend 2 nights in Torun for the GP. Home Sunday. All travel and accommodation for less than 2 nights in a Cardiff hotel for our own GP. Something wrong there.

Touché. I think both call offs were right but your hypocrisy in not calling out Poole the way you did Oxford is now visible for everyone to see.

The bikes are less forgiving these days and you have such a small optimal useable range that outside that range the bike is uncompetitive and it’s reading things like that you think well why don’t we make the engines like we had before where it was competitive without a limited range, well the answer is because the sport is run by the riders for the riders via the tuners and it’s quite the little cartel they have going and turkeys don’t vote for Xmas

Poole speedway yet again

Been very heavy rain here today. Not a surprise at all.

just award the trophy to us, job done, enjoy the winter, see you in march

Fricke never seems the man for big meetings. He isn’t a number one I’d want leading my team personally. just not in the same league as the likes of Emil/Doyle etc. No doubt he will prove me wrong next Monday but I doubt it. He was abysmal on Monday .

If they were scoring their average they would not be shunted out.

Can't be easy to arrange a date that 'works' for everyone....it's more important that Alan's memory is being honoured! Well done to B'ham for putting this meeting on in the first place!

I think it's unlikely he rides again this season imo, the fact he's booked an assessment tells you it wasn't a mild concussion, I'm sure he's desperate to get back but just don't think it's worth the risk.

Didn't you cancel a meeting because of a leaky pipe? Leicester never done that 😂😂😂

Any truth in the rumour that both Poole and Oxford have called in track expert Starman to offer his priceless pearls of wisdom for both October 5 and October 9.

He's down the stadium

Where's Starman2006 when needed 😂

I thought they also said or a structured second half with races and not riders just doing laps would suffice

What a shambles calling off with a perfect forecast and hoping that October will be better.

I call him Hokey Cokey. "You put your left leg in, stick your right leg out, in, out, in, out, shake it all about..."

Oxford Facebook page on meltdown 😂

Hold your horses... there's still 35 days of the season left, there's no rush, sounds like you're worried 🚽

A Leicester fan I spoke with on Monday said it's been drastically improved since then, you're so living in the past down there on the south coast.

They’re not building teams as in getting signatures on paper bar the odd one or two riders that won’t affect team building regardless of points limit. There are frequent meetings leading up to the annual AGM where everything is discussed and things are loosely agreed prior to the AGM itself. But there are promoters that know (and there’s a few that lurk here I promise you), that nothing is set in stone until the conference. There can be a points limit agreed by the majority, only for a few to change their mind at the AGM and swing it the other way scuppering plans that certain promotions had in place. There isn’t a single promotion that can make concrete plans until the conference has been completed.

They would if the replacement is Will Cairns!

Flint will surely be at Birmingham. They have the right to retain him and I’m not sure why they wouldn’t.

How can he revert back to a 2pt average when he’s got an official gsa of 4?

Quite. Yes, I served my apprenticeship at the factory at the bottom of Sterte Avenue. Our carpark was at the waters edge back then, with the slipway outside the gate by the sea cadets.

And most are there because it’s their team not because it’s speedway, it’s tribalism and it’s the very foundation of any team sport but the concept is lost on British speedway

There isn’t really a thing called “the set up” they are all within a tweet or two from being somewhere near, it’s just a trendy thing to say these days, different riders have different set ups, bikes that ride well one day more often than not won’t work the next day on the same track with the same bike set up, when you hear a professional say they don’t have the right set up after their second ride it means they were crap but are too vain to say it, it’s bs like saying p1 or p2 when first or second, it’s just modern speak

It's only because we had a months worth of rain in 24 hours... there's never been a match cancelled at Leicester because of rubble poking through the track

Please don't spoil my Ace bashing with facts 😂

There are several candidates!!

i was referring to Ben riding 😞

With the mess of a track they have in Poole one drop of rain would cause it to be called off so it’s a fair enough decision

Things are spelt as they're said in Dorset........

Probably depends on Ben's assessment

Roads flooded on outskirts of town

So Poole V Oxford now 9th October at Wimborne Road. We get second leg after all and Ben should be back for both legs.

I'm not a track man, but if it does stay dry Friday and Sat, then there is no excuse for it not to be in a good condition by Sunday. I think they have done work on the drainage since the play off and Jubilee fiasco, so hopefully that helps. The weather was poor for the semi final V Ipswich and i though the track held up well. My concern is the weather forecast changing again. If not lets go to Kings Lynn, I've heard our guest NKI goes well there 😂

Interesting to see how he fares.Probably the most improved rider in the Championship this season has had a great season.

2024- 40 for top 6 plus 3 for RS = 43

If you ask for a pair of trousers you only get one.

13675 which is a full house for the 9th time this season(out of nine)

Whilst I agree I suppose, I won't be signing as I couldn't really care less who is in the GP's, more interested in who will be riding and committed in the UK.

Dan Thompson rides replacing the injured Drejer

I thought the same. It’s incredible that a successful businessman says daft things like that. And blaming bad luck and his riders not performing when he has sanctioned the team signings

Got to admit can’t stand her either, she also does polish league for eleven sport

Totally disagree Danny to be fair scores the points that you would expect. However it’s not all about that is it? The biggest issue is when the chips are down he either goes missing or makes a novice error with riding lines. The semi final at Leicester being a prime example, on a comfortable 5-1 & then falls. Also can’t team ride to save his life I’ve seen more team riding from Nicholls & Brennan in their witches appearances this season than King has managed in the last 5 years.

Have you Shazam'd it

That's absolute nonsense & not a rule.
