  1. Then pull out. The CL shouldn't be backed into a corner by one party, or a minority of parties.

  5. I know it really shouldn't be in this section but come on, give me some slack on this to get some publicity! Eastbourne Eagles are riding on Sunday at Iwade Sittingbourne against the Thurrock Hammers (Arena/Lakeside) The meeting starts at 12pm. Gates open at 10am, Raspberry lane, ME9 8SP Adults £13 Concessions (60+) £10 Children under 16 free with a paying adult. And what a line up managed by Eagles legend, Dave 'Floppy' Norris. Scott Nicholls Edward Kennett Nathan Ablitt Paul Starke Jody Scott Henning Loof. Should be good fun with that line up!

  8. You're forgetting, Arnie, that woke can mean anything the speaker or writer wants it to mean. Usually it just means anything you disagree with.

  10. because hes ridden for us before because he is excellent round lynn because leicester might need to let him go to get under the points limit and at the end of the day these kinds of threads are about predictions/ wishlists / speculation and essentially having a bit of fun i dont think anyone would be surprised if he remains a lion but you never know

  12. Don't see the fascination with Ellis. Another who goes missing when needed most. Him and King really needed to step up this year when the top two were injured but didn't. Ellis has been around a while now , has to be well over 10 years and is still not a heatleader and is injury prone. Would get rid.

  19. Phil Morris spoke to a Polish journalist about Emil and Artem. Here is the story: https://po-bandzie.com.pl/zuzel-morris-zabiera-glos-ws-laguty-i-sajfutdinowa-podsumowuje-tez-sezon-gp/

  20. Which is good news. But as the promotion has recently stated, the overall level this year, although better then in recent times have still not been at a level to meet the running costs. If there is to be a 2025 season at Perry Barr, the promoters (and everybody else) know that it will be the last season due to the unavailability of the stadium and in which case, is there a worthwhile reason for running a team with the prospect of losing more money and with no chance of recouping that loss in future years?

  22. Doyle and Mickelsen would of been top 6 had it not been for injury so no surprise with those two picks. Kvech + Huckenbeck are simply in for commercial reasons (Czech + German SGP) although I have nothing against either rider and they were certainly offering something to the SGP. Madsen without the personal problems and able to concentrate on speedway would be more competitive than the latter two. Could it be that if 3G Logistics his ex partner was involved with still a lead sponsor ??? With so much press and even some FIM representatives banging the drum for the return of Sayfutdinov and Laguta back in the SGP I thought it may be possible but not to be. Nothing against Kvech and Huckenbeck but a little underwhelming.

  24. Many of us watch Polish Speedway similar to the way we watch UK Speedway... ie. More "sports entertainment" than a bone fide sporting contest.. However. In Poland, it is very much "winning matters" as financially there are big rewards, and tonights result will be lead news in the national written and TV news coverage this evening and tomorrow... We might want to be "entertained" but Lublin and Wroclaw fans only want to see their team win.. And if they get entertained too, then that is a bonus..

  25. Yes - basically capitalism in operation, about the least woke thing you could imagine

  26. It's not. They're in because there are GPs in Germany and Czechia. That's neither woke nor anything to do with diversity. It's a questionable business decision, nothing more.

  31. Richard Lawson guested 3 times for Berwick scored about 43pts, so if that is the way it works must be nailed on for Berwick eh no. Freddy had had a very barren spell points wise until that guest appearance for Glasgow. I think depending on NDL format he will stay at Belle Vue Colts who ride normally on a Friday night, and he has already said he would like to be back at Berwick 2025 who persevered with him all of 2024.

  34. There’s an argument that you’ll see a stronger line up of riders in the Torun/Wroclaw vs Lublin league matches next year than the world championship.

  35. Zmarzlik’s victories are not tainted and he is a legit World Champion.He doesn’t select the opposition and statistics are just statistics they bear no resemblance to what happens on track.GP’s format and selection process is the biggest problem( done for Commercial Reasons).Has there ever been a perfect process for getting the best 16 riders into a World Final.It is what it is.

  37. Poole have to be favourites if Oxford use Gilkes and Scott. Cameron Heeps has only scored 3 in each of his visits to Poole this year Ashton Boughen is not fully fit Dan Gilkes doesn't like Wimborne Road Luke Killeen is unlikely to be fully fit after his crash yesterday Jody Scott struggles to score points at home, let alone away Masters and Nicholls can't do it all.

  43. Wasn't the last meeting at Norwich but one of my encounters was in 1960 as a little kid meeting Peter Craven, my hero, of course. That man spent what seemed to be an eternity with me, sitting down with me in the clubhouse (or whatever it was called), taking a photo of him with my Brownie Box camera ( still have it somewhere). Definitely a good memory of that place.
