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

Have you forgotten the war of 1015-18 when Norway did invade Sweden?

Give me 40 with an 8 team league and 2H2A, rather than 38 with a 9 team league and 1H1A.

if Oxford turn up tonight they'll walk it

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!

Regular speedway is a must.

Good then they can have 2H@2A lol

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.

It's pure capitalism which is the very antithesis of woke.

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

I can only speak for me, but I'd pay for it.

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.

lewy 44 minutes ago the obsession is real

He said that last year, gonna comeback this year in the gp’s and see the new me. That went flat.

They're called voices in your head, not rumours.

Well it only lasted 3 minutes 😛

The Wimborne road track has never really been spot on has it..

If the forcast is right and we get a completely dry day tomorrow the track will be spot on.

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/

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?

Be very happy to see Tom B at Foxhall

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.

I can't abide the fellow but he deserves his place this year without a doubt !

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..

lewy 35 minutes ago Rent free in his head, what are you doing Wayne?

Are you at the train station with that case.

But meeting is tomorrow

He will have few “hairy moments “ in the Polish 2nd Division with the kamikaze youngsters to contend with next year.Interesting.

Don't worry Starman2006 got everything under control

The Poole track curator is back😂

jeez , that will be life changeing for him .dont think he will get over that .

Aye that's how it works 🙄

Of course it's woke, Picking riders based on Nationality rather than picking the best riders available. All about diveristy in having as many Nationalities compete as possible.

1 good meeting out of 3 shouldn't be a reason to sign someone.

I wonder if this announcement has changed building plans, not just for the brummies but also everyone else's. I imagine Brennan is getting a phone call from every club in the Premiership

Pretty sure he enjoyed being at King’s Lynn more than at Zielona Gora. I know he’s at Torun next year, so might be different. would be lovely if he could bring one of his teammates in Dudek or Lambert back with him

Oxford to just get it over the line.

Thanks

I can tell you that Alex wasn't sacked, if that's what you meant.

Two nil to BZ when they met I believe !

I think it's called 'the reverse Shovlar'

Love him or Hate him Madsen is definitely a Top 15 rider,injustice he didn’t get picked in front of a couple of these wild cards.

There is a GP in Prague. If they want this to sell and also secure the venue, they need to include a Czech. Czechs "We will host a GP next year and pay £XXX but only if we can have two Czechs in it, else bog off." That's something which I definitely think is part of it. It's never been about the best riders. Same in many individual sports where countries have places rather than the best entrants.

I don't get all this anti-Madsen stuff, he's finished 2nd, 5th, 7th, 2nd, 5th & 9th (with all his "problems" this year) in the world. He's shown far more over the years than any of the other Danes

But those clubs that don't run because it is a "loss making idea", are quite happy to hoover up the talent that does emerge from the efforts of other clubs!🤬 And when the promise does not materialise as hoped (e.g. Max Perry), they spit them out and grab another prospect that they have done nothing to support.

Always a subjective discussion, but... He did nail six world titles in the "golden era" when competition was truly at its fiercest... Fundin, Briggs, Moore, Collins, Olsen, Michanek, Jessup, Simmons, Louis, Crump, Jancarz, Plech, and so many many more truly World Class riders, raced at the top level against him... To win it six times in that era was trruly staggering...

good old scotty nichols sorted them out didnt he ? the premiership is still full of championship riders . untill that is sorted out , ther will never be a top league in my lifetime ..

there would be, or should be, an option for the stadium to have a smaller footprint and for a very limited number of properties, it's a big old site. Doesn't have to be houses, could be all weather sports pitches for example thus maintaining a leisure theme.

Brilliant news and total support for The Bees and for speedway in general! Good luck from a witches fan!
