  4. If they don't want to run the meeting they should forfeit the points... season after season the rest of the sport has to bend over backwards to accommodate King's Lynn and their dodgy call offs.

  5. How is he not???? Can’t blame weather for this one. And he has no rain all day and nice warm windy weather tomorrow. We’ve had the same weather as Lynn. Let’s see if we get the meeting on

  7. Very true The new Coventry City football club owner is quoted as saying every championship club loses £10-£15 millions a year. Not really viable is it . lets accentuate the positives FFS. Speedway and stock cars will work at Brandon it was never empty, the average crowd in 2016 for stocks and speedway was just over 2000 as reported in the planning appeal. All the best for the Dons as well, this new venue sounds very suitable . Up the Bees and Dons

  8. Not at all. Drop Zagars gtee by 50 quid a meeting and that would pay for a cleaner to clean a few areas. Not rocket science.

  9. If they could get a long lease from the landlord then they would spend more on the track. They would like to widen the track onto the old dog track, but when your landlord won't give you more than 1 year at a time it would be financial suicide to do so.

  10. Only days ago King's Lynn & Klindt himself said he was riding at Leicester. One thing we should have all learnt over the last decade is to never believe anything King's Lynn Speedway reports.

  11. I make no secret of the fact that I know, or knew in some sad cases, the rugby officials at Derwent Park. And after the history season in 2018 Andrew began making noises about opening Comets at Northside. His first job became the removal of Derwent Park shale, off to the new track. And apparently (?) Andrew dug too deep into the shale and ruined the machinery blade he had hired - costing him approx. £50.000 (I'm only going by what I was told then). By the way to this day you can still see the deep gouges, into the concrete base, on both bends at DP. The work though carried on successfully -thank goodness. I don't know Andrew's line of work but the aforementioned drama must have tested his resolve and I say well done marra for sticking with it. Hopefully the bikes will also be shifting shale again soon at Northside.

  13. He hasn't he's been getting better and better over the last 3 seasons. He's was world class level last year, I'd say he's been at this level for the last 18 months.

  15. That's a completely different point. Saying they won't get their money back is completely different to saying they don't have the money in the first place. It's also completely different to saying it won't cover day to day running costs. Many, many sports operations are not profitable yet many, many investors are prepared to invest in them. Why you continue to peddle such negativity, especially in the face of proof to the contrary is a mystery

  16. Not good enough, signed for Plymouth first, you either ride here or you don’t, sick to death of crap like this, taking the pish out of British speedway, things have to change

  18. Your comments just show you know nothing of this particular matter. 1. There isn’t a ā€œCoventryā€ but a body of folk fighting the cause to keep the current site ā€œas isā€ 2. There is a separate group of folk who the first group are working with/alongside who have absolutely no problem with funding the development (not restoration) of a multi sports complex at Brandon. 3. A miracle is not required. Only the removal of Brandon Estates intransigence. Then the work can and will begin of the development

  19. No idea mate, maybe they’re not picking him because he’s being a bit of a twit šŸ¤·šŸ»ā€ā™‚ļø I think if we let him go and Aces snapped him up he’d be magically okay again then šŸ‘šŸ»

  20. Only Premiership line-up King's Lynn could've had without having to book a Championship rider to guest who doesn't have a Premiership team place. 1. Iversen 2. R/R 3. Kemp (G) 4. Lawson 5. Harris 6. Klindt 7. Scott (RS) I wouldn't bother running either and I'd gladly take all of the backlash for it if I was in Buster's position.

  21. Yeah. We know that. It’s also rained most of the day here. And tonight it will be wet. but that’s a day before. Us and you have good perfect race day weather tomorrow. Your not telling me they can’t sort the track out tomorrow

  25. That's the speedways own fault, the stadium was up for grabs a few years back they chose to go for the easier cheaper option and let Clarke Osborne take the stadium , do the required work then rent from him, no good whinging now,fact.

  28. Bit of rain today but mostly dry thereafter would have made perfect conditions. Obvious to everyone it's an injury rain off... would have potentially been bans for jan and Ben if they didn't ride... Best all round for us. No different to early ipswich call off a few weeks back

  35. Update via Danyon Hume Racing. Hey guys, Just wanted to update everyone on how Danyon is doing, unfortunately Danyon has fractured his back in two places and we are now awaiting further updates from the doctor as to whether or not Danyon needs surgery. We would both like to thank everyone, all Berwick management, the track staff, ambulance crew, our friends, family and all the fans at Berwick speedway, everyone rallied around and helped with everything. Obviously the news isn’t what we want but we are thinkings positive at the moment. Thanks again everyone. Jade x

  37. I'm sure he would be well happy with 2k tbh. He always has plenty of shale and water at hand though. What i meant was with 3k fans, surely Ford could spend a bit on the track, making it a better product for all the loyal fans that keep turning up.

  45. After this meeting he’ll have missed 3 out of Plymouths 11 matches, I agree it’s frustrating but not nearly as frustrating as Jonas Knudsen missing the first 5 Oxford league meetings, plus when Plymouth signed Klindt he had no Polish commitments. However I don’t see you raising an issue with the likes of the Knudsen one so maybe it’s just you having an inevitable dig at Plymouth.

  46. Seriously, it’s that attitude that brings this sport down. I’ve no skin in the game but as someone who quite happily puts money aside each week to attend my club. If I were a working fan I’d be a bit p’d off. Do I think the fans deserve a news letter outlining everything, no. A polite statement to say ā€œwe are doing our best and we appreciate your patienceā€ would go a long way. For me speedway is a get together for three generations of our family. We love our trackside evenings out but if that’s in doubt we would spend the money the clubs need elsewhere. In an age of social media and public image speedway needs to do better. The days of waiting for the star to come out are gone. What could really save the sport is public engagement not secrecy.

  47. And most would also work. Now we have Junior standard riders turning up with all the kit wanting this and that. Expecting to become professional speedway riders. It's a different world now, but a harsh bit of reality is needed. Could you imagine a junior rider back in the day demanding this and that? He would be showed the door as quick as you like. Its out of control now and the promoters are to blame for letting it get this way. One league and if the riders can't make it pay then they will have to get a job. If not and they think they are good enough, let them try their luck abroad.
