Give racers a great racing track you will get great racing ;))

Nice of Gusts to actually be making an appearance for Oxford. BSPA need to start taking a bit of control when approving signings imo, Oxford this season have taken the utter P. Knudsen and Gusts have missed more meetings than they’ve ridden. Need to start blocking signings when you can clearly see they’re going to miss so many fixtures it’s taking the mick out of the paying public.

Ah yes, The News of the World? Where are they now......!?

Great performance from Redcar tonight as expected it wasn’t to be easy especially with the guests in place so well done to them. Big thanks to Redcar Bears supporters for the great away support always good to see. There was some superb racing today not all in our favour but still good Speedway on show which is obviously the main ingredient to a good meeting! Onto next weekend away at Scunny and Plymouth

Most comets fans support the team win lose or draw, if you see some good close racing and your team gets beat, you've enjoyed the speedway, then hope you win the next meeting. Roll on supporting the comets at Plymouth next Saturday, thankfully got family just outside Bristol, so a visit to family and speedway at Plymouth

It’s maybe a strange shape with the unorthodox finish line but it produces some great entertaining racing

Any one seen @neila on here tonight, that's what happens when you get cocky

Not a druggy, just doesn't like being tested. I believe he does like a bottle of Vodka though!

Excellent showing last night considering we were 14 points down at one point JJ and Kemp especially we brilliant. As for tonight I think it’ll be another close run things with two weakened teams, for Berwick it’ll come down to whether JJ takes to the track the same way he took to Ashfield last night as Glasgow could potentially be using Bomber and Howarth for 6 rides each which will prove difficult to overcome unless Drew Kemp has some able back up.

Thing is... Yes, they're all good lads... yes, they all do their best..... but as a team, the quality just ain't there, we should at least be competitive at home. I didn't go tonight.. despondent... I ain't paying £25 to watch 15 heats expecting us to lose ...add to that, waiting 30-45 mins for the next meeting (which I'd probs only endure about 5 heats).. It's hard work being a Scorpions fan at the minute.

No need to be nasty about Craig who despite his problems has given a lot to British speedway over the years

Well worth the trip up... The racing wasn't "great" throughout but that was due to the Bears consistently getting out of the starts regardless of grid number... And the track being too dusty and slick for the first half of the meeting at least . Never seen a watering done after just heat two before, but it definitely needed it... It looks like a track that needs a good soaking given the camber is big...... The 2nd half of the meeting was much better and heat 13 was a cracker... But why no lap of honour? Where I was stood, on the home straight with the Redcar fans, (a good number there too), it literally killed the atmosphere generated by the great race.. Atmosphere, driven by tribal opposition, is what they sport desperately needs... Paco (one of the guests), wheeled around after his win in heat 14 so I presume some riders know what is needed... The food van ran out of chips, (a disaster it appeared for some), and I must admit, trying to protect my burger from dust was a challenge... The place itself is fantastically well laid out, with the viewing platforms all round the track providing a great view.... And there must be god knows how many artics worth of aggregate used to make the pathways!! The track is great, with my only slight criticism being the wide outside runs on bend two and four seem to make riders lock up a tad rather than letting the bike run like the NSS does. Are the exits narrower than the very wide entrances to the turns? Or was it just a lack of grip meant the outside line wasnt working as much as would be liked? The kids race attracted plenty, are kids in for free? There were plenty there... The centre green announcer is definitely one of the better ones I have seen... You can also hear what is being said around the stadium as the tannoy seems to work...!! And the signs from the town outskirts telling you that Speedway exists and, even more importantly, where it actually is, and when it runs, look professional... £20 a ticket? Value for money for me, I hope the crowd levels meet what is needed, it looked like around 700 to 800 tonight which I presume is better than break even? If you haven't been, definitely give it a go, great set up, and very good track..

No doubt the Headline win be GB got the Bronze🤔😂😂

Good racing is great but there is something that hasn't been discussed.. ....how did Vinnie manage to get himself stuck in the toilets!! 👀🙈🤷‍♀️

Brilliant sportsmanship from Lebedevs 👏

Very poor …. from you I would say

That my Poole friends is how you ride Workington as the away team!

Heat 8 was top class tbf.

We all know why, and it wasn't because he had cheese on toast the night before...😉

Never been to a meeting before where a heat got delayed due to one of its riders being locked in the toilet and unable to get out....... I won't embarrass him by naming him... (His initials are VF)...

Do you own a travel agency?

I forgot to give special mention to Hodder and Perry too. Hodder; not only for his win, but for pushing Kemp all the way in heat 7. Perry was so unlucky in heat 2, but that’s speedway. Those two young boys, as a result of our team building strategy, have found themselves with a little bit more expectation on their shoulders, but have handled it face on and given it their all.

Didn't even know YouTube shorts is a concept. Why don't they allow landscape - they could call them YouTube trousers.

You’ve just proved my point with Gusts the authorities know this yet still sign off the signing. It’s taking the fans for a ride which is another of the problems in this country.

Are you a camera man for TNT sport 😉

A few riders that were asked refused to ride because of the track

I suspect thier play off dream could be over....

Just looked at the forecast and it looks decent for today... Going to risk it even with Cumbria s "changeable" weather... Still might be tempted to stay over given I had a great night there a good many years ago after going to watch the Comets v The IOW, with Danny Bird riding superbly all evening... When I asked the landlord of the pub we were in what time he closed, his answer was "when everyone has finished drinking"... Which was around 4am if memory serves.... Taking my lad today though so maybe just coming back might be safer!.... With some the riders on view it should hopefully be a cracker on that track...

Is there any truth that if brains were dynamite you wouldn't have enough to blow your hat off?

Slick and the material produced powdery. Some decent racing but below par for Ashfield IMHO.

He rode well tonight IMO.Kildemand was the let down for me.Couldn’t gate too save himself after his 1st race win.Berwick win might have been on the cards if he had. track looked slicker than normal for Ashfield,some decent racing as usual.

Is different the new word for crap.

Saturday night speedway 🤔

Would love to see woryna in the GPs, he is an all action racer, doesn’t always get the results but you can’t question his commitment for trying

Me too on TVP sport

typical idiot who judges a meeting by there own teams score some very good racing tonight yet workington were poor early on and redcar rode the poor track better you should maybe go and support poole if you cant handle getting beat by better team on the night

Surely trigger must replace Jack smith after his performance tonight

good crowd there.

If Starke follows Tobias home in heat 8 they will think they have got a 5-1!!

Is anybody watching both this and the SEC meeting? I'm tempted but it might fry my brain.

As long as he sticks to drinking, not snoring this, he’ll be good.

A full team performance been due one of these. Great win at a place that’s normally very tricky for us. Hopefully kick on from this and keep the momentum going to make the play offs. Good to see a healthy away crowd in attendance also.

That’s you in trouble now you’ll have some of the Berwick faithful coming for you now. 😂 You’re not allowed to to say things that are true.

Yes. Several instances over the years of riders being paid to drop points. The News of The World published a report years ago and riders were fined/banned. That's the problem with today's out of control guest system whether riders are trying to manipulate results or not the suspicion is there.

Do you really think riders are gonna ride below par when they earn nothing and pay fuel tyre and ware on bikes They only make money if they score well

We did get the bonus, that thing you were celebrating as though you had won the league

…….Is that speaking as a Kings Lynn supporter? As a Lions fan I’m quite happy for Kerr to be guesting for the Stars!

Blaming Kerr lol… Lawson 3 points from his first 3 rides cost Poole plus Cairns struggling Well done Redcar with Riss and Mulford replacements only getting 7 between them a great back to the walls performance

If KL win the Home leg then they've done well. Leicester are a cut above everyone at the moment and the improvement in the Lions side from top to bottom this season has been next level especially after the blow of losing Lawson in the winter.
