First visit down to new Worky and really enjoyed it, great wee set up and clearly a lot of love and hard work has gone into it, congratulations. The dust was the worst I have encountered since the days of Newport but once I got myself to the 3rd bend all was good. I thought the racing was excellent, no idea what some of the maniacs on here are moaning about. Well done Worky, bad day at the office for our boys, it happens!

Shame I never saw you yesterday, haven't seen you since the Derwent Park days . Look yesterday was one of those days , it happens, Workington were better than us on the day . We still have much to look forward to , beat Edinburgh on Friday and we finish top . But we need to gate much better on Wednesday to have any chance of overcoming Poole in the KO Cup .

First trip to Workington’s new home, great venue, really impressed its definitely got room for growth. As for today’s racing it was really hampered by an ultra slick powdery surface which the water just couldn’t adhere to and soak in so was simply back to being dry and dusty in minutes. The inside line was the place to be for the vast majority of races. Impressive performances from Fraser Bowes and Anti Voulas, with good back up from Jye Etheridge and Jacob Hook. As for Glasgow the just couldn’t get out of the gate, Kyle Howarth was always there or thereabouts in his 5 races resulting in winning ht15 and spoiling the two home riders maximum hopes. It'll have been said before but sure this venue would benefit from floodlights and have evening meetings under lights where the moisture will start coming up naturally rather than battling with the heat and wind during the afternoon meetings, but it’s a track I’ll come back to again

Lynn to win by 20, Tungate to drop his mechanic live on Eurosport.

Again another great night at Plymouth and another big crowd who loved every moment. The crowds are getting bigger and it’s consistent, it really is rising in popularity in Plymouth and the work the media team, Barry and mark have done is incredible. not sure how to post videos from Facebook on to here but there is a brilliant one summarising the evening and it really engages with the locals. Also the touch of added brilliance of the fire work display really added to the event. I feel like Plymouth could be a team to watch next year 👀

Maybe he is on aGM too.😂

I did comment on Kings Lynn so Premiership related. Morris has done pretty much zero as far as I can see to help with anything.

I think Nicolai is deserving of a testimonial for his commitment to this country. Albeit, he's not served 10 years at a single club, he has given 17 years to this country. Also, his commitment to Kings Lynn, as it probably is for any club he rides for, is deserving. He has earned the Captains armband, for his presence both when things are going well, but also he's not afraid to front up when the team, or even himself, have had a bad night. For 2026, would I take him back? Yes i would. Those awful Witches look like they will be in or around winning the title, and these are the starting and current rolling averages. Jason Doyle 9.36 8.42 Emil Sajfutdinow 9.12 8.38 Tom Brennan 6.52 7.09 Danny King 6.14 6.64 Adam Ellis 5.47 5.88 Dan Thompson 3.11 5.42 For Nicolai to be effective, he needs to have a top 2 above him, dare I say a Lambert and Kvech, a couple of riders to take the pressure off him. He can then Captain and ride with freedom, and I can still honestly see him putting something on his current 6.42. We need 3/4 riders who will improve from 2025 to 2026, and a number 1, whoever that may be. A strong number 6 has worked to an extent this season, and maybe a fit Ben Cook would still see us challenging for a PO spot, but I don't think we are that far away.

Good track or bad track ? Tiggers only had 3 heat winners can't win a meeting without winning heats !! Well done to the comets did not see that result coming, think their was several passes throughout the meeting, thanks for the Tigger fans for coming down, the better team won on the day . we produce some strange results through the year, if Godfrey and co did not pinch 2 points off us, we could be on the edge of the play offs. Whatever UTC 😄

No bewley in nominated races, janowski in ? Really

Tai has always been a”see me” guy ,Plenty of cash ,foul language and pretending he is just one of the boys.

Top first 4 heats.

ill be there for the 2nd leg, should be good. would of liked a 10 pt lead. to make it more interesting.

Making for fantastic Sunday afternoon entertainment

11 last places for Gorzow. Lucky that Thomsen has been outstanding or they could've been buried.

Sometimes you remember the stupid things that happen, as a Canterbury supporter four very stupid memories come back. when the supporters on the coach had a whip round to buy Mike Ferreria from Coatbridge so he could ride that night. The time the coach driver was declared as our number 8 at Berwick so we didn't get a fine for not having enough riders, An injured Bob Spelta shouting abuse at fellow Ausies at Crayford and a Crayford supporter telling him he should try riding if he thought he could do better, with Bob pointing out he got ten points last time he was there. But the highlight must be the time Barry Thomas started his bike in the back of the coach full of supporters while on the motorway on the way to an away match. Frightened the life out of everyone including the driver. Good times.

I have posted similar on this forum before, only to be shot down by those 'in the know' that. Throttles never stick, cut outs always work, it's no risk. Despite the rule book stating the lanyard must be attached whilst the motor is running. It is, after all only a rule

Surely Mr Morris put a stop to all this kind of farce, when he became the head of all things good in uk speedway.

A real shame to be shutting down with over 2 months of the season still to go then 🤷‍♂️

Hopefully Ellis is ok. We’ll find out when the Sheffield preview drops on Tuesday. If he ends up missing the play offs, then Rew has to come in to the equation surely? Average fits, and he still feels like a Witches rider so more palatable than someone else. After a slow first half of the season, he’s ridden in to good form the last third of the season also.

far less satisfying though when you doctor your home track to do it far better to give everybody a decent surface and may the vbest team win

We do need to get a grip on the dust, it's not acceptable to paying fans or a good selling point when trying to recruit new fans. You should be able to watch from were you wish without getting covered end of.

Only dust at norhside was from cammi,s car rushing out the carpark 🤣

I would just like to say thank you to all the Tigers fans who made the journey to Worky today, you guys are a credit to not only Glasgow Tigers but speedway in general.👌

You mean, what's it all about?

No complaints Workington the better team on the day by a considerable distance. Bad day at the office it happens I am sure we will bounce back. well done to Workington rode the track well.

No, I'm saying the track is the same for both teams, as a neutral I've seen better and I've seen worse, if you're blaming the track for the Tigers performance you're way off the mark my friend.

BSN is a commercial enterprise independent of BSPL/SCB and they don’t have the right let alone the power to fine anyone. The fight should have boosted their business and they will be grateful for it. I suspect the ruling bodies will see it differently as they seem to have lost sight of what constitutes entertainment.

Tbf I tend to waffle and lose track but in what way have I talked my way out of a job? Pretty sure what I’ve said was correct, and I include myself in that category, the club does need to change its attitude. Imagine my job with Ryan is reasonably safe so at least I have that to fall back on.

If that’s the extent of there fight they wouldn’t last 30 Seconds on a Saturday night in Glasgow city centre. They would probably be someone’s bitches by now if they fought like that.

Should get these rules out of the rulebook then... or enforce them, rules shouldn't be optional from either side, that's a very big problem with Speedway and it's not getting any better.

Rubbish, Was not close, was not side by side, Wright had no reason to have throttle open as they crossed the line and definitely not after the line. Was upset because he got beat and wrote off Jake Allens bike.

Speedway needs an award for: Save of the season, because that was it for sure from that wheelie.

Aye, stopped Doyle momentum there

Wrong decision for me, as much as he does catch Doyle he does nothing wrong and Doyle is turning in

Naughty from woryna there and looked like bike running out of fuel on run to the line

What has happened to Speedway Updates website? Nothing at all on today. Neither Leicester nor Oxford.

Aside from striding about shouting at track graders with his Britney Spears style headset on, I agree.

In fairness to TM he has always been great value and dedicated to British Speedway. And usually a very reliable heat leader.

Mark Thorpe if I remember correctly... I was there that night. All these rules are there for a reason, probably insurance related (?) and if they're not adhered to they probably wouldn't pay out.

One thought on the crash, if Allen had kept his throttle on for the first 2 bends after the close finish, Wright wouldn't have run into him. Occasionally when you see a really close finish & riders shut-off straight away, the challenging rider(s) can find it hard to avoid them. This wouldn't be necessary if a rider is miles in front, but should riders do an extra bend if they know someone's right behind them at the finish?

this is how you lose folks with a bit of class glasgow are a quality speedway team they just had a bad day today

Can you stop mentioning him now please. There's no better sight than Chris Harris scraping the airfence to make a pass, at any track, but instead today we've seen the Workington riders making passes inside and out, quite a decent entertaining meeting. Well done Workington, good team effort.

BSPL are clearly doing what they are expected to do -- promoting, 'acting in the best interests of the sport' by posting the fight as entertainment Referee reported both riders to SCB, who will doubtless take action in due course, penalising the riders for 'bringing the sport into disrepute' Two separate organisations

Well…. I would say Wright more than held his own during that encounter. Comfortable points winner. You, on the other hand, are preaching from behind a keyboard about how hard somebody is.

Some good racing tonight from both teams, and a last heat decider to finish off another terrific Scottish Derby. Glasgow showing a bit of grit to pull through a chaotic night , Edinburgh pushed all the way. Fair play to both teams for an entertaining night of speedway.

A comment that clearly shows you know absolutely hee haw about the true facts, so best leave the rocket science to others

@Gavan always goes on that Jaimon Lidsey can't ride anywhere apart from NSS, yet he has a higher away average then Jason Doyle and only 0.08 below Emil.

What they should do is write this as a response: The local council acknowledges the thoughts from our locals and would like to counter the proposal of a speedway stadium, if the locals would prefer a different type of community feel we are much for this and to reduce the count in traffic volumes we would like to announce that the speedway stadium will not be built in this location and instead, a new hotel will be built in its place to house migrates. The hotel will bring more jobs to the local area and we very much back this idea. Goodbye!

Great stuff! There were a few pictures of the back straight at Newport and I don't ever remember it being that busy but it was packed out!
