First time watching Pirates TV…bloody hell, I’ve never heard such a biased commentary in a LONG time!! 🤣 Not even a hint of impartiality!! 🤣

Ok Leon you know what you have to do anything less than 3 points is job done. I am sure Gerry will make up the shortfall, any questions asked about your performance just say you had a burger for lunch and it must have been dodgy.

I've come up with a brilliant idea, that nobody has thought of... don't call it the Knock Out Cup!

Did you post that with a straight face Lewy? Hmm, maybe we should do what the Plymouth comms do and scream down the microphone when they are winning lol. Can't wait for that tomorrow lmao. Everyone is biased on their own stream, lord give me strength. Are you 5 years old?

Yeah, this is painful. There’s natural bias, but this is childish. My new season enthusiasm got the better of me and I purchased this. The only excitement has been the incidents. The rain off at Armadale is more exciting than this. New season, same rubbish.

Broken femur, eye socket, punctured lung and damaged ribs. Not good at all. Speedy recovery Tobi.

What has he got against Scotland? 🤷‍♀️😁

Not sure why anyone would think something called Pirates TV would be anything other than one eyed.

And they still haven’t realised Spencer was in for Klima in Heat 9. They are still banging on about how he won’t have enough rides.

For what it is worth, I think that Poland has far too much influence in British Speedway. 🤬 They should not dictate to riders and Clubs over here. 🤬 Let them run their own Sport, and keep their collective noses out of other people's business. 🤬

Its not the clubs fault its down to the rider who signs for a polish club knowing full well they will miss matches in his home country time to tell poland to do one show some backbone.

There’s been a lot less rain in Berwick today than originally forecast fingers crossed it’s the same tomorrow.

As it turned out it was gate 1 and gate 4 to some extent that turned out to be difficult. My perennial complaint is why don't the track staff fix it? Back in the day we had a man or men with rakes on the start line that would fix any obvious problems. Oh I know that there was always accusations of doctoring the gates for the next race in favour of the home team. But if one gate was deep or slick, at least with some attention this could be improved. Uneven gates are annoying especially in key heats (13,15 and especially any super heat).

I was going to use Horace Goes Flying as the title... but couldn't think of a name rhyming with Horace 😂

Yep remember that and Manic Miner.

Been said elsewhere it is 4.82 🤷‍♀️ For @Neila as i know you'll want to know his thoughts ahead of new season 😉

Yes. Beat the opposing rising star away from home...... job done

So in other words he did his job.

Belle Vue fans won't need to worry about what it's called soon anyway. By the end of the Easter weekend they will be concentrating on the league. 😉

It really is just a joke sport.Will Flint help Monarchs eliminate Tigers or vice versa.

Edinburgh will easily finish Top 4 well balanced team. After watching Dan last Saturday he looks like he will go up another level our loss is Edinburgh’s gain. I am away for a lie down now after that prediction

Thank you both, thats great info and really reassuring, not been to Poole for well over a decade and will have my little one with me so it's good to know we should be able to park at or near the stadium. Really looking forward to it and hopefully we'll see a Pirates win

Sounds very nasty ,nobody likes to see riders badly injured.wish him well and good recovery.

To be fair Rob is ok in comms but the other guy is an absolute melt.

I spotted it on the stream pair of clowns

Frogger

Or the microwave doesnt work!

Yes, I believe that is right, but where the money is coming from now, who knows?Courtney registered Oxford Speedway Ltd in January this year, so maybe he has another income source. I also heard a rumour that he has been asked to cover the lease until October at £20,000 a month. How true that is…

Currently flying around Grimsby....

Reid looked good at p+p also. It was incredibly wet at Glasgow and I can’t imagine he has ever ridden a speedway bike in those conditions before. I timed a few laps at p+p and he was within .5 of a second of (an admittedly not fully fit) Morris. I think once he gets in the swing of riding uk track he will be a bright talent. Tonight’s meeting vs the monarchs is off unfortunately.

oh okay then 43-47 😃

Just read in this week’s Speedway Star that between 2001 and 2010, either Adrian Rymel or Michal Makovsky topped Berwick’s averages in nine of those ten seasons. Remarkable. A return well worth the risk the Bandits took when they brought those two over the UK along with Josef Franc. On a separate note, I thought Reid Battye looked right on the pace at Ashfield in the BEN Fund, despite his points tally. Shielfield might be tough to navigate at first, but I think you could have a young man with a lot of potential on your hands. All the best at Armadale tonight Bandits.

Given he will be listed as riding in the programme tonight, and would have ridden, maybe RR would be an acceptable compromise... A fit for purpose RR facility would actually reduce guests several fold across the leagues..

Well they have very wealthy supporters like yourself mate.

Hard to believe all the worried Poole fans it's only little ole Plymouth,the poor neighbours down the road.

You do realise Poland have priority at the weekend. Nothing anyone can do especially when it was agreed by everyone.

He's riding tonight

they missed out faster than a formula 1 car,,

the next time i go to Sheffield is when the back straight is open.

It’s the 5-point riders that often struggle to find a spot. Too high to be a reserve, too low to be a sure bet. They’re the ones that get squeezed for the final spots.

I particularly like Brett’s prediction it gives you the feel good factor seeing it. Should get him to predict a Hibs relegation next season as well if his prediction here comes up.

Obviously Harris is no replacement for Kurtz but Brady only scored 4 and 9 at Sheffield last season and Blodorn 2 and 1 so they aren’t huge losses Aces clearly weak as usual away from home

But it is still the knock out cup... but in a new innovation, in the best interest of the sport... you just don't get knocked out, simple, everyone's a winner 👍🏻😁

I thought it might be an incentive to write the long awaited sequel? And "At least we can't finish 10th" sounds like a great title :)

In "The Donald we trust"...........how on earth did the US ever vote this guy in, not once but twice! Anyoo staycation it is this year and e few speedway races to watch maybe.

Could well be an away win

Didn't even read the post as couldn't get past the memories of Jet Set Willy on the Spectrum from back in the day

I have downloaded it on my iPhone, sky box and Apple TV box today. basically it is a replatformed sports element from discovery + platform. Looks like a lift and shift of content. you have to continue paying for tnt sports with your existing subscription provider. For me that is BT / EEtv.

So you can get home at a decent and have your cocoa before bedtime 😜
