Yes he looks a good signing and on this form we should keep Kyle in my opinion.

I watched the stream as a neutral and it looked a 50/50 to me. No malice whatsoever by either rider

I’m not sure why riders don’t get their own cover anyway, I took mine out in 1994 with the CICA and still have it today because it covers you for pretty much everything except war but even with personal cover it does not let speedway off the hook to provide cover too, I see the bspl are saying the ACU covers it now, what about foreign riders who don’t ride under the ACU ?

I'd quit while you're behind 😂

Good meeting great crowd wrong result for me but the best team on the night was Poole so no complaints from me.

In the good old days when we had a functional sport with competitors. For how many years did we have the old fashioned tactical rule of using any rider when 6 points behind. I always thought it worked quite well to be honest?

In Zachs defence, he wasn’t going to do championship and only did it after a bit of extra persuading after the Anders situation. Maybe the promise that they’d be much more lenient in allowing him to miss meetings, as the championship this season, is rightfully the bottom of his priorities

Next Saturday there will be tears in north London. Cherries coming for the three points! 🍒

Great result for Saints and the mighty Pirates.

Sorry Blobby, but check the updates heat 10 Frazer beat Danny King and gained a 5-1

Paul and Scott run a speedway academy (of sorts) and have done for a couple of years now, he did say he was team manager of grass track team so a bit of knowledge, he will obviously not be up to Ritchie standard quite yet, but then Ritchie was a cut above most managers regards rules etc. I know a lot of you will laugh at that but trust me some of the TM's haven't a clue regards the rules and you'd probably be surprised who the worst ones are.

And without Zach, good move putting Edwards at 2 as well.

What a performance from Poole.

Yes indeed in general - but this is Kings Lynn and you have to always start optimistically

60-30

I'd definitely get rid of tactical subs for home teams.....if you are 6 behind at home then tough luck.

Basically yet another balls up by the BSPL, what a useless bunch of clowns they are, but hey never mind we have a new Track and Team so everything is on the up, or so they believe.

Yea maybe not a spectator thing, but the flat track organiser rents the stadium for ££s but organises everything else, the running and insurance etc, so it must be a good money earner for the home promotion

Put same rain down when I was on the night shift 20 miles south of the track, wet again when I’ve got up so right decision. Can’t imagine the track would have been in any condition to race.

Wouldn’t be like Ben Barker to open his mouth without knowing what he’s talking about would it. 😁

i follow speedway and haven't a clue what's going on 😁

This needs some clarification by the BSPL and SCB urgently, as opposed to the usual "ignore it and it'll go away" policy. If riders are riding without proper insurance, then its a massive red flag for both promoters and riders

This is a big failing of club streamers. Home fans go to the track to watch live while time and cost means away fans buy the stream. And add in neutrals who just tune in for a good meeting. Which means a high proportion of the viewers don't want to hear endless moans about the exclusion of the rider in red or why the rider in white was 'lucky' to win the race.

So the rules change mid-competion... that really makes no sense at all... only in Speedway!

I usually get there around 5.45 ( gates open 6.30) and there are usually plenty of spaces. The car park is used during the day for public parking including hospital day workers. If an overflow is needed the school next door is made available. The stadium charge £3.50 cash on entry on speedway nights. Enjoy.

Under the current leadership the sport is doomed. They are running it into the ground.

Because round one is league format. Only in 2 legged ties is tac sub not allowed

You can hardly celebrate that! 😄

Apparently not. Been a good day for me in London supporting my team and I dont mean the boat race!!

Kyle has started the first two meeting from a standing start on fire! And to think he couldn’t get a team berth last season.

Fair play to Bowes on his first ever visit.

I've just tested my setup from last year as suggested above and it still appears to work 👍🏻 That's using the TvBro Web browser on the android tv platform.

Lawson wins. Good to see Richard not affected from last night.

You don’t have to wait until Monday night, there are fixtures from last season everyone can watch for free right now, which will be the same system and allow you to try things out. As has been communicated there are various options, and also this webpage https://guide.britishspeedwaynetwork.co.uk which gives a step by step guide of the other ways to connect. If you still have problems email the BSN support, but best to check now. The new website allows a lot of new features including live pause and rewind, and will cope with future advances as well.

Is that the case, I wonder? From the context of Barker's post it seems that it might not be. Whatever, the change seems to have been poorly communicated and the fault seems to lie more with the SCB than with BSPL but ti might prove to be problematic for non-ACU licence holders.

With tonight's meeting off, thanks to the Berwick Speedway YouTube channel you can enjoy the Berwick v Edinburgh match from 2022. Meeting start at 7.

No one, and I mean no one around me thought Lawson was at fault. A rider on the outside often comes around and clamps the rider on the inside. It looked like Tobias lifted and collected them both. With the aid of a replay in slow motion it could well look different and I am not saying Lawson wasn’t hard. We all know Lawson never, ever takes prisoners. I recall one time where he said he went light on a rider because they were an inexperienced young rider who had gated in front of him. As team mates last season and next to each other in the pits all last season I doubt there was any animosity whatsoever. Just bikes that hooked up and they ploughed in.

Thanks for that. It was good meeting what I saw. Young Vilads Nagel impressive . Lodz done well to get the draw with the 2-4 & 1-5 in heats 14 and 15. Wish there were more community stadiums like that available to British Speedway Clubs.

Both Thomsen and Lawson piled into the third bend airfence at full speed with their bikes. Be surprised the crash footage will be available due to Tobias’ injuries. The airfence did it’s job to a certain extent, and had to be replaced.

Clarification of a sort. Again though, poorly communicated and a statement that feels like it was rushed through

Clarification issued. Has Ben misunderstood? https://www.scbgb.co.uk/news.php?extend.242.1

This is not good. Taken from Speedway Plus on X: Very interesting comments from Ben Barker on Pirates TV this evening: "..with the riders now being told we've got no rider insurance by the BSPL, so we're not actually insured, to a certain extent, ...the rider insurance needs to be addressed immediately" Ben has also posted on social media himself tonight reiterating this and saying he will most probably get fined for revealing this but it needs to be said.

R/R Also there are plenty of residential side roads off Wimborne Road to park down.

Assuming it’s back to 7:30 start. 6pm I’m sure you’d get a space, and worst case scenario you’d be directed into the school car park, I usually get there closer to 7 and have never not been able to park in the main car park or school.

What has he got against Scotland? 🤷‍♀️😁

Get out your Cheque Book then.

they missed out faster than a formula 1 car,,

Does any of us seriously believe that if this was a Polish Extraliga fixture, Mr Kurtz would be missing. I think not.
