  1. Feel for you mate, unfortunately British speedway is getting worse by the day, no one seems to have any joined up thinking of how to organise things, same as the British final being on a Saturday when 6 championship teams already had fixtures in place

  2. I think I've just spotted a mistake in the Ipswich fixture list for next week. It says we're racing Belle Vue. Surely it must be Northampton or King's Lynn?

  5. I'm glad I grew up watching Gordon Kennett...a master of the white line and passed many opponents and created so many special memories! Sadly missed but his legacy lives on!

  9. Surprised to see Lawson is riding in Denmark on Wednesday so Chris Harris is going to guest for him especially as clive was banging on about no clashes with Poole fixtures. Tut tut clive more wrong information or was it just another lie.

  11. I'd agree with the "rising star" system being used in the Champ, but don't think Spencer would qualify due to his age. Don't agree that they shouldn't be dropped, it's a sport & a business. Plus that brings in other issues, Workington not being allowed to drop Etherington who wants to be let go or a rider who turns 16 mid-season (Will Cairns) not getting signed as no "RS" is allowed to be dropped, meaning he has to ride in the top 6! It's no surprise Spencer has been dropped as he wasn't scoring well & has been given plenty of matches. There's no guarantee Whalley will do any better as the jump from NL to Champ is massive, but can't blame Plymouth for trying something new.

  12. I agree with the bold part, however no place of work is a charity (unless it is an actual charity of course) and if you don't perform you're rightly moved on.

  13. I have always thought they should save a rain off programme for when it’s re arranged with an insert, at least it’s relevant to the team they are actually riding against

  14. And something that gets my back up is paying full price for a programme which is 2 weeks old with an insert. I realise that costs are involved but they should just charge enough to cover them.

  15. So you think a rider who is 26, Current Avg: 1.42. (Lowest in the League) Should be retained? How many seasons does he need to develop?. There is a paying public that Plymouth have to think of. Tom is obviously out of his depth in the Championship. It's not fair to him to score no points week after week, and it's not fair to the paying public. Sport can be hard, but being dropped is all part of it. imo he has been lucky to last this long; It's only due to the lack of riders that has kept him in the team.

  16. Do we all agree Jenkins should stay for Fredriksen once Battye is fit, he’s shown more in one meeting than Fredriksen has this ‘season’ so far

  18. Like the NSS... There is a tipping point for the track..... On the slick side? (Just), with a dirt line outside, tremendous.. Too grippy, and all ride the berm and follow each other....

  19. Fair play to the Ipswich promotion, they now provide audio for the streaming service before the meeting and some of the interviews during the meeting to those at the track. And on the big screen of course.

  20. Ahhh, if ever a post reflected a nickname...Respectfully that's rubbish. The impact on his confidence finishing that far back in every heat can't be good for him and he's 26! It's not like he's a teenager who is upcoming, I'd argue 26 is far too old to be classified as a rising star anyway. Can't fault Tom's efforts and his professionalism but at this time he's clearly not ready for this level of racing. Hopefully a focus on NL for him will help him potentially secure a Championship place in the future. As for his replacement Ben Whalley, it's a brave shout bringing in an NDL 2 point rider straight into the Championship even with the amount of points he's scored. Anyone know much about him from his Edinburgh form? Either way got to be worth a try!! Good luck to him.

  21. If Poland want to race Thursday, they'll be racing Thursday regardless of Morris agreeing to it or not. Ultimately its down to who writes the biggest cheque, and whether we like it or not that will always be Poland and they'll always get preference over riders.

  22. Well he did get 15 for Glasgow at Poole the other week and scored more than Lawson. It was hot weather that week too, so track should be similar. Also I had money on Bagpuss saying that we should have a NL replacement! 😉 Ooooh, harsh FB!!

  26. That pr*ck continues to be full of himself. I saw his quote where he said he was at the British GP and had plenty of support and people coming up to him saying they were looking forward to seeing him back. Jackanory, Jackanory...

  28. No! No! No!... Landlords and developers... 70's promoters... Poland... Poole Speedway (thanks Iain).. And, (just remembered another).. Brexit.... They, the above, are all to blame for 2026's UK Speedway's issues... I am not sure why fans are not grasping this...

  33. Earlier in the season kemp put all his eggs n the polish basket, but after a few weeks of not being picked or limited fixtures, I think he has now decided/ been persuaded to return to British speedway. Think he will have a point to prove and some wages to earn and score some good points for the Comets

  34. The FIM schedule should have been taken into account before this meeting was arranged. The young kids want to be on an international stage as well as a British stage

  36. Well cooper did tonight to be fair to him after his win! And Brennan came round but only to practice his starts 😂 pretty sure king came round too. Not the same as Doyle going sideways on bend two stock cars concrete track and then the back straight on his rear wheel though!

  37. Good... but the lowest yet. I think Adams is too pally with the riders, doesn't seem to have a ruthless streak like his old man

  38. Awful management by Adams not putting Thomson in heat 12. Cost his team the meeting potentially.

  43. Under the circumstances kemp is a fantastic signing imo.

  44. It's a good thing kemp will be slotting in as a second/third heat leader then. Although didn’t he keep kildemand and Jeppesen out of the number 1 berth at Berwick last season?

  46. I have to say that some of his posts were "interesting" to say the least although he did have some strange theories on some subjects which personally I thought were somewhat questionable but each to their own!
