  1. Agree 100%. Facenna’s have built up a good support over the last couple of years,now they see about a dozen meetings a season.Must be Frustrating.
  2. Have the same problem get a bundle about twice a week.These Companies paying 1st Class rates are getting a very poor deal.
  3. Ditto. I went to my local Post Office Delivery Office to ask if there was a problem as my mail delivery is erratic,he said staff shortages doesn’t help.Interesting he also suggested that way the delivery envelope is formatted with the return Address at the top of front page might cause an issue with the Laser sensors which scan Mail causing them not to recognise the Real delivery Address at the bottom of the page.Which could cause a delay as the would have to be scanned by hand again.( not sure if that is valid though).Dave at Pinegen said my Post Code had a few issues last week though Personally I think it’s just Royal Mail poor delivery service. Ps. It was in my local Tesco Store on time.
  4. It’s quite difficult to figure out the fixture planning for the Championship.IMO.
  5. Lewi doesn’t have his troubles to seek.Injury prone if you read his article in SS.More injuries this season doesn’t help .
  6. Would agree some virtually every SGP2 rider there plus decent Aussie Team IMO.
  7. Harris and Worrell seem sorted.Leon is riding to his average.
  8. The Championship is at rock bottom regardingTeam Strengths.Self interest still prevails ,admission prices still rising it’s not all rosy.IMO. Streaming is helping a few Clubs.IMO.
  9. Vinnie is good prospect,but this continued weakening of the League does but a lot more pressure for young riders to perform above their average.It is a big step up for these guys. Not many have make a huge impact .
  10. He does have a tendency to ride a tight inside line most of the time which is a dodgy style on patchy tracks. IMO He got away with it at Glasgow because track conditions suited his style.Wish him well though and hope he has a speedy recovery.
  11. Looks like they needed 100,000 judging by comments.
  12. They are smart business men.They have always maintained that the Speedway has to pay for itself.They know the Maths involved.
  13. Finances probably dictate Attendances for Families.Also travel cost if your are not local.Berwick gave it a good go in NDL don’t think crowds were great though given the Team they had .Lot of organising to not not any money.
  14. Camera work at Berwick was particularly poor last week compared to other visits. Missed most of the action.
  15. Needs to stick to Commentating.Injury prone.
  16. He does tend to ride a tight inside line a lot which catches him out on a patchy track track.Glasgow was perfectly prepared for his riding style.(always well prepared).
  17. Garrod is certainly no improvement on Hodder.
  18. It’s the way of things nowadays ,the riders want it slick.Its the fans that suffer.Its not the best Entertainment.
  19. The straights at Berwick are not narrow the entrance to the bends we’re widened a few seasons ago but unfortunately has not made much difference as there really is only one fast line into the bends(unless your Chris Harris who is just awesome round Shielfield). Most of the decent riders can ride the track and if are in the lead they are going that fast overtaking is at a premium.IMO. The racing line these days is on about metre from the fence it’s daredevil stuff to overtake.IMO.The track is FIM approved.
  20. Is it a change or a signing though.We are a rider short 2 in fact.
  21. Would agree,track is one line,apart from Harris who is different League round Berwick one pass after back straight from Kemp is your lot.
