Berwick V Scunthorpe (pl) Saturday, April 18th
Fromafar replied to crescent girl's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Another one.total trivia I think the poster was pointing out that Allen has machinery for sale was the real jistof the story,and judging by Sat night our riders maybe should be phoning him.think he has a point. -

It's amusing that you only comment on trivial matters,deafening silence on the important issues that you choose too ignore when any thing negative is said against the Promotion(justified or not).Everybody that makes a comment on here is told by the usual mob it's just to make them feel important!!!!!!!!! -

I think green light starts should be introduced more even starts on Sat when it was used.dont see what all the fuss was about the riders just have to look forward instead of looking to the side.Never seen one roller apart from Doyle and the wasn't a roller it was blatant misjudgement. -

don't think they are the level that they were a few seasons ago.Plenty of gaps in the home strait crowd now IMO.Just an opinion though might be totally wrong.Liked the look of Riss at Glasgow yesterday even though he did not score much looks a talent to me,and will be ok when he gets up to speed. -
Gutted for Simon top guy,speedy hope for full recovery.Seb Alden ? He likes Sheffield.

It might sound stupid be the sport needs to slowed down and tracks made deeper and harder to ride requiring more skill and throttle control.These guys are sitting with the throttle on the stop these days and a speck of dirt on the track is catching them out.A nice even coating of dirt is required to learn them throttle control.It was noticable years ago that second half riders who looked great when the track was getting slick struggled in heat 2 of the main meeting when they got a chance in the Team,but at least they had to learn to ride a track with a bit of dirt.

first visit to the refurbished Ashfield,full credit to the promotion for the scale and quality of the work done it is first class.Meeting didn't quite live up to expectations but certainly not anything to with track or facilities.Poor start from Monarchs took the edge of the meeting IMO .Sedgeman was dire why he got 4 rides,at least Branford would have gave 100%.

Have to agree regarding Green light starts,they looked much better that the normal Tapes start no rollers,perhaps transponders on the bikes might be the way forward! -

I agree speedway should come first.It is just a circus now.The ref was a joke regarding the tapes incidents,what he must think this morning when he looks back!!!!!!! there was not a lot wrong with the green light starts,don't see what all the fuss regarding that was about regarding that issue that is in the rules in event of this happening.The riders were not caring about the paying public shame on them.I have seen them ride on far worst tracks when there is a thought that they will lose some earnings. -

You can bet there will be no fines or suspensions for walking out though. -

Good post,their obsession with Temporary Tracks in indoor stadiums just to attract big crowds thinking the meeting will go ahead whatever the weather is backfiring big time plus the racing is not up to scratch IMO.Would not dream of attending these Gps.The riders seem to have went along with it though but now they are having 2nd thoughts because of the injuries they are receiving IMO .The throttle works both ways though !! -

The greed for Gold has backfired on them big time.All these fantastic racing tracks in Poland and they have ars#d it up.
