  1. Looked at speedway star with all fixtures and June date is u/21 european team Final ,can't find a date for Individual Final.As long as David knows that all that really matters!
  2. Woffinden,then put the other names in a hat and make the draw.It won't matter.
  3. It's the fans that keep the sport alive no doubt a few will give the re-run a miss.Speedway keeps shooting itself in the foot with disregarding the paying public.Better Medical cover is the obvious answer irrespective how often that kind of situation arises.
  4. That rule seems to be ignored these days at certain tracks.
  5. No problem but I witnessed Doug punch his brother Willie after a race incident at Coatbridge so hell knows what he would have done to someone he didn't know.
  6. In Doug Templetons hey-day Nicki would have left the track on a stretcher !!!!!!! After such a move.
  7. The riders know what to expect when racing Nicki and can look after themselves,but the authorities have take matters in hand if riding gets out of order IMO.All other forms of Motor Sport have penalties for riders and drivers who they believe have went to far.
  8. Makes you wonder what equipment he uses for EL.Fair play to him though GP form has returned to last years level.very smooth last night.I really think British League speedway would be better off without these GP riders not sure they are giving it their best shot.
  9. It does rule out any arguments if the riders can see the clock when ignoring Start Marshall.
  10. I think you are doing Edinburgh disservice while Edinburgh is 25 miles from Armadale ,Livingston Hospital is about 5 miles away and is a major A &E .Anytime I Have been at Armadale the Ambulance situation has been dealt with with minimum disruption
  11. I like Nichols calm approach and sensible analysis of the meeting .Unlike the gobbledygook the Sam and Co spout.
  12. How do work that one out when they have been using a guest for Berge since he got injured
  13. Yer right, but unfortunately Social Media shows up the intellect of a number of riders.
  14. I quoted earlier the Berwick meeting was abandoned because the Doctor had to go in the Ambulance so that is obviously another area that should be looked into.Dont really see any conspiracy theories Posted.
  15. That's my point too,you have to eliminate these situations arising.
  16. Have to agree,the number of call -offs ,abandonments and meeting delays is causing major problems even die -hard fans are getting fed up these days.While riders safety is paramount there has to be better measures in place regarding meetings delays.Basically when treatment to the rider on the track is finished and he has been removed the meeting should then restart.Medical cover needs to be improved even if it is an extra expense.Standing around chatting for an hour in between delays is not every fans way of a good nights entertainment.
  17. I agree regarding your view of the incident,but Nicki antics in the pits were disgraceful for a professional sportsman .No respect for him.
  18. I don't know about the ambulance situation but when Kyle crashed with Complin the doctor had to go in the ambulance and the meeting was abandoned.More than 1 doctor might be the solution.
  19. Best wishes to Kyle,by a strange coincidence when Kyle was injured against Berwick at Workington the doctor gave him morphine and had to accompany him to hospital.Does this happen at other tracks.
  20. I think the 2 min clock should be introduced certainly works in GP's.All this turning back re-tensioning chain is it really necessary ,they get to the gate then spend another minute ignoring the start marshal,Refs have to stamp this practice out and support the starter.Im sure a couple of exclusions early in the meeting would solve the problems.
