Looking forward to the GP as for once there is things to be decided! It would be nice IF a world champ would ride for a British club as I can’t see BZ ever bothering over here! Hope Dan gets in the rostrum as well!

Just watched the meeting again - great heat 12 ride from Jason Edwards ! It was also nice to see Jordan there also supporting from the pits etc BV just not at the races

you would have thought they would have done all they could to get a full as possible stadium

That's a basic page 1 lesson on price and demand elasticity!

Wasn't at Foxhall last night - did they keep their usual prices?

It kind of goes against the pre meeting rallying cries about giving it a big effort. Don't talk about giving it the big 100% effort to get to the final if your actions on the night indicate otherwise. Each fan can make their own mind up, I've seen Brady trap and beat Emil / Jason at Ipswich a few times so he can and does do it. Given the track i would have expected him to put the big effort into gating and getting in front. He diodnt seem to be able to gate - nor did Emil for that matter. Anyway good that the Witches had no complacency and we got the result we sort of all expected anyway - who will they meet in the final!!

ah well yes, I thought it was more aimed at success or in Jims case lack of 😆

Not quite sure what people are getting at here, BV have won 2 of the last 4 titles 🙃 plus they are still in the competition for 2025!

Well slight advantage to the Witches I reckon but would suggest no one gets cocky as we all remember 2023!! Not a great night for Emil he was slow away and lacked speed - Jason had a couple of those rides that remind you what a top rider he is! One of two really good races tonight - thought Dan T did well considering he was in the main body of the team and had to face Zach twice DanB and Brady in his 4 rides!! pleased for Jason Edwards too a decent performance to outshine his opposite number! enjoyed it anyway and looking forward to Thursday!

Going to be a fascinating enocunter this as both teams are expected to win their home leg, the Witches last visit to the NSS proved that the Aces are vulnerable at home on occasions, as the Witches are themselves so all to play for. In my view it would be nice to have a Leceister V's Ipswich final so that at least in recent times we have a different winner to the last few years!

Absolutely 👍 will be keeping a close check on this!

Cooper announced as riding for the Thurrock Hammers at the IoW on sept 9th!

Been seeing Coopers videos on Facebook - he looks really good!

Well let’s see they haven’t won or lost anything yet!

Equally we as fans have to understand the saying no plan survives first contact - the beauty of sport of whilst we all turn up and hope and expect our team to win (or lose) sometimes things just don’t work out - sometimes sh it just happens!

Well said - sometimes you just have to live in and enjoy the moment, and on that note congrats to Sheffield, Ipswich will have to show much more in the playoffs which I am sure they will!

Its off!!!

Back in Crookes now and heavy rain like you o fear this will be called off again 5 mins later bloody suns out!! I think they will leave this as late as possible to see if they can get it on!

I am in Neepsend right now S3 about to rain again I fear sun due out at 6pmish it says, i reckon its touch and go but they will probably try and get the meeting on.

I am all for generating noise and atmosphere, the problem for Foxhall is the vast space, thr air horn ban and the fact it noise will just disappear into the air unless lots join in. I quite like presenter and his antics - he's got a decent sense of humour. Oddly one the best noises was the other week when the Witches secured that 5-1 in heat 13 V's Belle Vue with Emil splitting and passing the Aces pair - huge cheers etc which where spontaneous and it could certainly be heard. There was also another guy who filled in for Kevin when he was away - can't recall his name but he was good too!

I agree its cringe mainly because its just a couple of people doing it and it sounds inane - if 15,000 are doing so it's very different!! I was always a big fan of the air horns at Arena as being a disused works or pit - whatever it was they were fine for use there, sadly at Foxhall they are banned! There used to be an air horn user at owlerton but they either gave up or stopped coming a long time ago!

Weather forecast ain't great for next week is it!

enjoy - race starts 1:40

From my recollections Sean was the master on the inside 3rd bend pass, yes there were other lines but that was his trademark. The best pass I ever saw was Complin on Lindgren in that individual meeting many years back - heck that was brave! The arrival of the air fence certainly affected it.
