Sheffield Ipswich and Belle Vue are very easy to intrepet, on paper Ipswich are the best of those 3 - BIrmingham, Leicester are a little tricker and Kings Lynn are mixed along with the stocks so its impossible to see as they didn't seperate out. Peterboroughs were fairly easy to see, no idea about Oxford.

I think this is all but over - I hope KL turn up and make a decent go of it, the league match earlier in July was fairly entertaining thanks to Harris and Lawson both of them need to turn up and score well!

Well publish and be damned is a famous phrase, don't allude to unpaid wages state or shut up - thats not aimed at you but the usual suspects who state 'i spoke to a bloke down the pub who knows something types' - however I can state that if anyone cares too tootle along to companies house it provides an illuminating reading into the profitability or not of the companies that operate speedway teams!! I discussed changes with my Tigers mate last friday and we both agreed something was very likely to happen this week, If I was either Kerr and Sedgeman I'd be reluactant to ride for Sheffield again as this is the 2nd time they have been jettisoned. Etheridge is probably a decent switch - Morris is a risk - he's been out for 2 years! Kinda a final roll of the dice for the Tigers!

ignore! misread the post!

😆 but but haven't Brum duffed up the Aces a couple of times against expectation previously - perhaps this will be another one! 😉

So Discovery+ have emailed me this AM to advise of another price rise WEF 28th August 25 new price £33.99. I am currently on a special deal of £15.49 until mid / end of October so unless a new discounted offer is made I won't be renewing at that price!

No skin in this game so wanting to enjoy as a neutral - good luck to both sides - reckon Leicester will probably shade this - will be watching the Thursday stream with interest.

Pleased for him - he rode well for the Tigers the other year didn’t really do anything wrong and found himself out etc - he’s just got on with it!

Leicester really seem to have Sheffield in their pockets right now, saw them win there the other season and tonight's is another impressive result! They are certainly gathering momentum whilst Sheffield appear to be losing it!

Well the Brummies loss is the Witches gain - he's looked decent so far scoring a few points but tonight's haul is possibly his best ever - he may well end up giving the Ipswich management a dilemma of their own when the 28th day comes!

I enjoyed it too - close fought match and there was some decent ‘racing’ there was passing also - got to commend Howarth for a cracking first bend in heat 3 and kudos to Kerr for not dropping it down - I suppose he dished it out Thursday and he took it - good to see hard riding and racing!

I am inclined to agree that it was a bit of gaming from Lyon - the ref in the other hand should have known - even I sodding knew and I have never even read the rule book!! what people have also overlooked is it gets the KL / Ipswich rivalry, which had been really one sided of late back, to a more even footing which can only been good for the sport - a few boos a a panto villain in Kerr and Rob Lyon playing silly beggars over a rule!!

Heat 14 was literally last chance saloon it should never have got to that!

After opening with a 5-1 the tie should have been over long before the heat 14 incident, it could have gone either way Kerr did put on a right burst of speed but from where I sat there was no contact. (exit of 2nd bend on the grandstand) Ipswich were poor too many errors and last places - track wasn't helping there was some passing but not a lot. One of the only real passes of the night was DanT on Kerr before Kerr then steamed up the inside. I'd like to see a replay of it!! I was really good to see Bomber mixing it - he and Klindt bascially took the Stars through tonight. Good luck to Lynn I think Leicester will win but it must feel good for them to be in the final, its been a lean few years!

Harrison is in heat 15 now 😆

alternartive route back then! Thanks for the warning! Apple maps confirms usual route back is a no go tonight!

I expect the Witches to progress and they will have the bit between their teeth after they in my view 'gave' the polints to Kings Lynn on Monday! Kvech can be good at Foxhall, particualrly if he gates - Lawson is usually fairly decent too.

Birmingham owe Oxford a walloping - thin k it will be close however!

Well I gave up to watch something else after heat 13 - however up until heat 7 I was actually quite enjoying it as I said earlier there was some early heat passing and Oxford were keeping it close.

Should have been an away win! Well done Lynn looking forward to Thursday now at Foxhall - The Witches need to win well to get this poor result out of their system!

So why didn’t you? Or did you?

I enjoyed it until about heat 8-9 then depending on how you view it Oxford collapsed / Sheffield woke up (aided by Rowes withdrawal) - at that point it became dull.

all manner of things but if he's been admitted to hospital as the preview says then it might well be more worrying than us just assuming he is ducking the meeting I play football with a guy who in his late 30s was complaining his heart rate in the recent heat was too high in the middle of a match it was about 160 - i said to him that 220bpm less 10 per decade over 20 is the max rate - so a man in his late 30s should be capable (if they are fit) of about 190

Expect an away win now but feel Lynn will run them close, be intresting to see how Danny King performs he's been really good of late and his confidence must be high!

I feel there is something in this for the last few years everytime KL start to get a bit of momentum something happens and they take a step back again - often from wehre I am it seems a self inflicted a lot of the time! Interesting that Tobias despite riding for the bottom club this season appears to be giving it his full focus etc, Pickering the same at Sheffield etc.
