  1. Reid at reserve throughout September, then JJ from Oct 1st.
  2. The winners get 1200 quid each. 3rd place get 500 each. Below that you can probably work it through but you can see why no one is interested.
  3. Anyone of the riders except Nichols who drop out should have a 6 meeting ban across both leagues. Already suspect / heard there will be no Jeppersen, Batch, Kidderman, Morris. Why is the money so poor for this meeting ?
  4. The refs decision is consistent with many other decisions made during racing incidents and non incidents. Let me explain. Last night Ben ran into Jye and crashed and was therefore the cause of the stoppage. Straight forward and as per the rules and not controversial. However the root cause of the crash was Jye pulling a locker. I have seen many occasions when a rider in front gets into trouble, clearly impedes the rider behinds race but never gets pulled up if no crash. There was a Worky v Scunthorpe mtg and one of the Comets was all over the place and nearly took out Steve Worrall. Luckily Worralls experience avoided a crash, but left him stone last whilst the Comet on the bucking bronco continued. At Berwick 2 weeks ago Reid Battye reared on the back straight, caught the fence and bounced across the track hitting teammate Palovaara and Workys Jeppersen ending the Danes race. Battye still won the race, but he impeded an opponent and went un punished. The root cause of incidents should be targeted not the outcome.

  6. When he has a moment to reflect Richard Coleman should start with track prep. However, he needs to be honest and start with he needs to ensure riders have a surface to perform on to create a spectacle every time at every level in the sport. I worry though that he may be oblivious to how good the sport could be as one of the consistently poor tracks this year has actually been Ipswich, his own track and no lessons seem to have been learnt there, so I wouldn’t hold my breath. On a good day there is nothing to compete with a good speedway meeting but a close tussle at the top or a close team meeting is not enough to drag punters back.
  7. Will Saturday v Berwick be called off due to a footy match in Miami
  8. How about Lassa Fredricksen instead of Simon Lambert.
  9. Same Olly the wally who chose not to use his reserve in Son 2 in Prague until it was too late.
  10. As it was Grand Prix will Jack have to pay some of his signing on fee back in Poland
  11. Love the genius that is Cammy Brown. Once again Leon Flint top scores but Bomber and Kyle get ht 15 nomination.
  12. I would drop NK and give Tom Brennan 28 days then Charles may be back.
  13. Tin hat time, but I think Jason Garrity is on his to way Scunthorpe very soon on an average under 5.
  14. Not sure what the ref is thinking but that was Dan T exclusion everyday of the week anywhere in the world except Armadale.
  15. Nick is not a good team man. Very self centred . But a very good individual rider who will get better and better
  16. For tac subs and ht 15 Cammy thinks he is only allowed to use Bomber and Kyle
  17. Changing tracks always hurt the home team more. Before everyone jumps on the who’s to blame bandwagon. The three heat leaders only managed 6 wins between them. When their wins drop to 2nd places, the second string and reserves 2nd and 3rd places drop back also, hence 1s and zeros. Won’t be a season full of home wins as on any given day all bar Northampton (current team) can win away from home An unpredictable season ahead.
  18. Easy win for Poole to complete emphatic thrashing. Scunny need a re think quick or season over in May
