Exactly that, most if not all Polish track's are prepared the same and made for throttle jockeys, pin the throttle and hold on pretty much, they ain't technical and varied tracks like you find in the UK and also have to ride in difficult conditions at times.

It said on another thread that he pulled out coz of illness after 2 rides, shame for the lad being under 21 final, hope he's fit for tomorrow up at Brum coz he's been riding really well all season.

Totally agree, Scotty is fine guesting at home but not the answer as Doyle's long term replacement, don't think even a top GP rider will cover what Doyle brings to the team wk in wk out, another issue is how long will Ellis be out for, i see talk of King being back for British Final.

Where's this news/rumour coming from

Scotty still a class act at 46, yeah he can struggle round the bigger tracks but can still hustle it round Foxhall and the smaller tracks like a rider half his age, shame he couldn't of been tempted back to Foxhall for one last season b4 he finally calls time on a fine career.

I'd happily settle for a rain off if the weather's a bit iffy coz tbf this meeting could go either way result wise with Ipi missing 3 riders, Scotty, Batch and R/R won't cover the usual return from Doyle, King and Ellis round Foxhall and most if not all the Leicester riders get round Foxhall well generally.

I'm 15 miles away Bury St Edmunds side n it's hissing down atm

Tbf to Drew he's a much different rider if he makes the gate compared to when he doesn't, watched him round Ipswich plenty of times and normally couldn't pass no one if he didn't gate, haps Leicester are thinking Cook can mix it more than Drew if he doesn't gate.

Hope Doyle isn't to badly hurt, not heard nothing official regarding suspected broken arm, good to see Emil finally showing the form he showed last year, also to me Rew should be doing better riding at reserve.

If Lynn have many more alleged rain offs they might end up being the first club to finish the season on minus points

Lynn got docked 2 league points i see after investigation

Showing my age now, but i remember Chris wearing them in his first season

You can't plz all the ppl all of t time hey, n tbf i suppose most long term speedway fans are shall we say getting on in their years and back in the day the riders used t pretty much race on anything and saw many a meeting raced on a soaking wet track, even if the track was waterlogged out would come the bags of sawdust and away we go jobs a good un

Zager wasnt a number 1 last season when the league was a weaker league than it is this year, and he mainly only scored decent points round Belle Vue, was hit and miss away from home.

You beat me to it

Mind you no doubt we'll have Laguta Racing Fan along in a minute tho to tell us his w*#k piece Artem is just waiting for his phone to ring

I hope im wrong but i don't think there's any out and out number 1's who want to ride over here who ain't already here, that's why Birmingham ended up with Pawlicki and Milik to start with.

It's also hissing it down in Suffolk this morn, 10 miles outside of Ipi and it's been constant for the last couple of hrs.

They'll probably change Pawlicki for Schlein next to save a few quid.

Team spirit probably is a bit iffy when your got 3 or 4 moaning faced Aussie's in the team if ya count Tai as one

Change the record for f*#k sake

Starke has a reputation for having bang average equipment, and 9 time's outta 10 comes out on summit no faster than a lawnmower or sounding like a bag of nails.

He's been taking some of what Morris and Worrall took

It's probably coz Chapman has been thru to A-Z of excuses to cancel meetings and now can't come up with any new ones to use to call a meeting off

Are you Laguta Racing Fan in disguise or summit, makes me wonder with all the nonsense you keep shouting, Chapman only has himself to blame by thinking he's bigger than the sport and keep postponing meetings when it suits him, whether it's make believe rain, rider availablity or a broken pit gate
