Hackett

As a neutral - Kemp is a pretty decent signing all things considered. Cook was always going to be a high risk signing and unfortunately for the Comets it has not worked out. Considering their options think Kemp is a decent shout. He isn't likely to scorte 10-15 pts every meeting but is a solid option.

Decent signing for the Aces and good to see Doyle back in British speedway.

From the video on socials Cairns went for the gap "Polish" style on the inside and touched Pijper's wheel so was rightly excluded but both looked untidy going into the corner. Referee made the correct decision and agree with awarding the race also.

Cardiff was more about the atmosphere around the City before the meeting and won’t be captured again. The opportunity to see riders from the SGP circuit in thew City and for my kids to get photos and merch etc ... Plus once Ian Jordan rinsed Eastbourne and forced it to close it was the easiest opportunity for my family to see Speedway. The novelty however started to wear off, the hotel prices were extortionate and logistically we changed our plans over the years as my children got older. Go Fri night and make a weekend of it. Then go early Sat AM and return on Sun and for the last Cardiff into Wales Sat AM and driveback after the meeting. Cardiff could never match the NSS for quality of the racing watching British Finals and SON live in Manchester was immense but Cardiff had its own appeal and the gathering of speedway fans all over the country in one place was always a highlight. The tickets were excellent value for money and no fear of a rain off , although on a couple of occasions the track was so poor you could imagine the riders considering not racing due to the state of the track. All in all it was a great occasion but it was like watchimg MK Dons in the final years - "Your grounds to big for you ...."

Would be no surprise if more Polish teams do the same or the PZM look to stop heatleaders riding elsewhere in Europe.

Only saw on socials the excellence of Pila's team-riding. If in doubt take teamate out.

Looked an awkward one. Lifted on the inside and drifted out and as he regained control coming into the corner his hand and handlebars then slides across gets hit by teamate who is laying bike down and catapults into track then air fence. Looks like a shoulder, collarbone and hand injury.

Exactly ; what is the ruling for U24s riders in Poland for next year if not in the main team - is it one other league ???

Definitely need more pyro !!!

Logistical nightmare for the fans .. Some fans may have bought tickets for only one event. Perhaps Mayfield have tempted fate by stating only 2 SGPs cancelled for rain in the last 10 years.

Tad Harsh !!! But yes AI will remove the need for creatives / designers in the future. As it has already done with journalists.

Exactly - My family (3adults and 1 child) have done British Finals and SON at the NSS. Unfortunately train fares , hotels and Sat date put a stop to the British Final. The SGP at Manchester add the FIM tickets to trains, hotel etc over £1000 even with advance bookings so stopped going unfortunately.

MJJ in heat 13 was superb thought he was going over the airfence at one stage.

Agreed - thought Anders would struggle considering his recent scores but he has done well to get through tonight - so fair play.

One in Manchester and one in Glasgow 🙂🫡

PErhaps they thought it needed tarmacing or perhaps a new flatroof for the burger van ??

Kvech had an off this week and was taken to Hospital awaiting news on the injury.

In January a number of promoters were stating they would need to have meetings early to determine what and how to move forward. Soes anybody know if there are any plans for this to be done or is it the usual "head in the shale" and see what happens in Nov/Dec ??. Certainly expect Poland to implement the no more than one other club rule and with a number of riders being injured in Denmark wonder if the PGE Ekstraliga even looks at making that more difficult in the future.

Sure it is merely coincidence that at Glasgow the selection of Bomber guarantees a few more fans to the meeting. Seems a little strange that last years British Final determines the picks. All the same wish Bomber well.

Saw the Laguta crash that was high speed. Wroclaw decimated with injuries. Stated on Twitter Kubera injury is a collarbone.

Tai is built differently. That crash was simply down to mechanical failure , defendin 2nd place easil and then engine goes exciting the turn. Tai will be back he has proved all wrong before and as long as he wishes to carry on he will do so. One thing we all know he is very strong willed and as discussed he wasn't at fault. Speedy recovery Tai.

At the worst SGP track in Prague , it is usually like racing on the M25. Always the chance of the track getting overwatered to liven the meeting up.

I thought the very same BUT there is only one meeting before the SGP on the 5th + 6th so that consideration is not viable.

If Thomsen stays fit he will get the whole series now. 4or5 replacing Lindgren and then remainder replacing Bewley.

Terrible news he was looking good in his meeting for Wroclaw and the first SGP. Get well soon Dan and a speedy recovery.
