  1. Job done and straight through to the Final. 4th rider is going to be our achilles heel but an excellent night. Pity that the track was pretty poor as a spectacle. #jobdone
  2. Haven't seen any social media promoting the British Final tickets. However checked Belle Vue site and tickets are now available ,although most of Grandstand C already gone.
  3. I am just grateful that Speedway has a magazine. Yes ; the content is PR releases in the main but occasionally a couple of decent articles / features appear. The Briggo one was a recent one of interest gave an insight into the rider / person + character. Hopefully it will continue but having worked 15 years in media + advertising it will have a dwindling demographic and audience.
  4. so the SCB were correct he does have the runs.
  5. Hence why the majority are giving it a miss
  6. The issue is likely to be with the the situation the club finds itself currently in with promoter, sponsor and a lack of transparency or clarity on what exactly is going ; will the fans care any next season.
  7. Absolutely farcical !! A 7day ban when the Stars have no meetings - At least he should be safe for the "El Brassico" in July
  8. If anymore teams drop out of the League - We will be able to call it the Premiership Pair.
  9. Pretty decent meeting tonight. Tarasenko was good value for his 1st meeting at the Showground had plenty of speed when he hit the front. Excellent heat 12 and a great effort from Jenkins to keep the Aces at bay but to no avail. The Aces were just solid from 1-7 with Mulford doing his part as well despite poorer returns from Wright and Kurtz they still deservedly take the points. For the Panthers at least they have two "El Brassico" vs Stars in July
  10. Pretty pathetic away performance from the Stars. Decent effort from Morris but 5pts between Harris and Klindt the other two heat leaders shows how dominant Wolves are at Monmore Green. As for Laguta there are no away meetings until mid July - Leicester + Peterborough. So guess more a case of whether further financial cost-cutting has taken place by Chapman.
  11. Probably cheaper though - so all good. #ElBrassico
  12. Totally agree. I would say that with Zmarzlik and even with illness Lindgren has been the most consistent of riders at SGP level. In terms of the SGP it is becoming more and more repetitive but that is mainly down to track prep. All the tracks have been so slick. Prague, Teterow and Gorican tend to be pretty mundane meetings at the best of times. As for Gorzow it was unlikely to be any other result with the form of the riders and Zmarzlik riding the track since a kid. Apart from Artem and Emil this is pretty much the best of the riders in the world. Unfortunately Zmarzlik is not only only quick he is just so consistent - Like watching Rickardson again Final - Final - Final . Let's see what Mallila brings it is Bewley's home track so perhaps that will work in his favour. Although I imagine SGP will strip it down to like riding on the M25 again ............... oh and checking last year Zmarzlik won the Swedish SGP.
  13. My fear with Basso over Riss is that the Panther has not exactly excelled at Foxhall this season but Riss seems to be struggling at the moment. He stated that it wasn't his illness / virus but his bike, which certainly did not offer much on Monday at Kings Lynn.
  14. Agreed think these are both decent bets. On Rider Match Ups on Bet365 have Lawson +0 vs Ellis +0 - Lawson is 11/10
  15. Must be a ploy to get 6or7 rides for Andersen
  16. Pretty decent return from Batchelor all things considered. Is he riding in Sweden or Poland ???
  17. Will there be a league to be promoted to ??? Can imagine that there will have to be a serious look at the Premiership and Championship next season merging possibly into a North+South. With a number of clubs in limbo P'boro, Wolverhampton, Edinburgh, Birmingham think some serious considerations have to be made for the sport moving forward,
  18. Although he will be at reserve for this meeting. If he can't score a point a ride questions should be asked , although I can't see Panthers doing to many changes.
  19. Looking at Speedway Updates the Panthers lost to the Witches 57-33 in the KoC and top scorer was Ben Cook 5+3 (6) at reserve . Probably worth seeing how Tarasenko goes at Foxhall especially against Doyle and Sayfutdinov but can't see him getting too much support. Can see the Witches racking up 50+
  20. Paul Hurry is usually Scott's mechanic. He may have to buy the coffees on the way home.
