Cold?.. I've been colder in March or April Fingers crossed this mild weather continues and the lions get an acceptable crowd for whats sadly a bit of a dead rubber

fear not,you can fill your car up in Scunny as well as watch 2 good teams going at it on a fabulous race track

The way Kennedy rode last time I guess the vice chairman He was outstanding

im all for giving the juniors chances,but i fear in the situation last night this would create a very one sided meeting rather than the very close ,nail biter at Newcastle last night guest last night surely added to the entertainment of the meeting?

But what is the alternative to Guests and RR in this situation?

3 ways to beat Poole 1;add dirt and flood track 2;Pray Havvy is the team manager 3;Pray Havvy is the team manager again

Scunny making a habit of caving in towards end of meetings, with riders we have it simply shouldn't happen

agreed but that was then and this is now,i was more interested to the difference between the two clubs and the reason of one seemingly running well and one not so well

Very sad to hear of what could be the end of Newcastle Speedway but.. Last Friday i visited a fabulous speedway club just south of Newcastle where the club seemed to be very vibrant,a really good crowd,brilliant racing,good presentation and a very strong team.The stadium looked really good and importantly supporters seem to be spending cash inside the stadium! The club seem to be brimming with sponsors and no talk at all of any closing or looking for investors,things looked really good at Redcar,and despite the result all of us headed back to Scunny thinking what a great night we had at Redcar[Hats off to the promotion and supporters ] how is it that Redcar`s nearest and dearest are in the position they are when the mighty Bears seem to be going great on and off the track? interesting that being so close to each other yet total different situations

how?

An outstanding race meeting, some of the best racing I've seen Probably a fair result in the end, MPT was outstanding

isnt the idea of any speedway meeting to make money? where the hell did this anti making money thing come from? that how life works!

a very bold statement considering we dont know the points limit,we dont know who is in the league and we havnt seen other teams a strange one to me that im sure a recall similar statements last year on the predictions thread but it didnt seem to work out that way

Congratulation to Swindon,best team and deserved winners over the season pleased for Rosco too,he cops some unfair flack but is a proper speedway man and is developing a handy knack of building teams good to see a fine crowd also

this year even if you had started play offs in september there would still have been a alot of rain offs for example here in North Lincs,since 1 june 370mm of rain, with september rain fall over 100mm Scunthorpe for example had more mid summer rain offs this year than the 3 previos season added together,its just been a wet year this one Fishing has been shyte too!!

to be fair with the money involved in development these days far out weighs anything a promotor can do if 5000 folk turned up you still wont match the cash available from developers

yet folk have moan about lack of grading this season proves a point,let a track develop its self,seen way to many tractors this year round and about,last time we were at Owlerton was a classic example,lovely racing line developing,out come the tractor for a few laps and kills it dead!! and massive well done to the Bears yesterday for coming back and grabbing a point Good luck in the playoffs.will pop up and have a look!

fecking massive away win coming here

my point being that had the rain been `TORRENTIAL`` as described,it wouldnt have been as dry as it was in in that heat 8 video, which was i guess 15 to 20 mins after the described rain,sure it rained,but not as bad as described id say well done to the ref on the night for getting on with it,as what i saw,,not a single rider from either team complained,so well done them

when you watch that video it makes you wonder where the torrential thunder storm described in the match report was!! or maybe the clown writing it didnt know meeting was being filmed.....

the rain made no differnce to the meeting or the score, Shame John Campbell acted the clown and got the ref to inspect the track,what a complete fool he made himself look,even the visiting riders seemed shocked at his actions Josh Pickering is a joy to watch around Scunny,love that kids style

indeed, but on what grounds?,the Bates family own both clubs and are free to do what they wish to their teams as long as in withinn the rules of team building,i fail to see what the MC can actually do about it wether team changes are right or wrong,remains to be seen,but changes are the Bates family`s call,if that what they think is in the best interest of the two clubs they own[at considerable personnal cost] then that is their business,not the MC`s and for the record,If i was a Lions fan id be quite happy!!

what exactly has the management committe got to do with that? can the actually stop the move when no actual rules have been broken?

Never mind spreading it around the whole team,its just plain wrong they dont sell it to the other team mid meeting,that simply greedy of the Glasgow riders Paulco hope you had a safe drunken trip home!
