  1. Trouble is if you let the dirt go wide too early in the meeting you end up with one line right round the boards later on in the meeting which isn't good for the racing. Grading is a nuisance but sometimes it's required to keep the track good for 15 heats.
  2. Where? The Play Offs are long gone, it's about riding into some form for the cup final IMO.
  3. Add to that Brennan has scored major points in World U21 events this year and is riding regularly in Poland albeit the third tier. His career is only going one way at the moment, exciting to see how far that will be.
  4. Should be remembered that Brennan missed a season through a broken leg, add that to the year that everyone missed through Covid and he's not doing too badly for his age. He has improved greatly over the last 12-18 months and I think he can be much better than he is now, whether that is to the level that Lambert and Bewley find themselves remains to be seen but he certainly has something about him. Also worth chucking in the Jason Doyle example of a late developer too.
  5. That very phrase went through my mind yesterday!
  6. These kind of dodgy call offs won't stop while promoters can carry on making their own decisions as they see fit without some kind of adjudication from the governing body.
  7. Not according to the Met Office......all rain for today in Lynn has disappeared going by their app.
  8. I expect there will be plenty of pleasant nights in Sept but its another school summer holiday week wasted. Back in our second division days under Jonathan we rode every Wednesday through the summer with themed meetings and the place was awash with kids. Should still be like that now.
  9. You are right and it was called off far too early for that to be the genuine reason, but the forecast was quite different last night and especially this morning.
  10. I can't imagine that would make too much difference seeing as the Play Offs are gone anyway. Just think he doesn't want to lose money and bar sales, it's the sorry state speedway has got itself into nowadays. On another note can you still pay on the day for the South Stand at Belle Vue? We are up for the weekend and I fancy coming on Monday.
  11. I suspect they could have whethered either the fact it's on telly OR a dodgy forecast, but both together would have meant one man and his dog I'd imagine.
  12. Well done Glasgow, proper character shown tonight. And like Ashfield, Redcar is a proper racetrack.
