  1. Riss has been incredibly disappointing this year. If it was up to me I'd find upgrades for him and Barker and keep the others, assuming Mountain still qualifies at number seven.
  2. Jorgensen has had a pretty good season and is the most watchable rider round Lynn, whether you agree with him returning or not it was pretty clear he was coming back. I actually think this team is only one or two changes away from being half decent, performances have been vastly improved once they eventually got to the current septet and changed the TM.
  3. No idea what you are banging on about as nobody has said that its shouldn't be Woffy and Bewley at BV in the SoN, the discussion is about Lambert's season, in which incidentally he averaged more than Bewley in Poland without 'easier' rides.
  4. If you are saying you'd prefer to watch speedway at Poole over Belle Vue I'd suggest you are very much in the minority.
  5. I thought he was 8th but the point remains. Been excellent in league racing but the GPs are an unforgiving place if you arent completely on the money. Yep and I cant see any other riders of that ilk returning to these shores any time soon.
  6. Absolutely Nicol did but I'm struggling to imagine Pailin and particularly Jorgensen not matching what their facilities scored.
  7. Absolutely not, if you are six or more behind at home then tough breast.
  8. Never mind keeping it close, Plymouth should be going to Poole tonight looking into win, they have enough track knowledge and familiarity in their ranks to cause an upset.
  9. I think they were trying too hard with the cameras to make sure they didn't miss anything, sometimes there was a race at the back as well as the front and the camera would switch to the rear only to miss something at the front. As others have said perhaps one camera or maybe two (one at each end) would be fine.
  10. Scoring 36 at the top of the table team on a track we rarely do well at with our number one not scoring is a pretty good effort really. Pleasing that the team didn't give up and fought to the end, all you can ask really.
  11. Excellent meeting once again from the NSS, what a track that is. Love it. And of course better when slicker!
  12. Even though there has been a marked improvement since Brady, Barker and Andersen have come in I very much doubt it.
  13. Morris back for Wolves and both teams at full strength. Anyone fussed?
  14. Some pretty horrible comments on here, maybe rather than castigating a young rider for wanting to look as professional and well turned out as he can folk should save their ire for the thieves. I had a non sign written van broken into at a hotel in Daventry a few years ago, it happens unfortunately. Fingers crossed his stuff is recovered.
  15. Definitely too strong, I know our top league is weaker than it's ever been but you've got riders in the Championship who definitely shouldn't be and must be earning big money which is reflected in the admission price which is too high in both leagues. British speedway needs a serious restructure or it will eventually disappear up it's own rear end, we need either two distinct divisions or one big one and a proper thriving third tier for training youngsters. The problem is most riders in British speedway are now accustomed to doubling up and the riches that it provides and would be resistant to change I suspect. Needs somebody stronger than Mr Godfrey to sort the whole mess out.
  16. If the rumoured Polush U24 league gets off the ground next year I'd have thought it would be better for Brennan's career to spend his weekends racing in that.
  17. This Glasgow team has had the guts ripped out of it with Oystercard crashing out for the season and Cook being nowhere near his usual standard for whatever reason. Add to that no new Pole or Sedgmen and they look a very ordinary team which is a great shame as they would have been in the thick of the Play Offs. Ulrich arguably the signing of the season before his smash. Can't see it being anything other than a two horse race for the title really but you never know.
  18. My usual moan, tac subs for the home team are a farce.
