I think there's a lot more to it than that. The bikes are very different and much harder to ride in imperfect conditions, and promotions seem to be reluctant to run in front of rain affected crowds or pay expenses for rider's travel only for the meeting to be off anyway. Don't get me wrong, Brtish speedway has got itself in this hole. But if you are going to have play offs then the season needs organising much better than it has been recently.

The Australian Scott Smith

Petri Kokko?

Apologies, that's poor etiquette from me to post another one before the current one has been guessed. Yep mines Norwich.

Agree, I don't think this thread is in particularly good taste personally.

I went to Mildenhall regularly in 2006, 07 and 08 when they were in the second division, it was a great track at that level.

I can remember when Lynn closed for one season in 1996, we had grand plans to go to either the EoES or the Foxhole most weeks.....ended up doing both just once plus the Overseas Final at Coventry. It's not the same as your own club and the reality is most P'boro fans will drift away if they don't run next year.

That wins the internet today

Oh dear! That's a tricky one. Can't even really see where it is.

Frank Smart and Fryer?

Riders signed to cover for those whose seasons have been ended by injury aren't ringers.

Sunderland?

Bob Garrad.

I think there's an awful lot of those around at the moment

Immense from Bewley. Looks like last night's episode got into Zmarzlik's head.

Every team wore them in 1998, pretty sure they were a Simon Wigg innovation. They began as stretchy oversuits but as the season went on riders had their own kevlars made. Lynn then took it a step further in 2000 with the silver 'machine' bike covers.

Yep it's Camarthen

Exeter.

Brian Andersen.

It's a matter of opinion of course but to me using your squad is preferable to borrowing riders from other clubs, although I appreciate that in this instance the final is likely to be very one sided.

'It's not there now, the top's all flat, and beneath it is the bloke in the bowler hat. And that's that!'

I'd prefer nobody was injured, guests on both sides takes the shine off the tie. This is one of the issues with Play Offs unfortunately.

Yes!
