  1. Up to and including the 20th of each month effective from the 1st of the following month.
  2. Fastest time of the season at Poole on Wednesday! Scored 8+2 for Coventry.
  3. So was I Dick, you asserted that Rye House's large win v Plymouth may be a factor - it won't. It's worth the same 3 match points as a 46-44 win. The qualifying runner-up will be decided by the best average of match points per meeting raced. It's all explained on www.speedwaygb.co
  4. Qualification is based on match points, not race points.
  5. The 5/4/4 groups add an extra twist as being second in the group may well not be enough for qualification if one of the other groups becomes a two-horse race.
  6. The Bees will be using rider - replacement for Stuart Robson at No 2.
  7. Danny King will be otherwise engaged on Saturday! Leicester v Coventry
  8. We go into every meeting intending to win I'm sure you noted that Wolverhampton had a guest on stand-by in case Tobiasz Musielak was unfit for today.
  9. I understand your thoughts, but we have to be open to the possibility of losing a rider to injury early in the meeting.
  10. Elite League to Premier League - x 1.4 Premier League to Elite League - x 0.6
  11. Which is exactly what I spent pretty much all of yesterday doing.....
  12. COVENTRY’S home leg of the National League Grand Final against Cradley on Friday will now take place AT LEICESTER (7.30pm). The club have been informed that Brandon Stadium is no longer available as the staging venue for this meeting due to preparations for Saturday’s Stock Car event. An alternative venue has therefore been sourced as it was felt this was a far more preferable option than to simply concede the tie. Coventry Speedway wish to thank Leicester promoter David Hemsley and his staff for their co-operation in allowing the use of the Jordan Road Surfacing Stadium for this important meeting, as well as the Cradley management for their agreement to the change. The City Gearboxes Storm trail the Heathens by just ten points going into the second leg of their National League title-deciding clash. We acknowledge the circumstances are far from ideal but we hope as many supporters as possible will be able to make the trip to Leicester to back the Storm on Friday. Admission: Adults £12, Children Free. Programme: £2.
  13. COVENTRY Storm face the biggest match of their season on Monday when they take on powerhouse Cradley in the first leg of the National League Grand Final at Brandon (7.30pm). The meeting has been brought forward by seven days due to the re-arrangement of the senior team’s Final in the Elite League, so the City Gearboxes Storm are the first to go into action in the vital closing stages of the season. And having been the only team throughout 2014 to get the better of the Heathens, that coming in a dramatic Brandon clash on Easter Monday, they are looking for some kind of a lead to take to Monmore for the second leg next Tuesday. Whilst the Storm were overcoming Kent in a competitive semi-final, Cradley romped to a 41-point home win over Mildenhall and then finished the job by winning at West Row last weekend. The Heathens track a team with potential race-winners in every department, several of whom could be No.1s at other clubs – and they include Steve Worrall and Paul Starke, whose respective Premier League clubs have qualified for the Grand Final at that level. But the Storm have also gained in strength from their semi-final line-up with Stefan Nielsen expected back from a near two-month injury absence, although a planned try-out at Kent last Friday was ruled out due to the weather. Club asset Joe Jacobs again steps in at No.1 in place of injured British Under-19 Champion Oliver Greenwood whilst James Sarjeant leads the team fresh from his 18-point maximum in the semi-final and a run of crucial scores for the senior team in their own title charge. Storm boss Laurence Rogers said: “It’s going to be a special tie. Cradley are on fire as we know, and I’m sure it’s going to be entertaining to say the least. “If we can get everyone going, we can do it. It’s a shame Ollie is out for the rest of the season as his knee damage is worse than we thought, but having JJ in should stand us in good stead. “We just need a couple of the boys to get going, hopefully Sarj can continue the form he’s been in and I’m sure Dan (Greenwood) would love to go back to Cradley and take the title!” Admission on Monday is £12 for all adults, with children free of charge as usual. CITY GEARBOXES STORM (from): Dan Greenwood, Joe Jacobs, Martin Knuckey, Stefan Nielsen, Luke Priest, James Sarjeant, Ryan Terry-Daley CRADLEY (from): Max Clegg, Nathan Greaves, Tom Perry, Danny Phillips, Paul Starke, Matt Williamson, Steve Worrall.
  14. COVENTRY Storm will race the first leg of the National League Grand Final against Cradley at Brandon THIS MONDAY (Oct 13). The meeting has been brought forward by seven days because the senior team will be racing in the away leg of the Elite League Grand Final on October 20. The City Gearboxes Storm will take on the Heathens in the first leg this Monday (7.30pm start), with the return at Monmore Green as initially scheduled a week on Tuesday, October 21. Admission on Monday will be £12 for all adults children free.
  15. The 125 meeting was a cracker - 13 heats in an hour, no false starts or falls. Kyle Bickley retained his title, all twelve riders tried their socks off but a special mention for Harry McGurk who fought from last to second in the final and wasn't too far away from Kyle at the finish.
  16. The 125 race card is part of the meeting programme Admission prices and programme cost are unchanged Weather is dry and cloudy and cooler than yesterday! Gates open 2pm, 125s at 2.30pm, PL at 5pm Panthers 1970 team reunion Face painting, Men in Black and Farewell to Ryan Sullivan during the afternoon.
  17. Gates open 2pm, 125 Championship starts at 2,.30pm, PL match at 5pm
  18. Ryan is injured, Lasse rides in the World Under 21 championship.
