Thank you for beating me to it…..but he’ll still keep posting crap. Has done for years

Better than a couple of over the hill Russians

Erm, maybe the man who owns both the SGP rights and Ipswich?

I think it’s great news. Although I know I’m likely to be on my own on this, I prefer a track where riders come within centimetres of each other when trying to pass, rather than there being metres which can happen at BV. And hopefully Ipswich will provide a GP at prices comparable to European tracks and maybe even have similar facilities. The grandly named “National Speedway Stadium” was only called that as a sop to Manchester City Council when they were being asked to part with many millions of council tax payers money, but it has never lived up to its name. In my opinion.

At a guess, that’s not a guess?

Got that wrong. The soap dodgers have nae chance

For the Cami haters, this looks like a foregone conclusion…..Scunny move on to see if they can stop the Poole juggernaut. And maybe it is, depending on which Harris turns up. And Hagon. Is it Ziscke that’s guesting? That will help but Glasgow’s reserves will still take a hammering. For Scunny, you just know that the best part of half of the points they need will be provided by one rider so surely the other 6 can get 20 or so? Or maybe the other 5 if Lambert’s problems persist. And Mountain should get 10 of them. it’s Scunthorpe’s to lose - and I doubt they will

No such rule

You can’t. But maybe it’s his sister? She couldn’t score any less. The Tigers need the Bomber of 2025 not the 2026 version who’s lost nearly two points off his average. One season too many for him or maybe got another team to go to in 2027? Maybe there’s a Dan T/Harris swap in the offing?

Beware the cunning of the quiet hero, Gavin Parr……last year was Redcar 46 Poole 44 followed by a draw at Wimborne Road giving the Bears the aggregate win. And they’re already two better than that this year…….

Are Cooper Rushen’s parents “mega rich”?

I don’t think ever Chairman. He was vice-chairman for a while but stepped down in 2011 (?) Too far back to have any relevance nowadays.

Because Poole are successful? It’s hardly the Ford family’s responsibility to save British speedway. That’s down to the management board so you should be asking what they’re doing about it. Leadership and development comes from the top but how much do we see?

Why should it be Poole’s job to advertise the sport? And does anyone really think that changing Poole’s track would have any impact on the sport as a whole? It’s my view that, without Poole, the sport would be in an even worse position as they provide a goal for others to reach. And look at the delight when someone beats them. Every team can build to the same limit. But some give up before they’ve even started - or take chances on riders that rarely work. Before the “winter of discontent” (2010/11?) kicked off, Allen Trump said that when looking at team building for Coventry, one of his first thoughts was “what are Poole doing?” That hasn’t changed.

Quite a bit to unpack here: do you think the money that BSN pays tracks makes a material difference? In the best Sky years it was just over £100k a club but now? Maybe £8k. Boycott away but it won’t change anything. Secondky, clubs that take the mic? In what way? Poole supply a style of entertainment for their fans that seems to work. And, regardless of what people might like to say, winning is entertainment. Demolishing the opposition even more so. The co-promoters make a living from speedway - are they unique in UK? - so they’re also happy. Finally, what’s Morris got to do with it? He is CEO of the Premiership, something that should be clear to all. Whether that means the Championship don’t want him or the other way round, I don’t know.
