I think he will need to... A win for the Aces will cement their place in the play offs... Oh. Hang on a minute...

I bet there wont be too many "anticipating the start" in this one....

When Tai came back it got me to attend to watch him... And a few others I met up with who didint go regularly, and still dont... Didn't care who won, as it doesnt really matter does it? But it was great to watch genuine world class talent on a Speedway bike.. Similar to when Hancock came back and similar to watching young Robert Lambert.. Sit back, put your feet up, open up a cold one, and watch true talent... Not a bad way to spend an evening... If my lad hasnt got a game we will go to the final, again with a fair few lapsed/ex fans... Hopefully 2 GP stars there. Should be good..

Only two? He/She/They/Prefer to not identify, is half the forum...

Spot on... For those riding next year I would say Fricke, Holder and Nilsson would be the only ones that you could have a debate about... None of whom are HL's in Poland's top league. .. Kolodziej, Laguta and Sayfutdinov would be their natural replacements I would suggest, and would improve the competition... The like of Kubera is developing in the right direction but is still not of that level.. However, those given a Wild Card can 100% put up the strongest case to deserve one, and will keep the competition clearly the best in the world.... It's just great to see the UK having 20% of the regulars.... And when Tai Woffinden is your third best rider the National team are in very good health. ...

Cracking last race... Poland like... Nothing really riding on it yet riders going for it as if it was a GP final... Quality...

Thank goodness they didnt show the Wolves meeting... Sam Masters just had about four goes at getting around the bend...

Heat 10 a cracker... Similar to Monmore Green that one..

I think Glasgow brought him in during August till the last week of September. But he only did home meetings.. .

Batch....

Could go either way now after that 2-4...

First leg rendered the result a formality... But, more likely.. It is on TV... And it is on TV because the top league get their matches covered by a major TV company who cover sports.....

That new lad looks decent...

And "weakened the team" according to the averages...

Credibility? In UK Speedway? Is it credible for the top flight for a team to choose what league they race in and voluntarily demote themselves, yet continue to use top flight riders? ...

You will never challenge the rules as you may need to bend some yourself during the season...

There's also is something called a Mickey Mouse Bollox operating model which unfortunately renders all leagues pretty worthless in winning.. Therefore. Getting someone like Lambert to come over here should be something to sit back and enjoy.. Good to hear Chris Louis was someone who can see the bigger picture and his programme notes last week also gave you hope that some within the "higher echelons" know the potential of the sport if ran properly... Here's hoping for 15 heats of exciting racing...

If he rode for Poole they would still be underdogs.....

The website says no tickets available... Presume that isnt the case? Do they stop online tickets at some point prior to the start?

Has any of the official announcements mentioned how they have managed to get Lambert signed given "the rules"? It would be good to know maybe?

When you use averages, and given all the manipulation and variable ways they get delivered it is definitely not an exact science, (nor in my opinion fit for purpose, but that's for another time)... You then cannot complain when they get used to bring in riders for those injured.. You either have to use them or not and given the whole season sees guests being used on a horses for courses/ringer basis, then at least we have one rider now who will complete (hopefully), 3 meetings.. Just a shame he couldnt have done all four... Let's hope we see some great racing tonight from him..

The BSPA directors must have been "satisfied it is in the best interests of the sport" I presume... Bringing another one the best riders in the world into the Premiership must be seen as that...

You have absolutely no right to make a comment like that.. Nothing like him at all Anyway, whilst on... Hopefully the Aces can hold Ipswich enough tonight to sneak a very close victory on aggregate... The Witches might be clear favourites but I hope the plucky underdog Aces can somehow find a way to holding on to their commanding league from the first leg...

Growing up he was often heard to say.. "Ich liebe das Belle Vue Aces"....

No way... Robert grew up an Aces fan.. His dream being to ride for the Aces and pull on that famous Ace of Clubs body colour... He had an Aces matching pillow and duvet set, and posters of Jason Crump and Ricky Kling on the walls of his bedroom... And Aces PJ's too... Oh Yes. No worries about Robert's devotion to the Aces..
