Truly high level racing... The two best teams in world speedway...

Brady....

What you pay riders to be.... Edit. In Poland....

Brady in front... Yellow goes....

Didn't understand the decision at all... Clearly got hit by Holder...

Track needs a bit more grip on the outsode... Riding Mid track gets you wins...

Çaught his right leg under the bike...

That didn't look good...

Nobody in the world's top echelon of riders gets passed as much as Dan does... Ironically, no one seems to pass more than Dan... He just doesnt defend positions well...

Magic showing what he can do when he escapes the "white hot" scrutiny of riding for Oxford in the GB Premiership...

Great race from Kurtz. Not many do that to the World Champ... Dan, once again, getting passed underneath... Simply cannot ride the white line at speed...

Not a bad No6 is he?

Bye Bye Kubera.....

How did Doyle get away with that start?😀

Maybe the other one has turned up over here looking at his scores?..😁

There is too much of a disparity in HL strengths.. Within the 21 HL's there is simply to much of a gap... Cook was a decent No4 for the Aces and is now a No1... Tungate is (at best), a No3, (and only at certain tracks), yet rides at No1.... Ipswich have such a strong team because they have used the UK reduction brilliantly well, but also, more importantly, they have every rider in their team in precisely the correct position to match their capability in a league with top level world stars... Not many teams have ever had that to work with over the years, therefore, no surprise they are hammering teams, as "head to head" v their opponents, from one to seven, they have the better rider.. Seven teams of seven riders has meant too many second strings having to ride as HL's for the league to be competitive...

One team too many for me given the level of riders who wish to race over here... Two teams made up of KL, Oxford and Birmingham riders would both be competitive, and, even more so, if those two teams could get a couple of GP level riders each.. As it stands, teams are missing a No1 and a No5, instead they are being made up of No3's, and even Second strings, riding in the HL positions.... Even if they had 3 x No3's they would be more competitive... The league shouldn't be diluted though as that will just drive fans away..

Not according to quite a few Ipswich fans on here they don't... Time will tell....

He couldn't quite believe how crap it really was, so kept going back for a,quick peek... Until he finally decided that it is actually really crap... Still, as many of the Witches fans have said on here, they are fine with the hammerings every week given they haven't won much for years... And these hammerings each week will ensure their attendances stay really good because everyone follows a winning team... A win win for Ipswich...

Which just goes to show... You can fool some of the papal, some of the time... But you can't fool all of the papal, all of the time... (I'll get me coat)....

Is it on Sky?😀

They need to plan in 12 home meetings each.... And, two more for the play off finalists... In just over FIVE months.... No need I would suggest to arrange meetings when you know riders won't be there, given the amount of blank Mondays and Thursdays available....

So many "made up teams" could be avoided given many meetings are actually arranged when promoters actually know their riders are already booked to ride elsewhere on that particular date... Meaning those who arrange these meetings must have no belief in the credibility of their own product... Effectively, "any Speedway will do".... The sport can never move forward over here when such nonsense is allowed to pervade..

If those who run it don't take it seriously, (as is clearly shown by their fixture planning), then they cannot be surprised if fans don't....

You can add using the same riders regardless of what league you are in too... You could guest for some other team and prevent your own team from getting promoted..😁
