He is an old school trooper....😇

Did Scott get asked anything? 😁

Very harsh.. He had an horrendous wrist injury just 24 hours before that made him miss the riders championship..😁

They could tie a track grader to the back of their bikes as they scrape the fence in the slop...

If only all speedway in the UK could be that good...

😁 It won't be the same as tonight.. Gate. And Go...

Great meeting Top riders on a great track,... 😎

Retain - Guests Replace - Riders who are missing with those Guests...😁

Solid performance from the Tigers... Been in even more points scoring positions than the score they have... Will walk the 2nd leg and the final...

No worries for Leicester then as the Aces will lose by 14 at least at Owlerton....

Baffling from Kurtz.... No grip one 1 and 2 down low...

Great racing again.... What a track...

As would Brady Kurtz.... Not seen a block pass yet but hopefully one coming up...😎

Wasn't close enough that time... The inside on 3 and 4 looks worth a visit when behind, rather than following the leader in the dirt .

Norick caught with his pants down then.. The inside off four definitely working..

Bomber Always box office ....😎

Wow... The Tigers ballsed another heat advantage up...

Sheffield should be well in front... They had had two races on a 5-1 and the last one a 4-2..

Typical nice guy Dan...

Probably 2000 or a few more? This is UK Speedway, so not too bad ..

And when a rider can get his two teams relegated and promoted at the same time..

Seven riders teams... 15 heats... Rising Stars.. Rinse and Repeat.. Plenty of options exist... Not enough riders? Then go six, or even five, rider teams in the top league.. Go for 8 rider squads in the 2nd tier? 3 riders to fit 2 places for development? Add in a fit for purpose RR facility and you have a decent base to start from.. The top tier should be the "seller" for the rest of the sport to live off the back of.. At the moment the sport im the UK really is just an opportunity for riders to earn money and promoters to feel good that they run something where some of the worlds best will rub shoulders with them... The winning of any of the team titles is almost irrelevant given the infrastructure that delivers them.. Getting that sorted should be Phil's No 1 priority as, if he can make the titles have some kudos and maybe some proper financial rewards, then growth could happen...

The decline set in well before those two.. What the sport has needed for a long, long, time is to be ran like any other team sport, (with integrity and credibility), yet each different leader and leadership team have steadfastly avoided doing it... The reason in my opinion being that change will impact individuals, so, it is better for all individuals to be happy with what takes place, rather than have some pain during the fundamental and radical change required.. Phil Morris may have all the answers and a terrific plan, however.. If it impacts anyone, even slightly negatively, he won't get to use it... There should be two leagues.. One "super" league with a rider distribution of the best talent that provides genuine relative equality. With the 8 teams with the best crowds running in it... And another league for the rest that has the same equality plan, but runs with rider development as being a large part of that team structure...

Some turn up week in, week out... Many more no longer do... They didn't send emails, they just stopped attending over time..... However, those in charge do know the reasons but cannot, or maybe just won't?, fix the issue.. Tomorrow sees a PO Semi Final in the "Flagship" tournament... Probably not a great idea to plan this meeting in the day before..?

Clearly one of the best ever, maybe even THE best .? But also head and shoulders above all the others.... Lambert probably the only one who could give him a run for his money? When you win a GP series well before the conclusion the gulf is massive . Maybe they need to make him have at least one less GP each year than the rest? 😁
