  1. Sounds like you have an itch to prove people wrong, I know what that is a trait of and it all matches up now, which is why people probably just ignore you. The reason I said what I did is because you can’t go on a single thread on this whole forum without you chirping up and doing the exact thing I mentioned. Or quite often it’s telling everyone what team changes the team manager should have made during a meeting. The mute button is good advice Captain Hindsight.
  2. Not a bad effort from 3 of the riders, didn’t expect Trigger or Morley to score any. But a poor night from our No.5 cost us the bonus point, which would have been a decent result with the team we had out. Plymouth had 6 riders scoring good points throughout the night which was the difference. Good racing tonight, the widened track seems to be doing the trick
  3. Bore off quoting everyone with stats, it’s getting massively boring. Do you even watch speedway or just follow results?
  4. Antti can be a real let down away from home at times, he was great in the latter stages last night. But was always going to be a waste of a r/r ride tonight. As Alfie Bowtell says you have to attack this track and he doesn’t on some tracks for whatever reason.
  5. Said on commentary all night that he wouldn’t be getting any tractors out. Then decided otherwise at the interval. Godfrey was quite funny on the commentary tbf, as he was in the BSN booth the other week
  6. Harrison wasn’t unbeaten? Antti and Batch got a 5-1 over him in heat 9 too, wouldn’t have made any difference tbh.
  7. Robbed the bonus point in the end! Well done Antti and Batch, both gave it a good go all night when behind
  8. Blown the 26 point aggregate lead after 8 heats, what a disaster!
  9. Not a good start, is the track always this bumpy?, geez! 🫣
  10. Of course, follow all his meetings over there. Has a nice style and consistency, could well become a top rider in this league
  11. Fraser has been fab again 🫡 seems be on whole different level after the enforced break
  12. It was just what Zach Cook mentioned in the meeting report article, not that it matters much to anyone now!
  13. Seems Batchelor is still an easy target for a joke then, when he’s coming off paid 17 at the weekend and scored 13 away at Poole last year it’s a rather silly comment!
  14. Something about it being slick, gate and go, tyres wearing out, losing the coin toss. All the excuses were coming out. https://www.poole-speedway.com/news/view/20250712-reaction-disastrous-start-left-the-pirates-trailing-the-comets Anyone who was there or streamed it saw exciting racing, what caught Poole out was not knowing what lines to ride. Vinnie, Tate, Fraser, Antti all made great overtakes that night and some in multiple races. On a side note it was mentioned that 300 purchases were made for the live stream that night. Seems to be a success so far.
  15. Noticed that we have been deducted 2 points for a breach of SCB rules, so back to zero points.
  16. We have a new active company on companies house https://find-and-update.company-information.service.gov.uk/company/16571367
  17. There’s a positive update in the speedway star about the situation, including an interview with Steve Lawson. It’s free to read in the digital version online https://reader.exacteditions.com/issues/129454/spread/2 Lawson was keen to put some of the rumours to bed and set fans' minds at ease, believing that the matter would be resolved within a few days and racing will be able to resume imminently. He said: "I had a quick look on the Forum and people were saying 'they've run out of money', this, that and the other, but I can state that it's not financial. "It's a clerical error at our end, and speaking to Andrew (Bain) it's pulled the rug from under his feet. But it will be resolved, hopefully within the next four days, that's what we're planning. "We got the message from the BSPL on Friday and there was no time to get things changed round. Lawson added: "It's unfortunate that we had to let Berwick down, and Oxford on Wednesday and Redcar on Friday, that's what has upset Andrew, that we're letting people down. "I've no doubt it will get sorted, it's just the way it's happened and the timing of it is really awkward. But we want to put people's minds at ease and say it isn't financial, it is nothing to do with that."
  18. I would advocate that, but the problem is alot of fans are fickle and would see a weakened team as one with no chance of winning, and wouldn't bother going. Which I think would be less of a case with Polish fans.
  19. Tate and Jacob Hook were out promoting the club today with their bikes with a stall at Ullswater country fair in Patterdale. Giving out free tickets and information. Those riders more than do their bit for the club so don’t get your comments there.
  20. Fraser hasn’t even had a ride for Tarnow in 2 meetings this weekend. Down to miss Berwick away and the next home meeting against Berwick if he continues at No.8 for them. Saw Bastian Borke was down practising at Northside today, replacement incoming?
  21. Wrong, it’s hardly the promotions fault that he was then signed to ride for Tarnow in mid April, 6 months after he signed his Comets contract. You can’t blame Fraser either as he is only wanting to better himself. Speedway may be a team sport but you have to look after number 1 imo. When signed by the Comets it was only anticipated that he’d be riding in Poland in the U24 league on Tuesdays for Motor Lublin.
  22. He’s down to be riding for them next Saturday 28th too, so we will need another guest for Berwick away
  23. 100% what people in the queue were saying. Missed earnings for the club
