Cookie said he was bringing his engines, looks like Bellego might be using one, great ride.

Integrable, eh Kelv.

Unsure how reliable it is but Scunthorpe appear to have some Friday evening dates set aside for October, never been myself but only ever hear good reports about the racing, might be worth a punt. Agree re Owlerton, used to love our Thursday night trips over Woodhead for meetings there, first it was the smell of the bakery as you approached the stadium, then as you say the Castrol aaahhhh would kick in, always a fast well prepared track.

Speedway is my main sporting interest but I do watch the odd Moto GP if I'm at a loose end, have no mechanical knowledge whatsoever but that doesn't hamper my enjoyment. I used to watch Superbikes when Foggy was on the scene and I absolutely loved those Sundays, probably more to do with buying into the character than anything else, he was brilliant for promoting the sport imo and raced like we all wished we could, his battles with the likes of Frankie Chili and Corser were enthralling. Once he retired I did keep tuning in but didn't last more than a couple of months, never watched it since.

Win or lose at least we are almost certain to see some great speedway. I'm feeling quite positive, unusual for me, a 10 or 12 point lead to take to Saddlebow Rd will keep the fire stoked for next Monday, we may have Craig back by then. As FF says, if all are on their game then we can do it, here's hoping.

Maybe not from where you're sitting but trust me it's grim for those of us who aren't interested in your personal arguments. Of course he can't name 12 riders, I challenged him on that when he posted it on Saturday night and he never came back, that was proof enough for me, I haven't felt the need to keep beating him with the same stick, each to their own I suppose.

Another thread given the wrecking ball treatment, keep it up fellas, you'll end up with the place to yourselves at this rate.

No you can't.

He'd probably get banned before the first ad break

Thanks for that, was unsure, so there's nobody but Batchelor, such a shame.

No idea who would or wouldn't be eligible but I'd much rather someone the like of Sam Masters as a guest, at least you know he would give his all on the track, Batchelor has pulled one stunt too many for me.

Well done Woffy, showed his class when it mattered, World Championship #3, virtually home and dry.

Nice ride from Wolbert, cracking first bend.

Ditto the last round, it's ridiculous, I'd rather watch 5 rounds on Polish tracks than put up with this garbage. Got to feel for all those fans, pi$$ wet through and probably not even being updated.

Going to be a long night...

Well said Matej Zagar.

Oh well, controversy it is then.. Wishing I'd not written that now, fingers crossed for both riders, good to see Cookie having a go though.

My sentiments exactly, slight leaning towards Woffinden as he's British but decent racing and some needle will set me up nicely for the boxing later.

Guy ropes & pegs will be essential for keeping the folding chairs in place then.

I know it's only folks having a chat about him but I will be happy when this thread has disappeared into obscurity, the fella is vermin and will probably be revelling in the fact that he's being discussed here. I know I know, by posting in the thread I'm keeping it prominent but if it discourages one or two from continuing then it's worth the effort.

Valid point but Piccadilly Gardens (as was) these days is mostly populated by spice users, they wouldn't even know their own names.

Good old you.

I'm sure you mustn't realise you're doing it but that's at least 3 times in the last couple of days that I've noticed you make unsolicited comments about Starman's health, yet you claim never to do so, have think, just by mentioning it you are bringing it into a public forum, whether you ridicule or pi$$take is irrelevant really. What's wrong with merely saying you don't get on and leaving it there?

Sod the H&S, just D on it's own will do for me, we're lucky that Freesports even exists and decided to put speedway on at all.

Of course you wouldn't, you'd probably just leave a little 'cryptic' reference here and there.
