  1. 100% agree, but his third place would have put the meeting out of Glasgow's reach. An experienced rider would have known that and settled for third. His fall kept the Tigers in the match, but as you say, you can't knock a rider for having a go.
  2. Basically, he was on for a safe third when he seemed to get a tad close to the rider in front of him. It unsettled him, and down he went.
  3. Back in the day, Howarth would have been a marked man. Someone would have put him through, and rightly so. Someone like Martin Goodwin was a hard rider, but fair and like other hard riders back then, could give it, but also take it. Howarth must think he's a bit of a hardman. After watching his performance with Pickering, I would suggest otherwise 😂
  4. Unfortunately his inexperience showed. He has a good third place. No doubt he will learn from that, and not let it happen again.
  5. I do agree with you, but Workington fans were saying Perry was the answer to their reserve problems. He had 4 rides yesterday at Workington and had four lasts!. He's been let go by both Poole and Glasgow. It just shows the standard at the lower end of some of the teams. As for Hagon. I'm sure Glasgow signed him on the back of his two u21 Championship wins. (which made sense) Riding down at reserve after being No2 at Berwick last year, also looked like a good move by Glasgow. Besides last night's meeting at Berwick for Berwick!, his actual best score for the Tigers has been 5+1!!
  6. Thank you. I'm surprised riders turned it down. They are always saying they are skint !!
  7. Why did Edinburgh go with R/R last night, was there no one available or was it to save money?
  8. I know it's the system and all the riders know it's on the final, and it's 2026, not 1976, but I wonder what the list of speedway world champions would have looked like under this system? For those older enough to remember, would you agree that Dave Jessup, for one, would have been a world champion? Billy Sanders maybe. Of course, the cream rises to the top, and the likes of Mauger, Olsen, Fundin, Penhall, etc. would have still gone on to be world champions, but off the top of my head, Kenny Carter is another who, imo, would have won it at least once. As proven last night, score eight points, and you're in with a shout of winning. Yes, it's over ten rounds, not one, but you get my drift.
  9. So, from yesterday's meeting till today, did we have a lot of overnight rain? If not, why is it like a waterlogged ploughed field tonight?
  10. Bewley has had three fantastic races. Means diddly squat under this pathetic scoring system. Someone could make the final on a lot less than what Dan has already. Still, it's important for the sport to show itself for what it is 🤣🤣
  11. Tatum, goodness gracious me, By Golly........... I suggest he tries his hand at " its knock out," much better suited for his style of commentary.
  12. How can it be out of sync like that? It beggars belief.
  13. I think you mean in the 2000s. We were the World Champions, plus silver and bronze medallists from the 70's right the way through to the late 80s. That was when it was 5-man teams. We have under the speedway of nations, two golds and two silvers. Fantastic achievements, but all in name, a pair's event. When it comes to the 5 man team event, we've not yet won. As for England's record in the pairs in the past. It's a fantastic record. 70s through to the late 80s, 7 Golds, 5 Silver and 2 Bronze. 👍
