  1. Yes, think the rest of the stadium is terracing from the pictures I've seen (never been in person).
  2. The 50zl tickets are in the main grandstand (start/finish line), that's what we have gone for. Only roughly £10 each
  3. I'll be covering on the Stars Updates Twitter account so feel free to use the updates from there Sue
  4. That's very possible. The comment was more based on watching Lambert possibly winning the title. Having been there to see his NL debut, EL debut & SGP debut (at reserve) this would complete an amazing few years.
  5. There are of the student rooms at Cardiff Uni that should be available. Only £30 this year. Know people who used them and said they were great value.
  6. Only realised today that Pieszczek was a former Gdansk rider and local lad. Surely starts as the favourite but pressure can do funny things, especially to younger riders. Actually looking forward to this more than the Torun GP.
  7. Premier Inn Cardiff City Centre was £255 for Friday & Saturday. Flexible rate so can cancel up to 1pm on the day.
  8. Ordered my tickets last night. Really looking forward to this. Hoping Robert can do the business or at least seal a place on the rostrum. Looks like a fair few Stars fans are making the trip as well.
  9. Will be my first time in Torun this year. Any tips about great bars, restaurants etc gratefully received:-)
  10. I'd take that team (Not done any sums to see if it fits though)
  11. What are the options for obtaining a refund if you can't make the re-staging? Not inclined to post them to the Leicester speedway office as I don't fancy a rubber cheque in exchange. Do I take it up with the BSPA instead?
  12. Obviously going to be one of those nights. Right in town centre and no rain at all
  13. BBC forecast now saying no rain until 10:00PM - http://www.bbc.co.uk/weather/2645456?day=0 Has improved from earlier when it was saying rain from 5PM. Certainly no rain since earlier this morning so shouldn't be any issues. Just need the ref to keep things moving and no major delays.
  14. I know what you're saying but personally, would rather lose within the rules than bend them (and probably still lose). We obviously agreed to the fixture knowing that Niels would be missing. The promotion (and fans) have to live with the consequences of that.
  15. I'm going to dig a hole in the first bend. That's what teams do nowadays when they want a meeting off isn't it?
  16. We couldn't when went to Belle Vue. Think it's a 6pt PL rider. Missing Niels, Mads & Robert and we used Kenneth Hansen, Jacob Thorssell & R/R
  17. Realistically I can't see any hope of the playoffs but at least this burst of life keeps the season alive in some shape. Can't see us picking up anymore away wins apart from maybe the re-staging with Leicester. Also we don't know how many meetings Niels will be missing. Any away match without him pretty much means no chance of any points.
  18. Don't think Jake is our asset anymore. Sure we sold him to Sheffield when he signed for them in the PL.
  19. Beautiful evening for it. Hoping Josh, Tom and Ryan can claim some good scalps tonight. Think the Young Stars all round strength should come through but if Cradley do keep it close to the end, it could be painful. Good luck to Lewis on his full debut.
  20. Team change for the Young Stars with Lewis Whitmore coming in to replace Layne Cupitt. Layne is heading to Cradley after Wednesday's meeting. Have to say I'm pleased with the change. Had high hopes for Layne this season after a winter in Australia but he hasn't really progressed as I and I'm sure he would have liked. Maybe the move away from Lynn will do him good as he has more experience at Wolverhampton. Lewis did well in tricky conditions when he guested for Buxton. He was well on the pace with far more experienced riders. Great prospect, just what the NL should be all about.
  21. I actually agree with your whole post but my problem is that I don't think rules should be applied on a team by team basis. They should be applied equally and consistently to all teams. If he could ride for Buxton then he should be able to ride for Birmingham. I don't like the idea of it because you are right, they are just taking the mickey. But if it's within the rules.....
  22. Any details for this meeting. Saw MK won 19-17 but haven't seen any heat details. Can anyone help?
  23. Think Halsey is out of the country on a pre-arranged holiday. This fixture was re-arranged at late notice so wasn't in the original fixture list. Really looking forward to it. I'm sure it will be a much tougher test than Stoke provided.
