Sheffield Vs Scunthorpe Lc 7/4/16
spin king replied to Tigerish's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
I don't know, at the press and practice day Simon Stead did say that maybe they should get a bit more dirt on the track, and Eric was stood at the side of him at the time. -
Edinburgh Vs Berwick Fri 8th
spin king replied to allthegearbutnaeidea's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Well if I surprise by the Peterborough result this one has really sent the shock waves, I don't think that anyone would have seen it. I think since losing Craig Cook and Justin Sedgmen, I think that Edinburgh have to go through re build and we could see them slip up on more than one occasion, wil be hard for them to take after last few years success that they have had. -
Peterborough V Sheffield Plc Friday 8th April

Definitely did not see that result coming, but very pleasantly surprised and very happy. that was a very good Peterborough side we beat tonight, and hopefully if we can steer clear of injuries we can move upwards and onwards. -
Scunthorpe Scorpions 2016?
spin king replied to Paul Johnson's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Lucifer Sam needs watch his back here as it looks like you are after his job. Josh Auty and not winning because of the engine set ups, would that be the same Josh Auty came to Sheffield 2 weeks earlier and score a four ride paid maximum. Wilkinson got a good second of Josh Bates in heat 14, Josh Bates was excluded from heat 14, after falling coming out of the 2nd bend on the opening lap, even I could beat Josh Bates under those circumstances. -
Had a look through the original draft riders who start the season of 2014 just wondering how they had progressed and where they are now. Belle Vue Stefan Nielsen; Still a draft rider, and Premier League Ben Reade; Retired. Birmingham Simon Lambert; Riding in the Premier League turning down the opportunity to ride as a draft rider. Paul Starke; Still a draft ride. and Premier League Coventry Jason Garrity; Now riding in the main body of the Coventry team. James Sarjeant; Still a draft rider, and Premier League Eastbourne Lewis Blackbird; Retired. Dan Halsey; Riding National League. Kings Lynn; Lewis Kerr; Still a draft rider, and Premier League Lewis Rose; Still a draft rider, and Premier League Lakeside Adam Ellis; Still a draft rider. Ben Morley; Riding Premier League and National League Leicester Tom Perry; Riding Premier and National League. Max Clegg; Still a draft rider. Riding Premier and National League. Poole Kyle Newman; Still a draft rider. Riding Premier League Lee Smart; Riding National League. Swindon Steve Worrall; Still a draft rider, and Premier League Darryl Ritchings; Riding Premier and National League. Wolverhampton Ashley Morris; Riding National League. Joe Jacobs; Still a draft rider. From 20 riders 1 rider has made into main body of an Elite League. 10 riders still form part of the draft. 6 riders are riding in lower leagues 2 riders have retired Would this be counted as progress?

Is anyone really shocked that Leicester lost tonight or any other night. Their number 1 is a rider who has shown potential but best is only 3rd heatleader. The other heatleaders are nothing more than average 2nd strings in the Elite League. The 2nd strings are a young Pole who is still finding his feet, and one of the most inconsistent rider in not only the Elite League but the Premier League as well. The reserves are their only saving grace, one of which I can see taking over the number 1 role the same rider is 15th in the Premier League averages. Whoever put the Leicester team together must have been delusional to think that the team would have be occasionally competitive in the Elite League, the team are light years away from anything like that. The team at Leicester needs major surgery, and it needs it sooner rather than later. But you have to question whether or not Leicester should be riding in the Elite League, the current Promotion insist on running on a Saturday night and it has been proven that tracks that run on a Saturday struggle to attract the standard of rider for the Elite League, Eastbourne are classic example of that. The worrying thing is if team continues to keep losing especially at home then how long will the fans still come andd give their hard earned cash to see a losing side.

Ipswich Vs Sheffield Saturday April 2nd 7.30pm
spin king replied to ZODIAK's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Surprised that Ipswich have not gone with a Guest for Kerr, I think that it will level the teams out. It could come down to the reserves from both teams, certainly think if my Tigers ride to their own capabilities we can get some sort of result from this meeting. -
Not realised that there had been a rule change for Guest riders for riders riding in the Elite League. Ricky Wells is about as good as we could get for Jason Garrity. Hopefully we will have Simon Stead back from injury. Peterborough have a decent side and will give us a tough time, but I think that we will have too much for them and I will take us to win but it will be tight.

Best Wishes to all at Plymouth lets hope that the problems can be fully resolved.

Redcar Vs Berwick 24/3/15
spin king replied to allthegearbutnaeidea's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Early day yet and anything can happen, but teams who billed as a solid 1 to 5 should be able to cover Rider Replacement for their number 1 if they so chose to do so. -
Spices things up a little bit.

Feel for the fans of Plymouth and the riders. The Promoter should hang their head in shame, they must have known that they were in so much trouble why did not warn people I have not seen anything to say that they have had any financial difficulties. They will have sold season tickets to fans and what about the fans and Promoters at other clubs, they have sold and bought season tickets on the understanding that there would have been 12 league fixtures. Are they going to refund money to the clubs and their fans?

I will have a beg of pegs and some of that lucky heather if you have gotten any.

Leicester V. Sheffield 19/03/16
spin king replied to Cue Ball's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Making the journey myself, and should be the time I will have seen a full meeting at Leicester without having to leave early to get the train home. Again hoping to see a decent performance from the boys not expecting a win, but as long as the boys are competitive I will be happy. -
Ipswich Vs Scunthorpe March 17th 7.30pm
spin king replied to ZODIAK's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Lovely lad Paco, but at this moment he just not ready and the way the league is structured at the moment things are not going to get any better. The clue I guess was how easily Sheffield let Ipswich take Paco and it was not just a loan deal they sold him. Good win for Scunthorpe will be interesting to see how the group unfolds and how they fare against different opposition. For Ipswich I don't think they need to press the panic button just yet James Sarjeant will have faf better nights, but they may need to keep a close look at the reserves which is going to be a weak spot in the team. -
only thing I can see to go on is that both Josh and Simon racing and passing and re passing and Josh picked up some unexpected grip crashed taking Simon with him unfortunately. ( taken from the live update page) Got agree with on Josh.

Only a Challenge match I would imagine that both clubs will come to some sort of arrangement.
