Patched up GB team far from disgraced and experience will be priceless

They might just as well let teams pick 7 riders who have nothing better to do on race night

As I predicted you are spot on. Not sure about him lowering himself to Tipswitchs level and dumping on Lakeside from a great height tho.

Not sure where to put this but I guess it will precipitate another rant from Haza and to be honest he will be right No doubt Tipswitch will sign another untried foreigner. Still they never had any class down there in Suffolk

Now when the debate about the rules piques my interest more than the scores themselves the sport really is on a steep downward slope

Not even following the updates closely tonight. Too many questions over elegibility, make up of teams and far too many guests. It's a bit like rent a rider

But would they be available at short notice? I have no idea if riders are paid for this but if they are I doubt many if any will make a profit so it's maybe unrealistic to expect them to drop everything at a couple of days notice

I beleive so but I'm not a regular so don't take it as gospel but you can get a good view into pits from the first bend. BTW I wasn't joking about the cold, if you are bringing the kids wrap them up warm, parts of the terracing are like being in Siberia when the wind blows and it's blowing well today

Hells Bells they got it right Admittedly it's only a very light drizzle Anyone mad enough to be venturing to the Norfolk Arena for this one, put your thermals and winter woollies on cos it's still blowing a hoolie out there and it's bloody cold.

That of course is if he did. As others have said best not to speculate on any aspect until it comes to court.

I wonder what the track will be like. Helluva lot of rain fell yesterday, more today I doubt there is much dry shale about.

I see quite a few calls for riders to be got rid of, funnily enough there are few if any suggestions of who to replace them with.

I agree bloody ridiculous. Can't see away fans doing it given the British weather. I guess today was the first really big crowd, opening night apart, so tickets on the day getting their first big test and been found wanting. Why only 3 ticket windows, even Lynn have 4? Very poor forward thinking, you don't have to use them all but at least if they are there you can if needed.

If they are, and I'm not disputing it I have no idea, their opposition are obviously allowing it. Now either they don't know the rules or couldn't give a toss

Dunno why anyone reads his posts. He always follows the party line, is never controversial, never know the rules, hasn't a clue about averages and hates disagreeing with anyone .

If I'm totally honest, I cannot remember a single race he has been in so he isn't memorable. It could be argued that not memorable is another way of saying boring. I'm feeling not memorable at the moment

I'd go along with that plus some kind of fast track system in the PL to encourage and nurture the young NL riders. Rome wasn't built in a day and neither will speedway be put back on the right track but the above is a good starting point.

If the rules were not so complicated there would be far less potential for them to be bent.

Going by the lack if interest perhaps no one is going

Following the tweet that all riders will have to qualify for the British Final in 2017 with no wild cards, I'm thinking the BSPA are raising one and a half fingers in the direction of Mr Woffinden

My hope would be that he would have more time to focus on Lynn speedway and make improvements to it presentation & off track entertainment wise but I honestly think he , along with the other promoters, don't think there is anything wrong.

Just been announced that Buster has sold King's Lynn Football Club. Whether this will have any effect on the speedway is a matter of conjecture.

I'll go along with that but only if everyone agrees not to infect other threads with Woffinden debates

Why do so many threads turn into debates about Woffinden He doesn't ride in the EL. Doesn't want to ride in the EL and this is a thread about the EL. Let's just ignore him for heavens sake, in the same way as he is ignoring the EL.

So why don't all tracks do it. It's only a minor issue but so simple and cheap to put right.
