Poole Pirates Vs Coventry Bees 17/6/15
mdmc82 replied to Shaleshifter's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Neither Iversen or Kildemand ride for Swindon now. Bjerre still got race win & scored 6. Every point counts towards the total. Great win for Sweden though. -

And yet Pedersen & Bjerre still went home with a silver medal even on a off night 😉 -

Hans has confirmed he will ride for Coventry instead of Denmark on Wednesdsy 👍🏻 I think Poole should win at home. I would be happy with a point. -
Congratulations to Birmingham. Look good all meeting. Unlucky for Coventry Storm to just miss out on the race off but should be proud of what they did. Kent also looked good. Was very surprised by how poor Cradley rode as was expecting them to put up a strong challenge. It seemed strange watching Eastbourne & Birmingham in the NL instead of EL but great to see them both racing I agree with a lot on Twitter, we had huge amounts of rain last couple of days and therefore track was bit patchy to start with as hadn't been watered anymore to start with because of chance of rain but once the rain came the track improved a lot. The crashes were mainly down to hard racing or technical faults in the bikes in the case of Bradley & Shuttleworth. There are always more crashes in NL unfortunately due to lack of experience or control as a lot are still learning. Was the same riders most of the time. I hope the supporter who was stood on the away bend is okay after their fall.

And if you speak to Garrity or Sarjeant I'm sure they would say the same about Newman -

Garrity never sets out to take other riders off unlike some riders. Didn't move up to top of the tier 1 ranking by always coming off. -

Good point. Unfortunately you know as well as I do that it will most likely be Tue before we find out -

I was thinking the same. Good rider but very reckless on the bike lately. -

BT sport is not included in the sky sports package or the Variety package. You have to pay extra for that as it's a add on channel. -
COVENTRY look forward to welcoming supporters of all competing clubs - and neutrals - to Brandon for Sunday's National League Fours (3pm). The wet weather of Saturday cleared by mid-afternoon, and conditions on Sunday morning are dry, bright and breezy with a good forecast for the day. The Speedway World Cup Final in Vojens was abandoned after just one race on Saturday and is to be re-staged on Sunday afternoon, with delayed coverage on British Eurosport 1 at 7pm. There is no live TV broadcast of this event, so it's the perfect opportunity to catch 24 races of live speedway at Brandon, with the City Gearboxes Storm one of several clubs with their eyes on the trophy in what looks an open contest, and then watch the World Cup Final in the evening. Gates open at 1.30pm for a 3pm start, and admission is £15 for adults and all children free of charge. Eurosport are charging £5.99 for people to watch SWC live online so going to watch it for free at 7pm on Eurosport.

Swc Final 2015

Really wrong for people to have a go at Andy or Scott as they have no say over TV showings. Eurosport are now saying it will just be highlights at 7pm. Is that to try and encourage people to pay for it earlier -
He seems to have spent more time off the bike than on for both Workington and Cradley. Rosco was quoted last year as saying it's the way he rides the bike but he wouldn't take any advise when Alun or the Swindon boys kept trying to offer it to him.

You are so missing the point. Yesterday those of us that pay for Sky or Virgin could watch it for free. Yet today we are meant to pay for it because BSI didn't have a back up plan. I'm going to NL fours so will record it later but my grandad wanted to watch it live. Has no laptop etc only TV to watch it on. -

I already pay a lot for Sky so not going to pay extra for a channel I already pay for. Yes it's been mentioned on Twitter that it's £5.99 if just want to watch this one programme. I have already paid for this meeting by having sky. Now expected to pay £5.99. Joke -

Costs £3.99. Disgraceful really when should be free as it would have been last night. We already pay enough for Sky or Virgin already without paying more. I will watch it at 7pm for free. Can't believe they had no back up plan in place when the forecast was always poor for Saturday -
Good news is there is sun and blue skies at the moment in Coventry 😄⛅️ I'm looking forward to this meeting and think the line ups look that competitive that it's hard to predict a winner. Team change for King's Lynn Campos & Hazelden are replaced with Josh Bailey & Ryan Kinsley. Does anybody know why the change has been made? Might strengthen them at Brandon as Harris was much better than Greaves in the challenger. Greaves scored 0 Harris 10

Good for me as going to NL fours so means I won't have to record it. Will just have to avoid social media until later. -

Coventry may be without Hans Andersen as aren't his Danish team riding the same day? -

😂 Twitter is full of similar comments. They are lucky, if it had been on sky then they would have had to call it off 48 hours ago regardless of conditions. I take it the riders with now be fined for not wanting to race in dangerous conditions like in EL? -
Lol. It was tempting. 😄 Seemed very out of place as well.

Where did I say I was at Swindon?? The comments I made were about the Swindon match at Brandon last year (one with Dave Robinson) where some moaned blaming the very light drizzle in later heats for their teams loss. (You never keep me on block for very long seeing as you say you don't want to see my comments 😉)

The wind was 45 - 50mph on the night according to forecasts (there was a wind warning) http://www.thefreedictionary.com/Gale+force Above is what is meant by the term gale force. I'm not convinced you were there as your accounts of what happened that night are more like you watched it on TV. Were you the only Poole fan we saw in stands with the drum? You must have missed sky having to use wood to keep down their camera as the wind kept knocking the stand & camera over and the tyres kept moving on the dog track BEFORE the start. Not sure what time you got there, if at all, if you think it wasn't windy till later on. 😴😉 The fact the times were 6 seconds slower than usual shows that the riders were holding back on the track and felt uncomfortable
