So no real answer to the question! Starke wins depriving the National League Riders Development in order for more track time to improve his prior dismal performances. Hope he is really proud of his win at the cost of Youth Development and Poole made a profit on the meeting!

With tonight's meeting being advertised as:- Harbour Masters Championship (National League Riders Development Individual) Then why is Paul Starke replacing William Cairns? We Know William is injured, but which National League team Does Paul Starke represent?

The racing was second to none. But with such a poor crowd, how will the riders be paid? Promotion be able to stage these events? More has to be done to actually promote the sport to people who do not even know it exists.

Do you really follow speedway at all or are even interested in it? The so called Junior races are the future of British Speedway and some wonderful talent on show. I for one, are far more interested in watching these young lads aspire to the dizzy heights of representing their Premier League teams in the future. But hold on, you will not watch them now, but will in the future?

Like I mentioned before, the apathy is here in the UK itself, wih little if no help given to the prospective riders.

According to the fixture list above 6 matches should have taken place by now. Does anyone know any results and riders taking place? Would be great if anyone could keep us updated how all the riders are doing?

Do they do a 250cc?

Great watch on the Plymouth stream. Only criticism is lets see the after meeting kids on show, they deserve the coverage as they are the future.

It appears that Adam Ellis rode a Godden Engine on the parade prior to the Ipswich v Birmingham match tonight. Anyone have any details, pictures or news on a new Godden Engine?

SCB REGULATIONS 2025 013.1.1 Rider Match Averages and Gradings Riders in the National League and National Trophy competitions must hold an ACU licence, SCB Registration and a British Passport. A team may include 1 rider who has previously achieved an MA above 4.00 to a maximum of 6.00 (inclusive) in the Championship League (prior to the 2024 season) who is not declared in a Championship or Premiership Team Declaration. If that rider is then declared in a Championship or Premiership Team Declaration the NDL/NDT club will have 28 days to replace that rider from the date of the Championship/Premiership declaration. New riders with a British Passport will enter the NDL and/or NDT on a 3.00 MA. A riders MA will be based upon their latest (attained during the 2022 - 2024 only) NDL or Championship MA (multiplied by 2 and subject to the minimum/maximum converted MA’s being 3.00/12.00). --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Potentially with Luke Harris not riding between these years a newly assessed average could explain it how Nathan Ablitt can be fitted into the team? Who knows and if you do please let everyone know?

Ant details of yesterdays result?

The apathy on this particular thread just shows what our speedway community think of Women's Speedway!!! If the interest is non existent here, then what will it be like for this event in Croatia?

Vinnie Foord 6.29 Kent Luke Harrison 5.36 Steelers Sam McGurk 5.56 Birmingham Senna Summers 3.44 Oxford Max James 7.2 Birmingham Kai Ward 3.58 Middlesbrough Cooper Rushen 3.00 Kings Lynn Total 37.43

With no competitive speedway or any riders, why oh why is this event being held in Croatia? To expect any of the existing riders to make such a long and expensive journey is beyond belief. Surely Poland, Denmark, Sweden, Italy or the UK would be a more suitable venue for most of the existing riders? This is why speedway is on the decline at the moment with ridiculous planning and promoting of speedway!

After complaining numerous times about pricing and entertainment value, I think with what is on offer at Perry Bar at this fixture it is reasonably priced. Not only are Birmingham Bulls riding against Leicester Fox Cubs in the inaugural National Development Trophy meeting, additionally Birmingham Buffaloes are racing against Wolverhampton Wolf Cubs in the Midland Development League. 21 Heats with the future stars of British Speedway on show, what's not to like?

Well today sees an absolute stunner edition of Speedway Star. Credit due when it is deserved, well done to everyone at Speedway Star.

With such an excellent line up, unfortunately its looking like the least supported opening event of the season. Surely instead of advertising it to the converted, time needs to be spent now in ACTUALLY PROMOTING speedway to the un initiated. After the debacle of attendance and third bend temporary stand at the Speedway of Nations, now something must be done. When the best British Speedway track cannot attract spectators, then what does the future hold. Ticket pricing must also be taken into consideration as it definitely is with many fans I know who cant afford present prices.

So according to your philosophy when this existing generation pops their clogs, speedway is done? Whether it be magazines, internet, book or stone etchings on tablets everyone needs to wake up and embrace the new technology and push our great sport forward and stop digging the grave deeper. It can be done and the sport re invented, just some bright spark to have the right idea and do it instead of continually living in the past. For me snooker is just as dire and boring as it has always been, but it gets worldwide coverage and enormous sponsorship. Darts is more about the personal experience at tournaments and a happy bunch of pi22heads attending and look at the media coverage. Speedway is far more exciting but it needs a guru to drag it into this year and help them exploit the potential it has.

I suggest that anyone with any interest how the Mildenhall Speedway Supporter CIC has to operate take a look at what is required by visiting Community Interest Companies Guidance - GOV.UK Everything is very clear on what can and cannot be done. I took time to read and follow certain FAQ and found out what I needed without bothering anyone.

Lets face reality and put it as it is. The Speedway Star caters for the 50-70+ age bracket. With 2 articles on Anders Rowe - thought I had early signs of dementia after reading first article and the a few days later realising their were 2 articles. Nothing wrong with the West Ham memories, but to include details of Australia test match in same issue? Might be good reads, but for which age group? How can British Speedway Improve- Well lets deliver a magazine that entices a new generation to buy it as something is in it that is actually relevant to the new youth generation.

This a Mildenhall 2025 potential return topic. So why not just stick to the actual subject. Stop deviating and get behind the actual potential return of a speedway track and embrace it.

Are their any further updates on National Development Trophy application or Safety Barriers?

Well with the latest post from Mildenhall, it looks like nothing is insurmountable. That is great news. Now lets hope all the 3.1k Mildenhall Fen Tigers Speedway Facebook followers can contribute a little to bring back a much loved and missed speedway track and team.

Wow, those pictures look pretty foreboding. Will have to be one hell of a safety fence to overcome requirements and no doubt it will be expensive. Hope all goes well for the return irrespective of the new obstacle.

Any further updates on the Western Row Front?
