  1. Guests for a few weeks then Tough on Nico who found himself in the wrong place at the wrong time for his 2 falls last night. Get well soon fella
  2. It means Boro are in a strong position so long as they beat the Witches 9 points 4 meetings ave 2.25 From the 4 team groups this would require 3 home wins 1 away win and 2 losing points to have a higher ave Given that kind of record would normally top a group its unlikely a second placed team will be as a good as that At least it means the Witches still have something to ride for on Tuesday
  3. I just didnt want Sid to be the only one looking all mixed up
  4. Its always disappointing to lose but at least there was a bit more of a spectacle tonight Track was difficult - more than a little rough and rather patchy We never really got going again and 1 or 2 need to give themselves a shake Can there be any positives? You could argue that half a wheel in the right place in heat 15 in both home meetings wouldve resulted in 2 5-1s and 2 wins despite looking poor overall. It is only those small margins that are the difference.
  5. Lakeside not included at that time Peterborough didnt attend Leicester/Sheffield would be a block vote and hold the balance of power between the 2 divisions (if there were a straight split)
  6. Could make a difference if come the end of the year KL pip Swindon to the last play off spot by 1 point.....
  7. Bates would have to return Non like for like redeclaration couldnt include a facility for an injured rider
  8. To have any chance of progress we need to stop Lakeside taking even a point We will need to be 10x better than the first meeting to do that and cant afford too many last places Im confident we will win but hitting 50+ will be tough
  9. Isnt it more likely that the Bates injury will keep him out longer and therefore he will form part of any double change
  10. It was a bold and brave move for Ipswich to switch direction from largely local based riders to bringing in Sigalos and Cook. Chalk and cheese in many ways with Sigalos silky smooth and stylish whilst Cook seemed rough around the edges and was all hustle and bustle. Sigalos for me was only prevented from reaching the very top by injury and could easily have been a worthy world champion at individual level. Cookie was a fans dream with his all action style and flair and often could pull off moves that defied physics! I recall him decked out in camoflauge leathers breaking the track record in his opening ride. In his 2nd outing he appeared to be even quicker and destined to smash his newly set time only to bail out spectacularly. There are not many times when a rider leading so comfortably in race could be so exciting.
  11. Wouldve been excluded as not heading towards the tapes at end of 2 mins
  12. Any truth in the rumour he didnt even have the head of the costume on ? Just a normal Berwick face
  13. It is a measure of his standing that if any 'non speedway' person was to be asked (even now) to name a speedway rider then it would be Ivan more often than not. A true legend of the sport - RIP Ivan
  14. After his last 2 rides Scott is now the most in form rider in the league
  15. Regs have provision for that to make immediate ruling on the day - again with that decision being final Once the meeting starts any protest over team make up is over and cannot be challenged again
  16. You cant ride under protest re a team line up The protest has to be made in the days before hand and the decision is then final
