SCB

And now MJJ has been robbed too. Booo

Len really is mugging the fans here. It's not fair on the few who do travel away to watch Rye House - or the away fans.

Wont be Hall if you' re racing Sundays then surely? As he rides longtrack/grasstrack. Ditto Tress. And Covatti will be riding in Italy. And North rides in Poland.

Emil is missed. But Gollob? He was pants last year for most of the year and has got worse this season. Did you see the last SEC meeting? Mind you, Harris is not exactly setting the GPs on fire, so maybe we do need Gollob back

Patrick Dudek has been named now by sportowefakty

My thinking is if I'm doing it for £5 a month and paying £200 i may as well do it for nothing - lower expectation levels, if something fails I get less crap as I could claim, "you get what you pay for". As for messed up fixtures, not hard to randomise things. TBH, the hardest thing is deciding if you have 4 riders in a race, who wins? Highest average rider? well all that will do is give the 10 point rider a 12 point average soon enough while the 3 pointer will never score a point. Add a random factor, how random? Random based on track? Do you take into account riders gating and passing abilities? You can at a simple level just select them in random order - but every rider would end the season as a 6 point rider

I might only £1 a week but Im not convinced people would pay it. I'm not sure what the answer is - but it would be a few months work to make a game, lets say 4-5 months - not if I was doing that for a client I'd expect to be paid 20-30k. How long would it take to get back the 30k? 50 people at £5 a month - thats 10 years without paying any tax! I recon a quicker way to make money is to build a fantasy speedway game and charge £1 a team. Probably closer to 2-3 weeks work and you could probably get 100's of people to play. Still not going to make you as much as working for a client on a boring system for counting welds on an item on a production line!

Do you really think you'd get 1000 people paying £5 a month? If you had 1000 regular players I'd be amazed if 50 were willing to pay £5 each month.

Rained off of facility removed-off?

Rosen is Swedish isn't he? So a Tuesday track is pretty much ruled out.

Let be honest, facilities for riders riding around in a field are a bit farcical. Its one thing if it's a higher ranked meeting but no other sport should be higher ranked than speedway. Looking at this, if the ACU have told David not to ride then the rule Rob quoted about FMNs and international duty makes this legal - but it's not fair on Rye House as quoted. You could also argue that any time a rider rides in a SEC qualifier that he, "is recalled with prior notification, by his FMN for compulsory International or National Championship duty."

I bet the Glasgow fans are scratching their head at Wolbert score!

They're sponsoring Team GB. So get a logo on the riders kevlars at the SWC and on Roscos hat/jacket. Plus I doubt if most speedway sponsors are in it for coverage. They are in it because they're fans in a position to hand over a bit of cash. There probably only a very small number who are doing it for the actual advertising it brings.

He wouldn't really. But I would love to see it happen

Probably in part due to that. Also, I start it, then get a new amazing idea which takes over then I have a new amazing idea for a speedway game and work on that.... Repeat ad infinum One day..... I'll be honest, Im not a businessman so you'll have to take HA's numbers above. But tbh, I'd not necessarily expect to make much from it. As long as I enjoy doing it I'd be quite happy to make any money from it - if it happened. I guess the main "benefit" from it would not be that I'd make my fortune directly from it but I could put it on a CV and show potential employers. It's the same with speedway-stats.co.uk - it's earned me a massive 80p in commission from some sales through amazon (pointless IMO, so I removed the advertising!) but costs about £25 a year for hosting - I'm never going to make £'s from it but it's something I can show potential employers from concept to where it is now and the additional stuff I can do and have working on it that will never see the light of day for most as it's not of interest to the general public. I guess if I actually thought there was a chance to actually make some money I'd put a bit more effort into, find a group of like minded people who'd be interested on working on it - but there again comes the issue - the more of you working no it, the more you have to split any profit. In short, speedway games are no going to make anyone rich.

Whats this all about?

Or get a buy in from fans and sponsors. Actually explain the plan to us, tell us what it's going to cost and how they hope to fund and it you never know - some of us may just be tempted to "be part of " (give them some money)

What this man says! No guest should be allowed.

Hes not done the qualifiers. So it's not really up to him is it? Will BSI give him a wildcard? They should really tell him to take pee off if he expects a wildcard and qualify himself. Saying that, Id love to see Emil back in the GPs

So what we have discovered here is that Leciesters #6 is capable of beating a top 3 PL rider at Edinburgh. Doesn't that mean Leicester wold just be far too strong for Edinburgh?

I can send you a copy later - I think! As you said, it only works on XP though - and even then not very well. You're right about the lack of speedway games. You'd be amazed at the number of times Ive started making one only to get bored and it never see the light of day. I really should make more effort! I know Im not the only person to have done this as Ive spoken to a few speedway fans who have started making games but never got anywhere.

Porky is so terrible he's bad. A visit to Wolves wouldn't be the same without him.

Don't forget 4 extra points for you is 4 less for the opposition too so a swing of 8 points. It can turn a draw into all the points.

Firstly I made my statement before his first Glasgow meeting. Secondly, do you think riders are picked out of nowhere and given a go? He's had a chance, in Sweden and he's not very good. It's a really weird signing.

So there is no boycott. It's just that of the 3 events in Poland this year 2 have been poorly attended and one only fairly attended. That must mean the Poles don't care or can't afford it so I assume that next year in stead of getting 5 events as they have in 2014 (3 GP and 2 SWC) they'll get just the one GP and GB can have an extra meeting or two to take up some of the slack. After all, our SWC meeting was packed out and our GP has for 13 years now got the highest attendance of any GP in that season.
