Exactly a real compliment hyabb, sometimes i regret taking Leigh for granted forgetting just how good he was and making the most of seeing him everyweek. -

How good has Fricke been Phil this year? i have followed his scores and last night he looks to me like he is heading into prime years as a rider really quick i just hope he can crack the GP scene love watching him ride. -

I dont know what you think Hyabb but when the track has been poor ( All of the Swindon fans have admitted this) Troy has looked really tentative cautious.But when the track is decent he has gone to another level really quick riding some great racing lines looking a class act.This is the best i have seen Troy ride since the Copenhagen GP i really hope he can keep it going because we all know there is a world class rider in there. -

I dont know what meeting you were at last night Rob but it was not the same one as me.Heat 1 Berge made a bad mistake causing Fricke out very wide and nearly causing carnage but the track i felt was very good.There were fast times some great nick tuck racing full on .Fricke was electric at times really quick ( he missed the bumps !!) Batchelor was sublime maybe you are a guy who is not easily pleased.? As for the hole ? Batchelor who superbly drilled through on the line against Bjerre must of conveniently missed it.!!! Look this track is not perfect but our fans know that the management are doing great thing's to improve it and i believe this new track size is a breath of fresh air. -

This track can get even better Batchelor has shown if you attack the track you can do well.This year i have seen more decent races than we have seen in the last 5 years.Still along away to go but most Robins fans are honest anough to say when the track has been crap.The Batchelor move on Bjerre said it all for me he drove through hard on the line because he had confidence in the track. -

Another goodnight some really good racing again, i have to say the Aces were very disappointing they are better than that.Batchelor was sublime rasser again was outstanding Perks also rode his nuts off for scant reward he is making a good contribution though.For the Aces Fricke looked mighty quick, when he attacked those first and second bends it was like watching Adams all over again.Both these sides will be in the play/offs but i believe the Aces may have to replace Wells along the way. -

He has not looked dominant this year thus far, the track has been up and down.Heeps beat Doyley on merit and if i hazard a guess i recon it could be 1 a piece tonight. -
Could Anders Thomsen be an option? i cant see Tobi being back within two month's so it is going to be a difficult decision for Rosco.

Cant wait for this meeting a tough ask with no Tobi i think a narrow home win.If the track is as good as the other week i can see Fricke having a field day he is improving rapidly i love watching him ride reminds me so much of Leigh Adams. -
Kent Kings vs Leicester Cubs
Sidney the robin replied to teaboy279's topic in National League Speedway
Will Gilkes be fit for the 23rd the Swindon match? -
Young Rowe at Swindon is improving rapidly, and i have followed him along with A- ORLOV ( Avid Swindon fan) since his mini track appearances at the Abbey.My big hope is Anders can go Prem with the Robins by 2021/22 as you said we have some real talent coming through now and the N.L is a terrific route to come through.
-
A terrific amount of talent in this side reminds me of going back to the great Dent Oliver era young lads getting a chance.I hope two or three come out of this period and go on and have careers in speedway.Just naming a few Bickley, Rowe, Palin, Thompson ( 2) Kelly, Ablitt, Gilkes, Mcgurk(2) Simpson,Freeman, Wirtzfield,(etc) how exciting is the NL just shows you what that plank Cook knows about speedway.

Really would be great if Mr Bishop did, other posters over the month's have really praised how good the Isle of Wight is.In this day and age and in this difficult climate under Bishop they are reaching out a great family day out.He seems to have a balance pay the bills get some of the new punters back again and put money into the future .
-
Thank you , Mr Bishop who sent me a message last year mentioned it thanks again flipper11.Will take City Rebel's advice and go from Portsmouth.
-
Thanks Gould i have seen it, really is terrific the club has a great history and great fans.
-
You know more about the NL product than me Sings- but the league is doing a great job. Last night i watched the young Brennan and/ Mum video on the Eastbourne tv and god how professional and heartwhelming was that.What they have achieved with there media side of things is terrific so Cook's ridiculous comments should not tar all the Eastbourne set up with the same brush.
-
Lyager would be a really good shout, Pickering/ Stewart are two others i would consider if they were available.
-
What do Budgie fans think do we sign Starke now?? or wait and go in a different direction.Even with Starke ( Pickering mentioned) i believe this side will win the league now Jensen on a 4.51 average a steal unreal really.

Ipswich v Swindon Prem Lge 13th June 2019
Sidney the robin replied to BluPanther's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Glad this is off to be honest, i would rather see two full strength sides ride i did fancy a close home win. -
Thanks City, i have only ever been there once before in 1975 when the Hovercraft came out.
-
Totally agree with you, to think Chadster how riders in the 60s /70s would win a second half junior scurry then line up against the likes of Briggs in there next race.It is amazing how many riders that did come through as novices and how some did not get demoralized along the way and give up.
-
I am going to try to get there City this year for a 2 day stay with my wife.I fancy the Leicester or Kent encounter is it best to get the crossing from Southampton - City.???

Does anyone care what John Cook says ? he should be fined for his ridiculous comments em he probably could not afford to pay.!!!!Look at the difference of Cook and passionate and progressive MR Bishop at the Isle of Wight they are like chalk/ cheese.
