BERWICK v ARMADALE (May 1st, 7pm) NDL
PotteringAround replied to crescent girl's topic in National League Speedway
Is the Berwick website working for everyone else? This page works https://www.berwickspeedway.com/news/bullets-going-live/ But then I just get a mess when I try to open it here. https://www.berwickspeedway.com/banditstv/ -
I've been reading this thread because there's not much else going on. Decided to upload a few quid to Bet365 to play with whilst watching a Polish match last night. (not sure why people rave about Polish league. It was dragged out and quite boring racing) But anyway, at least I doubled my money by betting on Jankowski to outscore Pawlicki by 2, and Pedersen to score less than13. They seemed pretty obvious bets that I saw someone recommend. I'm now looking at Leszno v Torum today. Doyle to outscore Jack Holder by more than 1, and Sajfutdinov to outscore Lambert by more than 1, would seem obvious to me. Am I missing something? I know little about Polish racing, so I base my decisions on Britain and GPs. Is Polish form a lot different? Or is the worry that Holder and Lambert will have extra TS rides? I don't know the Polish TS rules. Do they sound like sensible bets? Maybe I got lucky last night. I don't want to push my luck.

Yes. Obviously, it matters to her or she wouldn't have wasted her time asking. Maybe it doesn't matter to you, but then it seems silly wasting your time responding. (especially as you don't know either).
-
You're suggesting he should give up his NL place at Kent and sign for Redcar in the Championship instead?
-
And Ryan Kinsley is at King's Lynn / Kent.
-
Final rider being revealed on Facebook at 7pm. That should make all NL teams complete.
-
Either Danno Verge or Henry Atkins would be a good option, depending on which one is the Eastbourne third heat-leader and which one is available.

Has British Speedway now reached the bottom?
PotteringAround replied to Wee Eck's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Very poorly worded insensitive post. A bit like posting "Happy Birthday to Fred West - For all his faults, he laid a nice patio" -
It's you who missed the point. Yet you so nearly get there, and then completely miss. As you say, the BSP Limited has the right to choose whether to employ a rider or not. If they choose not to employ someone who is riding/has ridden with a rival organisation that's their prerogative. They are breaking no laws. But no one said they did! A rider is completely free to go and ride for whatever alternative organisation the Isle of Wight club might propose to race under. All we are saying is that such a rider would have to be prepared for the BSP Ltd to say, if you're riding for another organisation, you're not riding for us.
-
Absolute nonsense. The BSPA choosing not to use the services of a rider who rides for a rival organisation is no different to someone choosing not to buy cosmetics from a company that tests their products on animals, or a vegetarian boycotting McDonalds.

My Star arrived about 4am this morning! Only problem is that there's no plastic wrap, nor the good old brown envelope, so I'm worried that with the new thinner paper, on a rainy day, I'm just going to have a soggy pulpy mess stuck in the letterbox.

35.83 ? Quite a bit over the limit?
-
Definitely wouldn't be the case. The idea of the turnstile clicks was so that the owners of the Zoological gardens could check that the turnstile operator employees weren't stealing from them. The money handed in had to exactly match the number of turnstile clicks registered.
-
Absolutely. I think the vast majority of people on here were gobsmacked when Ledwith was allowed in on a 3.50 average. He immediately doubled his average before settling back to around 6.00 by the end of the year, as was totally predictable, and indeed predicted by a large number of members of this forum. History is about to repeat itself here in an even weaker league. Seems a bit unfair on the novice 15-year-old 3.00 newcomer riders to know they're up against an experienced ex-NL heat leader who is only rated half a point higher.
-
He's been out a long time (10 years) so should be reassessed, but he was a 7.20 rider then in a much tougher league. If he has been assessed at anything below 5 in such a weak league as this year's, they've been very, very lucky!
-
Odsal??? I'll have a pint of what he's drinking.
-
Suggest you buy a new calculator (presume you mean the limit will be 38.00 exactly?)

Josh Embleton as 3rd heatleader on 4.83

Belle Vue Aces 2020
PotteringAround replied to Phil The Ace's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Wolves were 3rd in the league standings, Ipswich 4th. (The top 2 - Poole and Swindon - are no longer competing). -
Belle Vue Aces 2020
PotteringAround replied to Phil The Ace's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Yes. After new boys Sheffield, the rest allegedly got to pick in order of the 2019 finl league table, worst to best, so the order of picking was Peterborough, King's Lynn,, Belle Vue, Ipswich, Wolves. (Though that does make you wonder why Drew Kemp wasn't picked earlier) -
Agree. The NSS, when full, is magnificent, and the track provides entertainment second to none. Plymouth Speedway Stadium might not match Arsenal's Emirates football ground, but I'd rather watch Speedway at Plymouth than Football at Arsenal. Having said that, Berwick Speedway is at least as good as Berwick Rangers football stadium. Poole Speedway is much better than Poole Town FC stadium. I'm sure we'd all like to have more state-of-the-art Speedway stadiums, but money talks, and you have to live within your means, and enjoy what you have. After all some people have rich lives and move to Mayfair, while others are stuck in Penge.
