Chrisdonnelly

Belle vue has been like that since I can remember. So 40 years of crap presentation, crap food, crap drinks ( if there’s any left). Luckily the NSS has saved them in the entertainment department otherwise I’d have stopped going long ago.

Hmm have you been through the city centre recently? Rough as toast, constant protest marches at the weekend. Not to mention the crime around picadilly would certainly put people off. Meet and greet in the longsight club on kirky lane 😅

I really really hope the league changes next year. Sick of watching the same teams, if that means only having 1 top rider then so be it.

Anyone know what theyve charged to watch at the stadium tonight? Might have something to do with it, based off the prices at nss last year!!

Pull up as many stats as you want. 5+2 at home in a playoff sf isnt good enough for an experienced rider.

Kept hold of norick, lidsey & tate way too long this season. Mulford does whats expected and chips in. Lidsey imo has never looked comfortable in the uk. No idea why lemo keeps signing him. Looks quick when out of the gate at nss but no desire to mix it like brady,cook,bewley. Away form is woeful at best. Norick hasnt improved over the seasons we've had him & tate needed a season to get his confedence back

Oh ffs

Oh ffs

Belle vue have to replace blodorn & tate but im thinking he will keep the same team. This needs to happen before b/h meeting! Cant believe im saying this but what ave would worrall come in on?

Blodorn riding completely the wrong line, even an halfwit can see where to ride. Tate is in over his head and needs replacing - no confidence

Track will be fine. Are all the riders able to fly back to the UK given the storms?

5 mins from track. Overnight rain. Had nothing since 6am, currently dry , overcast but sun has been poking through

One of my fav riders , great to see him over here again but not as an ace 😔

As a belle vue fan, i feel a bit sick

I just think the calibre of riders are so poor now. Not sure if its the bikes , engines or what but hardly any of them can ride the tracks and actually have enough track craft and speed to pass anyone? Cant blame the tracks, we've had some right dumps in years gone by and you at least saw the odd pass.

God knows how people pay money to go and watch this every week

Id expect them to at least wait till dinner time and see if the radar has changed

I think sheff are back within a few points by heat 4 then run away with it. Kurtz/bewley/jaimon no match at sheffield unfortunately

Wow thats some front. Possible small man syndrome? I think some of these aussies are forgetting they are 4ft nothing & 50kg p@#sed wet through. Would absolutly love to meet one in person

Credit to Oxford tonight score line doesn’t reflect the efforts. Some of the best racing I’ve seen at nss this year.

Can excuse a bad night for kurtz but lidsey has been awful away now for years and isnt showing any signs of being interested except at NSS. League titles are won on the away leg which is a big worry

I went on tuesday. Catering was worse than normal ( god knows how thats possible) 5 staff watching 1 working. Expect beer to run out by 7pm like in previous years

Really enjoyed both meetings. As expected the usual suspects qualified but the lesser nations put up a fight. Track has been better than expected given the weather! Certainly will be close on saturday , could be a cracker. Track will no doubt be completely different so cant look at the top performers from both nights. Kurtz over holder for the aussies

There isnt much around the stadium unless you like curry & kebabs in which case theres plenty in longsight which is where you will get off the 192 bus from stockport. If i were you id eat in stockport then get the bus. I highly recommend stockport produce hall . It has small independant street food style stuff and very good prices

Still holding off buying tickets with a hope of price reduction
