Emil with 6 points from 6 rides tonight. Obviously not fit.

If you include the superheat then Emil will equal that score. Was at Birmingham earlier in the season when he scored 19 points and won the superheat. He therefore had 23 points when Ipswich had 45 points (including the superheat scores).

Watched Torun you tube channel on the meeting (didn't understand what was being said). Emil wasn't taking part in the group warmup (seemed to be 1 to 1) and wasn't with the riders celebrating the win. As you say possibly some pressure to ride (said missing the meeting before was his choice). If Torun have paid or assisted with his rehab then possibly not wanting to take a chance with the injury? I think he would have been racing if he hadn't been injured as Lambert and Dudek are still racing for other teams.

Well done Freddie and his 16 competitors. Enjoyed the meeting and good to see the riders walk away after their crashes. Much prefer the format of top points scorer wins (unlike GP's when top points scorer doesn't always make the final never mind winning).

That's what I was thinking when I seen heat 13 on Facebook. Been on holiday so not seen the matches yet.

Like Jack and Freddie missing meetings in the UK after a GP?

Probably his own making. At the start of last season was he not looking to push Emil and Jason for the number 1 race jacket (sure that was mentioned various times before). Sometimes better keeping your goals to yourself.

Says on the British speedway site that Leicester looking to finish top so they have choice of legs in the final (if they get there). That would say whoever does finish top (if the top 2 both get through) will get the second leg. Last year the final was 3rd v 4th so could be an upset somewhere.

Just reading the preview on the sgb website. When did Sheffield take the captaincy from Kyle and give it to Chris? Good to see Dan back from injury as well.

Polish not the best but possibly player replacement for Emil (sportowefacty ish reporting).

Forget my ignorance. Who is HS? Agree about Dan Thomson having a good season (for Plymouth and Ipswich). Think if he didn't get hurt in SGP2 SON then Britain would surely have got a medal.

Jye rode for Sheffield (against Wolves) near the end of the season as well as the final. Got the wrong post.

When the kings Lynn v Leicester matches were getting postponed earlier in the season most people would be thinking that the teams would be in a fight to finish 4th. The SCB (or who made the decision) wouldn't have been thinking the top 3 would drop that many points that Leicester would have a possibility of finishing top.

Seen various riders getting their chain taken off and the race not being stopped. Was pushing with his foot.

Mason Watson, Jamie Halder, Jacob Clouting and Ashton Vale. On Berwick website.

Probably because the team is losing, people are looking at scores closer? Looking on the speedway updates site (thanks again) Danny's form does seem to have slipped (still getting 7's and 8's but having 6 rides to get the points). His average for the 4 losses at home is about 6 whereas the previous 4 matches at home it's just over 7.5

Laguta and Tarasenko are racing in Sweden? Sure I seen artem's team getting hammered couple of weeks ago (he did ok).

Hopefully for someone else. Would take Danyon and Bastian on the same averages (easy choice for me).

Just looking on updates and he must have been excluded for the 2 minutes and delaying the start as it says Milford warned for moving in heat 8 after the race. He would have had to be excluded and went of 15 metres if the original offence was for the tapes.

I agree entirely with your post. Problem being other teams won't rearrange meetings if riders are injured or racing elsewhere which is probably the reason the league fixtures aren't completed yet (despite only having 8 league fixtures to fit in).

Take it Birmingham meeting is off on Monday?

Justin started off well then had his unfortunate fall. Hopefully not out for any time. And to think that people want a second round of league fixtures added. Only 8 league matches to fit in and they aren't completed by the end of August. Will be racing in November with another set of fixtures added.

Thought Danyon was racing also (at Redcar with Drew). Might now just watch the stream if nothing else on.

Hopefully means he is racing. Sure Torun can use r/r for him if they have to as he is in the top 2 of the Torun averages. Said earlier that teams couldn't use r/r for Jason, Tai and Dan as they weren't in the top 2 of their respective teams averages.

Please quote whole post. I said people were talking about Lambert being on an adjusted average and Harris had guested for Ipswich in the playoffs. I might need to pick what parts of a post to adjust what people say.
