  1. If it wasn’t on tv or streaming, you’d have to attend in person - and pay - to get your dose of speedway.
  2. On the recent British Final thread…. On 5/13/2025 at 9:02 AM, Steve Shovlar said: Completely forgot this event was taking place. Just watched it this morning. First impressions. Did they forget to advertise it? Virtually no one there. A real issue. Belle Vue have hosted the British Final for quite a few years now and clearly the locals don’t want it anymore. They simply can’t be arsed to come out. Time for the event to come further south or try a different venue. More rubbish from Mr Shoveller about last night on a similar line to that above - the old boy has really lost it, or…. he takes us all for (word not allowed on here).
  3. I am not a fan of Tai, but….. After a knighthood for Beckham, for whatever, I see that two darts players have been honoured by “our King”. I am not a fan of the honours system but….. Surely Tai is far, far, far more deserving of some recognition?
  4. Enjoying the coverage here on TNT - just adverts between blocks of four races, none of those awful interviews
  5. Not sure the word “crowd” applies to UK speedway any longer
  6. The winner should be the top scorer from 20 heats (after any necessary run-off). It was bad enough when 21st heat was introduced to individual meetings, so that the winner could be the fourth best. Now the GP winner could be the tenth best. Nonsense!
  7. Can we go back to 1994 when we had a proper World Speedway Championship
  8. Great that there’s a tribute to Billy. But all the excitement on here about the second half heats!!! They used to be standard fare, and a damned good watch too. Go back to 13 heats and a full second half, including juniors’ heats.

  10. Please avoid Osbourne being referred to by initials. There was only one CO, Mr Charles Ochiltree. I thank you! 🐝
  11. Always a sore point is that Nigel Boocock never received an honour
