Thanks for your input.

I think this is a bit extreme, but having just witnessed your team throw us around like a wet towel, then it’s fair enough. The top heavy team building was evidently strategic; a risk to seek the reward. Evidently, the plan was for the main body of the side to accommodate young Freddy and Max, thus affording them time to develop and fulfil their potential. What there wasn’t a contingency plan for was young Ashton - who drew the short straw with his average, becoming a victim of his own rapid progress - having a nightmare season. It’s also about small margins. Leon Flint scored 3 from 4 at Scunthorpe. Inexcusable and had he scored one more point, we would have won that meeting. Had he scored at all in his first two rides at home to Poole, we would have drawn and had Jason Edwards and Paul Starke not secured a 5-1 over him in heat 12 of the same meeting, we would have won. Had Kyle Howarth not been passed twice in his first two heats in that same Poole meeting, or scored one point from heats 13 and 15 at home, we’d have won or drawn. Our team building strategy means we can’t accommodate those shortcomings. We’ll have a good season, all in, but that title is Poole’s. 100%. That track, however, would cause a man to fall out of love with speedway.

Poole vs Glasgow 2/7/25

Can anyone fathom a reason for why that track produces such poor racing? As I mentioned last night, I remember Wimborne Road producing magical racing with the SWC. Heat thirteen was good last night, but it took seven - yes, seven - heats before we saw a pass beyond the second bend. All in all, I counted four passes the entire evening after the first lap. Poole are going to win this league. They wiped the floor with us, but what they serve on that track from an entertainment perspective will play its part in killing British speedway. -

I haven’t even mentioned the big, thick blue lines that have appeared on the first and second bends since heat two. -

Heat thirteen and it’s the first exciting race of the night. If this meeting is was taking place in my back garden, I’d close the curtains. -

Look at the state of this. It looks like someone’s let off a flare, it’s so dusty. -

Blobby, you’re an Edinburgh fan and I’m a Glasgow fan, so enjoy the nick of us here. We should be pointed at and laughed at. Please, however, don’t tolerate, never mind excuse this track. Trust me; it will play its part in the death of the sport in this country. This is the third meeting BSN have covered at Wimborne Road this season and it’s been the same dull, boring, stale, lifeless, monotonous show every single time. This isn’t unique to this evening. -

Heat eleven and we have the second pass of the evening. What a spectacle. -

Seventh heat, first pass after lap one. Only the second pass of the night, the first of which came on the first lap of the same heat. The Thompson twins look terrified on this track. -

This is absolute brain damage speedway. Let’s hope there’s no first time viewers because as a spectacle, this has been utter rubbishe. Six races and the only pass beyond the back straight of lap one was Lawson’s questionable one on Hodder. Such a poor meeting in terms of entertainment. I remember Poole used to host the SWC; it was outstanding. What happened? -

Lawson versus Harris; a clash of the titans. Shame it’s at speedway’s equivalent of a sleeping tablet, Wimborne Road. Worth noting that as a Glasgow fan, that was an outrageous decision to warn Lawson as well as Harris. Another woeful refereeing decision from that young lady. -

I’ll be pleasantly surprised if we’re competitive, but can’t see beyond a comfortable home win. Being reliant on two guests is far from ideal. -
The cloak and dagger statements from both the BSPA and Workington leave you with more questions than answers. What I do know from working closely with Global Mobility functions regarding the sponsorship and distribution of visas (both in the UK and abroad) is these ”administrative issues” mentioned are an inexcusable oversight and to be honest, elementary. Workington‘s choice of words shows they know that. British speedway does it again. A total shambles.

53-37, Tigers win. I’m in London for work, so had hoped to catch the meeting on a live stream, but don’t think the club has one. -
A professional performance here from the Monarchs, although that 5-1 keeps Oxford’s hopes alive. I’m surprised by Luke Harrison. I’ve been impressed each time I’ve seen him, but he’s well off it tonight. Probably an example of where guests just don’t have the same impact as the riders they replace. Replaced here.
