  1. Most programme's contain little of relevance to the visitors other than team profile so an insert with team profile of new visitors on the back makes sense.
  2. From the latest Cheetah's Chronicle: Another Dane, Marcus Birkemose with paid twelve for Krosno Wolves, provided the most interesting story of the day. Back in 2022 18-year-old Marcus, already regarded as a difficult rider to handle, counted among the hottest prospects in speedway. That all came crashing down when he received a two year ban for smoking marijuana. He made a quiet return last season riding for Gdansk in the Polish third tier (and Slangerup back in Denmark). This year he’s moved to Krosno and has been scoring freely. From what I saw he hasn’t lost his ability to work the track, switching lines in an instant, the sort of rider it is a joy to watch. If his ‘Kevin the teenager’ years are well and truly behind him he could still go far in the sport. oops
  3. Holder has score of 4, 6 and 8 away from home this year. He's not ridden there before. So I'd say that's unlikely.
  4. And while we have King, Lawson, Wright and Harris they have Berntzon, Thorssell, Nilsson and Lahti. Currently the best Swedes under 30 are probably Filip Hjelmland (27) and Rasmus Karlsson (18). The latter is a real prospect but elsewhere talent is thin on the ground.
  5. That includes bonus. Without bonus 1.167
  6. PGE2 2026 Averages (per ride) Jan Kvech 2.524 Patryk Wojdyło 1.892 Zach Cook 1.886 Kai Huckenbeck 1.833 Francis Gusts 1.500 Tai Woffinden 1.417
  7. And: No early call off in the face of very poor weather forecasts Only one fall, and only one rerun Plenty of passing A tight match with uncertain outcome (until ht 13) An early finish Easily the best meeting of the season at Sandy Lane.
  8. Also if you save £80+ on travel costs by buying the stream you are probably more likely to spend on burgers and raffle tickets at your next home meeting.
  9. 100% agree. Very few riders get a GP chance so young. Those that do generally struggle, for example Artem Laguta, Tai Woffinden. Even 21 year old Jason Crump generally struggled in his debut seasonl But you know what they all did OK in the end.
  10. So after getting it wrong last time [Madsen & Holder in Prague] he didn't even bother to find out why. How pathetically unprofessional.
  11. What and miss the glamour and atmosphere of Mildenhall or Berwick?
  12. Last night he scored 13 points - 7 of them from the back. Some riders don't make that many passes in a season. And Bartek was doing it against the world's best.
  13. Which one? Bart in the short term Or Rado who looks the longer term better bet
  14. Awarding the race is discretionary, not mandatory, so perfectly within rules.
  15. Isle of Wight local and Nora regular for 3-4 years. About same standard as Max Broadhurst
  16. There is no way Charles would get a dispensation. You could bring in Charles and a 2 pointer, but would have to drop Allen or Edwards and one of the other four.
  17. Well then you have no business being involved in speedway
  18. You kinda expect Kelvin not to know his stuff, but to have no one who can explain it on hand is shocking.
  19. Is that the same Dan Bewley who fluked a win in Cardiff 2024 when he barely deserved to be in the semis?
  20. I think Stewart said early June return last night.
  21. Did you fancy a glacier mint last night?
