King’s Lynn Stars v Leicester Lions - Thursday 9th May
arnieg replied to StarBoy's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I don't think there is enough space to fit 'called off because promoter has the emotional maturity of a six year old' on the fixture list. PS second semi final of eurovision tonight - maybe that's the real reason it's off. -
Usually when hearings are delayed it is at the request of the appellant (to allow them more tome to prepare case, availability of witnesses, legal representation etc).

King’s Lynn Stars v Leicester Lions - Thursday 9th May

I had a look at Sportowefakty and they published this date on 25 JANUARY. That's 14, yes FOURTEEN weeks. If this was such a problem for King's Lynn why didn't Buster do something about it in February, or March, or even April? -

That depends on whether it is: a sport with rules designed (as far as possible) to ensure parity of opportunity between the teams or a circus style entertainment run for the benefit of the promoter -
King’s Lynn Stars v Leicester Lions - Thursday 9th May

'Tears & Glory' page 155: "the 1992 King’s Lynn v Reading match was postponed unilaterally by promoter Buster Chapman on August 22. (The Stars would have taken to the track without their top two, Henka Gustafsson and Mark Loram.) A month later the SCB awarded the match 75-0 to Reading, causing much outrage amongst their title rivals. " That's p155 as in 'taking the p155'. -

Why not? The reason for this call-off relates wholly to team strengths which can apply equally to the away team. -

The real outrage is that this seems to be the prerogative of the home team. Visitors are frequently two riders short and nobody bats an eyelid. I imagine Buster will end up running twice a week with 3+ guests in early September in order to fit fixtures in as he'll probably cancel every week now on the basis that Ben Basso's a mechanic down or the start Marshall is ill. -
Absolutely. My recollection is that he'd been dropped by Sheffield (who were bottom of the league) for not being good enough.

Or to look at it another way at least I saved £80 to actually travel there

Musielak got 27+2 in his last two completed fixtures so I think that's a bit harsh. I always thought the key was how well the ex-Panthers adapted to Saddlebow rd, which makes Wojdylo's last performance an encouraging sign for them, but they are still badly short of top end support for Tobias.

Plenty of current(ish) Americans with unusual names Tuff McBride Redmond Bohannon Jamison Dilkey Broc Nicol Slater Lightcap Elloy Meddelin Rheton Todd Then I doubt if there are many Celina, Sabrina, Maja, Patricia, Tegan, Hannah, Sara, Rachelle, Nanna, Jessica, Taya, Charlene or Katie's either

By any chance was his day 2 May 2024?

And worse still: last night we were cheering when a Spires heat leader got beat. And on Monday we'll be hoping Cheetahs no 1 Sam Masters has a poor night. -

Oxford Vs Glasgow KO cup 010524
arnieg replied to Jaizer's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
So far: Prem: Spires drawing decent crowds Champ: well down but hopefully will pick up for league matches NDL: bigger crowd for Chargers v Edin. Academy than Birmingham v Belle Vue - looks like Sunday afternoon is popular -
Flint, Bickley, Gilkes, Rowe, Kemp, Palin and the Thompson twins were supposed to be the golden generation. While some of them are making decent progress they haven't hit the stratospheric heights many of us hoped. And looking at subsequent riders coming up through the youth system none (bar Ashton Boughen) look better prospects than the ones named above.
