Official declarations from when he arrived until the seasons end had him marked as “* assessed due to one of the following. Est MA older than prev 2 seasons.” https://britishspeedway.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/08/p23_issue_26.pdf https://britishspeedway.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2023/10/p23_issue_34.pdf From 2023 rules. 011.4.2 Guest Rider (G) C. the guest must be in a current team declaration and have an established MA.

Why would they do that (trolling)? Don’t know what they get out of it.

If he wanted an all Aussie team he wouldn’t have replaced Max with Dan.
-
In other words we need a gater. I’m happy with Tate if he’s the racer people say he is.
-
It’s got Brady in the team but people said he’s banned. Confused.

The unpalatable truth for us fans is that people don’t like speedway. I’ve listed the lengths the Aces have gone to both currently and in the past and I’ve seen first hand the apathy towards the sport when I’m banging the drum with friends, family & colleagues. Our support is literally dying out and something needs to change to make it more appealing. The meeting on Monday was one of the best I’ve seen in over 50 years of watching the sport but you could have it on a loop in the Arndale or wherever and it would make little to no difference to the long term support. It’s a worry, a big worry.

There was more passing in that one meeting than all of our six away league matches put together so not good TV for the modern day speedway fan with little gate ‘n’ go to warm their cockles. Must admit I enjoyed it.

Well that’s that question answered.

Anders Rowe was on the RS list at the start of the 2021 season. Ipswich signed Drew Kemp as their RS and Anders as their other reserve. Anders guested for Sheffield in place of their RS Josh Bates and when I queried it stating Anders was no longer an RS, they said he was on the list at the start so he stays an RS. Anders average was 5.49 which dwarfed Bates’ figure (He finished on 2.67). His paid 6 secured a narrow 2 point win for the Tigers. It could have been another of those Belle Vue/Bates things and Edwards might well no longer be an RS. https://britishspeedway.co.uk/2021-rising-stars/ https://britishspeedway.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2021/10/p21_issue_10.pdf https://britishspeedway.co.uk/2021-rider-statistics/ https://britishspeedway.co.uk/21results/sheffield_01.07.21_res.pdf

Anybody saying a speedway meeting is just 15 minutes of entertainment is simply trolling or just simple.
-
Is that correct? I’d have thought Ipswich & Sheffield were better at home. Any stats people out there to confirm?
-
Maybe try £14 admission and kids free for professional 500cc no brakes speedway. The place would be packed……..wouldn’t it?
-
Let us know your master plan or better still put your plan into action and take over the NSS, you’ll make a killing.
-
Like discussing Belle Vue speedway on a speedway forum. Do you go around the other sport/entertainment forums telling them you’re not going?
-
Must admit I’m old school and just enjoy each individual race. If every race was great and we or the Lions won 75-15 I’d be happy. I know modern fans prefer the gate ‘n’ go with a close score but it just doesn’t do it for me.

Family ticket 2 adults & 2 U16 £45. Have your tea at home before venturing out to the speedway if you don’t like the prices or use the van outside. Fail on your part due to bad planning. Fact.

Is should say, if he feels he can give it a go then he has to wait until his next UK fixture to try it. Trying it abroad will not be tolerated by the UK even if there is a gap of nearly three weeks between fixtures. Give your head a wobble and stop trying to make an issue when one isn’t there. You do know where we now stand in the pecking order don’t you? It’s like the Isle of Wight saying Emil is banned if he doesn’t host the next meat raffle.
-
Good to see the SCB confirm Brady’s injury and that the paperwork is in order. Now can you stop all this silliness BSF and wish him a speedy recovery.
-
The (R)Aces won’t get anything away in this gate ‘n’ go league. Still, you got the win so that’s the main thing though I can’t help thinking an entertaining night would get the turnstiles clicking and help you in the long run. Big picture and all that. We all would have spent over £150 on admission, food etc and would visit ten times or more a season with Owlerton being so close, not now.

Source please.

Using the word if indicates that if it isn’t your van then you are not responsible and in control. Is that correct?
-
With the Jason ruling no rider needs suffer penalty if they are to miss a meeting anymore. Jason‘s mode of transport suffered a technical fault so he couldn’t complete his onward journey. All riders need to do now is say that their mode of transport, a van suffered a technical fault so they couldn’t complete their onward journey.

The boneheaded lot that run this sport have amended a perfectly adequate rule for one that now favours guests. That necessary evil of the sport is being implemented unnecessarily. All this due to the fact they removed the long term injury clause from the 75% rule. Unbelievable! We’ve all seen teams over the years decimated by injury and taking to the track with only one member of the top five in place and rest full of guests. Should this happen at play off time and be long term injuries then the plumb event of the year would be (another) farce. Might not happen you say, don’t run your sport where you implement rules that see you crossing your fingers in the hope you don’t become a laughing stock, I say. The other crazy scenario we now have is riders from Belle Vue and Kings Lynn could get injured in Poland in the same race in August and one team could sign a replacement, the other not. Thank god nobody is watching anymore.
