emil had been passed

he left himself vulnerable on the outside. he should have backed off for his own safety

emil should have backed off

there’s no clearer definition of ‘prime cause of the stoppage’ than knocking another rider off

does pearson play the affable moron on purpose or does it come naturally

doyle needs to know when to come off the gas

red blue white yellow. dull

cameras seem a long way from the action tonight

rolled his way to victory

Whilst I’m sure everyone who can remember them would love to see the good old days back of the 1980’s it sadly ain’t going to happen. I for one just feel fortunate for the opportunity to go and see live speedway again. There just isn’t the rider pool or frankly money available to provide the quality of racing you quite clearly desire. however, at least there is now the RS programme in place and we are for once starting to develop some grass roots talent. Why are you not willing to put your hand in you pocket to give to the sport now to build a better future? Sorry for singling out your post but you do tend to bleat on about the unfairness of this and that and picking out the holes rather than looking at the positives. What with the last year or so we are lucky still to have this many clubs in existence.

is he getting better or is the league getting weaker

hot shot scotty scoring a few more than he did guesting for ipswich against lynn at foxhole

what are the rules if two riders touch the tapes simultaneously? not saying that’s what’s happened

relegation 7 pointer not to be missed

more passing tonight than at the national speedway stadium this year

think the track is riding better with the natural watering it’s had today which is being held in the surface by the overcast conditions. much more opportunity to get around the outside which wasn’t the case in previous meetings

best racing foxhole has seen all year

the likely crowd restrictions were known a long time ago. could wolves not have looked to open up access to the back straight?

Let's sign craig cook on a 28 day deal before we go to belle vue on Monday. 15 pt max tonight surely is sufficient to take a punt

were there covid police in attendance? they did seem to be going OTT with Covid precautions. guess they are paranoid about getting closed down

exactly. the likes of king and heeps can only ride one way and it’s not round the inside...

Anyone know why they didn’t water the track at all during the meeting last night? Was that the case for other home meetings?

gate positions can make a huge difference in speedway. it’s one of the aspects that makes the sport interesting. At Ipswich last night Gate 4 was a bit a graveyard. At many tracks it’s very difficult to get across from Gate 4 so it makes the programming of gate positions important if the format is uneven, especially combined with the way the track develops through the meeting. Just my opinion but I think Gates 1&3 will be the preference for most teams this season and that’s to do with advantage they more often than not give you early on in the meeting, not just heat 1. I think there could be mileage in allowing the team that fall behind selection of gate positions in later heats, like one poster said in order to try to keep the racing competitive. I’m sure that statistical analysis would show gate 1 trumps gate 4. By the time you get to the last heat it tends to be less about gate positions as riders get dialled into the track.

I see both away sides won the toss and opted for 1&3 in the opening heats. Certainly might have helped Kings Lynn stay in touch and hold back their tactical ride to Heat 14. I also see that the Polish league has a different gates schedule, with more alternating between gates for consecutive heats.
