Odds On

how many races per rider

Wishing you a speedy and full recovery young man...I can only imagine you are going through the ringer right now, but try and stay positive.

Just the usual gate and go Poole track, shame really as soon as the riders went looking for any resemblance of grip or dirt it just wasn't there.

rumbled!

any bookies taking bets on which heat the blue line will appear?

it was great to watch a so called throttle jockey in action....and to top it off he's British as well. Great meeting and a great advert for British speedway.

ruined by a stupid rule...no way should Nicholls of been excluded in the super heat, there was at least one other who moved as well...

absolutely no problem with the format or venue....try stopping to find fault with something that is a credit to British speedway.

so just how many teams in the SON have four out and world class riders?

its funny because I came away from last nights meeting thinking we had a good balance of British riders right now...some really promising youngsters and also some "seniors" for them to learn off......when you think of some of the doom and gloom around the sport, thought last night was quite refreshing.

any reason why Wright kicked out at Bewley after the race had finished?

People moaning about the venue, by far the best we have and is a fair track for all riders...was going to use the phrase more lines but that's awkward in speedway!...give me a meeting at Belle Vue than anywhere else in the country, its a racers track and not just a gate and go. Also lets not forget the history of the British final, it wasn't always a spectacle at Coventry, far from it, crowds were good but that was mainly due to speedway being in its prime....we now have a track that provides entertainment, lets not forget that because above all else it's the main ingredient the sport needs.

Looking just at the Premiership league, I fail to see just how some of these clubs can make it pay, fair play if they do but when you hear what some of the riders are on there's only way it is going to end. Some of the teams owners are business men and may see speedway as just an expensive hobby but as a business model speedway is a good way to lose money! Many teams chase the golden goose to lay the golden egg, but the feed for the goose has a huge cost and probably not sustainable over a period of time..

Freddie over 10 @ 2.05...."IT'S CHRISTMAS".

Has the paint dried yet?

Just a general observation and possibly the big white elephant in the room....how the hell do the Brummies afford Freddie Lindgren, if/when he scores a maximum, that will cost nearly half the gate receipts on its own!

Could Freddie be about to do the biggest u-turn in the history of the sport and sign for Ippo?

Probably get shot down for this. Abi brings nothing to the show, no in depth or history of the sport...for all of her knowledge you may as well have a rider doing what she does, better knowledge and will be able to give more in depth interviews with riders and links...when Oxford had 3 riders on the track, she hasn't the charisma or relationship with a rider/team to ask and joke about it. Janowski, lets all be honest he isn't going to be a cheap asset to Oxford, Looks way off of it for a GP rider. Lawson, impressed me, riding at #2 is one of the hardest positions in a team, fully deserved his heat 15 appearance. Tungate, a real battler but not sure he's an out and out #1. Track was far to slick, devoid of entertainment which resulted in a poor advert for the sport Drone shot, atrocious and needs binning until it actually works.

Thank you...that is great and is a massive help...thank you to everyone who has helped, probably seem like pointless and annoying questions to some!!

Thank you. Do you have to enter a code or something similar?

well this gets murkier!!..so i have a smart tv, if i enter the BSN into a search engine - is it as easy as that...obviously i would subscribe to the channel.

Thank you for the replies, appreciate them.

I'm thinking about subscribing to BSN...is it worth it and is it any good?.....also how do you stream it to your TV?...many thanks in advance.

Never knew it existed but a little gem!

what a great little site for stats etc, thank you and very much appreciated.
