Ipswich vs Sheffield 19/8/24
Odds On replied to Fozzie4388's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I like Kelvin but works best when he can "bounce" off of someone on the commentary, think he works better with Chris Louis than Ollie Allen, maybe use Allen in the pits instead of Abbie. -
Ipswich vs Sheffield 19/8/24
Odds On replied to Fozzie4388's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
as expected a easy win for Tigers. Any team losing their top three will more often than not get beat, no matter who your guests are, Batchelor was a poor choice of guest from the get go. Thought the presentation on Eurosport was very poor, in general i enjoy their coverage of it, still don't see what Abbie brings to the show, having someone in the pits interviewing riders needs someone with a rapport with them, ideally a rider or retired rider, currently with Abbie there is no banter, there is no meaningful interviews, no real insight as to what goes on in the pits, Scott Nicholls should be doing what she does. -
Crowd looked slightly down on last year. Track was poor, not bad but not great for a racing spectacle. FIM and the debacle to see who had qualified, just shows how poor of an organisation they are. Really pleased for a GB one two.

Sheffield v Ipswich 8th August
Odds On replied to Arch Stanton's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Good to hear Emil has got out of that relatively unscathed, really horrific accident. When you have a flat out track like Sheffield with a dirt line literally less than a bike length from the fence, there is no room for error or no time to correct the bike, Chris Holder was in the same position earlier on in the meeting. Heat 15 was a classic up until the crash, main thing is Emil and Bomber appear to be okay, which above all else is all that matters. -

Speedway of Nations 2024
Odds On replied to a4poster's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
The only real permanent track in the UK that can hold such an event, for racing it is head and shoulders above any other viable venue. I doubt Belle Vue will be out of pocket to any great degree or if indeed any, the FIM would of been involved financially....why do folk look and try to find the negatives in a event that was well run, entertaining and finished with a win for Team GB...for me a great advert for British speedway. On here i often read about the glory days and how speedway was better in the day, SON is head and shoulders above the best pairs events in those days. -

Poole v Edinburgh Weds 3rd July 2024.
Odds On replied to SteveLyric2's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
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. -

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. -

British Final 2024
Odds On replied to Hackett's topic in Speedway Testimonials & Individual and Shared Events
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?
