Fancy word for peculiar

Laguta X2, Sayfutdinov, Povaznhy Darkin , Ivanov, gizatulin, Gleb, tarasenko, kulakow, kudriasow comes to mind off the top of my head

Wrong time to post this but Any signings that come to mind? If so, why? Sean Tacey to Arena Essex - seemed more suited to Berwick and Hull etc P.s doesn't have to be your team, suggestions welcome

Good win for Leicester last night. They should have enough to progress.

"Just one match next week- was originally a blank week for rain- offs but Vetlanda v Dackarna has been brought forward to Thursday 13th which is live on Freesports at 6pm. Team line-ups will be known on Tuesday evening." Opole Vs Krakow was off yesterday, glorious sunshine in Poland as well. Probably a back story but couldn't translate sportowefakty

Has Etheridge reached his ceiling? Doesn't seem to have consolidated on the good scores he achieved (initially) after being discarded by Edinburgh.

But lets us not forget his many good scores at the likes of Newport, Rye House Isle of Wight and a memorable 14-5 at Craven Park in 2002 against a well placed Hull.

Should be another cracking night with two rivals going head to head. Berwick have great strength in numbers but Newcastle probably have the best heat leader trio in the PL. If I had to put my neck out, I'd say Berwick to take it just over the 30 races.

Aarnio done not bad for krakow

Falling crowds seems to be rather prevalent nationally sadly. Even the forum is devoid of much debate and positivity. Summers flying though

A year or maybe two before you. Double header Vs Rye House and Newcastle. I think I raised some valid points bj.

£17 for 15 minutes "action", cheap compared to Edinburgh up the road. The limit was further reduced by the promoters, so surely a reduction in admission? Nah feck off, we'll charge an extra £2 on last year. Enjoy what you have today because admission will continue to rise, and the quality will get worse. Of course as always, it will be the fans who will be blamed.

2002 we were defeated by the Sean Wilson/Simon Stead led Sheffield. Less said about the PL meeting later that season.

Berwick should be able to keep it close or better still win. Not the best Edinburgh team I've seen over the years. The fact Berwick could win at ARMADALE on Friday, symbolises to me the continual decrease in the Sport today. Edinburgh 47-43 (Wells to carry the Monarchs home)

I thought the racing was rather mediocre pre the rennovations

The UK before my time had an abundance of top riders. Sometimes in the same team, e.g KL Knights (Crump, Adams) in 2000. Will GP riders fully commit to the demands of an EL season? I have my doubts about that. Dropping down a league minus 16 years, the PL used to attract some of the best upcoming European stars (PUK, Zagar, Kylmikorphi, Janusz Kolodzeij). I don't think British Speedway should be held to ransom too bring back for e.g Woffinden, Hancock and Zagar etc. Our glory days are over for now, maybe they will come back.... someday?

Great race especially considering it is from Wroclaw.

Started very well on Friday night for the "green lions". Could be a future world champion imo.

Sad if it comes to pass

Great to see Grigory Laguta return, hardly looks as if he has been away.

I agree with col on this point As for worst field? 2004 would take some beating

Workington have a great race track never seen a poor meeting there.

I'm not sure even the masters of Berwick's propaganda network, can sell the current crop to the fans. Another winter of: cutbacks, reduced points limit and a team with no quality rider in quite a few locations. For £17 a go, pass.

I think British speedway generally is overpriced for what it actually offers. That being said every once in a while you see a great meeting.

Decent value tbf
