SPEEDY69

Xc shows 4.9mm of rain between 10am and 7 pm but as its showers they could hit or miss, and that's not a lot of rain either, 1/5th of an inch over 9 hours.

A speedway event at Wembley would be great! The area is not the best, nothing like Cardiff but you can get to it/away from it quite easily. The marketing would be everything though and it could fill the place.

Call it off

It says on my forecast between 2pm and 7pm there'll be 1.1 millimetres of rain in Glasgow, no rain thereafter. However, it's their business and their risk so they have the right to decide. It's a real shame for anyone who might have planned travel though.

Didn't they win the league handsomely in 2021?

That's exactly my point, I don't think they're allowed.

Is it about the Premiership Pairs - announced earlier as a one-off event to be held at Leicester.

I don't see why they can't legitimately call it off if they have a depleted team, on agreement with the opposition & Mr Morris. I'd much rather see a meeting with two full teams.

Indeed. Jeremy Doncaster said in an interview recently that he only ever had three speedway bikes in total at any one time but successfully rode in GB, Poland and Italy/Germany without issue. Of course they'll say they need this and that in the hope it is funded for them.

You always need a bit of luck. I'd also say it makes it a bit boring because apart from the tired old wildcards it's the same faces each time.

I always find xcweather to be the most accurate, got that site from Racers & Royals on here.

A good sized crowd can look small there as it has a high capacity and the back straight stand holds quite a few. Probably still around 2-2.5k there.

Ha but no. Superb for Oxford so far this year and beat Doyle last night a couple of times as well. I expect once the summer comes/tracks become slick his form will dip but unbelievable really to have a 30 year riding career. Holder cost the Tigers victory tonight but it shows that UK speedway is pretty demanding.

Using the same equipment as last year, not bad for nearly 46 eh?

The amount of rain is tiny though, less than the water cart would put down

Not guaranteed though, just look at last season, 15pt max one night, 7 the next.

Should be a straightforward home win with no-ne able to touch Doyle. Musielak didn't do well at Foxhall last season but Holder has had some success there. As others have said the Ellis/King match up should favour King. I predict a 51-39 win for the Witches.

Musielak only scored 5 there last year so not sure they'll miss him much.

Douglas would've been the form pick.

Don't you mean Colin?

Belle Vue are a good side though, saw that at foxhall on Thursday. If you aren't making starts it makes it tricky.

So Zagar then?

There is a bus stop about 10 minutes walk away on Bell Lane (there is a short cut through the trees & houses but if you don't know where you're going best to stick to the road) which is the No.66 service which goes to/from the town and the railway station.

Belle Vue the better side tonight and Bewley is still not firing fully. Kurtz loves foxhall and Lidsey impressed. For Ipswich, Doyle was beaten just the once but King was the weak link given the long tail, although Hume did have one great ride. Was freezing though!

I didn't have one in those days and rode everywhere. Bradford and back in a day was the longest journey to speedway for me, 4 hours each way. Always been a biker but got a car when I got a wife
