First, hope that Worrall is OK after a very nasty crash. From the gate it didnt look like Kildemand bothered to turn and just kept going staright. I thought he'd be excluded but the ref obviously saw different with all four. The crashes and the new interval race for the kids meant a drawn out meeting by EWR standards, but a decent night's racing. Good to see Lambo scoring well, you can see what it means to him, hope it continues. Any news on Worrall?

Teams taken from the Berwick website: Scorpions: Steve Worrall, Zaine Kennedy, Declan Kennedy, Connor Mountain, Jake Allen, Luke Harrison, Simon Lambert Bandits: Peter Kildemand, Sam Hagon, Danyon Hume, Drew Kemp, Craig Cook, Tom Spencer, Jack Smith Berwick are using Freddy Hodder on Saturday. Looking forward to another good nights racing at the EWR and hopefully some league points for Scunny and decent shot at the bonus for Saturday.

Not the aggregate win I predicted 🤐 but a terrific meeting none the less. Luke Harrison was superb value once again, a great paid 19. On heat 8, Lambert for me got Killeen on the line. Apparently the transponder said differently. I was told the wire under the track wasn't lined up with the white line? 🤔 All in all a good win on the night against one of the more fancied teams in the league.

Looking forward to another trip to the EWR. I think "we" (I've adopted Scunny) can do it. I'm going for a last heat aggregate decider. 😆

And he said MJJ indicated he would stay if he was happy. Well clearly, he wasn't happy and he's left. When he said that I thought, "he's just realised what he's said and how that sounds now that he's left".

Mick Bell

The end of the year will come and go and there will be nothing announced. He means well (I think) and fair play he's kept Brum going, but the reason that people don't go and watch Speedway in Brum has nothing to do with the word "Speedway" being omitted from the fans replica team shirts. His bit about the motorway service station and people not knowing what he was wearing was comical..... Its because year in year out he builds a crap team. Its poor management, it's the same in any business. No doubt, he runs a successful business, a world he understands, but when you listen to him, its clear he knows very little about running a Speedway Team. A little bit like when we had Mick Horton. If the team was winning, or at least has a semi decent chance of winning at home, more people would go. And in a city the size of Birmingham, there are plenty of other things to go and spend your money on. I appreciate its difficult though as Brum are always left with the riders no one else wants, and as a result all ride out of position. EDIT: You compare Tolley with Peter Facenna later on in the Podcast, which was a great listen, and they are worlds apart. A person who clearly knows what he is doing and has the right team surrounding him.

Best thing to do, as I do, is keep him on block. Lots of others do as well. You'll find its a better Forum.

Yeah, I can understand people feeling like that when reading it. I just like it straight, and I think that paragraph sums up the feeling. Troy might have a reason, though he is a repeat offender of this kind of performance and fans get tired of it, particularly when you've paid your money to watch a supposedly decent number one at work.

I don't think its unprofessional. Tell it like it is / was. Unless he gives the supporters some sort of explanation, that is what we witnessed.

Enjoyable night at EWR. Despite the score line, some decent racing. Sun delay apart, the meeting ran well. Batchelor was a disgrace. There was a good contingent of Worky fans and they didn't deserve that from their number one. Thought Luke Harrison was good value, great rider to watch.

Looking forward to the meeting, hopefully a Scunny win. 👍

And here we have the answer to riders picking numbers without suits on. https://sportowefakty.wp.pl/zuzel/1186923/zuzel-w-gp-sa-rowni-i-rowniejsi-zmarzlik-z-kara-pieciu-zawodnikow-uniknie-grzywn Zmarzlik has to abide by the actual rules, while the other riders have an unwritten set that Morris applies.

Exactly what I do, always a highlight seeing what he has to say and how he delivers it. Tolley, and Rogers, are everything that is wrong with Birmingham. Fair enough, Tolley has kept the club going, but they are both clueless when it comes to Speedway. Anyone could see that when the team was built it wasn't going to be any match for Ipswich, Sheffield, BV, Leicester and probably KL. Exactly the same with Oxford, you could see that as seven riders together that was a poor team and the problem there is Schroeck. That said, between Schroeck and Tolley I reckon they could take charge of Lublin and even with their current team make them bottom of the league. If it meant the Bees could come back and Tolley was in charge with Schroeck as TM I'd rather we stayed shut.

I thought the track held up well. I can't remember the last time I saw a meeting and the track maintenance didn't happen until after heat 7. The speed the meeting played out at was the best I've been to in a long time. Racing was good and if it's all better than that in the evening then I'll come all season. I was going to be a regular at Lynn as I'm about an hour from each of you. Great value for money with a basic race card. You have a new fan.

Very enjoyable first trip Scunthorpe. Great racing, 100x better than what I've been watching at Leicester and the meeting was run superbly well. I will be back. 👍

Cheers 👍

Cheers 👍

Coming to this, looking forward to my first trip to the EW Raceway having recently moved to Lincolnshire. Can I pay by card or do I need some cash?

Hi. If I buy an e-ticket, does anyone know if you have to print it out or can it remain on your phone? Thanks.

I sat in the stand last night and said "who will he sack this week, I bet its Kemp". And sure enough, it was Kemp.

Couldn't help yourself Anyhow, I think I've found something for you to moan about, maybe on X to SGP / Discovery directly. No Pit Cams

I have the APP. I think it's wonderful so I'll enjoy all of it. Thank you for having a pop at a name I decided on some 20 odd years ago and really pushing that one to try and shame me. Troll...Bully. ;-) So I haven't changed it......sorry. I'll hold you to calling people out for their opinion. Cheers. (no need for you to reply to this one....unless you can't stand not having the last word)

Oh dear. Like I said, chill out Iain. Try not to moan and enjoy the season ahead.

Don't try and ridicule me Iain Brown. What you're accusing me of makes you look exactly the same. I've been a member of this forum for a long time, I know how to use it. I don't hide behind the name, that was what I decided back in 2005, not to hide. I've read your posts for a long time, I just don't see much positive from you. It makes me wonder why you attend meetings or watch the SGP. It must be a waste of your time if you don't enjoy what is on offer. It's not bullying or trolling, that would suggest I've been going at you for a prolonged time. It's an observation. You moaned on both X and here and I happened to see them after each other. Chill out, try and enjoy the sport.
