King's Lynn V The Wolves 25/08/16
tellboy replied to Bagpuss's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
No number 1's are unbeatable even on their own tracks.The only one really that improved their form last night was Huckenbeck.Maybe Lambert got a little more than expected last night -
Belle Vue V King's Lynn Wed 24th Aug
tellboy replied to mdmc82's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Bloody hell,can't quite believe that result.That too with Schlein and Batchelor under-performing.Having said that the whole Belle Vue team did bar Jacobs.Awesome nights for Lindgren,Lambert and Huckenbeck. To be fair to Gavan he is only saying what many people thought at the start of the season,that Poole were favourites which was backed up by the bookies also. Hopefully get some views from people who were there tonight on just how bad Belle Vue were or were King's Lynn on it for a change. -
King's Lynn V The Wolves 25/08/16
tellboy replied to Bagpuss's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
It probably wasn't on there yesterday morning.Didn't have time to look,some of us still have to go to work . I too like things done in order,which to be fair the website has always done it in order,apart from the Tai bit. But over the last few weeks/months people have been moaning about that.Because when the Young Stars ride on Wednesday they rightly get the exposure first, but people were moaning why the main team news isn't on there before the Young Stars have rode. -

Now then SL,the meeting preview for the Belle Vue match was definately on the Kings Lynn website last night Anyway i see Robson is guesting for Howarth,wasn't he not allowed to guest for someone earlier in the season as he had an EL average or something or am i imagining things. -
Swindon V Poole Elb Monday 22/08/16 Sky Meeting.
tellboy replied to Steve Shovlar's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Well deserved points for Swindon.Poole to be honest didn't deserve anything out of it.If the ref was consistent he would have pulled the race back that Andersen jumped instead of just Doyle's and Tungate's. Buzz rightly excluded imo,he was behind,and as many people say the throttle works both ways. -
Simple answer would be no for many people.

Out of those 4 i would say only Schlein and Batchelor are riding well below their capability. -

Good thinking,this has been going before.The Poole management are not always first to think of things you know -
Wolves V Lakeside 22.8.16 Return Of The Champ
tellboy replied to stevebrum's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Think Woofy is used to pressure.It doesn't matter where he rides he will score plenty.Wolves to get 56pts. -
What Is Going On At Leicester
tellboy replied to weatherwatcher's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
The only thing i can see on their website is the re-arrangement dates.Bank holiday Monday v Poole,Sept 1st v Swindon and Sept 10th v Kings Lynn. -
Thought all bikes were 500cc.Yes and young more inexperienced drivers have to pay through the nose.
-
Lets not forget what the EL clubs have had from Sky.A £50,000 bond sounds more drastic than it seems,they may pay only about 1% of that.Why would the insurance be any dearer for each race.I thought as the riders in the PL are apparently inferior the insurance would be dearer.
-
I would think stadium rents pretty similar,electric same,cost of food to buy same,most workers are volunteers afaik.All i can think in reality is the wages. You are known for thinking nothing of the PL and are so blinkered in favour of the EL.Whereas i have seen both sides and feel the PL is better value for our money(supporters).I have seen nothing in the EL to suggest otherwise.Now if we were to get back to the eighties then i would feel different.That was value for money in the top league,plus plenty of characters in the sport and lots of banter.
-
I was simply basing my opinions on the racing side of things.Where the PL is definately not a rip off compared to EL. surely all costs are the same bar the riders wages?
-
Yes but why would it be a rip off if the racing is the same if not better.The EL is overpriced don't you think?
-
Quality of racing is similar,if not better than EL league racing imo.
-
Happy with Harris and Kerr also,didn't think of Harris as guest as thought he was struggling with an injury.But he never seems to turn any bookings down.Shame some EDR's don't do the same. Can't be there tomorrow as work gets in the way,but hope Bailey makes a good fist of his 1st EL outing.
-
I heard that wasn't paid for,maybe why a few riders didn't turn up.
-
Thought there had been 2 now,not 100% sure though.
-
They ride tonight,Lynn are tomorrow.
