full-throttle

the play-offs were won/lost at Coventry. Poole did a job and their reward is a place in the final. Loosing Joonas and Jason to injury didn't help Coventry's cause. Poole gets a lot of stick, some justified, some not, but I bet every EL team wishes they had the management with the balls of Ford and Middleditch when it comes to making changes and bending the rules to suit. I'd like to see Belle Vue win the league as they have been whipping boys for a few years now

AJ wouldn't be a bad start, no GP's to worry about. Chris Harris Jason Garrity Joonas Kylmakorpi Danny King then two FTR riders James Sargeant would benefit from a year in the PL, a good opportunity to earn some £ and gain more track craft

Good Luck to Belle Vue in the Final,

AJ to guest tomorrow, as Zagar has injured himself climbing the rostum at this weekends Golden Helmet meeting in Czech Republic. Sorry forget this is the Aces thead not the Pirates...lol

you've posted this twice now. where is there confirmation that Jason will not be riding on Monday???

R/R? with a team that's carrying injuries? it's very risky to say the least. Perhaps Lindgren is still awaiting his best engine to tun up from Sweden, although why he never brought it back with him, I'll never know.

sent by pm, just in case it's against forum rules

the same as Poland and Denmark, one race night per week, discussion closed

now POOle have finished top the appeal will be successful. If however POOle knock the Bees out of the play off's, the SCB will charge the Bees for not having toilet paper in cubicle 2 on the back straight

Say what you like about 'Bomber', but once again he showed determination and qualified to be a GP rider for 2016. He may struggle on the world stage, but he is a team man who is proud to wear the Union Jack and represent not only himself but his country too

Congratulations to all 14 riders tonight, awful conditions but put on a show. some dodgy decisions by the ref imo, would settle for a similar scoreline tomorrow in bees favour of course.

good call

looked on the bees website and there was no mention of any accident. Just a few lines which ended Abandoned after 5 heats due to curfew – Result does NOT stand Best wishes to Dan,

RIDICULOUS. I and 100 more PLUS Mick Horton attended a meeting a while ago where it was explained that there is no curfew at Brandon Stadium. Once again it's the travelling fans that are let down. Marketed as 30 heats for £15 all the paying public got was 20 heats, the lads from Mildenhall travelled for what, less than 2 heats each. And you wonder why the sport is on it's knees

The big question is, how much? And with regards to a rolling one year lease, the speedway has to be viable for it to continue, so any large increase in rent has to be found from somewhere. As I understand the present situation, speedway is safe until the end of the 2016 season, it's then that a new 12 month lease would be offered. It was also mentioned that there would be 12 months notice should the stadium be sold,

Why don't you put your brain into gear before typing? Do you honestly think Sandhu or any stadium owner would allow an opposition group to held meetings in their stadia? Sandhu want's to sell yet the support group want to keep the stadium as it is. Had a complaint that the locals were unaware of the meeting due to communication issues, but those that attended including the Parish councillor all want the stadium to stay as it is.

why should his decisions as a PROMOTER affect his status as team GB manager. Just how many British Riders did Middlo employ when he had the job?

if all the experts were there too it would be nearer 50k

Good win for NKI, and not an altogether bad result for Tai. 12 point lead now, yes it's still early but looking as good as he did in 2013

Didn't he do the same last year?

Lets be fair, for the second half of the meeting the racing has been a lot closer and more entertaining, Is the track to good to start with and has taken a dozen races to produce the lines we are seeing towards the business end of the meeting? There may have been plenty of passes, but in my opinion the whole spectacle has only started to live up to the hype since the interval

Plenty of passing? Cook and Bomber both got passed because there running in reverse gear, not much more of note

For as long as i can remember tracks have been bladed to allow meetings to continue/start. the less shale on the track the more water it can take, as realistically the water runs off quicker. That's why we get such slick tracks when Sky are in town, any hint of rain and the shale is removed.
