Zagar didn't do Scotland very often in his PL days , so that's no surprise . Still be a decent meeting though , think i'll pop through
-
Stick with tradition , Sheffield is a great venue for the PLRC
-
Of course we will , nobody will tell me where I can or cant go to watch speedway . If the Tigers are riding , I will try my best to get there to support them , whether the promotions are talking to each other or not .
-
I believe I read somewhere on this or another relevant thread that James Cockle was ineligible because of previous PL experience . So if Cockle ( who is actually British ) cant be considered why does anyone think Mitchell Davey can ?
-
We beat them the last time they came to open our season
-
Blobby , to my knowledge , hasn't been spotted recently with a tumbler at Ashfield's speedway office door . So how can he know this ? Have him and Noel Edmonds got our club's phones tapped ? Has Danny Ayres been buying a load of new and expensive clobber from the track shop ? Or has Blobby developed a Celtic supporter's sized chip on his shoulder because our club , in the words of Harry Enfield , is considerably richer , CONSIDERABLY RICHER , than his . Poor old Mitchell Davey has to have a bush tucker trial in the Armadale car park because of the wages he's been offered .

Would it be bending the rules somewhat if you discovered an Australian rider had married a Scottish lassie and although had plenty of PL experience , though not quite reached even a 4 point average in about 5 seasons of riding PL , if a club could sneak him in at number 7 and hope nobody notices .

James will get a great reception as most of us realised the criticism of his starting was blown out of all proportion . This will be a wonderful opening fixture and as it's Easter weekend there should be a big crowd for it .

Scunthorpe Scorpions 2016?
Paulco replied to Paul Johnson's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
No thank you , i'll be leaving Newport by train on the Sunday morning , then it will be change at Bristol for one to Doncaster and then change again there for one to Scunthorpe . Taxi from the station to the Premier Inn , check in and a bite to eat in the pub there , before taxi to the track , so the more time I have - the better . So 6-30 is fine by me . -
John Louis was about 29 when he started speedway , and he had quite a decent career .
-
Would think that was a bit high . All the big PL meetings last season , Somerset , Peterborough and Sheffield had £20 admission , so that plus either £30 or £35 for a two day ticket would be nearer the mark .

Scunthorpe Scorpions 2016?
Paulco replied to Paul Johnson's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Excellent to have an away fixture again on the way back from Cardiff , and where better to round off that particular weekend . -
Cardiff Saturday 9th July 2016
Paulco replied to racers and royals's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
We're staying in Newport again this year , far cheaper than Cardiff and only a 15 minute train journey away . -
Can we not just go there and enjoy it for what it is , a weekend of brilliant Premier League speedway . Somebody has to host it and where better than one of the best speedway tracks in the country . Who cares if Peterborough are seeded , after all the biggest majority of the crowd will be from the hosting club and they want to see their club in it .

2 nights in the Holiday Inn Express £200 , ouch , but it's more comfortable than camping . That's it booked now anyway .
-
They were truly awful , and with the queue at the bar , you couldn't avoid them
-
There's obviously a lot of head scratching over rider availability , as long as we get them before March
-
You've spelt it for us , genius
-
Some kind person has put heat 15 away to Sheffield in 1991 and home against Cradley Heath heat 15 in 1992 , on the official Glasgow web page . I was lucky enough to be at both those meetings , both are well worth enjoying again
-
Me too , I enjoy my pints and banter with the Emmerdales , in the bar after the meeting win , lose or draw . So I wont be cutting my nose off to spite my face . Most people will make their own mind up about whether they go or not without being swayed by toeing the party line . There's a wee pub in Bathgate I like going to when I get off the train , and there's a night at the speedway and some friendly banter with good company . Why should I give that up ?
-
Our team has been named for weeks , nothing to talk about as far as we are concerned . So the only interest we have is the ongoing mission to find a number 7 by our nearest and dearest
-
Maybe they'll have a good old fashioned " vultures " race just before heat 1 of the Spring Trophy
-
well yeah that's true . I'll leave your lot alone and go back tormenting the Moanarchs
-
I know it's only January , but I shudder to think what state the track is in , it hasn't stopped raining for about 6 weeks . Pre season training starts today , lunchtime meet up in the Horseshoe Bar
-
He could well turn out to be a decent rider . If it's planning for the future , then so be it . Surely that is a better way to go than go with Klindt , who wont increase his average much , if at all , and would most probably miss a good few meetings .
