just got back from Oxford, i think the rain had a say in the result, obviously Rohan needs to get going, but Brennan most likely got more than Janowski would. for Leicester heat 2 was interesting, i think Kemp made the mistake of looking for Gilkes early on and Kileen was able to get both of them

after signing for Leicester you mean?

but favouring the 'top' riders with inside gates

probably Tai

i go to Warsaw for 5 nights, airbnb and a whole apartment to myself, and i got in relatively early for flights so much better price than they're at now, and it'll still probably be cheaper than the weekend in Manchester when you factor in all the other things like fuel, parking, socialising. I do a lot of socialising in Warsaw but still much cheaper, and ok i get a lift to Heathrow so no airport parking etc, but this country has a habit of just overcharging on everything

Going into the city after Belle Vue is totally different to Cardiff. Before and after the GP at Cardiff everywhere was surrounded by speedway supporters, you knew where a lot of friends and groups would be, with Manchester there won't be any 'set places' like Walkabout where it would get taken over on the Friday and Saturday nights, a lot of people won't even bother going into the city after BV, and those that do will be so spread out it will be totally diluted and not feel like there's a big event on. Cardiff was the closest we had to a Polish GP around the city, but BV has the track. Wroclaw and Warsaw you KNOW there's something going on with speedway, in Manchester you won't

when the tapes on gate 1 go up so much before gate 4 it's to be expected

wonder if it'll open up a space for Jesse Mustonen

WSRA Celebration of Speedway - Hertfordshire Zoo 2025 https://flic.kr/s/aHBqjC5XWB

but if Belle Vue purchase the rights to run the event it will be up to them what they charge

there might be a number of people on this forum that would be interested in the answer though

you're wrong if you're prepared to look away from the chain hotels

so the league bond plus £40,000 for the foam fence, big ask unless there's someone involved with very deep pockets

i still think Poland are on payback for the wildcard situation

IF planning is granted don't the club have some infrastructure already built waiting?

and Plymouth womens team won at AFC Wimbledon women today (2-1, 97th min winner), first time Wimbledon women have lost at Plough Lane in quite some time

i scoured airbnb and booking.com when dates were released

i've got a B&B in Manchester with parking for 3 nights for under £200

i just get discovery+ for the speedway season, cancel when all meetings are done

which is what WBD prefer you to do

and will the semi finals be in the same week as the final?

wonder if that's because of the backlash over GP wildcards

as well as keeping costs down as infratructure will all be in place. not sure how much longer WBD will carry on though

can't see that happening while WBD have the rights, if they won't pay for Cardiff there's no way they'll do a London stadium with all the extra meetings/surveying/money

who knows if they are even allowed to run more than one team, stadium owners might not allow it.
