You could introduce betting on other aspects of Speedway. Typically the start time of the first heat as against the start time advertised in the programme. King's Lynn would get good odds as a 19:30 Proggy start drifts towards 8pm and past it. Also' at what heat does the 'sun break' occur. These odds could be paired up with the first appearance of Phil's hosepipe! Enjoy 🤑

What will 2026 UK speedway bring?
Lefty replied to Lionsman66's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Too true it was invariably a 90 mins drive on a Sunday from Wolves due to it being like Coventry, very hard to overtake! Even More time has to be added if a Pub crawl of 'B'Leek is on the agenda. Great scenery though. -
.... and so many great memories Dudley Wood provided. From my strong Wolves perspective, the joy of seeing Ivor Brown beaten, thru to Bruce, Eric and not missing out Bernie! are priceless. A very sad loss indeed. A disgrace that "The Wembley of the Midlands" became a housing estate.

Is it time for Royal Mail to loose the "Royal" tag, or should they be ordered to use "Royal Replacement" or perhaps "Guest Delivery" ?

The Rider with the best style of riding.
Lefty replied to Youhave2minutes's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Certainly agree on John Cook & Bobby 'Showtime' Ott. For armchair riders, I considered Gote Nordin & Bengt Jansson set the bench mark for Leigh Adams to join it a few years later. -
Fraser Bowes scored 14 for World Team @ Auburn, Ca last night!

All four Premier teams tonight are using r/r. A sad state to be in.

Woffy could always write WC after his name. 🤔

Riders are no longer considered assets of clubs

Perhaps BSPL should be LBSP to cover there lack of transparency (again!) -

I don't know, but I suspect we know who will be in charge of the 'over-watering' 🤔😀 -

Speedway On Tv And The Internet In 2025
Lefty replied to racers and royals's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
One off World Finals upto !994, then Grand Prix format started. -
Its good that this sort of thing takes place. One recent example was:- (Dave) "Parrys International Tours Ltd" sponsorship of Wolverhampton Wolves.

Totally agree with your post. Especially regarding phone contact with Dave F. I always share a laugh with him when I ring to renew my loft insulation for another 12 months!

But only on Bank Holidays: - 5 points in the Morning meeting. - 5 points in the Evening meeting. 🧐
