There's also a belief that the 'bug' can congregate around stadium floodlights in certain areas of Norfolk and cause major impact to work performance there as well.

King's Lynn v Wolves 05/05/22
Lefty replied to Bald Bloke's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
No home fixture next Thursday.! Could have been scheduled for then? -
And a free set of crayons with every copy!
-
Is Chris Harris on stand by? He's at Belle Vue on the lunchtime!

Dear BSPL, PLEASE let Matej Zagar ride for the Aces. As a Wolves fan my view is: if you don't I'm perilously close to not bother going to watch the Aces at Wolverhampton in a so called Premier League with bugger all teams in it and little to no credibility. Historically you as a management team have devalued the KOC to extinction, damn near finished Speedway as a team sport in the UK with no team variety, doubling up and excessive use of R/R. Stop shuffling the deck chairs on this sinking ship. In the 70's I went to over five meetings a week, now its getting closer to 5 a month! Have rules that will actually get spectators in!

King's Lynn v Ipswich. League Cup 25/4/22
Lefty replied to Bald Bloke's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Yet another new rule book change that does absolutely nothing to please existing spectators or likely to get any new customers through the turnstiles. -
Best news I've read today. 'It's A Wonderful Life'.... Bedford Falls comes to Britain via a journey along the Mississippi.
-
So ten quid for two races and probably got to buy a new proggy for the rerun of the meeting? It starts to make politicians look honest!
-
IMDB suggests the Speedway scenes were filmed at Walthamstow Stadium.
-
Bet the noise made you cry? ..... or could you watch it behind glass then?
-
I'm thinking Bob Dylan credited Abraham Lincoln with that! Also consider..... If at first you don't succeed... give up. (Homer Simpson) or If at first you don't succeed... repeat posting it (Johnny Gustix) Also to repeat... for me its: Belle Vue v Oxford 1963... Oh What A Night

Birmingham v Poole Championship. 13/04/22
Lefty replied to Steve Shovlar's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
I was driving on the A41 Black Country route near West Brom just after 2pm and the deluge was such that the force on the windscreen made it feel as though it was pushing the car backwards. -
'DIDDY' David Hamilton wished Oxford Speedway all the best on his BOOM Radio slot this afternoon. Thumbs up to him and to everyone at Cowley this evening.

Too true... Loved seeing riders learning to ride the Shay... and having pre & post beer in the 'Three Pigeons' is one of the greatest ticks on a shale lovers 'Bucket List'.
-
As you travel from West Brom and move closer to Wolverhampton, the nickname undergoes further name change / modification. Some might be considered printable!
-
Is that the same Peterborough that are riding at Poole tonight without him?
-
Are the Coventry riders Chris Harris & Adam Roynon any relation to the riders of the same names who rode for Birmingham two days ago at Wolverhampton? Or even the Chris Harris (Berwick) & Adam Roynon (Redcar).......

Wolves v Brummies (Past & Present) 28th March 2022

Wolves v Brummies (Past & Present) 28th March 2022
Lefty replied to Beowulf's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
The line-ups make me think its more suited to be called a Tribute Night featuring "Luke Becker & The Double-Ups" performing with "Chris Harris & The Guests"..... with the guests tbc! Had it been Coventry then the band could be "Chris Harris & The Selecter". -
And even some of the posh Cradley gals had them as well
-
Couldn't Chris Harris have been a guest #1???
-
As someone who has driven / travelled to away matches for over 50 years following the Wolves; I have reached a breaking point where the Motorway infrastructure and constant lane closures etc, combined with Speedway promoters destroying team support / allegiance does not inspire me to book online at an extra cost to get a car park facility that I can't guarantee getting there to take up. I find the Speedway promoters' inability to delight the customer amazing. My mates don't.... they stopped travelling years ago and now cherry pick the home meetings as well. Yes I'm a "pay at the gate Dinosaur"who doesn't care for the new trend of needing a 'blue card' to get two quid off at Edinburgh, a mobile phone App to go to a Cardiff GP or to get caught full price for an old programme with an insert! What's next.... a centre green presenter with a monkey???? Now that would give me a hissy fit
-
Thank you all for this information. Looks like a revisit to Cowley will not figure in my speedway plans for this year.

Can we have special 'Chris Harris' and 'Scott Nicholls' scratch cards that have their photo on it and every teams race jackets. Then when they guest for each team we can mark off the jacket's! Also there was the special cards that toggled two pictures as you moved it. So the Sam Masters card could show an Edinburgh race jacket in one view and a Wolves in the other!
