Taken from the Northern Junior League facebook page, hope they don't mind! Round 1 of the Northern Open Championship couldn't have got of to a better start at Derwent park last night with victory going to wild card Tamas Sikes who was untroubled throughout. Home favourite Tommy Fenwick was expected to be his biggest challenge but mechanical trouble meant he was ristricted all night. Luke Ruddick also showed some good speed and control but an EF and a fall held his scoring back while Ryan MacDonald continued his early season improvement by making the final. The highlight of the match though was the battles between Dan Phillips and Luke Crang who in 3 races constantly changed positions, passing and re passing both showing great sportsmanship in how they went about it and it was Crang who just got the drop on Phillips in the final to take second. Championship points T Sike 15 L Crang 12 D Phillips 9 R MacDonald 4 T Fenwick 4 L Ruddick 2

Northside v Berwick this Sunday (28th) will take place prior to the start of the amateur meeting taking place the same day. I'm not 100% sure on the start time but I'd imagine around 12pm. Looking at the other fixtures planned for northside they all seem to coincide with amateur meetings so I'd imagine the plan would be the same, to hold the njl fixture prior to the amateur meeting. Having said that it is a bit of trial and error at the moment so it depends how things pan out, if it turns out better to hold it after the amateurs then it might change. I think I'm right in saying that this is the first time anyone involved in the njl has attempted to organise anything like this so it is a bit of a learning curve. It might not appear to be as professional or organised as the likes of the mdl but it is very much in its infancy. In the meantime I'll see if its possible to post results/information on here for those who are interested.

No northside training on Saturday 27th April due to the first of this years northside amateur meetings the following day.

It did take place but I'm not sure of the scores. Tommy fenwick won 2 heats for workington and Danny Phillips 1 for redcar, I remember that much.

Northside training track has now reopened, complete with air fence, and will be running every Saturday from 12 till 4. Hire bikes available.

Northside are running a training session this SUNDAY (18th) from 12 until 4pm and then again on SATURDAY 1st december 12 until 4pm again. No training Saturday 24th November due to northside's inaugural amateur meeting that day. Facebook "northside Speedway" for more details.

Northside are next running on Saturday 3rd and Sunday 4th November, from 12pm-4pm, and then every Saturday until early December, when it will close until early February.

I wonder if a few chickens are now coming home to roost?

Can't see anything that Gollob did wrong. I would imagine any of the top riders would have done exactly the same as he did. Just a racing incident.

In all honesty, I thought the Zielona Góra - Bydgoszcz meeting was all over after the first two heats. A bit disappointed really, I was looking forward to a good, close meeting but it soon became apparent that Bydgoszcz wern't up to the task of beating ZG on there own patch

18:30 Żużel: Ekstraliga mecz: ZKŻ Kronopol Zielona Góra - Polonia Bydgoszcz Live on Polsat Sport (17.30 UK time)

It's just satellite you won't be able to view it on, if it's online you shouldn't have a problem

TVP Sport is indeed encrypted in NDS/Videoguard on Eutelsat W3A @ 7*E. Absolutely no chance whatsoever of viewing this channel without a valid subscription I'm afraid

Funnily enough, that's exactly what I was thinking Even the meeting at Peterborough the other week wasn't a patch on this one

Some superb racing in this meeting (Rzeszow v Wroclaw) but it looks like Rzeszow are pulling away now It would be nice if we had tracks like that over here

Thanks Mateusz Don't fancy staying up till daft O' clock on a Sunday night watching speedway though I'm afraid
