Ah yes the enigma that is Nicolai Klindt, he nearly signed for Rye House at one time.

Seems as bit odd as Adam Ellis used to ride for you and Nick Morris helped you win the league but if you would rather cheer the Comets that's your right.

Scoring zero in speedway is really easy, look down at bike, pull onto centre green, walk bike back to pits at completion of race.

I don't know, I quite enjoy seeing KKS/Jepsen Jensen Racing etc making a fool of himself.

You should no by now that such is the nature of KKS he often ends up trolling himself lol

It’s been mentioned on another forum that there is a big grasstrack meeting on Sunday, maybe this is the reason why there is doubt about this fixture taking place?

It does have an air of, we’re going down, let’s take a few with us.

Yes its true Rye House lost a load of money earlier in the season for league matches that did not matter, we have seen it year in, year out, empty stadiums for much of the season then all of sudden its play off time, ON A MONDAY! AND ON TV! and yet still they get big crowds, that tells you everything, if the meeting matters enough, then people will make every effort to go, for the other meetings, they will find every excuse not to. So to cut that story short, if the meeting has enough on it, it doesn't matter what day you run it, people will find a way to get there.

Might as well pass the second leg and call it after just one, its not the Hammers fault that Peterborough blew their home leg.

With all due respect Waco, if you were coming from anywhere in Essex or even North Kent, it doesn't take two and a half hours to get to Rye House, I am Chelmsford and I wasn't going to leave until 15:45 at the earliest had it still been on, and I would still be there some 30 mins before the start.

To be fair Waco, it was called around three hours before start time, I don't know what more could have been done, it was only that last bit of heavy rain that killed it, had it gone say 30 miles East of the track, they probably would have got away with it, end of the day though, these meetings have got to be raced and we have two weekends left now, one more wet weekend and these are not going to get done.

Just one little bit of weather to get through and they are in the clear, fingers crossed.

On twitter it says the track is fine but I bet if this was supposed to be at 2pm It would be off, lets hope they can make it "raceable" by 5pm

Looking at the Radar via the met office that area is getting some pretty heavy rain right now, but whilst the weather front keeps going North West there is a chance they might only catch the edge of it, if it starts moving more Eastwards then no chance will the track be recoverable, It will be too flooded and what with the river being close by I would guess the water table is not on that locations side.

Met Office saying 70/80% chance of heavy rain from 10-12 then 50% chance of light rain from 1 to 10pm (this is for Harlow)

Met office is currently suggesting sunshine and light showers late morning then light rain from 3pm but its been changing over the last few days.

I wasn't aware of that situation, no wonder the poor chap has been struggling for form this season, I saw similar with Adam Shields, he wasn't the same rider after some women got her claws out.

Also, I recall saying many years ago, that there is nothing to stop a group of fans clubbing together and buying their team an unofficial trophy which could be presented to them as a form of acknowledging the hard work they put in for finishing top of the table, its no different to a individual or group sponsoring an individual meeting and awarding trophies to the top three riders. Thus far to my knowledge, not one set of fans from any club has actually done this when they have had a team finish top but not be champions, maybe Kings Lynn would like to be the first?

I think there is, the table itself will always record the order of the clubs by points scored, then underscored with details of who won the play offs and were crowned league champions. If you wikipedia the 2010 season it will forever show that Poole finished top of the table, then Wolves, then Panthers then Bees, and that Bees beat Poole in the final to become league champions BUT it will always show Poole as top, twenty points ahead of the next team, so whilst the Pirates were not champions it wouldn't be wrong to say they finished top of the league, because they did.

The play offs do add an extra element that there is no doubt, but it is very strange having a system whereby the top four of only a seven team league races for the top prize, based on that the team that finished 4th, technically didn't even finish in the top half of the table and that you had more teams in the end of season competition to win the league than those who failed to make it. Seven teams- should have been straight final for the top two only, to have four teams in the play offs, you really need at least nine or more clubs involved in the actual league, otherwise its get even more farcical. just my opinion of course.

Yeah Hammers need him on form for Sunday

Inept refereeing at its worst, no excuse when they have the benefit of television.

Lynn rolling back the years...…………………………………………………………………………………………………….to the 80s where they always finished bottom of the league.

Fair to say I think Dry House will be anything but after all the rain we have had and will continue to have, 100% correct decision will the early call off.

Forecast for tomorrow is even more daunting now, if it does what the met office expect, then no chance.
