Shadders

It was amusing at the start, but got a little wearysome by the end. Reminded me of 2005 when we were doing that to most visitors every Saturday. Didn't mind it so much then as we were top of the league and winning away too!

I was there for the Rye House meeting in the first season the track opened and thought the straights were too long for the tight bends. Just my opinion, I'm no expert

I saw that too. One crash too many it seems. It's very sad to read stuff like that

Well, I hope you get it sorted. Lovely facility, friendly staff and easy to get to. Looking forward to my visit there when the Rockets & Bandits are in town

Leicester had a great opportunity to construct the best track in British speedway, and ballsed it up big time. No amount of tinkering around the edges can change that. The only way is to knock it down and start again. That ain't gonna happen. Such a shame

First time I've seen them, so it would be unfair of me to judge them on that showing

Better than the two Glasgow Aussies I saw at Rye tonight? I'd say so on that showing

Glasgow Tigers. What a load of f***ing s*it!

If anyone sees the ref before the start ask him/her to watch out for Grieves doing his usual rolling at the tapes.

Looking at the line ups I'd be happy to take a 12 point lead to Ashfield, but I'd expect more given that there are no tactical rides in the KOC. Mechanical gremlins, falls and Glasgow being sharper from the gate could put a spanner in the works though. Hope it's entertaining with no riders hurt.

The turning point was the injury to Kus. Dyers two reserve rides scored 6 points. Ok, I'll take it that Dyer could've possibly have replaced Kus in 13, but even so, doubtful Kus would've made much impact in heat 11. No idea as to the extent of his injuries. Would he have taken his last two rides if Redcar had 2 out of form reserves?

Those kevlars are gonna look good in the upcoming Sky meeting. A home defeat in front of tens of thousands won't!

Wouldn't wanna be a Bandits fan tonight... What a shocker!

Monarchs to win by 4

Now rearranged for 27th April replacing the scheduled PL match with Scunthorpe.

For what it's worth, on Facebook Jason said he's hoping to start Physio next week, so could be a matter of just a couple of weeks.

I recall Luke rode with a rod in his leg a few years back which I thought was pretty reckless. Thankfully he's taking doctors orders this time.

I've not heard or read anything officially. I thought I heard mentioned he may need another operation on his leg, maybe to remove a pin or rod, but that may have just been gossip. If he was close to returning I'm sure something would've been announced.

I've given up defending the racing at Rye House. On a brighter note, Jason Bunyan on his Facebook page reckons he could be back racing in a couple of weeks. Simon Lamberts return is anyone's guess. I'm not confident that Silver will want to sign a temporary replacement after what happened with Jason Doyle/Steve Boxall.

Anyone who knows anything about speedway could see that Dyer is in a different league to Edberg, there is no comparison. Major own goal letting him go for what was rumoured to be not much more than Edberg was asking for.

I doubt they'll see a better race than the final heat of tbe Ben Fund meeting. Wasn't much dirt on the track that night, but I take your point. It's not only the lack of passing, but the riders being so strung out after a couple of laps. Where's the entertainment there?

How much more than Berwick did Redcar offer Dyer to join them?... Mind you, they're lovely race suits Edbergs dad paid for

Good posts by WHB and Ben. I agree with most if not all that's been said.
