  1. Had Virgin Media for almost 3 years without a problem. Unfortunately it's not reached Berwick yet, so I'll be looking at my options when the move has completed. Not sure if BT infinity is available up there either
  2. No jacket required for me at P & P.... and I'm a southern softie 😎
  3. No problem with any rider choosing to race abroad and not here, but they shouldn't be allowed to sign for a GB club when their Polish/Swedish seasons are over. That's just taking the pis*
  4. Press & practice, scheduled for Wednesday 22nd March, has been cancelled. New date TBC
  5. Depends what you want from your weekly speedway fix. To see some of the best young Aussie talent (albeit until they pack their rucksacks and head over to Poland), or a team made up of Brits and lower rate Danes/Swedes. Speedway is an entertainment business. You want the best riders possible over here. There may be one or two Brits who will make the grade, but many will never be above Championship reserve class. "Team GB" is a bit of a nonsense. An excuse to get the Union flags out for a week or so during the World Cup. The rest of the time we're cheering on our own sides made up mostly of foreigners.
  6. Team has been settled for months. Let's just get on with it
  7. An ego the size of the moon fed by idiots.
  8. I'm afraid I didn't get to see Rayleigh. I suspect it's still work in progress. They'll need to be a refs box up at least before the first meeting.
  9. No idea mate. All I know is what I've read on Twitter. I think the press bit is from noon. They'll be out on track after that I should think going on previous years
  10. Press & practice Wednesday 22nd March from noon
  11. I think it was Darren Fletcher that did the in house commentary at the British GP 2 or 3 years ago with Jan Staechman. I thought he came over very well.
  12. By my calculations, Robs true 2016 average (excluding bonus points) as a Rye House guest was 5.07 against his 5.80 average as an official team member. That's including all PL/KOC meetings. His average including guest appearances was 5.57
  13. Only 18 meetings a season including play offs doesn't seem much. How does that compare to Sky? I guess they'll be no Championship coverage
  14. Spoke briefly with Nigel Pearson on Saturday night. Asked him if there was any truth in the Internet rumours about Sky pulling out of speedway coverage. He told me he'd heard nothing officially. I then changed tactic and told him I was moving up to Berwick in a couple of months and was wondering whether to renew my Sky subscription. His answer was, "I'd stick to BT Sport" I dunno about that. My youngest son won the draw for the signed replica Tatum 1991 race jacket 😉
  15. They take a bigger cut than any agent would
  16. You're still banging on about this? Where's your proof? As B4e says, a few riders returning, so Rye can't be that bad. Either put up, or shut up. Worry about your own side. We'll be fine thanks
  17. Any news on P & P? I need to book the day off work
  18. The temp stand was demolished and a new one erected in a couple of weeks. I'm sure the new building works will be sorted in time. Still over 5 weeks to go. Don't panic people.
  19. Who cares? Attention seeking at its worst. This should be on discussions. Pointless thread
  20. In an attempt at point scoring you've missed the point entirely... Bravo
  21. Without the few spectators remaining there wouldn't be any speedway on Sky. What ya gonna do then smart arse?
