  1. If you mean the Premiership, well not in its current form with too many variables coming into play, as it is is the number of clubs is not really good enough ie too many matches against the same club. Next season may see some changes ....Swindon may re join the League, Peterborough’s future is uncertain , will Oxford move up, plus the shortage of riders. Big changes are needed for both leagues but will.there be enough drive from the BSPL to go the extra mile.... Add in the state of the economy putting strain on promoters , riders and fans .....well see.
  2. Not forgetting big Leggy, I,m sure Steve said on a recent podcast question best team mate..” Jacko Irving”.
  3. https://cumbriacrack.com/2022/07/03/milestone-for-workington-comets-return-as-bikes-get-back-in-action/
  4. Start next season I believe in NL.
  5. Yes , good run out by steve and the boys.
  6. Track is impressive , very wide bends (wider than Belle vue I believe ) , very smooth too, great work by all the guys down there.
  7. Take it easy on the recovery Dan , get fit before making a comeback .
  8. Basically saying they were running at a loss of £4/£5 k a meeting, losses for Leicester meeting were £7000.00. certain riders were wanting £80/£90 a point plus signing on fee, a van , living expenses, mechanics paid for, flights and accommodation . Average crowds were 380 , 251 people for the Leicester meeting. £5000.00 damage from a storm. Guests wanting extortionate fees, guarantees or won’t ride.
  9. I,m going but I think ideally the GP2 should have been on Friday the GP Saturday but the track will may not have taken it , it’s a bit like having the a semi final after the final. Anyway I,m sure I’ll enjoy both meetings.
  10. Remember a Edinburgh reserve going over the fence coming out of bend 2 landing on the concrete , broke his leg I think, his name escapes me at the moment.
  11. Just listened to the No brakes podcast and maybe some of us have jumped the gun on the Sheffield meeting problems.
  12. The future for the sport if it has one, stadiums built far from housing and not used for greyhound racing, Stock cars , rugby/football.
  13. A good announcer/presenter makes a lot of difference.
  14. Agree Charlie but as for who won its rather a moot point, there was some good racing between the delays but the whole episode did no favours to the sport whatever the rights and wrongs .
