So he mugged them off as well 😂

No... one was definitely white, the yellow had just run in the wash 😁

You asked for it...

Same here about Jimmy Savile, I worked with somebody that used to work for the police and she said they knew about Savile, that was in the year 2000 she told me that and he wasn't outed until 2012 Anyway back to the Speedway

JT signed for the rest of the season.

It very much depends on which way the wind is blowing

Numbers wise it seems closer to the current Leicester team, though that does have a big hitter in Fricke, somebody capable of winning heats 13 & 15 and generally beating the opposing teams number 1, that's all Lynn are short of really. The legacy teams in the PL Ippo, Sheffield, BV have all managed to build with some astute signings, of the 3 newcomers only Leicester have really managed to compete thanks to the signing of Fricke. For Lynn, since Lambert left they've made some poor signings in Laguta & Musielak (tbf who knew that Musielak would do what he did) as number 1's... and don't really have one this season.

Dad's army was in the first year back after covid wasn't it when there weren't really any "stars" in the league, that makeup of team may have worked then (as it did), can't see it doing so again while the superstars are all at 4 clubs.

I read somewhere they only had 3 turnstiles/pay points open for the Knockout Cup final and that's what caused the delay.

Yes, I'm one of those that have proposed it. That then does at least then make it more of a "team" effort.

I think it's just a payday for most of the riders, sadly

I stopped attending KL after the fiasco a few years back against Leicester when they only had 1 ambulance at the track and the meeting was held up for over an hour before being abandoned... I then gave them a reprieve when they ran into difficulties after the Brady/Laguta issues to show some support and solidarity and started going again, only to be rewarded by going over from Leicester 3 times last season and not seeing a single meeting raced... needless to say they are back on my banned list again.

It's not something I can get too excited about either way tbh... on the one hand I do enjoy an extra heat with pretty high stakes, a whole league point... but on the other hand it seems a pretty easy way to get a league point with the one race that normally would take 15 to achieve and is obviously stacked in favour of the team that has 2 big guns. On balance, it's probably not something the sport "needed"

I can... he missed 2021 and has only given 100%😁

After the last few disastrous seasons I think you've had a pretty solid season, with a good cup run and a final, certainly something to build on, who knew somebody like Ben Cook would let you down so badly.

I wonder if @Bagpuss opened his curtains to watch this one 😉😁 At least the weather would have kept the dust down for @tellboy 😉😁

Because Nicholls got biffed in the nose by the mic a couple of weeks ago when Pickering & Janowski were shaking hands. Last time out Nicholls wore a helmet to do the toss, they're just wringing every last ounce out of the joke now.

Wet, heavy track, is going to take some skill and throttle control to ride tonight... oh look you're 8 down after 2 😂😂

Coin toss... but nobody cares about the rules these days!

If you lose you can always appeal that there was no coin toss at the beginning of the meeting 😁

Parade is now 8pm not 7:30pm and tapes up is now 8:15pm rather than 7:45pm. This is due to extra track work and the sun setting.

... well when one of your own riders can't be bothered 🤷‍♂️

It shouldn't be up to Plymouth to determine whether he's breaking the rules, that's the SCB's job surely, their inconsistency in the application of the rules is staggering at times. Because Garry May said they hadn't, something to do with the facility they'd get.

Hasn't this been called off yet?

The commentators didn't mention that Kevin Malkiewicz was born in the UK once... bloody amateurs!
