... and in English?

You only need a dog with an, ahem, indigestion problem and all of a sudden you can be in profit

It can be, yes. Just like it was the other week against Sheffield when they could have easily called it off.

The ones on Twitter? Yeah he is in that shot but he came out on one for heat 12 with a more rounded top (I'm not a technical person as you can tell lol)

Was pretty consistent in 2014 tbf. 8 points away from being World Champion. But I know exactly what you mean

Track was poor for racing last night, Edwin may be having a little death in the box (if you know what I mean) because of the race times but it doesn't make for great Speedway racing. And... What on earth is Bomber riding these days? They don't appear to be GM's, I know he's dabbled with GTR's in the past, is he now riding Goddens? Or something else? Is he riding subsidised engines? His e/f in Heat 12 was the turning point in the match, when he came round to the tapes I could see he was on a "new" whatever it is and thought to myself, I hope that doesn't pack up and within yards of leaving the tapes it had.

Who he?

Especially for BV & Swindon. Leicester not too clever either!

I'm not that bothered tbh

He went out of his way to say hello to them... he didn't have to

There's been some cracking GP's there in the past, used to love watching Crumpy blasting round the bends up at the fence

Just look at the F1 yesterday... it's ignited the whole season!

Wow!

I also remember a meeting at Peterborough being cancelled on a day similar to today because they had overwatered the straight in front of the grandstand, because of the shadow it casts... I remember the guy who did the track (Richard Greer?) being forced onto the mic to explain himself and apologise to the crowd. I'm sure it'll be fine tonight though... looking forward to it.

OK... I'll make it easier for you, can you tell me just the profit or loss from a club over a season, any club, your choice, any season... I'll leave it up to you

And BV had a meeting called off because somebody had buried a load of rubbish under one of the bends

OK, can you tell me the attendance for the Leicester vs Scunthorpe match on Saturday the 10th of July? What was the pay rate for each rider? And did the club make a profit or loss on that meeting? I await your numbers, thanks.

You've been to Speedway before right?

To be fair as attendances, pay rates and profit/loss numbers are the biggest kept secrets in Speedway, it's difficult to do any sums. As for Bartosz Smarzlik (Zmarzlik) I think you could probably add a zero on the end of £120 a point, probably more going by the numbers Darcy Ward was quoting a few years back.

It's like praising Jimmy Savile for all his charity runs

It's strange that the club haven't done anything, you would have thought it would have been a way to make a bit of easy money. Buy and print t-shirts for a fiver, sell em for £20. There are a lot of people that wear Leicester merch on race night at BP. I've stood there and watched people shell out £25-£30 for tour t-shirts at music concerts!
