  1. Even the one on the back straight that I have only ever seen open once on my many visits to the NSS?
  2. To be fair generally the effort levels of the riders does seem to go up a notch during the play offs in the UK, whether that's perceived by the fans (me) or is actually the case I don't know, but I'd like to think it is the former. As for some clubs increasing the admission prices, I know King's Lynn have done it in the past but most clubs don't... I don't call them the pay offs for no reason though.
  3. What about when there's clearly no demand? Put the prices up 😂
  4. I don't think the ever did, wasn't it down to Martin Hunter and Ben Duffil approaching them with the idea instead of the other way around?
  5. I've known some clubs do it for the final but not the semi! Maybe Belle Vue assumed it was going to be their last match of the season 🤔
  6. Mark Lemon does seem a strange appointment to be CEO of Belle Vue Speedway, I'm not sure what his qualifications are or business experience is?
  7. With 3 guests and R/R it was hardly a Birmingham team, so I'm not sure it's really worth bickering about 🤷‍♂️
  8. To use for a quick nap while waiting for a decent Speedway race? 😴
  9. Has the cameraman on bend 2 got parkinsons?
  10. https://watch.britishspeedway.co.uk/watch/643c1967-2f8f-459e-b01c-40c836e81d73
  11. I must remember to be in the bar of a Polish hotel on the night of his testimonial at the start of next season 🍻
  12. He got suckered into the tapes in heat 1, started off 15, quit back to the pits after 2 laps while last, just didn't move when the tapes went up in his 2nd while everybody else went and has now just touched the tapes in his 3rd after his bike packed up and he jumped on the guests machine!!
  13. Good night for Hagon, finally seems to be getting amongst the points 👏
  14. Klindt a disgrace, he'd be better off in a Polish hotel room 😂
  15. Let's hope he buys an alarm clock with it ⏰️ 😂
  16. What's the restaging date for this? It doesn't appear to be on the fixture list on Lions website
  17. ... and all on the back of an army of volunteers that move heaven and earth each week to enable tracks to stage meetings and riders to earn money.
  18. Because you're not the all conquering team you think you are, as shown in the league table standings, Sheffield should probably have finished top, so no disgrace in losing to them at home and 4th placed Belle Vue were only 6 league points adrift at the end of the season. With the way Doyley & Emil were riding last season you were clearly the team to beat, this season both riders have been performing well below those standards. I agree about the riding order though you've got to have your best 2 riders at 1 and 5 as there is the likelihood of a big points swing with a 5-1 in heat 13
  19. You'd have thought that, with the air fence having a shelf life, a certain ex world champion could re-purpose old air fences as track covers and sell them back to clubs... just a thought.
