Is Jake Allen's red helmet more white than red? Certainly when viewed from behind!

I've never seen anybody make tossing a coin look so difficult 😂

Zmarzlik watch out! 👀

If you've been effected by anything you've seen counselling is available by calling BSP Ltd!

Poole High Tide: 23/04/25: 19:47 07/05/25: 19:46 ... so not that 🌊

Noooooo! If true, nobody needs to see this 🫣

Ouch... doesn't sound like he'll be back anytime soon.

Leicester Lions And Leicester Lions B Team... Berwick 😂

I remember a Bank Holiday Monday morning at Cradley and Coventry were that far ahead after the opening heats an announcement was made over the pa... the tactical substitutes for the next three heats are... At least that's the way I remember it lol. They were the days where team managers could be a lot more tactical and strategic compared to modern day Speedway.

Booey

Any news on Gilkes? Just read elsewhere that the concern was his kneecap and not his arm (which he's badly broken previously of course)

It's a shame Wolverhampton closed as I believe the burgers they sold aided weight loss... quite explosively 💥💩

Yes, you're right, the question of is it worth it is probably a question a rider always asks himself when in close combat... I've never actually heard it said in commentary before though related to race format, so it's now an extra factor to not take a chance. Yes, Zmarzlik could and indeed did make it off the graveyard gate 3 twice. That was my point in this really that generally the "contenders" tend to make it off any gate when it's needed, I probably didn't articulate it that well though. And I'm sorry to say that I am one of those that is finding the GP series rather boring at the moment. There's nothing more I like better than watching a sportsman at the top of his game and Zmarzlik is certainly, head and shoulders, the best rider currently riding in the SGP series... but is he the best in the world is a question that's not really being answered... for me, just like when Tai won his championships with Emil not riding SGP.

The Manchester United of Speedway skimping on money again! Was the supermarket trolley out of action? 🛒 I hope Gilkes is back on a bike soon, he's been really impressive on his few outings in a Lions race suit

I can't remember which heat it was, was it one involving Zmarlik and he was lining up a pass but the commentators said "it's not worth it"? That's not what I want to be hearing when watching my Speedway. Also the "graveyard" gates... gate 4 had 3 wins, Lindgren, Kubera & Bewley came 2nd from it in the semis and final. Gate 3 was a total dud though.

🤔 Big brother has been at work

... and held it at the weekend

It can be exciting but it very much depends on which track you're watching the action... and of course we all know that Pirates fans will turn out to watch speedway... but only on a Wednesday, as there's so much else to do in Poole for the rest of the week 😉

BREAKING NEWS: Nigel Tolley blaming track (again) for Birmingham's latest defeat at home... who would have thunk it? I must admit I'm beginning to feel a bit sorry for him 😔

This 👇 ... or you maybe able to follow the same link as @gjcone44 suggests on a Web browser on your tv, if its a smart tv or a connected smart device, firestick, android box etc. I do this and watch it from the comfort of my arm chair

How good has the Speedway been up north this year? Superb stuff compared to the PL!

Is Boughen riding NDL this year? If not maybe he needs to serve his apprenticeship properly like Dan Thompson did, he rode for 4 years in the NDL. Maybe he's getting ahead of himself and little bit?

These moving at the start penalties are becoming ridiculous, for the tiniest of movements... having said that Boughen has moved at the start in each one of his races with a bit of a roller in heat 1.

Only in all the wrong places of course. I can never fathom why, in this country, the inside never seems to be watered once a meeting starts 🤷‍♂️ There has been some cracking Speedway racing though!

He certainly wasn't on tick over last night though, he was on it right from heat 1 his gander was obviously up. Everybody considered as his main rivals were bang average apart from Bewley and Kurtz.
