Poole vs Oxford BSN 07/05/25
IainB replied to LisaColette's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
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

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 😉

Speedway On Tv And The Internet In 2026
IainB replied to racers and royals's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
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? -
Glasgow v Berwick BSN cup 18/4/25@19.30
IainB replied to Paulco's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
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. -

IainB replied to Paulco's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
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! -
German GP Landshut Saturday 3rd May
IainB replied to racers and royals's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
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. -

What do you expect for £30.99 a month!! I think we now know where Speedway stands in the TNT Sports hierarchy, looking at the @bikesontnt socials there was zero mention that there was even a GP on! -
Just wait until Paco gets given a place in the GP 😂

In this current era I'm tending to agree with you, I'd rather have 1 night of jeopardy than 10 nights of mediocrity.

"We're trying to make it more diverse and attract a younger audience"... cut to 2 old men on the back of a pickup truck delivering the trophy 🏆 😂😂 -
He is a bit of a homer,I wouldn't judge him on his Worky performances alone

Workington v Scunthorpe BSN 03/05/25 3pm
IainB replied to topaz325's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
I do like all these young Aussies riding in our leagues this year, if they can manage to stick around Australia's future looks quite bright. -
It seems that, like in football, the Championship is a far more competitive league than the Premiership.

Yeah... well said Bartek! -
German GP Landshut Saturday 3rd May
IainB replied to racers and royals's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
It's not much better watching it on TV... there's clearly no direction, with the camera often concentrating on a rider for a predetermined amount of time and order. -
... and (in summary) why was that?

The thing is though that neither WSB or MotoGP then go on to have a further 20 qualifying heats,2 semis and a final
