Why when it's a team designed to win at home 😂😂 -
Looks like we have a spammer on the forum
phillwhitewasmad replied to CheCazzo's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
I use ignore on him but people keep quoting his posts so you see his inane ramblings. Personally think he adds nothing to the debates -
Jake Allen think he's an Aussie

Agree totally that there is no interest from the club authorities . But to the riders selected it's huge riding against the best there is only makes you better.

Personally don't think there are any minor Fim events they are all major in each individual age category.

Think Scunthorpe may have a similar problem with Luke

Strange isnt it that everyone says riders should have a job as speedway isnt a full time profession , then proceed to moan when a rider fits in racing around the job.😏- 919 replies

Championship Predictions 2026

At least that's a positive post about Scunthorpe -
Scunthorpe 2026
phillwhitewasmad replied to Youhave2minutes's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
To add to this the club runs to a budget and pays on time every time . I do understand though to most posters on here that a club that provides great racing in a cost effective manner owing no riders money is in anyway a positive -
To cut out all speculation Luke was offered £15 a point to ride at two clubs as this is the standard rate for heat leaders and he would of been number 1 at both clubs. He has made the decision not to race in the Ndl this season not because of the money

Championship KO Cup Draw
phillwhitewasmad replied to RoundTheBoards's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
paul you know its suits the narrative -
there no discussion on quitting mate its just the anomaly of losing to much money when riding and not riding enough to progress
-
He has signed a warsaw contract which in reality is not a guarantee of a spot just allows a rider to practice and hopefully get picked to race this involves no payment at all unless racing
-
No not at all but if a rider on a 10 point average is losing money riding and a days wage on top of it then it becomes massively unviable can you imagine the losses a 3 pointer is incurring
-
Currently no decision is made on Luke doing the league, my personal feeling is he shouldn't do it as with the current pay scales even scoring 15 every meeting means you run at a loss and even more so when you factor in the loss of a days working wage for us both as well. But on the flip side of that with only a championship spot and the limited amount of racing that it will provide he may have to do it for bike time and to justify the huge outlay on equipment during the winter. From doing 70 plus meetings last year to probably less 35 this year is there any wonder why young riders give up.

Hannah is a decent rider would hold her own in the national league. Ask Ben trigger he followed her around a lot 😂 -

Leicester Lion Cubs 2025
phillwhitewasmad replied to Barrow Boy 2's topic in National League Speedway
I can confirm that we don't use new tyres for national league. There is no point there are plenty of decent used ones available. Recently had two paid maximums on tyres that had done two heats on each edge before starting the meetings. Personally don't see the benefit from a cost point of view to the rider a heat leader on £15 a point has his first 4.5 points wiped out buying it it's ok if someone is providing them but still think it makes much difference to the lads based on the tracks they are given kings lyNn has been the exception so far this year as it's been fantastically prepared
