  1. Sad thing is there is plenty of opportunity for young riders to practice and train just a lack of people wanting to do it
  2. No idea all I know is they wanted premiership which would of been Mondays or Thursday nights as fixed race days so Friday wouldn't come into the equation.
  3. To that question I don't have an answer I would of said more the merrier but this is the empty shell that is British speedway
  4. We're did you get this information because as far as I understand it Oxford wanted premiership but application blocked by the clubs in it . Mr Godfrey dose not make the decisions as it's a board of members he's just the one who announces them and takes the flack for it. Think those that think it's a one man dictatorship need to give their heads a wobble and find another agenda
  5. As far as I understand it all the rules for next year are agreed only need rubber stamp at agm then announcements will begin in earnest. Think many scunthorpe fans will be pleasantly surprised with the team. Personally I'm not convinced that Dan knows the full 1/7 yet
  6. So how many riders have your team already announced without any inside knowledge
  7. Bomber is fantastic to watch at Berwick seem to be one of the few riders who don't worry about gate and go
  8. We run putoline in our 250cc never a problem . Had found it is a thicker oil than most speedway type oils we always change every meeting
  9. I'd argue the two teams who pulled out should of not entered in the first place absolute folly in current climate
  10. In fairness I have seen a few NDL meetings this year and all have been close and competitive with good racing
  11. It's a shame that the amount of people on here who always have a negative view of everything.
  12. Without trawling through loads of topics were is it where Rob said he was ill . Please could someone copy and paste it on here
  13. Wouldn't worry about it those complaining are those who want to stick the knife into speedway and it's organisers .
  14. Wouldn't have Tommy or Adam they miss to many meetings for one reason or another .
  15. Hope so we can then water track hard and win easily again as dummies come out
  16. Should Leicester forfeit as a failure to complete the fixture
  17. Surely Cubs meeting takes precedence as was already arranged
  18. Personally I hope not great to watch at scunny but poor away
  19. That's a fantastic team if only It would fit into next years averages
  20. What about 250 class which is currently the strongest class even if it's not the biggest
  21. 1, ellis 2 kemp 3 allen 4 palin 5 barker 6 mountain 7 Kingsley or Gilkes no Lambert or Jorgensen for me even though both have done well this year Thomas to injury prone and Simon don't do enough away on a regular basis
  22. Thing is scunthorpe have been generally poor recently from heat 11 onwards. And in all honesty we were never in the meeting and soundly beaten by a better team. Personally I didn't leave as it was last meeting of season but each to there own . Think most scunthorpe fans even prior to the meeting new we would get beat and probably for the first time this season the atmosphere was subdued from start to finish
  23. Does it really matter who is at home first in speedway. Scunthorpe will get beat over 2 legs by everyone as we are pants away or is it just another debating point by the key board warriors who want to have a go at Rob Godfrey
  24. In fairness the following could all run in a Nora league as all thee tracks are available or can be hired . IOW, Lydd, Iwade , Scunthorpe, Redcarr , Kings Lynn ,Leicester then there is the potential of Oxford Workington Buxton and Mildenhall . All it needs is people to put there necks out to hire the tracks and then promote it to a paying public. Could be of National league standard to what ever limit you want or run like the German teams cup which is done I believe on a 4tt format but they do include 250s as 5th rider. Could be run like Barry runs the Iow for all those who want a break away league you just have to get up and get on it's there if you want it. as I see it it once in a blue moon opportunity for it to happen but don't see it happening as there are not enough people who will do what Barry and Martin do to make there product work. To many will sit and moan instead of trying it
