  1. You cant beat lawson for consistency , steady, safe, good team man, good equipment , good gater .
  2. 52 with 2 heat leaders getting 3 each is a good knock
  3. Saturday speedway has been the making of a team, no great surprise. Plymouth have to sort out this heat leader position properly before 2026 and could be play off material. another miracle last night with half a team .
  4. One last hurrah for emperor zagar with the aces in 26 in a supporting role ?
  5. you cant ever achieve with heeps as a heat leader, hes just not good enough .
  6. People will pay 20 quid for that each week , hope Plymouth had a great turnstile night . Fair play to barker too after smashing himself to bits weds.
  7. knudsen might not as well been signed by oxford tbh.
  8. oxfords side is a strange one, its got an out and out n1 and 5 or 6 random others that turn up when they please, ride in random positions and score randomly too. Might be the way forward because they arent doing badly .
  9. Did the ref actually check who was riding in the 4 jacket for Workington ?
  10. Dont forget the hot humid weather that tired the poor lads clean out on the drive up .
  11. The time for any club to race a home race meeting must be when it suits them most in the current climate , irrespective of league . i feel pooles main reasoning for dropping down was 2 fold, one of those would have certainly been race night , the other was monetary i would think as they are business people and try to run at a profit, which they do well. To my eyes oxford spires are wasting their time in the top league, ransacked the team midway thru last season and miles understrength this. Yet the cheetahs get fair crowds and the junior side seem to do reasonably well . Take a real act of faith for someone to move up.
  12. the chef has put the sausage on the barbie
  13. iv outstayed reading, iow and eastbourne in my 40 yrs as a supporter. Unfortunately the leisure pound is v hard to get hold of these days. Personally i hate these 5-6 team leagues with a huge chasm between good and bad. As another poster says you have to disregard poland, speedway is park lane over there and brick lane over here. As for promoters, they appear to be a thing of the past .
  14. any twit knows that, dig up another 10 tolleys and spunk 5 or 6 milion then squire.
  15. None of this protected racenight rubbish, race on the night that gets you the most customers, when its suits you, not other countries cracking the whip , preferably an amalgamation with 11-12 teams
  16. The one single thing that poole do is they categorically race on the night that suits them, have for years. Other sides do too an extent but they chop n change. Its why the so called top league prostitutes itself to the telly money by racing when it doesnt necessarily suit them accruing a crowd. Prime example leicester got great sat night crowds in the lower league when scotty was capt, now its a different matter for em entirely. Instead of appeasing others race when youve the best chance of a good crowd .
  17. tbh if plymouth are budget driven cluff prob ought too have gone over trigger , much of a muchness .
  18. Can't moan about birminghams managed decline really . Im not convinced that with a top 3 side they would accrue more support anyway . Drury seemed to do ok in the late 2000s but that's a lifetime ago . I do think that the time has come for one league tho or at least an overhaul . 6 teams does not a league maketh
  19. Severe test for oxford tonight, edinburgh look pretty strong , lots of imponderables with a few having first look at the place, oxfords guests look weaker , 29 degs, be dusty as hell one would think . too tight to call
