That's your fault; I have set up adblock, it's easy, and never see advertisments.

I watched this on BSN: there was some good racing, and I was really impressed with Scunthorpe's young riders, Harrison, Ingram and Ablitt.

It's just 'Shale' in Polish, I believe?

Blair would be if he spoke English.

Rushen had just lost control. If I had been the ref, I would have excluded Rushen then. As for him being a 'minor', he is a big tall young man. He is a future champion, but he needs to calm down a touch.

Didn't he start speedway in the first place in an attempt to put his criminal life behind him?

I remember in 2008? when Jason Lyons missed the gate and overtook the other three riders down the back straight on the second lap: must have shook them rigid!

Peter Collins!

Or the occaision when he overtook Ole Olsen, who was in his pomp as World Champion; then someone at the back fell off. In the restart, Finn overtook Olsen again. But Ole was the only one Finn seemed to want to impress.

No you don't.

Dean is one of the few who talks sense in this forum!

Hausl, a German, probably can't understand his accent!

What does that mean? I have been watching BSN on my TV via a Fire stick without much trouble.

Oh hello Clarke, you're back!

Just about all of the MDL teams, including those attached to senior teams, were run by 'enthusiasts' in my experience (which was 10 years ago now). I don't think that I came across the person you refer to: just about all of of the riders I saw were young hopefuls. People on this forum are always moaning about the shortage of riders, but IMO the destruction of the MDL has only contributed to this. Provide the opportunities and the riders will turn up.

What do you mean by this? I never understood why they banned 'nomad' teams.

Roberts? Is he the one who rode for Birmingham upwards of 20 years ago? (Called 'Tubby' I heard)

It was that bad when I used to go regularly 10 - 12 years ago!

There was an MK MDL team a few years ago, until the nomadic teams were abolished. Some fans came to Birmingham, at least.

It is in Youtube; I've seen it several times.

The BSPL banned 'nickname' teams some years ago. Thereby reducing the supply of new riders ...

As I understand it, Mildenhall is not in the NDL, so what is the problem?

Years ago, I met James Hanlon, a member of Love Affair ... he told me that none of the group actually performed in the record!

So ask yourself, why?

Why is that? Meadows was impressive riding in second halves at Birmingham last season.
