Charlie Webster Fighting For Her Life
screm replied to BWitcher's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Interview with Charlie, sounds like she is one lucky lady. https://www.thesun.co.uk/tvandshowbiz/1765967/sports-presenter-charlie-webster-says-she-was-moments-from-death-during-her-olympics-coma-nightmare-after-she-contracted-malaria-in-rio/ -
Like I said before its something worth looking at, maybe the ELRC could be on a Friday away from play off meetings in Poland and not on a GP weekend.
-
I did, I also read post 2 that points out there is a GP in Australia in October where the GP riders who race in our EL will be heading to, this years is on Oct 22nd.

2017 Grand Prix Venues
screm replied to DutchGrasstrack's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
We`ve seen SGP go to Croatia, Italy and Finland, hardly speedway hot beds so why not Holland. As has been mentioned its unlikely there will be any new venues for 2017 but some for 2018. -
Far to long I agree but it was two meetings, I was at the PL 4`s a couple or three years ago where it was another six hour meeting, mainly down to accidents and injured riders.
-
Decent idea in principle but probably unworkable in practice, for example had the three meetings had taken place in the weekend just gone, and the ELRC had been yesterday you wouldve had no Doyle, Woffinden, Holder, Kasprzak, Zagar, NKI, or Nicholls all racing in Poland, though Nicholls missed his due to a delayed flight but still take all those riders away and your left with a poorer version of what should be a decent meeting.

Polish Xtra/nice Leagues/etc Live On Tv

Didn't think they could do it be all credit to Torun. -

Bit more like it from Torun in Ht4, after the first two meetings we could do with a performance from an away team here. -
Very disappointing to hear, you`d think Doolan would be proud to represent Berwick in this meeting, maybe he should've pulled out and let Jorgensen have a go.
-
You could say that in previous years maybe but all the top riders in the PL have made it to Sheffield with only Kennett and Lambert missing out due to injury.
-
Certainly going to be a strange looking team that Somerset bring to Edinburgh, with Swindon at Lakeside they will be without Tungate, Wright and Grajzconek. Don`t know the fitness of Dan Bewley but Belle Vue Colts have a NL meeting at Coventry this Friday and as this is a re-arranged fixture will Coventry have first call on his services, should he be fit to ride.

Speedway Referee Numbers In Decline
screm replied to Dickie Head's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Good idea but how many of the riders would actually do it. -
Peterborough Panthers V Rye House - 12/9
screm replied to Flappy's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
You`d think Workington might need Hansen for their meeting at Newcastle. -
Peterborough Panthers V Rye House - 12/9
screm replied to Flappy's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Edward Kennett pulled up in his last ride, and has with drawn from today's PLRC due to injury so Rye may need a guest at No1. -
Edward Kennet has pulled out of the PLRC due to injury. Kyle Howarth now comes into replace Kennett.

Berwick V Rye House (7pm) 10th September
screm replied to crescent girl's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
No suspicious decision, Kennett did get it just on the line. Man up, we`ve sat shivering through June, July and August, trust to luck that our season is over and we get half decent weather for the last meeting or two. -

Kennett Jorgensen Perry Lykke. It was very close but Kennett did just nick it on the line. -
Berwick V Rye House (7pm) 10th September
screm replied to crescent girl's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
You can ignore the score as this was a far better meeting than it would suggest. Berwick looked to have a comfortable lead but a 8-1 in Ht9 brought Rye House right back into things, thankfully for the home team they hit back with maximum heat wins of their own. Kennett, Robson and Branford were excellent for the visitors but unfortunately for them Lanham and Heeps were weak links. So our 49th season is over but I believe we will see a 50th season and many more with a bit of luck. Hopefully any new owners will bring the necessary changes both on track and off, re-build the relationship between the football club and the speedway and re-engage with the fans who aren`t turning up on a Saturday night anymore. Do all that and they could have a successful club. -
Robert Lambert out Ulrich Oostegaard in.
-
One things for sure, the speedway is poorer for losing the consortium, though its positive news to hear that under the right ownership of the club they would be willing to help.

Garrity is out of the PLRC with Claus Vissing coming in.

Berwick V Rye House (7pm) 10th September
screm replied to crescent girl's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
I agree that average cheating might still go on but with these rolling averages it takes much longer. -
The market for selling speedway bikes you would imagine is a fairly small one, so hopefully people will keep an eye out on the usual sites though if the bikes are broken down that will make things a bit tougher. Funny that only the bikes were stolen as with tools etc you would think they would be easier to get rid of.
