Not rude just stating facts :P

Now, I know you don't come across many people up in that part of the world, you're probably more used to communicating with sheep or cows or something... but I generally find it easier to be civil and polite with people, try it sometime, you'll be amazed at the results! :P

Tate said in speedway star  he was not doing top league yet, as its too soon he wants to learn at a slower pace concentrate on the comets, as they have been very good to him,  not doing too much. I would think he may get a team place in the top league before the rest of the year, in a view to riding next year, also in todays programme antti voulas has been approached for top league,  but also turned it down to concentrate on the comets

Not only was it a poor decision to exclude Kileen it should also have been re-run, how the ref could call it with 1 lap to go when the previous 3 had seen the lead change hands numerous times is beyond comprehension. Terrible refereeing!

Great meeting to watch and a real captains ride from Cook to seal the points in the last race. Why Zischke hasn't been snapped up by a PL club is a bit of a mystery

Yes i agree, Ipswich could swap Zischke for Rew Nd Leicester could swap Fricke for Zischke!

Good meeting today, last beat decider always makes it interesting. Young Ashton was superb for Oxford. Tate just doing Tate things in heat 8, that lad has got some future in this sport.

Although he may have been rude this comment shows that you're a bit of a prat. Judging the whole of the comets fans off one person is just ridiculous

I don't get the star... enlighten me

Tate's words as quoted from the Speedway Star article iainb   ' Recently, I got a Premiership offer for this year. I really wanted to do it but Darcy said , ' just calm down a bit'. We'll look at that next year. 

Sound advice in my book.

The kid's got talent... I wonder why he wasn't advised to go to Poole?

Another great meeting today, well done to the Cheetahs who were competitive throughout and helped produce some top notch racing. 8 points down after heat 12 the Cheetahs responded by pulling 6 of those points back in the next two heats to take it to squeaky bum time and a last heat decider. Well done to Captain Cook for winning heat 15 and securing the two points.

Hard to believe that the track looked on the dry side after all the rain we had on Wednesday and Thursday.

Hope the Cheetahs fans who made the journey enjoyed the racing and safe journey home.

Theirs more teams than Poole, maybe darcy and tate thinks the track and the worky fans  are better than Poole.  :PTo put it in football terms Poole are like man utd of speedway, but man utd  are/were a big name club , but would you want a youngster to go to man utd  now ?

The article states that both Darcy and Tate thought Worky were the best of the clubs they talked to.

Interesting, no pressure I suppose.

Poole are still the team to beat though, so they're more like the Man City of Speedway. Worky are more the Man Utd trying to rekindle former glories :D
