I wonder where we'd be without Kelv to keep us on the straight and narrow :)

 

 

At least he keeps reminding us who the world champion is

Neither Kurtz bewley or zmarzlik put a foot wrong in that final and apart from position none of them can improve on that, that was 3 riders at their absolute peak and was a joy to watch 

Agree,

You are either clueless or are begrudging of the track or both seeing as your a Coventry fan you should concentrate on getting your own club back.

He has to keep on reminding us, because he knows how easily we forget, that he's the greatest thing since sliced bread :)

Having worked in the hospitality industry for 25 years it never ceases to amaze me how on the big day, when everyone should be on point. British speedway always manages to shoot themselves in the foot…. Every bloody time. 
 

forget the stupid, flash banners and just get the bare basics right….. it’s not rocket science. 
 

if you can’t do the basics to cater for your paying clients in the 21st century. Step aside or pay someone professional to do it for you. 

Wasn't there an ex speedway rider who had a successful pie business, who supplied certain football clubs. Get him to do it

Yes, Bowen I think he's called, works for BSN presenting.  I think they used to supply BV but unsure if they still do, only based in Lancs, 20 miles away.

Catering in the main grandstand was absolutely horrific even for BV standards. Only wanted a soft drink as presumed you couldn’t take anything in, one hour a group of us queued 🤣

Ended up with one of the bar staff in tears and Mark Lemon behind there pouring pints.

He must be mortified of what happened there tonight, who are these people they employ, absolutely useless 😆

They’ve had long enough to come up with a plan for an obvious problem

The points scoring system has got to review for next season, it is making mockery of the Sport.Its meant to be to decide a World Champion.

another example tonight  Freddie scores 7! And finishes with 14.Max scores 12 and finishes with 8.

Perhaps at the end of the season the Top7 for next season should be the points scored in the  actual meeting and not the Finals.

Eliminates one anomaly.

only Speedway can come up with this scoring system.

I totally agree. Speedway is not F1 or Moto GP they have one race and dish out the pts accordingly. Speedway has five races then and LCQ and a final. We had with Kubera. Scoring 6pts and ending up with 14pts Tonight as you said. Max scored 12pts but under this system ends up with 8pts Lambert ends up with 11pts! after only scoring 7pts on the night! Ridicules. Makes the sport a joke imo.
