There was some passing and the scoreline was always close so it kept the interest going. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bringing it back after Bewley got the lead was a good decision. But it wasn't Bewley who had the lead, it was Cook! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ouch Posted Tuesday at 04:18 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 04:18 PM Dan touch the tapes and was rightfully excluded. There use to be a thing where rivals or certain riders would intentionally jump as they knew they were in the eye-line of their competitor and it could make them jump into the tapes. It’s lost its regularity as riders today are mostly good mates being teammates at one of their other teams. I’ve seen it creep back into the sport recently and just wondered if others had noticed. Jaimon and Mark have mentioned it recently. No rule change is required. It’s personal choice if riders want to do it. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robinh88 Posted Tuesday at 09:36 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 09:36 PM Well done Brummies thought it was a decent meeting. I thought Zagar was excellent and Jason Edwards carrying his Redcar form on too. Not sure where the blame falls between the rider/club both Belle Vue and Brady Kurtz market themselves as professional and last night they both went down in my estimation. Maybe I should taper my expectations but telling supporters an hour before really isn't good enough. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hackett Posted Tuesday at 09:43 PM Report Share Posted Tuesday at 09:43 PM Fair play to the Brummies , not sure Lemo could believe that result. Conditions not great but both sides had to ride the track. Great effort by Zagar - welcome to the party. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Very strange Thanks, I cant disagree with that fair comments, ive had comments from a few calling me a hater when ive said i dont think we can win the league being so weak at reserve, i just think its being realistic, best to ignore those comments.

Which perhaps is why he always comes last in heat 1! Then wakes up later on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While riders shouldn't dictate to managers when they'll go out, if he'll be stronger in the second half of the meeting, use him more then? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The thing is some fans can’t separate their own bias towards the sport, I doubt anyone catching that on tv without much knowledge of speedway would be impressed let alone searching for their nearest track. Newcomers don’t want to go somewhere where they are likely to get covered in dust and the racing is all the riders riding the inside following each other. As for Tobys comments about wanting it dry and slick, I find that very shortsighted, the riders might like it like that but that sort of racing doesn’t draw crowds, how are they going to continue being paid to race when fewer and fewer are going to watch? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
