TheWellBehavedWorrall Posted June 20 Report Share Posted June 20 53-37, Tigers win. I’m in London for work, so had hoped to catch the meeting on a live stream, but don’t think the club has one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute credit to the track staff track was amazing, I went expecting to come home covered but there was absolutely no dust whatsoever. Great work from all memebers of the team tonight, Hodder looked really quick tonight and Perry was looking competitive as well. Vilads had a bit of an unfortunate night with bike issues but he looked fast and wasn't afraid to attack. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Robinh88 Posted June 21 Report Share Posted June 21 (edited) Very impressed with my first visit to Ashfield in over a decade. Great nights entertainment on a marvellous race surface which allowed the riders to express themselves. I left the stadium buzzing. Not a fan of Nicolai Kindt but thought last night he looked really classy. He has been struggling at this level but no issues last night.

Nicolai is a classy rider, professional with good equipment, rode well for the 2018 treble winning Comets at Ashfield scored 18+1 from 7 rides in the Championship fixture. Great place to watch Speedway. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post SharpenRake Posted June 21 Popular Post Report Share Posted June 21 (edited) I keep reading on this forum - mainly the premiership section - that speedway has loads of problems, for example, track preparation, no atmosphere, no kids, no young adults just 'old folk', riders not interacting with fans and missing riders. Track preparation - Despite the heat, it was still 25C when I got home at 10.30pm, there was no dust whatsoever and there wasn't an over watered track just a superb smooth one that provided fantastic racing. No atmosphere - the main stand which was virtually full, roared when the 2 youngsters got their first 5-1 in Heat 2 and thereafter when Barker and Howarth, etc, etc had great battles yet again people got to their feet cheering, clapping and clearly enjoying the evening's entertainment. Nicolai Klindt seemed amazed at the applause he got on his laps of honour and came around again after his last race. The back straight terracing and other stands also were busy. No kids - there were a lot kids some of whom participated in two races one for under 10s and one for over 10s - an idea I believe pinched from Plymouth! No young adults - again good numbers some of whom had brought along their kids. Old folk - yes quite a few but all happy to let some of the new fans know what was going on. No interaction with fans - laps of honour saluting the fans and lots of autographs later. Missing riders - both teams a full strength. Yes speedway has problems but last night was just pure entertainment. There were a couple of fans from Leicester in the stand and they seemed a bit surprised by the whole package. Proved you don't need to doctor tracks to win meetings at home, Mr Dixon 😉 Edited June 24 by SharpenRake 14 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Noelinho Posted June 21 Report Share Posted June 21 Yes, the racing was fantastic and the home fans went home very happy with a good win. Nicolai was superb, Bomber made sure he got him in heat 15 though. Pretty much all the riders showed some decent moves. Track preparation was immaculate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s a pity that more tracks don’t put in the effort that Glasgow do.We just get a book load of excuses.Its meant to be professional sport though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
