SUPERACE Posted 5 hours ago Report Share Posted 5 hours ago Been thinking about Kemp, he needs help, if Leicester want to keep him, then it should be only if he accepts to work with a Sports Psychologist. The issues with stopping when at the back are in is head, and rather than throwing him on to the scrap heap, it would be worth trying to help him. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Congratulations to the Witches on their first title since TRick, Gollob & Clouting! . . . and congratulations from me. I well remember the 1998 season and the winning Witches team including one certain resident of my town, Bydgoszcz. I am so glad that the 2025 winning Witches team also includes one certain resident of Bydgoszcz, who not only won the Polish Ekstraliga Championship title, but also the British Premiership League title. Up the Witches ! ! ! 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Especially chuffed for Danny King who has now won league titles at all three levels of British Speedway, I wonder how many riders can say that? Dan Bewley achieved the same with the Colts, Comets & Aces. Maybe only Daniels can do this. 🤣 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It could be the most average meeting you’ve ever seen, but a crowd and atmosphere like that just makes a world of difference doesn’t it. The gate receipts last night will have helped Louis no end and good on him. He could have built less expensive teams over the last few years and saved himself some cash but he’s used every bit of help from the sponsors to push the boat out and recruit the best team he could so he deserves that money spinner last night. 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Can’t be as bad as his critics think.Quite sure Berwick fans would have him back (if he wants to return).Everything’s depending on this marvellous restructuring we are dreaming of no doubt. You can keep him... and Morris... add in a pinch of Craig Cook and you almost have a team that won't finish a match 😂 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to the man himself he doesn't stop when he's at the back and always continues to finish races. I guess you along with myself must be imagining it.

If he is in another team’s declaration then he can guest whether he is an assessed average rider or not. Assessed riders cannot guest as per the rule book but who cares now anyway, it’s not as if any one is watching. BSF & BSPL advocate guests above team members which to me seem wrong. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cowboy cookie returns? Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago After taking time to reflect on last night. Two meetings this week involving two great sides who ride each others home circuits as well as their own. A great crowd at Leicester on Monday & a massive one last night at Ipswich. No idea on the figure but easily the best I have possibly ever seen on the heath. For me personally as an Ipswich fan the right result. Well done to all the lads & to Kenyan for covering Adam so well. Even if your not involved all season you are still a witch & it was great to see Rew lay it on the line at times. That shows the regard these boys hold he club once they have riden for us. Well done to Leicester for making it a cracking night, your fans are superb had some great conversation with them. A great advert for the sport & hopefully gives everyone a shot in the arm & reminds them what this sport could be. For Emil it must have felt like riding at Torun with pack stands! Hopefully it’s not the last we have seen of Emil but I have a hunch that that chapter may have come to a fitting conclusion. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The challenge is to get that kind of jeopardy and consequence into the qualifiers... And to get a decent away following at each meeting to deliver some atmosphere.. The racing today is no better or worse than 50 years ago when I was a kid, I would say.... The huge difference is the lack of atmosphere nowadays driven by such low (mainly home team following) crowd turnouts for the POQ's... Back then even an average meeting was worth attending given the crowd participation and interaction.. Give the majority of the POQ's greater relevance and the sport can only benefit... Another opportunity also maybe to get the league completed before the KO Cup... A night where a team wins the league should then generate at least one more meeting to maintain the "feel good" momentum created by the victory... Instead, we invariably have a six month hiatus and when the "Champions" do come back, several of their riders will often have left to meet team average rules... It would also give those not reaching the PO's a chance for silverware thus maintaining interest in the season for their fans, with every meeting having relevance... NB. I do accept there is always a possibility that some non completed POQ's could still get run after the final to give the Champs an extra match!!!
