You can have entertaining speedway, but still have an opinion on someone’s form. It’s the beauty of sport. No idea what you mean by the attendances comment.

foreverblue Posted 9 hours ago Report Share Posted 9 hours ago 2 hours ago, TheWellBehavedWorrall said: He’s still comfortably one of the top scorers in the league, but he’s not performing at the level we’re used to. His nightmare at Shielfield (3 points from 4 rides) instigated the dip because in our first two fixtures, he was outstanding (13+1 at Armadale and a paid maximum at home to Berwick). He went toe-to-toe with Danny King three times at home to Plymouth and King won every time. 10+2 at Plymouth wasn’t the worst input, but 4+2 of those points came when the meeting was over as a competition and Plymouth had clearly downed tools, emphasise by Garry May selecting Barker and Thompson in heat fifteen. When there was something to race for earlier in the meeting, King lowered his colours again, then he was on the end of a Nicholls and Klima 5-1. 9+1 yesterday; you’re expecting more. Thompson and Thomsen both took the chequered flag ahead of him. Even at Armadale where he had a good meeting, that complacency in the final bend cost us the win and handed the Monarchs a share of the spoils. Even at Berwick, falling and being excluded when he’s been introduced as a tactical substitute. It was over as a result of that, the meeting as a competition. So unlike him. We’ve got bigger issues than Chris Harris and by 95% of this league’s standards, he’s having a very good season, but like I said, by his usual standards, it’s not what we’re used to. Can't believe you are moaning about Harris, he sometimes starts the season slowly but by the end he is giving everything for his teams, he has been very good in the Premiership but I would have thought you could forgive him the odd off night or the odd fall. You know he will come good when it matters. Not surprised Danny King beat him, he has been riding very well recently. As you say not your biggest problem.

GM95 Posted 9 hours ago Report Share Posted 9 hours ago Glasgow should be trying to replace the 2 ‘stewards’ on the back straight before Hausl. They caused a scene because one of your fans had his foot on a yellow walkway, grabbing him before finally getting him kicked out the stadium.

lewy Posted 7 hours ago Report Share Posted 7 hours ago I wouldn't be surprised if Glasgow make a move for gilkes to replace the German lad. Gilkes will be keen to get back racing in the championship ASAP now he's declared himself fit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Speedway clubs don’t disclose attendances, so it’s an impossible question to quantify. I don’t understand why you’re asking me this.😂 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At the moment Poole have released him for at least 28 days , so not under contract, so if another clubs waves a contract for the rest of the season the said rider could take up the offer, an offer is better than a potential future offer from the club who temporary dropped him 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
