  1. Past hour
  2. Best of luck Chris. I am sure the old Rye House super fan Shadders will be the front man!
  3. Given the fact riders ride "elsewhere", and there are so few teams, it would be a perfect time to have squad systems.. Just knock the teams back to five riders each, use fhe Danish Lesgue model, and have, a minimum, two riders in your squad.. The rwo riders who have an income from riding elsewhere... Lose the RS, and the Numbers 3 and 2, and have five riders all over a four point average.. The riders at No3, and No2 level make up the squad so they can replace any riders missing.. With fixed nights, all will be available... Edit. Using this squad system would also add some pressure to the HL and SS riders in the team to perform, as there a possible replacements "on the bench".. HL's and SS's are virtually bomb proof nowadays regardless of their performances, so competition for places can only be a good thing..
  4. They can send men to the moon but can’t tell you what the weather is going to be 48 hours ahead. Worse than ever this year. Weather forecasters must be at the bottom of the least trusted professions-making estate agents and journalists look like saints.
  5. You guys love slagging everyone off on here but if you do it at least get some of the facts right. Klindt doesn't have a contract with Redcar. He was on a 28 day facility which has now expired. So all talk of bans or unexpected missing meetings is nonsense. Check with the BSPL if you want to know what basis he is being used under as Im sure they'll be transparent with you all.
  6. Philip will 100% be back at Foxhall this Thursday Apart from "seeming to try" what are peoples expectations for his scoring this season?
  7. With The British U21 Final at Redcar on the same day surely the relevant authorities should have made this the only fixture available for maximum publicity and attendance on Sunday.
  8. Today
  9. The Challenge Final has the ingredients for a very good meeting. Big scrap for those first four positions, 6 of the current GP riders in it, plus wannabe's and not forgetting Chris Harris.
  10. Guests were introduced in the 60’s as fans were sick of seeing walkovers when injury hit teams took to the track and there was a lot of unrest about the system from the get go and that continues to this day. I’ve always said if more than two members are missing from one team or a total of four from both teams then the meeting should not go ahead. The problem there is rearranging in the age where riders jet her there and everywhere. The other solution would have been to use riders from the second division and even better, buddy up with a team from that division. You are then seeing riders you wouldn’t normally see and not using riders from your direct opposition. The problem now though is double up/down is rife so it can’t work. Another solution is a squad system but there isn’t enough money in the sport to have riders sat in the bench awaiting a call. Lastly, with so few fixtures we shouldn’t be having ANY clashes where our riders are known to be required elsewhere. For us in the UK, guests are here to stay but they must be the absolute last resort and not the go to solution so currently overused.
  11. Totally agree 15 heats in 15 minutes pushed through like they do at the GP’S No excuse, I’m sorry.
  12. It’s not that bad. In the 80s I’ve watched meetings in slush.
  13. That’s in Northampton leaning up the airfence
  14. The only Bang your gonna get on Thursday is the sound of thunder.
  15. Antti Vuolas, Jordan Jenkins, Jacob Hook
  16. Is Rushens average 6.71 by any chance? Not seen it anywhere 🤡
  17. It's gonna happen you know, Harris in 2027 GP, you read it here first 😉
