That's a great theory, but it doesn't work in practice when the rain is expected at the start time and there's a curfew - and it's not like fans are known for being understanding when there's a rain delay during a meeting! People moan either way.

The sport never used to be like it is now

And that's why you make the league fit the fixtures you want, not the other way round, as I said a while back.

Thats why we should run the Championship league season every week from late March/early April until a cut off at the end of June, with playoffs from the first week in July. Eight home meetings in 12/13 weeks is doable with ample time to reschedule rainoffs. Later rounds of cup comps can be run after this if required. The point where enough is enough is ever closer. Even Harris had a dig about this at the Oxford meeting on BSN.

https://ipswichwitches.co/coleman-writes-to-witches-fans-following-wts-sparta-wroclaw-strategic-partnership-announcement/ “It’s fair to say we are already working on our team for 2027, and we are excited to see the kind of side we can build with the luxury of months to recruit riders, rather than facing the last minute scramble we did for 2026 as most of the teams were already assembled by the time we came to the table” I really like this fella 😁

AND THE GIRLS TO ENTERTAIN YOU!

Patrick Fitzwilliam and William Fitzpatrick were great cumming from behind.

Events on any given Sunday can be different from week to week. Track breaks are after heats 4 ,7 &12 with 12 being the interval. That's a set routine and barring events taking there toll these still have to be followed. It is hoped that events don't make things move at a slow pace and everything goes smoothly thus making your day more enjoyable. I'm sure that it is hoped that you can return and that the day doesn't turn into the slow day you experienced previously.

Phew

And at the end of the season fixtures will be bunched up and unable to fit them in either do to bad weather or the cut off date.

Nah Doyle and Woryna collided on the run to first turn, Woryna footrest got hooked in Doyle’s bike so neither could turn and they collected jacks back wheel en route to the fence, zero to do with conditions just one of them unfortunate incidents 👍

It'll be seven weeks next Friday since the last home meeting and it's ridiculous and it's no wonder people drift away from speedway. Imagine the football being postponed for that length of time during the summer. One day promoters will find out that there is a material called tarpaulin which could be cut into parts to the shape of the corners and laid together over it. Both sides are banked and rain water would drain onto the grass and the meeting could take place after they've been rolled off. Just saying.

Pleased for him as when he was at Ipswich the other year you could see that he gated well and had ability but often just got overtaken, its seems his career was perhaps a slower burn than Dan but he starting to show the decent scores now!

Got to admit I wondered about this before I saw the worsening change to the forecast. Bad weather working in our favour for a change……🐯

Neil Collins when he was riding for Edinburgh in the Powderhall era. The crowd used to loudly sigh on the rare occasions he made the gate.

How is it 'Throwing him under a bus?' It's not unreasonable to expect a couple of points from him whilst riding at Reserve.
