FYI Workington didn't require a crowd of 1500 in 2018. But unfortunately until the last few trophy winning meetings crowds weren't anywhere near break even . Hopefully now we are at the GT tyres Northside arena all money spent ( food,drink, car park etc ) goes to keeping the speedway alive

Russian bot farms helping the demise of Speedway in the UK... and they're doing a cracking job! Under the command of Rob Godfrov! -
If we can get all the riders to turn up it should be a good tussle over the 2 legs šš»

Have you checked out from the cup as well?

There must be a concern about Lawson, because he missed a Danish match recently citing illness. If he has an illness, perhaps it's finally caught up with him? Otherwise, there could be something else outside the sport causing an issue ...

They donāt strike me as the kind of owners/management that will make changes easily. Bangs was probably an extreme case and you get the impression they didnāt really wanna drop him either. They seem to like/want to back their riders as long as possible which although could become irritating to supporters in the long term especially if certain riders arenāt performing, itās difficult to criticise.

I feel the same. Iāve already mentally checked out of this season. Even if we finish fourth we aināt gonna win it so Lynn can have it if they want š

Lions v Witches, Monday 6th July
SPEEDY69 replied to tocha's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Why is he suspended? It was speedway related accident and he has a rib injury? -
Not a bit of dust, just how we like it.

Only exists for bonus points I believe.

Has the super heat now been dropped? Don't remember reading about it.

So did 1200 Belle Vue fans. Crowds are never as big for televised league meetings. Workington needed 1500 fans like you when they closed in 2018 but unfortunately not all fans are diehards like us and will find cheaper ways to enjoy the sport.

Win Thursday or lose Thursday,, does it really matter,, nah -
Serious actions for Ipswich management is required. They pulled the trigger on Pedersen for PHB, so it shows they arenāt afraid to make decision. I personally feel Scotty and Lawson need to go. Donāt know if either of these can come in but Ellis and Rew would fit the witches and start to feel like we have our team back. This season is awful and feels like a bunch of individuals. After last season, and yes I know a lot of crap went on in the winter, but we lost our team. Keep king, Brennan, Edwards, and I like pedersen and certainly Tobi. But now Lawson has to be removed from this team. Scotty has been there for us throughout so this isnāt a dig at him but even he knows he cant be competitive away from Foxhall which is sad but a reality. This isnāt a retirement fund club, you want people on seats, sort this team out or risk losing more fans.

British final 15th August

I'm sure I read somewhere at some point that Torun have a fixture but can't provide a link as I can't remember š -
As a positive, its great to see the likes of Zagar, Harris and Iversen still scoring points. I remember seeing them riding for Trelawny and Newport at Trelawny in 2003 , crazy to think 23 years on they would still be putting in respectable scores in the British top division.
