It wasn’t meant in bad taste at all so apologies if it came across that way. I think it’s totally fair that if they’ve asked Ben Trigger to work on his fitness and professionalism to ask the same about Ben Barker, and I mean it in the nicest way that last year was a poor year for Barker who has ridden at the very top of this sport and if Plymouth are to have a good season then they will really need Ben B to step up and become the 2nd heat leader and increase his average.    I agree that Ben B is a great rider to watch and always gives it 110 percent, I’m also pleased to see Ben T get a championship place and hope the gladiators have a great season. 

Slight change of track but I went to Somerset on Friday and went on to the oak tree arena site, they have a greggs, McDonald’s, screwfix and ford  to the right as you drive in off the main road now and the old bar on the first bend is an energy company’s office now but they havent touched where the track was,you can still see the outline on google earth, so why couldn’t they have kept the speedway there ? 

Extremely poor taste comment, good lad is Ben and he will be okay imho 

Really good idea, keeps the team on track, gauge crowd levels and potential for seeing how team members pull together, before entering league next year 

Who even holds the promoting rights to Mildenhall?   Isn't it Lee Chipchase and Greg Palmer?    Because we're hearing nothing from them.   The main character in all this seems to be someone with a dubious past who presumably would never get any kind of official's licence from the BSP.

Does the same apply to Ben Barker then?
