people should not judge riders just because they are missing . we all get ill at some point during the year . on the other hand, richard has elderly grandparents and maybe a this time he is required to be around . so until you know for deffo whats going on , its better to keep quiet instead of speculating .

From what I remember, quite the contrary! Injury wrecked what looked like being his best season, can't recall what year off the top of my head. Always liked Ty, passionate rider and a very funny, dry sense of humour. Pleased to see him making a good start to the current campaign.

Well another good reason to call it off. KingsLynn Football Club will have the play off semi final at home now on Wednesday evening since they won 3-1 today. so a lot of people will be attending this instead of the speedway. So fingers crossed they will call the speedway off aa the weather is looking about as crap as the team assembled for Wednesday. it’s stupid having the two major teams in Lynn playing at home on the same evening

7 day ban for you then.

looks like our favourite speedway uploader has moved to cda after youtube blocked him. Motor - ROW available here - https://www.cda.pl/video/22227324c you're welcome

And perhaps if we give Wayne a chance he may too. He is different to anyone we've had recently, more on stirring up the crowd, than possibly the speedway info etc., which he obviously lacks, especially someone like Kev who has been and is a lifelong Witches fan, and his knowledge is immense, and Rob, equally as good, who has been on the mike in previous years. The alternative could likely be "zzzzzzzz" TBF at the moment, you seem to have a down on the team and now the presenter, early days for all really.

To get UK and Polish speedway in perspective, that is about two weeks worth of premiership fixtures ( in fine weather ).

I'm new to watching Polish Speedway and I must say I was expecting better racing than what I've seen so far. I was expecting it to be more up to GP standard with the quality of riders on view but it's closer to gate and go British Speedway I've said many times that British Speedway should market itself as an extreme sport and not continue with the family sport promotion. The old codgers (myself included) will continue to turn up come what may. Look at the divide between the ages of those in the pits to those on the terraces!! I watched a virtual race on Coral.co.uk the other day and it was far more entertaining than anything I've seen so far this season at Leicester! And the race was only 2 laps... perhaps that's the way to go

I think all talk of covers is an unnecessary expense and not required. If the rain continues to fall the meeting would never be on any way. If the raining had stopped, our track is as good as at other when it comes to draining the water. When the track was sodden, I have witnessed Buster and his gang, scrape the top off and relay new shale and have it racable within an hour. That situation is probably unique to Lynn because of the concrete infield, allowing the old wet shale to be bladed off the track to dry out. Buster has all the equipment required to lay a new track , whereas others are not that fortunate. The main issues with the weather is not the track conditions , but the lack of spectator numbers that turn up , making the meeting a financial disaster. Track covers would not make any difference to that problem....

I spoke to Dave Younghusband at Brough last Sunday and told him that you thought it was him and not me. He said something like "how can anybody like you with your looks get mistaken for me". I think it was a compliment ?

This looks to me to speed up the decline in Speedway.

Prince Berry, nah I don't like it.

And neither did Philip Rising

Probably this rule was brought in, the same as the 4 min rule I suspect, as the majority have to suffer for the minority who take the pi$$

I think I just pm you

I am in favour of this seven day rule, if that means we have to go against Ipswich without Richard then so be it, the rule just proves that riders are not missing from meetings at a whim because it has bigger implications than just one match, in fact in Richard's case he will also miss both of Somerset's meetings next week too so he has had to sacrifice another four meetings as a result of missing tonight's.

Thanks Badge, but there was no need. I know my English and grammar is not the best. Most of the time I don't even know what I'm going on about.

Are you Lawson in disguise

But if he now not ill how can Lakeside have a guest for a non speedway injury?

Why do I have a down on the presenter? I thought he was okay, it's Fozz I don't like. And I don't have a problem with the team either. It should be a title chasing team. Oh back to the presenter, you said he has a hard task following Kevin and all I said was Kevin had a hard task following John but he did okay, meaning there is no reason why the new presenter shouldn't do okay. Hope that explains my thoughts. Maybe my grasp of basic English isn't very good.

How is it a stupid rule? Last season there were lots of riders racing 1 night, ill another night and racing the next night. The rules have been changed to stop this as it's the fans who loose out when the riders pick what meetings they race in (the riders caused the rule change). The way they can get round it is you get away with your first illness and then get 7 days off for other times you are ill.

Think we should get a point here at least with the Aces weakened with Bjerre for Worrall and it being Drodz's first meeting back, so he could score anything! Wright is scoring well everywhere for us so think we could sneak something.

Is this one from the Chris Neath book of excuses?

It shouldn't matter. If the rulebook says you should be off for 7 days you should be missing for 7 days. Was it not brought in to stop riders picking and choosing their meetings (Lakeside are receiving a facility for him).

In that case, Richard will not be eligible for the KO Cup legs against Ipswich next Thursday and Friday. 16.5.1(h) is sick or carrying a non-speedway injury for which a Medical Certificate must be supplied to the SCB within 48 hours of the sickness / injury occurring in which case the Rider will receive a mandatory 7 days suspension of his SCB Registration from the day of the meeting.

From the official Newcastle Diamonds website: " Team building for the Newcastle "Boiler Technical Services" Diamonds over the latter part of the winter came in for a bit of a bashing it has to be aid, but the managerial plan seems to be falling into place." I suspect we need to go back to the drawing board. Might be the rather embarassing situation where the no 7 ends up being no 1 after the first official averages come into effect.

That weakens Lakeside IMO ,but will add to entertainment value.

Delete my post

Good to hear some positive comments about Wayne, Kevin was going to be a hard act to follow

Think we need to drop Szczepaniak. Riding awful even lost to Alfie Bowtell. Does Klindt fit when the new averages are released.

Thing is if Shanes' German commitment was in the diary before the BSPA got their act together with a date for this I can't blame him at all, especially if it's decent money over there.

A 15 point maximum in fact. An opportunity exists to completely revamp this side. Out go Harris, Kennett, Robson and Clegg. In come Richie Worrall, Ricky Wells, Paul Starke and Ben Morley. Very harsh but possible and fits.

Thats a good post mate. I defy all the mouthy people on here to spend a day lying covers then taking them up, in the pouring rain. it is not, a 10 minute job. they would run for the hills. You can beat most conditions, but sometimes even with all the equipment its nigh on imposible. Thats our lovely British weather for you..

Announced attendance last night at Leszno 13500

Don't think it will look pretty.

The sound system has had some teething problems with complete failure for a number of heats on opening night and some intermitent volume levels at other times so far. It is a significant improvement and seemed almost there on Thursday. Well done to the club for taking the action they have. Wayne has been confident, enthusiastic and engaging. Any errors have been minor and few. You can tell such a task is his profession. Well done Wayne for a really good start in the role.

Would solve alot of problems for speedway....or create more.

I was able to watch Ivan's funeral from Australia from a livestream 90 minutes. Emotional, very interesting, great pics and clips and so great to be watch! When the bagpipes play New Zealand's national anthem went Ivan's coffin was driven away .. l had a few tears. I hope that the livestream has now recorded and is still to watch. Really wonderful watch. (There is right through the flicking film was very poignant). https://livestream.com/FuneralLivestreamingAustralia/events/8173657/videos/174019226

Obviously want Robert to win this as a Lynn fan but part of me would like to see Bewley win it as it could help take his career and development to the next level.

ZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZZ

I buy £19 tickets, use a free app instead of a programme & eat before we go into the stadium (with a voucher if I can find one). Pretty cheap if you want it to be. Hotels I agree can be pricey but I've never paid more than £90 a night in all the years I've been going.

What a joke !! The fact that Lynn agreed to this meeting tells me all that we need to be know. We cancel meetings because of the effect the weather would have on the crowd and then arrange to run a meeting when half a team is missing . You couldn't make this up...... Why not switch this fixture to Thursday when all the riders could've rode, or just give Swindon the points without bothering to race, it would save the embarrassment, it cuts-out the financial outlay, it would save hours of work and let the sport be left to die quicker...... You can add me to the list of those not bothering to go ....... .

Congratulations to Paulco and Elaine on their wedding today.

It will not NOT be shown on a live stream as they said they haven't got the resources after extensive technical research Are they for real this lot in charge??????

It's the Monster girls going around on bikes in just their bikinis
