Just to confirm doing rest of the season at Lynn. Can be at No. 7 until end of August. Bringing 3 bikes plus 4 engines plus Polish mechanic. (No GTR door stop - lol) had good season with Wilki Krosno. Last home meeting broke the track record there in 68.32secs 410m Poland’s longest track. Really looking forward to the rest of season at Lynn and to try to make playoffs. Been asked by a number of teams if he wishes to double up, but has refused all offers as wants to concentrate on Lynn. Hope this gives you info you wanted. See you 25th July

1. Lion Madsen 2. Antonio Lindor Back 3. Toffee Chrisp Harris 4. Freddie Lindtgren 5. Matej Starbar 6. Black Magic Janowski 7. Vaclav Milik Tray A team that would have been superbly led by Neil Quality Street as Team Manager I am sure..

That's up to him but don't complain about low attendances and losing money.

Very professional set up in Suffolk... What with the website and match day programme. Also great attire for the riders including team shirts, coats and fleeces. And not forgetting matching team suits and bike covers.

It’s all about VFM - and speedway in its current guise is miles away from that - IMHO

They moan when he posts and they moan when he doesn’t. Unbelievable

What from trolling EVERYTHING Poole 24/7 to nothing overnight,yeah right

perhaps gavan has retired from the forum after last Thursday

I like playground stuff.. But I don't like playgrounds..

NBJ is coming over to UK to ride for Berwick so hardly resting cos of his illness and he has accepted at least one guest booking! Why can they not just tell the truth and say they think Ricky will perform better? Instead of half excuses.

Good return to Somerset by Covatti (3,R,3,3 = 9)

Maybe the speedway is part of it, the circus, that is.

I'd say it has to be somewhere between the two for good racing.

I like vodka,,, I like cider,,,, but I don't like it together. Also I hate tomatoes,,,, really hate them,,,, but I like tomato sauce I like short skirts,,, I like curvy women,,,,, but short skirts on a curvy women is a no no

Track record means a fast track, not necessarily a racing track, with different racing lines.

That's quite right....it was a 'track' imbalance....however, it opens up a whole new debate about whether the rider has quick enough reactions to control the bike, like Tungate did a bit later on and also it questions the rider's balance/style.....being of a small/light frame probably doesn't help JB, as I'm sure a hell of a lot of strength is needed to hang on in those situations. He's a brave rider, but may be doesn't have the physical attributes needed to avoid sticky situations? just a thought.......

Health and safety would go into meltdown just looking at that photo. What Berwick speedway (and football) would give for a crowd like that these days.

Would not fit the packet if a different shape.

You do realise this Debbs isn’t me?

I just can’t fathom why anyone would want to make the inside line at one of the best speedway tracks around so grippy thus turning it into a one liner. Baffling.

Club have said R/R tomorrow. I hope Musielak is fully fit as otherwise it’ll put massive strain on the team. Here’s how i’d Play it.....Vissing heat 1, Musielak heat 6, Rasser heat 8 & Batch heat 11

Part of me is pleased that Porsing is coming back. Always thought he was a rider who had so much to give. Unfortunate, his form was too erratic, and his his good scores were as frequent as his bad ones were.. Cant help thinking this has come too late to rescue the season and should have been explored months ago.. I would be much more excited if they announced we were getting a new track man, who has been given a free hand to produce decent track. Where once we use to be ultra keen for the next meeting to come round, now we look for any excuse not to go, cause we are so fed up watching drab processional races...... Will he ever learn......

As well as moaning we like to queue,,,, Normally moaning about the queues we are in

Spot on. If every club (no exceptions) had a professional website & social media approach, matching team suits and bike covers and a properly prepared track it wouldn’t cure every problem but the sport would come across one hundred times better than it currently does. As you say the bar representing the acceptable bare minimum needs to be raised way, way higher than it is now.

Last Thursday's wasn't bad!!!!

I guarantee he will be back if Ippo win at Poole on Thursday

It's not about what you look like, it's whether you can win at Poole or not! Just do it!

You're all (me included now) giving him what he wants.. wasting your own time on a thread of his. He'll be sat there laughing. How about simply not posting on anything he, it, she, starts?

We have replaced S.Lambert with Porsing,so there's one option

Yes but you don't need to prepare it to that extent. Just let it develop during the meeting. One of the better meetings this season was when we didn't get the bull about track records, just prepared a sensible track and all but left it for the whole meeting. The racing was terrific. Although the track this season has been a bit of a dogs in racing terms, to be fair to Chapman, inconsistency of track preparation has been an issue for many seasons at the EoES, mainly due to long breaks between meetings meaning it's always like starting again. When there's a group of meetings then they seem to get some consistency but we quickly return to square one when you can't see the next meeting over the horizon.

Love the spin that it is all to help NBJ in recovering from his illness

A report in Speedway World gave the eight qualifiers for the final of this competition, to be held on 21st June. They were Dennis Newton, winner of the meeting with 15, Jim Tebby 14, Stan Bedford 13, Dave Slater 11, Gil Goldfinch 11, Stan Crouch 9, Bernie Aldridge 9, Alan Briggs 8.

The track isn’t ruined. There has been some fantastic racing on it this season but Monday wasn’t good. Seems fairly simple but the inside needs to be slicker than the outside. Then you get the quality of racing that we all want and know can be produced on that track.

I think Ablitt’s problem is he never really did much competitive racing on a 500? As opposed to the Thompson twins and Palin who did a lot of before meeting races and the whole winter amateur meetings at Scunthorpe etc. He only raced the 250 then when it came to racing the 500 he actually had very little experience on it hence why he’s so raw and crashes?

Lynn used to be one of the best race tracks in the country, so it's nothing new.

Bomber has put on twitter he asked if he could travel out on Friday and was told no.

Shows how wide track used to be. The days before 2 metre fences.

Glad Jacob Bukhave went to try them out and had 3 wins and a third place there.

Ipswich certainly weaker without him.

I would love to follow the team away from home but commitments don't allow at the moment. One day hopefully. You're right, I am positive about Berwick speedway, basically because I enjoy my Saturday nights with friends. I often think that speedway fans must be the most negative people around. The sport is absolutely unique, speed and power up close.

Hope so as he deserves a place

Totally agree with mmmmethanol on that score. Ben has been at No 2 all season & scored quite well at Arlington but has struggled away. But this is the case for most No 2’s at every other club in the Championship away from their home track. Ben has not had the luxury of riding down at reserve this season like others have at other clubs & OK Jason is probably worthy of a run in a Championship team, I just hope it doesn’t effect his confidence like others who have tried the step up, only to eventually be dropped and lose interest in riding speedway & calling it a day. Another thing to note is that with this change being made Georgie will now ride at No 2 meaning only having 4 programmed rides & not a possible 7 rides as he would have at reserve resulting in the possible loss of the big scores he was achieving at Arlington. Personally I think this change would have been justified if 2 riders Ben and Kyle as the other had been dropped enabling the Eagles to bring in Jason as a 2 pointer & a potential 7 pointer to be the 4th heat leader. Could have brought in Bradley Wilson Dean if he is fit.

The odd rider like Ben Howe sometimes made the track look okay,,,, but on the whole it's pretty rubbish,, unless you wanna go back further to riders like sigalos and Cook,, who made many meeting look good

Ellis - Riss = Ellis (round pb) agertoft - Andersen = Andersen castagna - mpt = mpt ayres - Stewart = stewart r/r - Allen = Allen hume - Woolley = Hume 1000% shanes - greaves = Shanes

Im going to be that person and say rock is more fun to watch being made than to eat....

Thank you. But when false accusations have been made you have to say something , all this finger pointing with out facts! plus what they have said is on the point of defamation. Those that started this vented attack should be ashamed.

Track was wider before they were put out of Shielfield. Brick wall on 1st & 2nd bend was not there then, plus no 2 metre fence so straights were wider as well. I lap of the track then was 440yds.Starting gate also further back, in line with tunnel footie players appear from.

The bloke is a pillock and a troll. As usual, his angle is to hijack a thread and swerve it onto his beloved facebook groups he is in with his mate Karl Fiala - he's rude and if the shoe was on the other foot he'd be having a right old hissy fit. Keep up the good work Mimmo and best wishes to the Mrs.
