Craig Cook just been an idiot again, track staff were repairing damaged fence by starting gate plenty of people on track, Cook rode round to the starting gate even though referee put red lights on. Clerk of course walked up to him and told him he had to leave and he didn’t, so clerk of the course pulled his cut out.

It was a year ago today Dan Bewley broke his leg in 9 places as well as shoulder and wrist. What a day to break track record!

Peter Craven, I was there at Wembley in 1962 when he won his 2nd World championship

Harris zero points,,, put him on a tac sub lol,,,, Hawkins what ya smoking He did do well though, second to last

That and the continued watering down of the product.

No T/S if you needed them and very limited choice if you get another injury. Don't worry Gav I know Ippo haven't got that much experience of the play-offs but trust me Poole have.

Berwick have signed Tomas H Jonasson until the end of the season.

Well that is some unexpectedly bad news, just in time for Home and Away v Poole. Douglas the Lurpak trumpeter? Desmond Douglas the table tennis player? Carl Douglas the singer of Everybody was Kung Fu fighting? Douglas is not Bart Zmarzlik.

I think it does personally. We still have A strong reserve now Allen drops back there, and Sargeant actually rides Ipswich pretty well. If he doesn’t, he’ll get three rides and Allen will get an extra ride. In theory anyway! Getting Iversen in may also give the others a lift, particularly Harris who should now feel less pressure and gets away from number 1.

Wouldn't be surprised, in the best interests of the sport

Total thrashing, could have hit 70. Another good crowd and Swindon go top. Ippo were embarrassing. Vissing won rider of the night. Record Premiership score this season, home and away against the Witches. Go Robins!!!

Is the manager really that clueless? Why oh why does Louis (supposedly in charge) not do what any right minded individual would do? A sad indictment of how a great name like Ipswich has plummeted in a once decent sport which unfortunately has little credibility left and partly because of one mans ambition to keep a third rate higher division going at any cost. Speedway in this country is not on the same level as most overseas nations and should by now have learnt to plough its own furrow. Each club suffers from irregular weekly speedway which affects the form of many riders (albeit double up helps but also raises the risk profile for a team) fixed race nights are a failure as far as numbers through the gate is concerned (you have the odd exception) and more often than not each meeting is a team of either six men plus Mr R/R thereby short changing the paying public or you have rider select. Little wonder even the stalwarts are walking away. Also rans is how to sum up the witches and they might just as well have a clear out now as they have little else to commend the continuation in the current league structure. Buy in an overseas rider by all means but get rid of the dead wood in the team.

Sheer madness to have R/R at 5. Always put it at two and have a strong rider in heat 8. Plus if you lose a reserve you are in the deep stuff

Nice to see Vissing backing up the promise from Thursday.

Awful start to the meeting. This sort of crap is going to put off any newcomers here tonight.

Poole is the best ~~~~~~~ track in the country.

According to the proboards site, 25 August 2018. That, however, is nit picking. I saw the crash at Workington and it was truly awful - I was actually relieved that his injuries were what they were. To break the track record today would have been a fantastic achievement no matter what. To do it after what happened is a remarkable one.

Got here a bit early,,,,, getting my moneys worth.

I think there may be a lot of truth in that, but it is also true that there are less and less and less fans, at all of those tracks, because the truth is that only two or three races in any meeting are worthy of the name. That is one of the main reasons why the number of UK supporters has plummetted over the last 10 to 15 years. Domestic UK speedway is increasingly perceived as poor VFM.

Com on poole

Hope he doesn’t waste on GP Challenge, he is always moaning that he is finding it hard to make money from the sport.

I do not understand what some of the BV fans are whinging about. BV needed to stop KL getting anything out of this meeting, which we did. As far as I am concerned Job Done. Lastword is the only one to get it right. Apart from all the delays I quite enjoyed us stuffing someone up for a change.

At least Gav don't lick the promoters bum at every given chance.

They have improved you don't need wellie's now.!!!!

Don't think they are as bad as they used to be...actually appears as if they are cleaned at least twice a season

So if this is now Lynn's play off hopes as good as over along with Peterborough already no where, its just Ipswich to go then Busters got the hat trick of non play off teams still i bet hes still happy as its Big Van Banger day at the AFA today

With Glasgow’s league position I should think their fans will be flocking down, especially with a chance of seeing their local rivals beaten.

We're quite happy to cheer on the Bandits first . Be a nice warm up act before the serious stuff starts

COME ON STARS, christ we need this win!

For me Lindback will not get a wild card Madsen, Zmarzlik, Emil, Vaculik, Freddie, Dudek.............those 6 seem safe Magic, Laguta, Kolodziej, Doyle........2 of those 4 will qualify Tai and Hancock will get 2 wildcards I would imagine the other 2 wildcards could be the 2 riders that dont make it out of the 4 i listed 7th, 8th 9th and 10th (currently Kolodziej and Doyle) The only other rider who may be considered is Lambert , but i only see him getting a wildcard if firstly Greg retires or secondly the organisers dont go for Laguta or Kolodziej if they finish outside the top 8 People with a lack of knowledge bang on about 'new blood'..would love the names of these 'new blood ' riders who could make the series better and be competitive

Typical ipswich strengthen just when Poole are about to visit!

Yeah. I said it before a wheel had turned. Buster spreading himself and maybe his cash to thin.

Delighted to see Dan break the track record today. Times are usually nowhere near so I wondered if I would ever see NKI's time bettered but Dan showed us all today that he's still on course to be a major force. Well done, the boy!

Mother of the bride is reserved for Peterborough

Think I will give that a miss thanks,,, I can already smell them from here.

It’s not dry, they been constantly watering and spiking, Kings Lynn should be right at home on this grippy track.

It's still better than anything served up at Leicester

Wasn't there, but saw photo in the Kilb book. Other faves Hitchy Ashby Kilb Broady Keener Steady Killer Adams etc.,

Had his rosette on the wall, and remember that terrible evening when he lost his life.

Will not go for that gap? Have you seen his bend four passes? And if you read my original post... I am talking about our team on paper... It does look one of the best in the league imo... But on track we have collapsed... I'd rather have Ostergaard and Wethers over Stewart and Andersen any day of the week... So there ya go

Tigers are growling.

Can you remember when Kilb beat Briggo in heat 1 at the Abbey for the Exeter Falcons Doris.?

Kent have Stoneman as guest for Ledwith & r/r for Jenkins, Mulford at reserve. Should be a comfortable win for Kent. Next Saturday at Leicester is a problem for Kent though. Kemp, Jenkins, Ledwith & Mulford all missing.

Ostergaard gates is very hard to catch & get your view on either Stewart but which Anderson you on about as I wouldn't have either in my team to replace weathers as he is an easy 5 pointer home & away without a doubt.. the lad is a proper 100%a

Most of the stadiums that also have Stock Car racing already have the loops under the track for the transponders with each formula having strick rules where the transponder must be mounted. As an example F2 Stock Car results from Mildenhall last night are on the Speedhive siteso you can see exactly who passed who and when in each race. Each driver has their own transponder and is responsible for ensuring it is working. I am sure Speedway riders could easily do exactly the same.

someone who spends all day raving about his latest know it all stupid idea on facebook , and constantly coming up with conspircarcies against the BSPA and individiual promoters . absolute nutcase

Should be open to all. But ...... Surely likes of Bomber should take stock and call time on GP aspirations. Said before and will say it again riders who compete in div 2 of British Speedway will never be world champion and would struggle to be in top 8 GP riders. Easy money but does not enhance GP chances when you don’t ride abroad. Woffinden was spot on when he said that.

Copied from the Polish site today for the Torun - Zielona Gora meeting An accident between Jack Holder and N Pedersen " The Australian entered Pedersen without a pardon ", you have to laugh at the translations

Whoever is in the series it's almost certain there will be 2/3/4 riders who are adrift over the course of the season and don't really look like having a chance of winning a GP. I agree that it would be nice to see some new faces but if the likes of Zagar and Iversen qualify then they deserve to be there. Would be different if they were being given a wildcard year after year but if they are proving themselves as the best of the rest in these meetings then fair enough.

Your as bad as each other . Neither of you can leave it. you both want to have the last word so this is just going to run and run. Until one of you actually grow up.
