Sensible decision, as per Scunthorpe v Newcastle and Leicester v Berwick as well, but prepare for someone to turn up tonight, who hasn't checked all day to see whether it was still on or not, and complain that they weren't personally notified5 points

Fair play to Plymouth I'd bought an Online Ticket for this match and had a very polite "match off" e-mail off the Club / Ticket Agent at about 10 past 8, well before anything appeared on Social Media. Disappointing but I'll look forwards to the rearranged fixture.4 points

Team changes are fine, but what about team managers? Would it be worth bringing in Trevor Swales?3 points

Rowe wants to ride more in Poland where he has offers, good contacts from a spell in 2020 and also potentially fast bikes prepared by one of the top UK tuners based over there. If that's where he wants to focus people should respect that and he certainly doesn't have the big fish in a small bowl some UK riders suffer from and have all of their careers. He's not going to be riding for any Friday / Saturday / Sunday track in UK on that basis and as U24 league is on a Tuesday in Poland that really narrows his CL options you'd think for a home track and he'd miss a lot of away matches. Fait play to the kid, he's showing ambition3 points

What if the dog isn't at all bothered by the 'noisy environment'? I always took a dog with me when going alone to Oxford, Wolverhampton, Peterborough, Coventry or Leicester. None of them have ever shown the slightest concern about noisy motorbikes, in fact quite the opposite as they just went to sleep on a blanket while the match was on. Border Collies too that are supposed to be lively.2 points

Interesting sidebar here, in that all the moaners who claim they were left standing outside the turnstiles when a match has been called off earlier would have no worries if they had -- as more and more folk are doing, for so many things as well as speedway -- booked online. It really is the way to go in 2022.......2 points

The bit in bold make it sound like you are questioning BV as a racetrack based on last night alone, if I've misunderstood you then fair enough. Last night was a half decent watch without hitting the heights that the NSS has on many previous occasions, I think the missing riders contributed to that and R/R is always a nuisance. There is no if, BV is by far the best track i the country and very rarely is the inside line the quickest, usually there are multiple fast lines.2 points

you could also say, if Brennan had used his second bike from the start. All if's and but's. But that's speedway2 points

Boring meeting only kept interesting by the close score line . If that's the best track in the country.. Ipswich must be 2nd. Another track where going the shortest way round wins the race.2 points

Totally agree with you, got to put feelings aside & do what's best for Glasgow. Which in this case is giving an unbeaten rider an extra outing!2 points

But he 'bangs the drum' when there is cause to, and with British speedway it's so often because it is run so badly. Happy clap if you like but the fixture planning, the team line ups and as a result the crowd tonight were embarrassing. I'm surprised so many people paid £20+ to go and watch it.2 points

Can I hear that big negative drum being banged yet again? You must have very tired arms.2 points

I live 7miles from the centre of Leicester and seven miles from the stadium. It didn,t stop raining until late afternoon and so the call was right in my opinion.2 points

To be fair Rob Grant said there would be changes for the Leicester match & he isn’t lying . The change is Kyle Howarth is not guesting at no 1 he is going to ride against Newcastle instead1 point

There is a sidecar driver called Chris (drove in the early 80's), and another driver called Joe from 2010 or so. They are both from Helston, so I would think they're related.1 point

Whiles it's obvious points are being haemorrhaged away at 6 & 7, I'd have thought getting a No1 would have been a priority. Paying for top quality guests can't be helping the finances and I'm sure the fans want to see their own no1 every week.1 point

A report from the meeting, then a piece of history afterwards Paul Cooper won the main race before 12,000 fans. Dutch rider was taken to hospital by helicopter, but is ok https://www.ndr.de/fernsehen/sendungen/nordmagazin/100-Bergringrennen-in-Teterow,nordmagazin96630.html1 point

Professional team speedway in Britain is finished, it’s the greatest sport on earth but the lack of will to treat its issues and it has many are just killing the sport1 point

Fair play to the director he/she/they, (delete as applicable), did their best where they could to zoom in where 20 or 30 or so were sat together, making it look "full".. Not something they could keep doing but you could tell it was a plan.. Unfortunately at one stage they focused on five or six Aces fans who were sat pretty much isolated, having their tea by the looks of it, looking miserable, with coats fully fastened as if they freezing to death, which made my lad laugh out loud and say to me.... "Speedway fans make even you look young and normal"... Cheeky beggar.. ... "Eeeeeee I'm fifty four you know.."..1 point

Not so sure Discovery will be happy with the lack of support on the terraces like at Ipswich. Ur trying to sell a product to a new audience to attend and any potential new audience will be thinking "well it can't be that appealing coz hardly anyone attends". If I was the head of sport at Discovery I'd be thinking this is very embarrassing for our name. Even if TV viewing figures are holding up is it mainly hardcore fans that are watching? Finally put it this way.......if you watched a sport on TV that you hadn't seen before would you be encouraged to go or even watch on TV again if there were hardly any spectators in attendance?1 point

That "shower of rubbish" as you phrase it, happens to be a lot of supporters speedway team,and yes,they are struggling at the moment,but in light of the risk they take by coming out to ride week in week out for our entertainment,can't you just,for once,cut some slack for this famous club.the riders confidence will be low at the moment and the likes of your comments don,t help.do you really want to lose another club like we can really afford to at the moment?1 point
