  1. I would like to thank the Edinburgh fans who applauded us ( the Plymouth fans ) as we left the stadium , it was a great gesture and really made our day.

  4. Not sure what their problem with Chris Holder is?! Good to see him riding in UK again even if only for a couple of meetings. Hopefully he'll be riding more regularly over here next season.

  5. Interesting meeting. With the top 2 not quite scoring at their usual rate (hats off to Richard Lawson for a decent effort though), Monarchs were never comfortable and it took yet another heat 15 5-1 to seal the 3 points. There were some vital contributions from the supporting cast, including heat wins for both Police Sarjeant and Dr Hook. We were even treated to a victory lap from young Lasse after finishing third in heat 10. Never seen that before. The glue that is Kye Thomson turned in probably his most dominant display to date, showing a new found aggressive side and some excellent passing. Perhaps he should lose a chain in his first race every week! For the Gladiators, after two races, it looked like they might need to call upon old friends Hunter and Jet. However, they already had the Wolf man at number one and his part in the heat 3 5-1, alongside the brutally inconsistent MPT, turned the meeting on its head. Of the rest, Ben Barker/r posted his best sunny Armadale score since, er, no idea. HNA really is a classy performer but he doesn't half give up easily. And Ben Morley did what Ben Morley does. Paid 9 was good reward for his evening's work. Unlike last week, there was no controversy. Not that there was ever any chance of that with the best referee in the sport in charge. Thank you again for 2014 sir Roll on a week on Friday...

  6. The development of Brennan has been excellent. I saw him race his first race in Eastbourne kevlars and he failed to make it into bend 2 !!!!! He has come on leaps and bounds and I am sure with the right development can move forward. On Monday he was excellent and shows how far he has progressed. He was fast , aggressive and determined. My kids will be proud to wear his colours on Sun !!!

  7. I do not think torpointfanatic22 is a Plymouth fan . All his posts knock Plymouth, apparently doesn’t even live in the south west or attend the racetrack . Just another know all keyboard warrior or princess .

  8. Still waiting for your answer on the better guests you'd have chosen..... As the doubter has been completely unable to name any better guests, I'd say he's been proven totally wrong. Wouldn't you?

  9. Racing was as Kelvin would say out of the top drawer, Birmingham put up a good fight, great to see Connor getting in the points and Ben Basso, what a racer, he has sussed the ashfield track well and defo worth the admission money and more, sincerely hope we can keep him next year, the guy is phenomenal and so exciting to watch.

  11. He was 4th in his qualifier missed out on qualification on count back in a meeting where he finished above dudek and our wild card for Cardiff scored 3. Deserves his place far as I'm concerned

  12. The sort of place for me that could have held regular (monthly?) decent level racing on Saturday or Sunday afternoons... Individuals, made up teams (who just said like is usual?), Buxton v Cradley etc.. And should have been used by the BSP to provide plenty of laps to juniors during the week...

  13. We needed to keep the heat in the season so bringing Tungate in should be the perfect move

  14. So this will be the first look at the new Witches septet, it's Doyle, Starke, Tungate, King, Batchelor, Summers & Hume?

  15. Poor professionalism?? If I got sacked from work but they asked me could I help them out and work a day I would tell them bollocks. He’s one of the most professional riders out there. If you had won on Thursday it wouldn’t of even bothered you about lewi not being there.

  20. More likely they have now ridden to the 75% point by where they have to make changes and they don't know how long the wait will be. There is also the angle where a rider in an originally declared 1-7 can come back in. Who knows, if he's guilty of something illegal he deserves 2 years ban, if he's swalloed too many painkillers in an attempt to ride, then he doesn't deserve to be pilloried especially when in some sports they are happy to take tens of thousands a week to sit on their backsides for 3-4 years. Hopefully the powers that be will pull their fingers out and do something as its not fair on the rider nor his 2 clubs

  21. Bickley came along way in a short time, sadly for him he has went virtually nowhere over the last two or three season, he has been a Championship reserve and no more. IMO he needs a re-think over the winter as there is something wrong somewhere.

  22. The Torun v Wroclaw match is massive in the context of who meets who in the play-off 1st round. Wroclaw need to win to avoid meeting the in form Czestochowa. If they do it will be Torun who race Czestochowa. We know it`s Lublin v Leszno and it`s injury hit Gorzow v Torun/Wroclaw.

  23. Despite my own frustrations and falling out of love with the sports direction one thing I would never feel the need to question is the way the club individually has embraced and improved its media output and the effort that Chris and the team put in to make the Foxhall experience the best it can be for the fans

  24. Tungate and Summers confirmed, pending BSPA approval. Replacements for Riss and Barker.

  25. Ryan Douglas, by far. The best visiting rider this season. Bringing Bickley in, bad choice. Brings nothing to the team

  32. Can't beat a bad tempered meeting for me ignites the crowd like back in the day at the old yam yam derbies at Monmore or Dudley Wood even Birmingham v Eastbourne budgies used to have a bit of needle. Thaught Holta was pretty ruthless on Douglas tho

  34. Maybe one day the bspa or l or whatever they call themselves these days will wonder where all the riders have gone and wonder if they had any part in it, if they solve that they can then start on finding the missing fans and wonder if they had any part in their disappearance

  35. Indeed he did, when I'm wrong I say I'm wrong. Fair play to Leon, I think he's a good rider with a very good future in the sport, however I didn't fancy him last night based on his previous, delighted for him and for the team. Never expected us to get a point.

  38. A really decent meeting you would never work out from the scoreline. Basso was just superb but where was tonights Sedgmen last season. Fast, aggressive, making passes and riding intelligently to run wide in 15 to block Basso. We waited patiently all season for that to show up and got let down.

  42. Onesport are a bunch of shysters !!! they have decided to make the rest of the SEC series PPV to customers not in a TV contract area. they want 9 Euros for Saturday or 24 Euros for the remaining 3 rounds- well as far as I am concerned they can get stuffed- They promised we would be able to watch the series when they did the deal with TVP Sport Poland. I will be watching on a stream - they are not going to get a penny from me !!! Edit from February From Onesport TVP Sport acquired the rights to show SEC in Poland. - We are already working on broadcasting options in other countries. I'm sure that all speedway fans outside Poland will be able to follow the European Championships without any problems - adds Lejman. http://speedwayeuro.com/en/ppv
