  1. Spread a few rumours,,, at least then they can say they tried to get some good signings,,,, come on Arch play the game.

  2. The best signing that anyone could make in the NL! Between him & Boughen this year, they both showed that they’ll make a mockery of their average but Harrison starts on 2 points less. If the rest of the team is as rumoured it should be a good first year back.

  4. Agree a little bit. But just glad to have speedway back in Workington, but surely the point of the 3rd league is to bring young kids like Luke etc through the ranks,and onto hopefully bigger and better things ?? Personally I would like a team of up and coming riders gaining experience, rather than building a win at all cost team, but I know to attract a crowd you have to have a good mixture of both . Anyway good luck to all involved, looking forward to next announcement, up the comets UTC

  7. Kyle Howarth does and backs up my opinion that speedway is about winning trophies and not just about riders just doing a job to feed their family and earning money he said I want to win stuff I want trophies On my cv so all you people who have said trophies etc mean nothing and I got shot down by some on here for suggesting that was the case I rest my case.

  9. Has always been that reductions only count in the team building calculation but don't affect thd riding order - Brennan should therefore start in the 1-5

  13. Noise carries across lands/fields and may annoy, say farmers with animals. On the IOW I am informed that they are restricted to an 9.30pm end for racing for noise reasons, but there is a lady councellor who lives miles down the valley from the track who carefully monitors the noise after 9.30pm. A lot of promotions are monitored especially if there are people/organisations who can take advantage of the noise problems.

  15. Done my bit, though we didn't get off to a good start! The presenter of the programme, Steve Scruton, rang me on Wednesday to ask me if I could take part in the programme. He said the only track he knew about was Rayleigh and asked me if I ever went there. I told him that I only went there once or twice. So, he started off the interview with me this morning by saying he understood I was a regular at Rayleigh and must have lots of memories of the place that I could talk about. Doh!!!

  20. That’s daft it’s been proven it was not a recreational drug he was daft for exceeding dosages of painkillers and the Plymouth promotion took him to a clinic for a drug test to prove it was just that and nothing more so I think your comment is frankly out of order like someone else has said if your in that much pain who knows what we all would do in the same circumstances.

  21. Scream I think you are being a little silly. Barker has been a good rider for Plymouth i personally think he was silly with what he took but who is to say what I would do if in pain. I do not think it is even benefit of the doubt.

  22. Zagar has not got a Polish ride(yet) but has signed a " Warsaw contract" with Torun- which means if anyone comes in for him he can sign for them.

  24. Tate Zischke finished 3rd in 1st round of Aussie Championship today behind Fricke & Sedgmen https://speedwaynews.pl/zuzel/fricke-broni-mistrzostwo-kapitalna-forma-zuzlowca/ Far better use of 4 points that Lee Complin; if he's willing to come to the UK

  29. What does "out and out" actually mean? Sounds like a bulls**t expression, used by people but with no clear meaning. A rider's either a number one or not. Defined by his CMA

  33. Not really, as has been said before they aren't coming to Poole anyway. But would be good to see him ride in the UK, Champ or Prem.

  35. The tracks I have on my list to talk about are High Beech, Dagenham, West Ham, Rayleigh, Walthamstow, Lea Bridge and Arena Essex/Lakeside. Romford is a bit of a funny one because it was in Essex until 1965 but, there was no speedway there until 1969, by which time it was in London! Although there was a team called Romford before the War which operated from the Dagenham track. The researcher I spoke to, thought I also ought to mention Rye House as it is very close to Essex and a lot of Essexians (or whatever we are called) would have gone there.

  44. No way is Brennan ahead of Lidsey. In my view no comparison- don`t forget Lidsey holds his own in the top leagues in Poland and Sweden.

  45. Due to work commitments I cannot make every meeting. This season when my son went it was £22 for us both. Next season due to him having just turned 16 it will now be £40. Will make it difficult for families to attend with no student or concession prices.

  46. Part of the problem is that if you are working on a Saturday and finish late you haven't time to faff around organising on line tickets before setting off to travel.Also might have other commitments leading to last minute decision to go and in both cases you are penalised through no fault of your own. Maybe not a problem for the likes of Mr Barrie whose whole existence revolves around speedway but the powers that be should maybe accept not everyone is like that.

  47. Interesting business decision. Sign Rory Schlein and slap on a 50% increase on admission charges for the majority of your spectators. Likely to lose some attendees completely, some will only turn up occasionally, and some may continue to attend. Net increase in gate receipts is doubtful…… A modest increase may have been more effective ?

  48. My team Plymouth are doing no concessions this year either due to people abusing it last year but are keeping admission prices the same as last year as the promoter said he understands the climate we are in and all facing.

  49. I'm not a Berwick fan but the difference between Bomber and Rooboy is pretty simple and it's not averages (of the oh so many the sport gives us) Rooboy has had a season out so will probably take time to get into the swing of things. Having read on this thread that he's not got a great record at Berwick. Known to whinge if it's too wet or grippy and it hardly ever rains in Berwick. Whereas Bomber would race on a ploughed field in a monsoon and still come into the pits with a big grin
