And eres me thinking that 'Ashton Gate' was a football ground !

It does sound rather implausible. Think a bit of retrospective covering up may be going on to try and mitigate against the likelyhood of disciplinary action.

BassoRacingFan will know the answer

I heard that his ankle actually "fell off" and that the Polish doctors (who seem much, much, much better than ours), were able to sew it on again for him... With no lasting issues.. "As goodski as newski Brady", was what he was told.. As Turkey seems to be the place to get your teeth "done" nowadays, Poland is obviously the place to get injuries fixed in record time which defy all previous medical history and knowledge..

Let's hope Brady's ankle injury wasn't aggravated again whilst scoring a 15 point maximum yesterday.

Never thought to get checked out by the doctors on site? Lets drive 7 hours home instead! Surely a 28 day ban is coming

He basically confirmed what Leicester said on their website. His Dad was taken ill and they had to return home. He was meant to be riding at Iwade today but pulled out from that too. He apologised to Leicester as a whole and everyone at Iwade today.

I don’t think Woffy is finished yet, but he has certainly gone backwards a little these last 2 years.Doyle looked done last year, but has fought back strong this year. No reasons Woffinden can’t do the same. As for Janowski, I have never rated him as a potential world champion. Too inconsistent, particularly in Gp’s away from Poland.

That's next Sunday! This time last season Kent had ridden one home league match and two away, there were two home league matches in July, August and September. So far this season they've ridden one at home and three away. They have one home meeting next week, two in July, two in August and one in September. There are only 8 teams in the NDL so meeting are spread out throughout the season. There was an amateur meeting today, and last week would have been the second NORA meeting but that was cancelled.

No comment. End of statement. Blobby.

Don't be daft, clubs will vote on what suits them best, nothing else will matter! Look at how long the "rising star" system lasted in the Champ for example!

Just have a concrete surface to start from, No getting off bikes and messing about, Up to the tapes, Green light on and go. Simple.

No it isn't. Anyone who thinks that this will solve everything is deceiving themselves.

Every team should be allowed one senior rider such as Lee to help pass on advice to the younger riders , but the league should be about development

It's like a weird comedy show. It's a shame it wasn't the Panthers meeting on TV,,, and tonight Riss guest for the Panthers who normally races for Ipswich,,who are also racing tonight,,,any what's going on at Ipswich,, tonight Barker races his last meeting as injury cover for Riss,,, who is no longer injured and is guesting for the Panthers, hey??? Only in speedway

Until we know (if we ever do) the actual circumstances, we can't really make assumptions. For a start, did his dad do the driving home. or was there someone else to drive? As far as "mitigating circumstances," I'm not so sure about that. Seek medical advice (plenty of that around) and seek another mechanic. If medical advice is "go home" then maybe, but the rider should still be disciplined for not riding in the meeting (I would expect a 28 day ban). But, as I say, let's hear the truth of what actually happened.

A repeat would be nice

We are very grateful to Nigel Tolley and before him the Masons for keeping Brummies alive against mounting odds and big losses. Your one man moaning vendetta though against Mark Phillips is OTT I've not seen Nigel driving a tractor or preparing the track. Nor Dave and Peter Mason Not seen them rebuilding completely new Stands, put in new lighting, drag a struggling NDL team up to the CL and recruit the likes of Crump, Anderson, Palm Toft and others to try to make it work Perry Barr is in the middle of everywhere, Plymouth is on a never ending road to almost no where. Mark Phillips deserves great credit, not your constant moaning.

I take my hat off to mr Tolley at least he realises a shake up needs to be made not like my team birminghams results are no worse than ours but I bet they make more changes before we do, lack of riders is always the reason cited, other teams manage to put teams good teams together for me Kyle howarth got it spot on the fixture list is a joke not enough meetings between now and the middle of August my team Plymouth have 4 meetings at home left season over absolute joke.

Exactly all those missed Saturdays terrible planning.

All these Weeks without a Bandits fixture and we still can’t put out a full team.Bad Planning somewhere. IMO

Neither did Doyle or Vaculik and they are currently in the top 6…… Tai is in the worlds top 10 simply should be in the GP series

Crap GP, crap final. Please don’t return to this awful track. Even the fans know it’s dire as there were probably 3000 there at most.

How about a scenario where a potential buyer for the club, and current owner couldn’t come to an agreement over the sale . The potential buyer had already got his team sorted, but when the deal fell through the current owner couldn’t or wouldn’t honour the contracts that had been agreed, and the sponsors didn’t get the team they thought were buying in to . Just a thought

Are you expecting Poole to change their team by then? Or maybe Cookie will not have a sore back by then. I have had a sore back for the best part of twenty years he really should man up.

That's because it's Poole they get away with anything

Forced to, or accepted a booking to?

Ok I’ll put it another way, the natives are getting restless I’m hearing more and more negative comments every week. And there are a lot more empty spaces in the stadium of course I want the club to succeed there my club . But this year more than any other is the first time I have been worried about its future maybe the financial climate we are in people part with there hard earned money want to be entertained and feel the only entertainment is being provided by the opposition. We have one of the strongest heat leader trios on paper and we go to Poole and concede nine (nine) 5-1s.now I no Poole are good but not that good.sorry for hijacking the Birmingham thread.

Presume it must be to deliver the Polish quota per team?.. The barrel is being certainly scraped if so..

Grrrrrr.... Getting passed up the inside.... At least make the better riders work to pass you... And why have Leszno signed Miedzinski...? Is there really no one better..?

Ostrow v Zielona Gora, 11.06: https://vk.com/video-53550004_456241330

Don’t you know -Kolodziej and Zengi are injured !! Brown rides in the U 24 Extraleague and is based in Poland like others including Cluff and Bowes.

I seem to remember Klindt riding there last year and doing well, may have been guesting for someone.

What do you think Ian?

Completely agree re the fixture list, it's a farce. Simply not enough meetings, I don't see how any team can make any real money from such few home fixtures and they wonder why clubs are going to the wall.

We were way to hasty in ditching Newman in 2019 that's for sure. I think Keleher would have done a job for us too last year and this.

Ah yes thanks for clearing that up

Maybe like Mark Phillips he should give Matt Ford a call to ask him to help with any of the riders on Poole's asset list??! or any of Matt's many other speedway contacts. They all need a little help from their friends - occasionally!

Thank you very much. That’s great.

You can't beat a good mive.....

That's the key thing to me. If you have a track that can actually be raced, the difference in the gates becomes much less important. Obviously it would be nice if gates were equal, but if they have to focus on something, I'd prefer that to be preparing a track that enables passing rather than making sure gates are all equal.

I think because gate 3 is normally on the racing line and the riders entering the 1st bend every lap means the is no loose dirt up to the 1st corner therefore no real drive after the first 20-30 metres unless you can get across riders in gates 1-2 into the 1st bend.On saying that though you have 3.3/4laps to pass them.!!!

No, it won’t with this particular team but as they say, if you pay peanuts you get monkeys if you pay nothing, you get Laurence rogers Replacing rogers would give more leadership snd reduce the points thrown away by inept team management thus lessening our current thrashing’s to hopefully something approaching respectability last weeks debacle in heat five last Wednesday snd his ridiculous attempts to justify his actions, were the last straw for me. He’s absolutely clueless

Why ? Edinburgh are mince

Not disespecting Lee or others similar but surely the NDL not place for them

No, it never has been. It's commercial success they seek.

Its just dawned on me that most these riders don't give a crap about who they ride for and only who bids the most for them..so that's Tungate off to Lynn then....

I have to agree with all of that, as R/R for Kurtz only reaped 6-points. Toft certainly was competitive last night, and we need that to continue. Laguta is off this planet, and by far the best rider in the Premiership, what a joy to watch. It's time now that both him and Sayfutdinov were given wild cards in next season GP Series. I certainly wouldn't off load Edwards, as like Jenkins at Peterborough, he's showing so much promise. I like and feel sorry for Jorgensen, because he is a very good rider, but I think he's now found himself in the same position that Kerr and Riss were in, he needs a change of scenery to revitalise himself. Klindt is close to a carbon copy of Kasprazak, sometimes he will, sometimes he won't. Unlike most people, I've never been sure about Pickering. But as the saying goes these days, "It Is What It Is", and where really are the answers. Ipswich and Peterborough are both voicing complaints, and we can't all get the answers we want. I feel sorry for Alex, he's putting his heart, soul and money into this club, and deserves to succeed.
