Track had too much water on at the beginning which created alot dirt which had to be bladed off,which was fine, it was dusty but difficult to manage in the hot weather problem with tapes which could of been sorted quicker instead of trying to repair should of went straight to green light starts hindsight a wonderful thing. Josh Pickering showed how track can be rode and actually made Plymouth riders ride different lines racing was good usual Plymouth critics jumping on the bandwagon but if no one likes us who cares,we don't. Decent crowd in aswell.5 points

All the moaning,we all have seen “crap” speedway meetings,poor track prep and electrical problems maybe uncommon but I would bet we have all suffered it at sometime.I certainly seen worse racing.Need to take a leaf out of the Josh Pickering book and just get on with it.5 points

Has Freddie fallen out with Buster too? Lol3 points

Of course it all sounds logical but that doesn't mean that you have to give up and accept it. It's a weak one sided argument from Butterfield who's obviously feeling the heat as friends and family plead for the planning process to be speeded up and the EEAS whine that they need the money. If AEPG can't navigate their way out of their local plan and NPPF responsibilities then they are going to have to find new land (on or off site) and dip their hands in their pockets to pay for it. Or as the BSPA say, it shouldn't even get that far? The Save Peterborough Speedway consortium may stand alone but it doesn't take much to hang this planning process up. AEPG know that and the last thing that they need is more delay and timetable slippage!2 points

Not all Edinburgh fans hate Kye, there is only a small minority that post on here Hats off to wee Sedgy tonight, great effort - and Picko will be back, very uncharacteristic meeting for him2 points
-
But on the flip side if wasn't a trappers paradise would sedgy have got 14? Always frustrating to see your no.1 score so poorly but never just as easy as saying if he'd scored 10 you'd have won 50-40. But if picko and Ben cook can't pass on a track you know it's bad2 points

It's quite wrong that the NDL tail is being allowed to wag the Championship dog. Things must change for next year. All Championship teams signed up for a theoretical maximum of 18 home meetings - 8 league; 4 BSN; 4 KO Cup and 2 Play offs - so 16 league meetings (2H and 2A) and two play offs would be the same commitment .2 points

The houses was sold when Dunblane and the Orion’s was build .The speedway track was there then and when the shows was on traffic used to go in that entrance. The residents had no problem then.2 points

No doubt we'll have everybody from Poole telling us it's not normally like that, like they did with the Redcar match and like they do every time their track is exposed on TV2 points

When you have racers like Josh Pickering and Ben Cook struggling to nail a pass tells you how poor the track is.2 points

The speedway club didn't need all 164 acres to continue. No reason (apart from greed) the owners couldn't have built houses, while keeping the speedway.2 points

Buster at fault, obviously. Sure someone from Nene valley will be on here shortly to give us the reasons why2 points

Line up announced just now looks like a good field. Justin Sedgmen (Edinburgh/Birmingham) Dan Bewley (Belle Vue) Craig Cook (Workington/Leicester) Kyle Howarth (Scunthorpe/Sheffield) Antti Vuolas (Workington) Norick Blodorn (Belle Vue) Charles Wright (Redcar / Oxford) Paul Starke (Glasgow) Gino Manzares (USA) Simon Lambert (Scunthorpe) Alex Martin (USA) Adam Ellis (Ipswich) Ben Barker (Plymouth) Danny King (Redcar / Ipswich) Lewis Kerr (Berwick) Jan Kvech (King’s Lynn) Excited to see how Jan Kvech goes around the northside arena. Should be a good competitive meeting.2 points

Overcast in Poole today and forecast to be the same throughout the day. Might even be a slight risk of some natural watering to assist the track prep. Edinburgh boys will be well fed and watered at Middlo's overnight so looking forward to a decent meeting.2 points

That's quite realistic, if Flint has scored 0 from 3 then Ermolenko would give him his 4th ride lol!2 points

It would be impossible to be worse than tonight. The amount of time it took to sort out the green light starts was incredible, so much dust and we should all be grateful for Pickering, he was terrific, I hope he has a good night tomorrow as well otherwise it will be another hammering for Edinburgh.2 points

I do not think the Poole owners realise just how lucky they are with the turn out they get to watch this every other week. The racing truly is absolutely terrible, more accurately it is completely nonexistent.1 point

Edinburgh manager and captain making their thoughts known about last night's debacle on BSN tonight.1 point
-
To say what he did that night was just completely tone deaf from somebody who is supposedly a speedway supporter. Especially as it was on the eve of the Public planning inquiry for Coventry which showed everybody what can be done if there is a coordinated fight, whether that concludes successfully or not remains to be seen, but to just roll over without a fight after 50 odd years is totally unforgivable. If he didn't want to put up a fight, fair enough, but to dissuade others certainly rubbed a lot of people up the wrong way.1 point

You've missed the point. Apart from Speedway, who else is in the fight against AEPG?? You can have a 100 million protest signatures from Speedway fans but it has zero effect with councils eventually. Speedway alone will not keep the sport at Peterborough alive. The other businesses have to be involved and the immediate local communities affected by the new build. AEPG legally cannot be forced to find new land and/or be ordered to dip their hands in their pockets and help pay for it. Everyone can be as angry as they like of course, but there's absolutely no way of winning this one.1 point

Could be even tighter than your prediction if a TS is used in Heat 12, although that would give Lindgren 3 on the trot... Just to clarify I am referring to a tactical substitute and not a reserve replacement - I know Eurosport/Discovery plus don't know the difference!1 point

The consortium fighting to save Peterborough Panthers Speedway Club has challenged development agents AEPG to prove their claims made in a Peterborough Bondholder's network meeting that their plans to redevelop the site is supported by 50,000 / 100,000 people. In the same meeting, he branded speedway fans fighting for their club a “selfish, small cohort.” The 2022 title-winning speedway club and their race track have been removed from the East of England showground- their home since 1970- to make way for a multi-million pound 1,500 homes and leisure-village complex; consisting of two separate planning application of 650 and 850 homes. Over 2000 objections to the plans to create a new leisure village on the East of England Showground have been submitted.1 point

Currently, King's Lynn Speedway's curtains do close in September but the fans are sleeping on it. As for a buyer, I'm not convinced as they'd still have to work with Buster. Last season only lasted half a season with a new promoter remember.1 point

It needs to happen to make KL fans see the light, The saying take one step back to take two steps forward springs to mind. KL were a top club with a brilliant race track back in the day and you guys need to return to the good old days instead of watching dross every year but in order for that to happen Buster simply has to go. He's not fully committed these days and he's not running the club in a professional manner and it's the fans who suffer, Riders walking out on him may be the final straw to the point where Buster actually walks for a change. Someone will step up and buy / save the club, We've always seen saviours spring up whether it's a consortium or someone who's already in the Speedway family.1 point

Thanks, its all the supporters who are the losers. I'd like to see a return to the second division where Polish clubs can't mess us about personally. I'd have thought Lewi Kerr would be ahead of Z Cook in any list of potential signings but who knows.1 point

Women are competitive in lower levels of (mixed) car racing, although there just less of them competing. There are just very few/none at the top levels for whatever reason.1 point

You are really quite vile aren’t you Rew is not a dirty rider not by any stretch of the imagination Clearly he was at fault but not everytime another rider takes someone else off is it dangerous riding …. A rider can simply make a misjudgement it happens ….. I remember in a GP Mark Loram coming under Rickardsson and taking his front wheel away … was Mark dirty? No he just got it wrong Keynan will be devastated about what’s happened … it didn’t need forum idiots like you running their mouth off. Belle Vue fans on here and on social media are attaching no blame to Rew and rightly so as they are speedway fans We should all be wishing Tate the best and every Ipswich fan will do ….. so wind your neck in on here1 point
