And most are there because it’s their team not because it’s speedway, it’s tribalism and it’s the very foundation of any team sport but the concept is lost on British speedway

My guess is (sorry to repeat previous) that the drainage itself isn't as much the problem. it's more about being able to empty the sub-track tanks if the vehicles required to be filled with and take away water, and those required to do track maintenance, would need to be driven onto and along a track which is still very soft from the huge amount of recent rain. We wouldn't want a speedway match to be run, with riders having to go either side of a marooned lorry partway along the back straight. The way the money was raised to finance the building of Beaumont Park may have been questionnable, but it was fully privately-funded and didn't have the benefit of any provision from public funds. While it's true that the land it occupies is owned by the local council, the stadium also had to be fitted into a tight space, with restricted vehicular access around the perimeter, especially to the north where the perimeter is an industrial estate. Almost every year, work has been carried out over the winter to try to improve the track and drainage. But sometimes you can't overcome the effects of Mother Nature, so this decision is completely reasonable and sensible.

Now taking place next Monday not Thursday

Actually, it's pedantic 😂

By about 40 years.

What an atmosphere

Maybe ask Leicester to start the game v Bournemouth a bit earlier? 😄

Could always leave the football early

He needs to up his game but listening to crowds reaction to woffinden Wrocław would be crazy to get rid of him

Noticeable that the average age in tge crowd is lower than the UK

Get back to the Championship League forum 🥈

It's only because we had a months worth of rain in 24 hours... there's never been a match cancelled at Leicester because of rubble poking through the track

At last! Some common sense prevails

Bewley and Kurtz are no brainers. They should both be an Ace for the next 10 years unless they want to move on.

Natalie Quirke was the best

Congratulations for the most stupid ill-informed childish post of the day

That's Holes bay. A back water of Poole harbour. Not the English Channel

13675 which is a full house for the 9th time this season(out of nine)

This live on X.

Artem Laguta is the best rider in the world. Zmarzlik should thank Putin for his world title.

Now that is PLAY OFF.crowd👌

Alan loyal to his speedway team! Shovvy should follow suit and stop moaning.

He said on twitter he isn't going to the football!

I think you have a good chance mate, you are better out of the starts and all it takes is for Fricke and Lawson to pop out in heat 1, get something out of heat 2 and you can get on a roll, your top 4 will all be better than at BV, for us we need to get out the starts better and hope our top 4 can take points off Leicester heat leaders as our reserves and Norick could struggle, we have to avoid last places, as you say difficult but certainly doable.

I wonder who for

Has Buster been contacted yet to see if the AFA is free!!

Tom Brennan joins Bydgoszcz for 2025.

Tonight`s link- meeting starts 6pm UK time http://kergel.ucoz.lv/index/live_stream_2/0-12

Yeh but when you ask for grapes you get a bunch

And another one that needs to change the record

I don't understand that personal comments toward Abi. Comment regarding her professional skills, fine, getting personal, you can do better than that. As others have mentioned, directors will be telling her what guff to come up with, directors came up with the stupid #'s, is she going to say 'no - I'll do it my way' absolutely not, she probably appreciates her job. It's easy to switch off for 2 seconds when she's talking if she's ruining the experience for you.

Yes we are trying to get more water shipped in 😛

Totally disagree Danny to be fair scores the points that you would expect. However it’s not all about that is it? The biggest issue is when the chips are down he either goes missing or makes a novice error with riding lines. The semi final at Leicester being a prime example, on a comfortable 5-1 & then falls. Also can’t team ride to save his life I’ve seen more team riding from Nicholls & Brennan in their witches appearances this season than King has managed in the last 5 years.

100%agree regarding the mechanical knowledge of how the bikes works is big part of being able to make the correct changes on set ups.Many of the young Brits do not have that IMO.

Quite. Yes, I served my apprenticeship at the factory at the bottom of Sterte Avenue. Our carpark was at the waters edge back then, with the slipway outside the gate by the sea cadets.

I agree. Unless the UK manages to attract a younger audience it will continue to contract.

Couldn’t agree more.

Could KL go for Vaclav Milik at reserve? He was mentioned by Rob Lyon on the recent podcast with him.

If Poole are off on Friday I guess that means they will need to replace Bomber in the restaging as his average goes up on Tuesday.

Hiding behind his captain most of the time

it's only because Leicester track has poor drainage how many meetings gave been called off there in recent years attempts to solve it have failed

Only way I see Brennan potentially at Ipswich is if it's a 40 point limit. 1. Doyle 9.36 2. Rew 5.67 / Ellis 5.47 3. Brennan 6.52 4. King 6.14 5. Sayfutdinov 9.12 6. D. Thompson 3.11 7. (RS) = 39.92 or 39.72

Thanx Ian

Not ever but you can’t compare Sheffield to Ipswich …. Ok let’s say Doyle and Tai are comparable … you lost Jack for 2 meetings middle of the season when secure in top 4…. We lost Emil for the business end We had Ellis King and Dan Thompson all out injured and all riding with their injuries We when lost Jenkins when he was in form and again at the business end when it’s important Even Rew had one nasty smash at end of the season So no Sheffield has nowhere near the same issues as Ipswich ….. most true fans know Ipswich were unlucky this year but that’s speedway and I’m sure with a full 1-7 we would have seen off Leicester and Sheffield although we would have struggled against Belle Vue as they always thrash us up there!!

They will have the track prepared no doubt, but we are sweating on the weather late afternoon/evening. All they can do is prepare it and pack it down tight. Sadly they are on a win win situation, if it gets called off, they sadly will get the second leg, unless Matt and Dan say no . So make of that what you will ! What you laughing for Tyretrax

You know mate sometimes even through disappointment you just have to give the opposition credit and hope your own side turn it around. I think Leicester have every chance, Fricke will treble his score from Monday at least, Masters, Becker, and Douglas will be better, Leicester are better out the starts whats the betting Fricke and Lawson jump out in heat 1 and give you a good start? A follow up in heat 2 and its game on. I think the travesty this season is how Ipswich were robbed of half their team. If you didnt enjoy those mentioned races last night maybe speedways not for you? Ive no doubt if your lads had carried out those passes you would have viewed it as a good meeting? Anyway all to play for, im not counting any chickens and if Leicester turn it round i will be gutted but will be on here offering my congratulations.

Interesting late addition to SGP2 in torun this weekend, Slater Lightcap who made a good impression at the BEN fund meeting. Will be interesting to see how he goes, maybe a rider for 2025 ?

I think all the teams in the league have been grateful for emil riding in the uk the last two years, put numbers on every gate! class act on and off the track

Natalie Quirk. She’s a Belle Vue fan.
