So who won it last year then? Time for your tablets, Old Bob!!

How has Lawson not been disqualified?

Just to let everyone know, all that can be done is being done. We have had unprecedented amout of rain this month. Last Fri I pumped off any standing water, Saturday I let it dry , was best to stay off the track, you can do more harm than good if you try and work it while it's to wet. Sunday I worked the track for 6 hours, it was bladed several times, wheeled many times, spun in, then graded, finally packing it for an hour with the lorry, if I knew how to post a pic of how it looked on Sunday I would, it looked really good. Monday and today we have had nothing but rain! My pump has been working since a week last Sunday. Sam has been up today to get any surface water off, horrible job in the wet and cold. As soon as is possible the track will be worked on tomorrow and Thurs, we are trying, very hard !!

I was walking passed a 'down and out' sat outside Tesco yesterday and as I passed by he started siinging... "Dreamer, Your know you are a dreamer"... I said.. "That's Supertramp".. And he said... "Thanks very much, I appreciate your positive feedback".. Baddum Tish, I thang yow... I'm 'ere all week...

Ben Cook is back tonight to lift the trophy!😀

Congratulations Poole BSN SERIES 2024 Winners (can see into the future obviously) 😉

We've got the NDL tail wagging the Championship dog. NDL teams shouldn't expect to race on the parent clubs race night unless the parent club is racing away that night. Similarly to have 2H and 2A, the principle of race night seniority needs to be revisited and changed such the senior club gets priority on the first meeting but not on the second meeting. All clubs will need to accept that they will have to race on their alternative racenight during the season.

Then get rid of them, so the rest of us have a sport to watch. If we cave in to the lowest common denominator, we're all done anyway.

Lewi Kerr was already declared but now is not allowed to ride I think it's fair game to do whatever the f@#k you like at this time

Apart from last year then?

Young Dan Ford is as soppy as his Father juding by his post on the Poole Website:- Poole promoter Dan Ford said: “We know that nothing is actually won yet, but the boys were formidable at Scunthorpe on Sunday and have put us in a very strong position of being the only club to win this competition. Well you would be as its the first time the competiotion has been staged !!!!!

Meant the size of the font but thanks.

I know it seems harsh to say that but they’re the rules, he knows what he signed up for, it’s not just been dropped on him out of the blue

That was hardly a choke. More a case of dodgy goings-on. Weather was terrible and the second leg was called off by Cradley around lunchtime, and all riders were informed. Then Cradley decided they would run in the rain after all, and reversed the call-off decision later in the afternoon. In those pre-mobile phone days Belle Vue couldn't get hold of all the team to tell them it was back on, and ended up having to borrow a couple of local juniors to make up a team. Then of course Peter Collins and Chris Morton were knocked off and put out of the meeting injured (Collins with the broken shoulder which would effectively end his career). That left Belle Vue with just Louis Carr and Pekka Hautamaki from the original team, and of course they were well beaten.

Trackrat is a bit slow, you have to make allowances!

Go back a page or so I already put it on here

In 1977 Gothenburg had a jet engine on the back of a car drying the track at the World Final... East Mids airport isn't too far away is it?

31 i think including the CL pairs

To think, in my heyday of watching speedway.....all tracks had at least 25-30 home meetings.......

Don't think you're a lone voice..

I actually think she has improved a lot and is quite good now.

Oh yes I'm gonna av extra chocolate sprinkles on mine in the morning 👍🏆 😀

Time to celebrate with a flat white

POOLE PIRATES BSN SERIES CHAMPIONS 🏆 2024 Congratulations to all on board the Pirate Ship ☠️

In H1? Should have been Sam if anyone.

No chance in hell that Leon Flint will prove any competence at the top level of Speedway

Track is way to dry

Lawson should of gone there

Hans Andersen is Nicki Pedersen’s assistant Danish team manager.

Looking hopeful for tomorrow nights meeting.

Fire! - how the goings on in dark nights in the winter of 1968 changed Scottish Speedway Big Birthdays - who is celebrating this month? Anyone Remember Number 23 - our monthly test of your recall skills. classicspeedwaymemories.webador.co.uk/

I'd take him for Klindt, Cook or Basso

No I didnt know that Fromafar....... haven't seen Polish speedway for a while now.

Without the play offs, the season would just "fizzle out".. The "winners" of a league that has no real financial reward, nor any publicity outside its own bubble, will make their money (hopefully), by running a semi and a final that attracts maybe a couple of thousand more combined than they would have got for two "run of the mill" meetings at the end of the season... Sheffield won the league (or was it Leicester?), but I would say that more attended their play off than would have attended their league winning meeting (in fact I don't think they even had one as Leicester losing gave them top spot didn't it?) . The Aces were pretty much guaranteed a play off place and, around the SON time, their crowds dipped noticeably, (probably due to the cost of the SON tickets), therefore the play offs brought in much needed revenue... Not many speedway meetings (in the UK), look as if they "mean something" therefore the play offs at least give the sport some kind of purpose, and drama...

That was bigger than the 30-60,63-32 is 31pts,make sure your abbacus is working next time lol

Simple to fix, either just have a champion based on league position or if we must have the farce of the play off's simply call them the Play Off Champions and the real champions the League Champions.

That'll upset AceBelle!!!🤣

The first paragraph is exactly what happened this year anyway, the top four were basically confirmed after two months of the season. This year is a great example of how the league system would have worked with it going down to the last meeting of the season to determine the champions

In which case, he'd have got to Scunthorpe around 7pm - around the time the meeting was finished 🤔😄

Got knocked out by BV in the semi like should have happened?

Basketball takes the same sensible approach.

I think that's a bit below the belt, considering she is suffering with stage 4 terminal breast cancer. I'm sure you didn't mean it like that though.

If you are on Facebook, have a look at the Speedway Friends Group. Karl Fiala has posted hundreds of "Where are they now?" posts where ex riders answer the type of questions you are asking.

I couldn't agree more with this statement.

Trouble is when you need him to score heavily he lets you down, like at Belle Vue the other day.

Congratulations to Garry. Many thanks to R & R for organising.

Have we, England, moved geographically?

Men just don't like women being involved in "their sport". It's as simple as that. No matter which way you look at it, it's sexism. Of course, there are bad female pundits but there's so absolute 🤡 male pundits too that have even 'Played the Game'. It's across ever male dominated sport

Wish they would stop using them helmet cams all we see is a rear wheel.
