There a few riders that would like to be as bang- average as Madsen.He explained tonight that his bikes are aggressive and too strong for the slicker tracks.He was also saying that he hasn’t been well over the last few days.Im sure he will sort out his set -up come GP series.Interestingly riders are saying that the Polish tracks seem to be much slicker this season compared to normal. ps Is your Nan being called up to replace Batchelor at Rybnik

More than likely.

Thanks for link

Hard to figure what the situation with Batchelor is.!!!

Doyle seems has no speed this season.

Agree.

Glasgow are very Pro -Active in trying to attract new and young people to the sport and it is working to degree,but they’re outlay in wages and overheads still means they are losing money.Its obvious something in sport has to change.

Sadly that sums it up for a lot fans, diehards will always turn up but attracting new fans is a struggle.

I think most Promotions don’t get crowd levels to cover riders demands for the season and rely on Sponsorship and fans initiatives to raise funds to keep afloat.Have a feeling things will have too change a bit in future.

Mmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmmm

If it goes ahead I wonder if it will be with capacity crowd( might be a stumbling block),as the Grandstand was virtually sold out long before Covid 19 became a problem.Interesting!!!

Well done Robert Lambert ,has certainly moved up a level this season and is maintaining his form.

Kurtz got dropped for Lidsey,he has been loaned out to 1st Division Team.They don’t mess about in Poland they pay good money but you have to be on your game every race.Bewlay was out of his depth IMO.

While IMO is was just a pretty average meetings, it was certainly no worse than many I have watch during a GB season.I enjoy the speed and the closeness of the action on well prepared tracks in the main.Although they seem to be a little slicker this season.

Read what I said.

I think the the situation was when the leagues amalgamated in 1965, the riders like Redmond and Brown and a few others who had been top men In the Provincial League were “ getting on a bit”.The up and coming men were the “younger ones”likes of Hunter,Monk,Boocock,Pratt,Brett ,Wilson and Mauger to name a few who went on to better things.

He was my first hero in speedway, he was certainly the fans favourite in his rise to the top with the Monarchs.He certainly stalled after ‘65.and Persson and Eide became the top dogs.Had a good career.Definitely had the skills to reach the top but it just never happened.Drove his Uncles cattle lorry In between meetings while still persueing his Monarchs career.

I agree they certainly did not want to run League without Crowds.

Will soon be Top Aussie .IMO.

Dudek seems to have went backwards over the lasts 1 1/2 seasons.

No probs for me.

George definitely was a Top Man in 1965 ,and should have went further in the sport IMo.He walked out of a Wet meeting at Meadowbank in 65 and then seemed to take a dislike to wet meetings.Think the Craven situation was always at the back of his mind,and nerves seemed to affect him on the big occasion.He was a class act and a fantastic style and team rider.He had a good career in the sport if somewhat underachieving.A good guy.

Very much doubt a vaccine will be generally available in a few weeks.

Very Black cloud I’d say.
