They won't have raced the 2nd leg at Glasgow by this SAT.

Its hard to figure for a summer sport the number of tracks the had blank weeks in June and July.Only speedway I'm afraid.

well done Ipswich, little bit of self destruct creating a slick track not a lot of passing after back strait,and Rory loved it.A little bit of dirt might have made a big difference ,on saying that Davey could have raced all night and not scored a point never even at the races,poor.Eric Riss will be a top man I a couple of years IMO superb racer and in control.Very average crowd for such a big match IMO .

With Riss back think Monarchs have good chance,if Clegg shows his Armadale "reserve" form.Should be a decent match.

Save a lot of trouble ,just toss a double headed coin .

Correct,but the real problem with Promoters is self interest !! Now that it is starting to hurt CVS he wants change!!!!!

I think the stupid fixture list caused a lot more trouble than most Promoters thought it would,you need you your speedway every week during the season.It just got worst over the last few seasons.

I Personaly think that the majority of riders at Championship level these days take on too many meetings guesting and riding abroad in lower leagues,they don't have the set up and machinery to cope and subsequently their form starts to suffer and they get burn out.Its a viscous circle IMO .

Finely balanced I would say,considering you can't use Tacticals.

Sheffield are a formidable home Team this season,can't see anyone beating them over aggregate home and away.There will be afew Tigers riders wondering where they will be next season,it's been proven before when you pay good money up front that some riders be come complacent .Think even Tigers fans will admit that all is not well in the camp these days though.Injuries apart.

You had that muppet last week saying he was saving himself for Belle Vue.

Your right,but a least your not wasting a No5 ride in heat 13 and you already have your no1 in it who may salvage something.Just my opinion though.

I really think that it has got to a situation if things don't change radically regarding fixture planning and doubling up,die hard fans who are really cheesed off this season will finally say enough is enough and not bother turning up next season for the sake of it.Some of the smaller clubs really put a lot of effort in but are p#ssing against the wind IMO .

That would be a nice surprise.

With 3 strong Ht Leaders think you can get away with it.

You are leaving out the underhand dealing and promises that are made before the Conference .!

The BSPA is only concerned with Top League,to them the rest can sort themselves out,happens every time they are in Sh#t and it's annoying that the test fall for it every time.Nothing changes self interest rules!!!!!!

Big fuss about a rider struggling to get out of reserve spot.Needs to get on with it and stop moaning.

Plenty street parking although be careful not to block driveways ,also big Speedway car park 200yd along road (£2)

Speedway couldn't organise a p#ss up in a brewery.Surely it would been more sensible on a Sunday as an alternate.Thats what the fixtures farce has forced upon them.

Prediction time! I think Monarchs might sneak this one.Should be 2 cracking meetings though.(if no riders missing,which would make the whole thing a joke ).

Agree

Good to hear Speedway at Berwick next season.(whatever league ).just need the BSPA to sort things out ( won't hold my breath though).Really can't see anything other than a Sat race night would suit Bandits.

Wasnt surprised that Sheffield didn't choose Monarchs,They could thump anybody at the Dump,Grazonik is not great there.was it not a guest when Sheffield won this season? (Worrell)

100% agree most other forms of Car/ Bike sport use these type of rules to cut cost and try to create a level playing field.It would be easy to implement. Only last week in the SS we had Cook saying how much it was going to cost to lighten his machinery to GP standard,crazy IMO .
