If they are happy with that level of crowd then NSS should be on the cards next year.

Could you explain the 2 ambulances at Berwick,not sure I get what you mean there have been delays at Berwick while attending to riders which is understandable but why do we wait for County Ambulance for transfer sometimes.Delays at Berwick seem no different to other tracks I have attended when there is a bad crash.

Think it is time to modify the machinery.Most other bike sports and Motor Sports have done it succcessfully.I am not a Hancock fan but there is some truth in what he says.

Hancock said it all in SS British track are not up to modern day machinery,but it will fall on deaf ears as usual,fans having being saying the same thing for th last few years.

Does Cook get to pick and choose what meetings he wants to ride in these days?

What exactly is his problem,he said old back injury but has returned since and has started pulling out meetings,is he injured or what.

That Ashfield pub would scare most people never mind when Rangers and Celtic playing.

The locals would have showed you the way to the motorway after they beat you up,if it's any consolation.Decent lads up there.!!!!

Think he had a wine shop in Edinburgh.Total plonker.

3 new "fantastic" articles in the Dirt though.

Pawlick £25 more

Like KK tonight!!!

Lost the plot?

The other riders rode!!!! Holder didn't!!

You will get told at the rider introductions .

Depends who Sedgy is riding for on the night!!! he is in a no win situation on this one.

Fair enough,but what has brought this to a head is Poland saying to Jack Holder mid- season, we want you for rest of season that has to be put a stop to somehow.Its obvious that the money is better,but a little loyalty has to be shown.Not just a bung to his GB Promoter to make it alright.

I don't want to see foreign riders banned if they commit to GB for season ,you have fair point but 6/8 years is a bit long,perhaps they should have clause that they have to buy out there GB contract if they want to concentrate on abroad.After all the British Clubs are training them and paying them to learn their trade.

I Actualy think this doubling up/ down in GB is causing a lot more trouble than the foreign missing riders.Only my opinion though.Ps Restricting race nights in GB is a major problem that would be difficult to solve IMO

Bottom line for me is I only want to see riders committed to the sport UK ,I know that's not everybodies" cup of tea" but that's my opinion on how to revive the sport if that's possible in Uk.

A bit of exaggeration about number times per week,while clubs have different race nights riders on average only race on 2 nights in any given week perhaps 3 if the team is on " Tour" which is infrequent these days.You know fine that 1 race night in Gb will never happen given the situation regarding Stadiums,the riders who want to ride also know that fact, so the ball is in their court.Speedway is a shambles in GB.Dont think it will be solved by the present people running the sport.That has been said for years now though.! Not sure what you mean by no2

Nobody is saying ban anybody, providing they commit to racing UK as their first priority. A lot of GB and foreign riders riding in Poland will tell about the burst bubble when it came to getting paid

Agree.

I think it's pretty obvious that GB has to go back to basics, but year after year we seem not to recognise the we are not the force in World Speedway any more.A few of the top riders are just using us to top up their earnings and don't give there all it saving for abroad where their earnings are much bigger.

Exactly!
