  1. We have been unfortunate with injury to our main riders,think we're are jinxed regarding No1's..We do not pay what the Promotion can't afford for replacements.
  2. never see a bad meeting at Scunny,, deserves better support based on entertainment value.
  3. The rider he was replacing has returned to action now though and his average might not fit then or why do they not use him ?He rode at no2 at the start of the season so if he was no8 who's rides did he take if you say he was a No8
  4. They dropped him last week! Only having a guess same as everyone else ,bored with lack of meetings.Dont run or use R/R that's what we are doing already.
  5. You need to go to matches hoping to be entertained(it looks as though this was a cracker) make up of teams is secondary nowadays.Everybody tries to pull a fast one if they can.Guests R/R and calling off matches is normal nowadays for your Clubs benefit .
  6. Huckenbeck would do job if it is him.
  7. Ithink the enquiry into Peters death established the George Hunters engined seized.
  8. The riders just don't give a toss regarding fans nowadays,everything has to be perfect before the bike comes out of the van..Health and Safety can't beat it .Liecester is an example of new well supported club going down the tubes because of the state the sport is in.
  9. r&r is correct no points awarded for last chance race -off therefore went back to points scored .Commentator explained it on the night.
  10. They were all giving it everything is my explanation which doesn't happen at PL level .
  11. A slick at smaller venues you can get away with as he riders keep fairly close,but a slick track at the larger tracks like Berwick leads to pretty boring meetings IMO as the riders are not going to thrash their engines for nothing and the racing gets pretty spaced out.Riders at Berwick get beat by the length of the strait in one heat then win by the length of the strait in their next heat!!!! Not good viewing.
  12. Unless the weather intervenes I agree.Good to see TJ back to his best in recent matches after his injury hit start to the season.
  13. Heard Berwick are not lending out their Track Covers (just in case).
  14. you really should take our league position with a pinch of salt,reality will kick in if the weather improves.
  15. Trouble is the majority of the riders want Slick track nowadays and hope they can make a gate
  16. Speedway Promoters have to sort things out though to many meetings can't be arrange because of missing riders and self interest.Should the Banner state Speedway every Saturday when that is not the fact.British speedway needs a complete revamp.It won't happen though.
  17. Agree,the Banner in the Town Centre advertises speedway every Saturday which won't help the cause when people turn up to find no meeting .The high of the holiday season and very few meetings same last year.
  18. Thats Speedway!.As he is not a No 1 at Lynn so r/r.No1 at Newcastle so they have a choice r/r or Guest
  19. Was that as good a meeting as Nig and Kelvin made it out to be.Apart from the drama regarding score line was the racing any thing special.?
