Agree.

it will be interesting to see if speedway still has 40,000 mugs(sorry fans)turning up at Cardiff ,if they do it just proves that it is away day and booze that is the main feature of the week -end.

Don't know why there was such an issue over the starting gate though,not ideal bur hardly a huge issue they should have been told to get on with it.To much time wasted trying for solution.They have rules in place is this occurs.To mess 50,0000+spectators about is unacceptable?Why would they have got through 20 heats the track would have been in same condition,the riders dictated things IMO .poor excuses from everybody concerned

Some of his performances after GP week ends would suggest he is..

James Wright?

Bearing in mind the 1st three matches were local derbies at the start of a season there was a fair few away supporters.The trouble is the entertainment was not great IMO ,therefore don't think many will return as neutral during the season.Things can only get better hopefully.The team is looking a little suspect though,hopefully Hynek will steady the ship a little .

This must be the case if you say so.

Another one.total trivia I think the poster was pointing out that Allen has machinery for sale was the real jistof the story,and judging by Sat night our riders maybe should be phoning him.think he has a point.

It's amusing that you only comment on trivial matters,deafening silence on the important issues that you choose too ignore when any thing negative is said against the Promotion(justified or not).Everybody that makes a comment on here is told by the usual mob it's just to make them feel important!!!!!!!!!

I think green light starts should be introduced more even starts on Sat when it was used.dont see what all the fuss was about the riders just have to look forward instead of looking to the side.Never seen one roller apart from Doyle and the wasn't a roller it was blatant misjudgement.

we are lacking in the reserve department.

don't think they are the level that they were a few seasons ago.Plenty of gaps in the home strait crowd now IMO.Just an opinion though might be totally wrong.Liked the look of Riss at Glasgow yesterday even though he did not score much looks a talent to me,and will be ok when he gets up to speed.

Gutted for Simon top guy,speedy hope for full recovery.Seb Alden ? He likes Sheffield.

Its still good to see that opposition fans can still stand together in our sport and apart from banter have nothing to fear.

The refs don't though.

That's been the Monarchs secret of success then.Pay of the ref first though.

It might sound stupid be the sport needs to slowed down and tracks made deeper and harder to ride requiring more skill and throttle control.These guys are sitting with the throttle on the stop these days and a speck of dirt on the track is catching them out.A nice even coating of dirt is required to learn them throttle control.It was noticable years ago that second half riders who looked great when the track was getting slick struggled in heat 2 of the main meeting when they got a chance in the Team,but at least they had to learn to ride a track with a bit of dirt.

One thing that is noticeable is the number of times races are called back for James Sargeant anticipating the start is getting out of hand.watch him last season on TV. Matches and he was the same.Called back today, then the ref let the rerun go when he did the same thing.Only my opinion though.

first visit to the refurbished Ashfield,full credit to the promotion for the scale and quality of the work done it is first class.Meeting didn't quite live up to expectations but certainly not anything to with track or facilities.Poor start from Monarchs took the edge of the meeting IMO .Sedgeman was dire why he got 4 rides,at least Branford would have gave 100%.

Have to agree regarding Green light starts,they looked much better that the normal Tapes start no rollers,perhaps transponders on the bikes might be the way forward!

I agree speedway should come first.It is just a circus now.The ref was a joke regarding the tapes incidents,what he must think this morning when he looks back!!!!!!! there was not a lot wrong with the green light starts,don't see what all the fuss regarding that was about regarding that issue that is in the rules in event of this happening.The riders were not caring about the paying public shame on them.I have seen them ride on far worst tracks when there is a thought that they will lose some earnings.

You can bet there will be no fines or suspensions for walking out though.

These business men aren't millionaires for nothing.they can always make buck.

Exactly the riders have double standards when it suits them.

Stats can say anything you want them to say.
