we should not be "protecting" riders in certain heats, it just leads to anomalies and who can sign the better No 7 as has happened in EL.By all means have "3 point young rider" but just let them get on with it if they are good enough if not they can be replaced with another young rider. You can't Fast Track speedway riders it's just a stupid phrase IMO

Fine,only my opinion of your post though.

THANKS so just a bit of a stir then.

Perhaps you could explain how another sports deals with its finances has got to do with this thread?

Depends on deal rider makes with Promoter surely.Many variations I would imagine.

realistically can't see Barker back,an attractive average but past his best. Something wasn't right with that IMO

You will notice that the Berwick thread has reponded to the challenge for bickering rights.!!!!!!

Thanks Thanks

were any riders in attendance?

See were making a good attempt to get back on course and upstage the Glas/ Edin thread for bickering rights. !!!!!!!!!!

Yeah,there's probably a lot more too it than we know.

A few hangovers this morning I would assume,after the big Week-End.!!!!!!! Ps I am not talking about the Play off Final.

I would like to know how many Monarchs FANS genuinely think Tigers running on the same night would affect attendances at Armadale.IMO the Tigers promotion have a point,but do feel the last couple of paragraphs in the "Letter" are a little petty and unprofessional.

c'mon guys your upsetting the Berwick Fans with all this bickering,hogging the limelight.!!!!

Correct!

I don't know as I didn't organise it !! But what I would suggest is Edin & Glas had to rush the Final this week-end because Masters and Sedgeman are of to Oz this week for GP.

Cooks speed In his heats last night was spectacular his pass on Lawson and away into the distance was brilliant.

No big deal though .

Some of them might be at Promoters AGM which I believe is this weekend.I agree with your sentiments though if it was possible.

Have to agree,don't really thinks riding on the same evening would make any significant difference to either clubs attendances.Glasgow seem to have boosted their crowds this season so in the long run that would help Speedway in general.

Well done to Monarchs,Cook Masters and Wolbert are sheer class round the Dale.Lawson,Sargeant and Sticky got pass marks for effort .The other 3 !!!!!!!!!!!!!

maybe cause they are listening to the fans,plus the fact Sunday racing limits the riders who are available due to foreign commitments.Thats 2 reasons I reckon.

There are plenty meetings at this time of year run on wet tracks with ruts ect.Lighting isn't brilliant at a lot of tracks ,I'm sure if it is a problem at Ashfield it will be rectified for next season.Should not be used as excuses.

Who gets Summers rides then?

He can get excluded/fined as it is ,do you ban every rider who "anticipates" the start.Its frustrating but the Ref is the one who controls the buttons.We have seen from TV that it's 50/50 whether it was good start or a "flyer" from the rider concerned,maybe they have to look at the Refs.
