Fromafar replied to Shadders's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Inconsistancy from race to race for the majority of the Team seems to the problem this season.IMO -

Looking at Edward!s score last night don't thing he has done much wrong.Maybe not the invincible Superstar that some people were billing him though.Pl is a tough league to dominate. For any rider and IMO Cook is the only stand out rider this season. -

With Tully back and abit of luck Newcastle will be hard to stop.Somerset are their main rivals IMO. -

Barkers PL form seems to have slumped this season compared to previous ones.Think he has found his level IMO -

Fromafar replied to Shadders's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
I have to agree,Berwick are under performing excuses will be made but at the end of the day results are important to a lot of fans. Hard to see a top 6 finish but would be happy to be proved wrong. -

Difficult to see where an away will come from if that was our best chance!! -

My confidence took a knock when we failed to win at Glasgow earlier in the season.Edward will have get his finger out if the Team are to get results on the road,which he should be able to do. -
Laugh Out Loud.....it's British Speedway
Fromafar replied to speedway_dan's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
I don't see anything wrong with starting with a points limit at the start of the season(say45as an example).If teams find that that team improves and is over the limit what is wrong with being able to keep it the next season.If a rider wishes to leave and has improved his average he can only be replace within his original average.that way teams might be able to build better teams and retain riders that the fans have an association with.IMO it would lead to stronger League set-up over the years .If some Teams become very strong and the Promotion can afford them good luck to them-they will be attract visitors to rival tracks.I 1965 when the leagues mergedCoventry WestHam Wimbledon came to Edinburgh and gave us a hammering it did not affect the crowd they looked forward to these challenges. That is only my opinion ,and am now away to look out my bullet proof vest. -

While I am hoping for something out of the meeting ,I disagree about your thought regarding our chance ,Sheffield is a difficult track for away Teams .Sheffield do look weak though.Joe Haines is the key man IMO if he has a good meeting it might swing it. -

Team speedway these days is just Home Team Select v Away Team Select and IMO is the one of the main reasons fans are deserting the sport. Different riders every season for no other reason than Averages is wrong . -

It will be interesting to see what impact that meeting has on the Berwick croŵds for the rest of the season,certainly we're not great before the Sky fixture,they went out there way to make it a success here is hoping it has had the desired effect for the rest of the season. Attendances appeared to have dropped at a number of tracks this season if what you read is correct. -
Scott and Sophie were good at least Sophie does not need someone in her ear telling her what questions to ask,as some people make out that that is all that is wrong with Charlie on Sky.You feel confident that Sophie is not going to ask stupid. Questions.Scott was patient with the Eurosport guy who obviously hadn't a clue.

I agree thought Tai should have been excluded. -

Though Lingren was unlucky to get excluded for Tia crash,dont think he made Tai changed his line that much,when you see what KK did on Emil .still wish Tai Speedy recovery. -
Plymouth small out-in-the-country .? !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!.Population 250.000+

That depends on which Team you sign for if you go by previous decisions.

Berwick V Newcastle - Live On Sky - May 21st
Fromafar replied to luluthetiger's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
That tells me that the track should be heavily watered the day before the meeting if the forecast allows ,don't know if this is what happens normally,A fairly well watered track always produces good racing after the first few heatsI IMO . -

I fail to see your point regarding the Promotions press release,Perhaps you could (in your opinion) Explain what wrong with it.It was an apology for the poor showing of the Team over the Week-end and assuring the fans that it has to improve.

Long Track for Pepe ,he would never be there. -
While I don't dispute your post,I do think that a lot of fans now don't take it seriously because off the riders and team situation and just pick and choose when to attend meetings as opposed to be a regular every week plus I know a lot of regular fans who have just gave up .I don't think many Teams have a increased attendance these days.I really think fans want to see their riders every week and International speedway is killing Team racing in UK. Most fans will except injuries for missing riders as part and parcel of the sport but as for all the missing riders .Well.

Strange why Joe wants to make those statements on social networking ,does him no favours all round.The promotion would have to say something after the week-end the team has just had.he should be discussing it with the management first IMO.Shows the mentality of some riders. -

Fromafar replied to Paulco's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
you probably missed the riders moaning in the pits regarding any track watering nowadays ,track grading and light watering should happen in these conditions but modern technology seems to be against this.No thought regarding the paying public -
Edinburgh,the only Team on maximum points in the league
