Well we held them to 55, not your usual 60. 4 number ones in the same team no wonder you keep beating everybody, enjoyable meeting with a lot of red and yellow about, shame about the gate jumping its becoming a habit with some of the riders. Throught the track rode well.

Sorry Ive only just seen this, save me reading through the 9 pages could somebody give a quick sumarey of whats going on, I was at Brandon last friday and asked quite a few people if anything was happening but they all said it had gone quite on the subject. I know they spoke about it at the start of the season, but didnt realise it had gone so far. Ive been going to Brandon since 1973, its not my club but it would be strange not to go there again.

whats the weather like at the moment at monmore green.

Yea bring on the sunshine and the usual well prepared track we get at monmore green, Brummies by 20.

Enjoyable afternoon at Peterborough, nice sunshine and well prepared track, some of the racing was quite good and an amazing heat 15, Former Brummie Ostergaard comng from the back and fighting all the way with another former Brummie Sedgie. It will be a great shame if we lose this great stadium and track, hopefully somebody esle will come in and help out. I never thought I would ever say this but Margaret Vardy was the ref today and she did a good job of keeping the meeting running along steadily, the first 10 heats done in an hour, no messing about, the riders just came out and got on with it, no silly grading because the track had been well prepared before the meeting started. This kept the action coming even though we had the dreaded rirder replacement as well. Well done Referee Vardy.

Thanks BCD, I can do my programme now, hope the weather is clear.

Any idea of the teams for this meeting, Ive got the Panthers team of there web site, but they dont mention the Edinburgh team which seems a bit strange, help anybody, thanks in advance. Hope this isnt the last ever meeting, great stadium with a fantastic track.

The CO now there was a man who could present a meeting, sadly missed.

Sure I saw a quote in this weeks SS that it wouldent be sorted out till november.

There was a young family just in front us and they looked like first timers as well, after heat 6 they got up and went and we didnt see them again, Im hoping they moved to another part of the stadium but Im assuming they went home, It wasnt entertaining, exciting or of any real interest, seasoned supporters know it was just a blip and the next time you come you just might get a better meeting, but each meeting should be more professional, sadly last night it wasnt. Hoping the EL play off final if you get there is much better and the big event later in the month the NL 4s is treated to a better presentaion than last night. My Brother said to me last night just after heat 9, "why are they killing our sport" and sorry to say its probably true.

Im with Gemini on this, Ive stopped buying Programmes, Been going to speedway since 1973 and have a loft with 1000s of programmes in, I never look at them all they do is gather dust. Most of the programmes are full of adverts or news you already know about off the internet, it cant be upto date news in the prog and the amount of times you get to the stadium and look at the Prog and realise that there are going to be changes, it just seems all very pointless. I would like to see promoters trying both for a season and see how they do, printed team sheet and a programme for the same event and see who bothers with each one, it would be a team sheet every time for me. Got to go now and fill my Programme in.

Cockle, Armstong and Halsey ex Brummies still riding.

Thanks for clearing that up, as it was heat 10 and gone 10.30 I thought that was it.

I thought they had gotten to the curfew it was getting on for 10.30pm.

You get them with every track, there are a couple of blokes that support the Brummies you wouldent want to stand next to at an away track, morans is the only word you can use in there case. we were stood next to a couple that know Dan Greenwood and are Heathens supporters and they were ok.

Well that was dusty on a lovely warm day in great sunshine, a couple of good races, I thought the reserve O`verge looked quite good, off the pace but seemed well in control of his bike none of this flapping about at the back. Halsey worthy winner and Worrell did well to come second as well, shame about Jacobs in the run off for third. Ive been to two meeting over the weekend involving Cradley and both have kicked off to some extent.

it depends on what you want to watch, do you want to watch a bunch of kids trying to make there way in the sport you follow, being paid a pittance and risking there lives to give you some entertainment or watch a few very well paid premadonnas sticking a little ball down a hole 18 times. If it comes down to Balls I think the speedway riders has bigger ones. Speedway every time for me.

Hope all you lucky buggers who are in stockholm have a good time and the meeting is good for you, went last year and had a fantastic time really nice city and great stadium, wish I was there but stuck watching it on Tele instead.

The whole incident could have been prevented if the Ref had excluded one or both riders when he put the red lights on for delaying the start, As one who was there as soon as the red lights came on I automatically looked at the riders lights expecting to see one of them lit up. This didnt happen they just sorted themselves out and then the trouble began as they went into the first corner and the rest you know. Silly incident that shouldent of happened if the Ref had made the right decision, the BSPA must look into this as well as the riders and officals the whole thing was a disgrace.

Is the line up advertised how they will ride in the meeting, barring Ollie greenwood of course who got injured last night at coventry, good luck to him and hope it heals quickily. Its a while since I went to Rye and looking forward to it hope the weather holds.

So glad your staying open, the NL isnt that bad a league.

Did a couple of seasons for the brummies, great starter and good rider on his day, good luck to him.

World league what about an australian team or south africa and america, Argentina or Italy and the Czech republic and not forgetting FInland, Norway and the Germans, world league! Ha!

Your crowd was bound to drop. Not in the play offs, one off the bottom of the league, lost quite a few at home, it was on the telly, riders missing and you know how fickle Supporters are hopefully you will get some better crowds when the New Stadium built just for speedway is built and the sooner the better. Not a regular at Belle Vue, went when the Brummies were there and a few times since you moved from the Great Hyde Road track over the years but the standard of the stadium has dropped in all that time, the sooner you move the better for all concerned the riders, the staff, the supporters and the Promoters, roll on 2016.

The things you learn on here, I never even knew there was a Hasting speedway.
