Abandoned after 10?

What have Scunthorpe riders got against track staff???

The article was written on Wednesday/Thursday of last week. Things change. George was interviewed by Roy during the break for the air-fence repair (during the Newcastle v Scunny match at Brough Park on Sunday) and he said it was "Kevin Doolan and Aaron Summers at Scunthorpe, Danny King and Kyle Newman at Peterborough and Ricky Wells at Berwick."

He's riding for his Premiership club, so Scunny allowed a guest.

That is what we were told at Newcastle tonight

Thanks for that.... think I'll give it a miss....

ANY clues to the line-ups????

Don't forget the extra £1 to sit in the stand...

Rob Grant style!!

We've almost got that this year (with the exception of Ipswich in our League and Belle Vue in the Premiership). We are more likely heading towards one league (not next year necessarily, but certainly in a few years time) , but a 'watered down' version to the one we had in 1995 & 1996. If it means bringing on the youngsters to help Team GB and British speedway in general, then it's the only option in my opinion.

Robbo's debut was at Sheffield. Lewis got injured at Edinburgh, so Robbo couldn't have made his debut then!!

He got a 12-day ban

Dan Bewley rode Motocross before he switched to speedway, same as John Louis (although it was 'Scrambling' back in the day!!).

There's two threads: http://www.speedway-forum.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=84967

According to the Tigers website: SHEFFIELD: Scott Nicholls, Todd Kurtz, Lasse Bjerre, Josh Bates, Kyle Howarth, Jan Graversen, Georgie Wood. NEWCASTLE: Robert Lambert, Ludvig Lindgren R/R, Stuart Robson, Ashley Morris, Steve Worrall, Ben Hopwood, Alfie Bowtell.

I should have also added 'short changed' the thousand or so that turned up at Peterborough for the Fours last week, too. Not only did Newcastle possibly suffer at the turnstiles (although looking 'side on' at the crowd it looked to be about the norm.), they would have had to fork out more on wages for the riders last night compared to if Holder had ridden, due to the extra points they scored by beating Rutherford.

It's not only 'short changing' the Peterborough fans, though is it? It's also 'short changing' the Newcastle fans last night and, apparently, the Scunthorpe fans next week, too.

Sh*t. Just looked to who I was replying to!

And Peterborough's official raceday is???? I can see Josh Embleton riding for Peterborough tonight at this rate.

You've committed a cardinal sin here, I'm afraid to say - you've fed the troll.

Newcastle v Barrnsley (Sun 7 May) kicked off 12 noon. Tomorrow's kicks off at 1.30pm.

Restaurant back open, but upstairs bar still closed... http://www.newcastlediamonds.co/news/article.asp?id=100764
