I am interested in all speedway but it seems alot to me for something that discovery plus were doing a lot cheaper last year. Premiership is available on BSN which in my opinion is better presented and better value but I dont buy the whole package. Also some speedway you could get through Amazon Prime which wont happen now.

I pick and choose which I watch, don't have full package. BSN is better value than TNT if you look at the amount of meetings they cover

I am not paying 30.99 a month to watch speedway on tv.

I won't either if it is only on TNT, Discovery I could watch through Amazon Prime but not sure if that option will be available.

So are you forced to get tnt or is there still a cheaper discovery plus option?

So just another good speedway meeting at Belle Vue, nowhere near the event at Cardiff was.

I just think that it is a bit short sighted because the racing was much better last year and that would have boosted this years attendance. Crowd levels were very poor last year mainly due to the poor racing the year before.

Maybe they are still sorting out Cardiff refunds!

I agree with you, the reason it is now seen as not viable for Cardiff is declining crowds but the reason last year was so poorly attended was because the previous year the racing was very poor, last year the racing was pretty good so I would have expected that to have had a positive effect on the crowd so maybe considering this they should have let it run for another year in my opinion.

Max was given time but he wasnt good enough, cant see him staying at Glasgow all season.

Yes I remember that interview, so he must consider the racing he does to be far less dangerous and of course he is right.

He is bitter at Ipswich speedway full stop, he hates them, do not know why. I like the way they build teams, to entice Emil to ride here is a massive feather in their cap, in my view the most exciting team to watch, who would not want to see Emil and Doyley ride every week.

I think the problem will not be our reserves it will be Kerr, the way the team has been built we could have had a higher averaged rider or a new rider with an assessed 8.50.

I am sure there were many teams after Cairns and he chose us, Springer may well have a deal already for 2026, who knows, maybe he did not want to sign for just a few meetings, either way it does not stop anyone signing him for 2026 next season whoever he is currently riding for.

That maybe a different Chris Harris!

Personally from my point of view I think top 4 are cut and dried, Birmingham, Leicester and Oxford look like they will struggle. Kings Lynn could do a Peterborough with a strength in depth but unlikely, I would think it is between the other three but with Sheffield a lot depends on how Rowe goes, he could be a key rider, Hume will struggle and I doubt Flint will improve much so good top 5 but bottom end could be a let down so I expect a Ipswich v Belle Vue final.

It may have been a problem getting someone to only do a few meetings knowing you will be replaced and it really does not matter who it is.

There seem to be a lot of challengers for the play offs and so there should be some cracking meetings especially at Belle Vue.

And why they see it a problem I have no idea. Track conditions are the same for both teams and as they have had many previous meetings at lunchtime they should be able use it to their advantage.

Only if they are stricken with injuries again. If Rowe can improve a little he could be a match winner for Sheffield and make them strong challengers.

I wondered how long it would take for the jokes on his name. There are usually strong gusts at the NA.

Oh yes forgot that so my original point was they let him go and then did not build the team to the limit.

True but surely the club they are riding for should have first refusal so maybe Harris decided he did not want to ride for Oxford anymore.

Yes I meant Oxford!

Oxford keep making mistakes, last they dropped Klindt and why have they let Harris go to Kings Lynn?
