racers and royals

Without both- we wouldn`t have speedway.

So tell me why was the result was amended a few years ago in the Peterborough v Poole match when a wrong +5% was used by Poole for an away guest rider. points were taken away. didn`t the ref cock-up that night as well ?

The old tac sub rule was dropped for 2 reasons 1 the promoters couldn`t afford it 2 the 2nd strings and reserves earnings were suffering because of being taken out of rides(sometimes their easiest as well) and they just couldn`t make speedway pay,

Are you on a wind-up. Not Swindon`s fault- How long has Rosco been team managing ? he nominated BWD for the ride- yes the ref was incompetent. however Swindon have gained 2 race points illegally- and if speedway has a shread of credibility left then the SCB must amend the result- and if and when they do Swindon would have no complaint !!!!

It is simple- makes you wonder why Rosco, Lemo and the ref can`t add up to 3 !!!!

The Extraleague have published the full result of the Laguta hearing https://speedwayekstraliga.pl/wp-content/uploads/2017/01/Komunikat54.pdf Rybnik have been docked 3 points- and are relegated. Torun finished level on points with them but Torun had a better season head to head with Rybnik. Torun will now play the runners up in the Nice Polska league final Tarnow or Gdansk in the promotion/relegation play-off.

I`m not disappointed or otherwise. that`s why I said if Newcastle want a facility he will get a ban or they will decide to go with a "wobbler at 1 " Edit what the Polish fixture getting rained off has to do with it I`ve no idea.

The stupid thing in all of this, in my opinion is that a rider who is thrown out of a race for 2 starting offences CAN ACTUALLY BE REPLACED. If the rider had just been excluded and not replaced that would count as a ride. For messing about at the start why should they be replaced ?? it`s not as if we are going to have loads of 3 rider races because of it !!!!

Lambert won`t be there- I believe. He is riding for Lublin in Poland. Probably a 28 day ban for withholding his services, if Newcastle get a facility.

Rosco hardly comes out of it smelling of roses either !!!!!

The 2N against Musielak in heat 12 would confirm the 2 min exclusion.

Scorechart is up on BSPA website http://www.speedwaygb.co/17results/swindon_14.09.17_res.pdf and it`s plain as one can see that he`s missing a minimum ride !!!!

Ghostie- have you seen anything yet to say if C More are covering next Tuesday`s match Vetlanda v Rospiggarna live on the sport channel ?

Lets hope Lasse Schmidt is around and uploads it to youtube- he missed the last TV match a couple of weeks ago.

I was there that night as well- as a neutral(well hoping Peterborough would win )

It was Barbara- and I thought you had a team manager as well

they were also using R/R and it all got a bit messy- the illegal guest took an illegal R/R or something like that- Matt Ford came up with a marvellous excuse for the cock-up saying he hadn`t attended the conference so wasn`t aware the rule had changed. !!!!!! I wonder what Rosco`s excuse will be

How come the Poole illegal 5% for an away guest at Peterborough was amended the following day- no difference here.

The SCB must amend the result and can do irrespective of any protest- especially as this is a 2 legged contest. Also scorechart still not up on BSPA website.

I guarantee that the result will be amended today by deducting BWD`s score in heat 12.

Nice wasn`t it - that`s what team managers get paid for and that was only done because Belle Vue pulled a fast one over the facility.

Can anyone name and shame the ref- not surprisingly the scorecard is not yet up on the BSPA website !!

As far as I can see the Danish league for this semi are not using the match points system of starting with these points depending on the finishing position(3-6) in the regular season.So it looks as if it`s a straight contest with the top 2 scorers at the end going on to the final next Wednesday- where we might see the match points in operation !!!!!!

Their choice

not if replaced
