Lambert v Bewley put to bed

We should be looking at & trying to sign both. At the end of the day Sweden & Poland will be priority for both of them.

Couldn't get him back from Brazil in time. We have a better midfield without him though

........ and ripping it up in Sweden too. Absolutely no chance of him coming back any time soon, for as long as he remains in the GP's at least

The season has been really bad but I'm not convinced the team for 2022 will be much better. They're talking about 2 'Rising Stars' next year (wrong imo), this most likely to be Mountain & Kinsley. Jorgensen, Lawson & Kerr already in for 2022. Peterborough are losing Pedersen, Wolves losing Schlein, will Crump continue, Sheffield could lose Holder as may look to stay abroad, also who really wants Batchelor now? Rider's will be at a premium next year unless more foreign rider's become available to the UK, this I don't see, especially the higher quality ones. You just look at the rider's at other Prem clubs & you just don't see them wanting to move, especially to King's Lynn. We will be the last pickings for them. We've also got the possibility of Oxford joining the league. I seriously do not hold out much hope for improvement at all.

Ain't most passing in Speedway down to rider error?? A quicker rider behind always makes the rider in front pull defensive moves. This has to be the most nonsense post on here. The racing was terrific. Belle Vue v Peterborough I hope is the final for the next 30yrs until others get better tracks in all honesty

Get what you're saying but it's down to value for money. The only value comes at playoff time & then it's still only certain tracks that offer it at that point, in terms of producing quality racing. Peterborough & Belle Vue are the top draw tracks in the uk, cannot be doubted. I couldn't justify paying to watch this sport week in week out on titchy tracks, ftg tracks etc.

Congratulations to Peterborough. A team written off by all. A team even through injuries managed to still keep up the momentum. Absolutely sensational

At the end of the day, we've been treated to probably the best top flight final in many many years. Loving it

14 rider's. You forgot the R/R twins up against each other tonight

But like I said before, everything Bewley has done this season around the NSS means nothing. The standard between the British Premiership & SON is night & day, chalk & cheese etc. Lambert is in the World top 10 9th in the Ekstraliga averages I would have picked Bewley a month ago but Lambert impressed me at both Torun GP's. Pretty sure (and rightly so) swung it for Stead & Allen too

This is not a new thing, especially in the uk.

I thought Louis had already stated that Crump will be included if he wants to another season

5 points I believe

After tonight the wrong U21 has been chosen

That bloke is an incredible Speedway team manager. There is nobody like him, seems to lift teams & rider's above their level.

I fully understand the upset of some with Bewley's exclusion but his performances at the NSS in the British Premiership isn't a reference for this meeting. None of the SON rider's apart from Brennan rides here week in week out. The gulf in standard between the Premiership & SON is absolutely huge, there is no advantage to racing for Belle Vue in this calibre of racing. It makes sense to go with the 2 SGP rider's, plus Lambert's most recent form has been very good

How about a mixture of both scoring systems?? Up to & including the semi finals it's all points scored during the meeting. Just those in the final are:- 1st - 25pts 2nd - 21 3rd - 19 4th - 18

And not sensible options either

Think it's quite obvious, it will be down to the lack of noise protection for residents.

Shows they're clearly the best 15 in the World then, which is exactly what the series should be

SGP qualification is an easy process. SGP Top 8 The remaining 7 from combining highest averages from Ekstraliga & Elitserien

Laguta is a bottle job. Throwing a clear run at the title away. You can see he's trying to ride to safe.

Let's not also forget that this is speedway. Laguta could end up in the fence. Nothing is certain until it's over.

Thomsen should be excluded for that
