I bet Rob and the track staff could get the track race able but after last weeks shambles can't see the point of risking it again

I might be going on my bike so I'm up for it, I've ridden a speedway bike many moons ago. Anyone know if they have secure parking for motorbikes at Leicester

We're coming to the nlrc on Sunday and I thought Leicester had there own parking. I'm sure we've never had a problem on our visits before. Bit of a random question Gem but I don't suppose you know if they let motorbikes into the stadium to park securely do you? Might fancy a ride down

Sad but understandable

We must have been feeling mean the day we went to get a taxi, there was 3 of us so £10 each would be a no brainier tbh. The bus journey was very cheap but not enjoyable.

This wouldn't have happened in our first 5 years also we wouldn't have conseeded a 2nd leg of a cup and we have never not got our meetings finished on time before

As said bus from Bydgoszcz bus station is cheap , we nearly got a taxi but it was really expensive. The bus as a stop right outside the stadium as far as I can remember

Not a totally disappointing evening then

I know this is an impossible question to answer but I'm going to this but will have to leave at 5.45. What's the chances of it being finished by then? This should be interesting. Lol

Funny though, hang on maybe I'm an old fella these days. Certainly feels like it

I'm not sure what I believe anymore re anything to do with speedway

That's ok then I was a bit worried I liked a post that wasn't genuine

Just watched a Polish play off meeting where Tai's team got a 5-1 in last heat. Tai leapt over the air fence and climbed up the outer fence with the Polish fans going bonkers. Can't imagine we will ever see that passion again in the UK from riders or fans

Ive liked your post Speedibee but sitting here wondering if your being a tad sarcastic

I've done Somerset a fair few times and always seen cracking racing, M5 on a Friday's a nightmare though. Really enjoyed Glasgow seemed upbeat and loads of youngsters which was unusual for speedway. Went up and back the same day, no problem! Had an overnight stay when we did Edinburgh then Workington. Still got Newcastle, Berwick and Redcar to do so that's my plan for next season

I think I'm on the verge of giving up on team speedway, whoever runs or doesn't next year I think il just pick my meetings up and down the country and have days out but not when there's a hint of rain about

I really don't think we could run at Perry Barr without the Brummies being main residents and call ourself Cradley. Just wouldn't sit right for some reason and I don't think enough of us would keep going there. Funnily enough though I think it would work at Monmore without the Wolves. Monmore seems more like home for some reason. Never thought I'd say that years ago

Anyone get a feeling it's the end of the brummies and us

Let's hope the fans turn up

First two heats were a bit tentative but not dangerous, Cook going through the tapes was deliberate. After heat 3 the track was graded and Josh Auty came out full blast. Next heat Cook flew for 2 and half laps then seemed to realise he was making the track look good so slowed for a lap and half. The ones gone up in my estimation the other one down. God help Cook in the gps if he leaves a gap with one of the young Poles behind him. Plenty changes of underpants. The racing for the next 5 heats wasn't too bad getting better with each race. To then call it off was a shambles as the track was the best it had been all night. Quite simply the riders didn't want to ride

If you read between the lines of Rob Godfreys post on the Scunthorpe site it's pretty obvious what went on and the meeting should have carried on. Then again by then most had lost the will to live including Rob by the sound of it though I don't blame him. Lost the will to live mmmm how many times as that been quoted this year

I was there ,that track was race able especially after a couple of heats, the attitude of some of the riders was "I've seen GP riders and other top riders get meetings off now it's our chance to have a strop" .The only way I could justify some of the riders actions was the fact that maybe there just not good enough to handle the conditions. Could I or would I want to ride on it, of course not I'm not a speedway rider but these guys decided they want to ride powerful bikes on dirt tracks. If you don't want to do it don't do it. That track wasn't dangerous. Rant over Il just rant a bit more, if last night had been a NL meeting the riders would have got on with it no problem Rob Godfrey said he's going to give it one more go which I presume he meant next season, good luck to him because I felt like packing it in especially away meetings but I suppose it's my own fault travelling with a chance of rain

Albert has said all I was going to say, il back it up with an utter farce to say the track was getting worse when in fact it was improving with every race. Any rider who was moaning at heat 10 just give them a ban. Tail wagging the dog. You could tell Rob wasn't impressed but stayed diplomatic. Il repeat what's been said loads of times this season that any newbies would never return and that could have lost a few regulars tonight. Well done to the Scunthorpe officials, they did a remarkable job getting it on. Pity the employees run the show these days

I remember him on the Mike at Cradley once saying he didn't understand why Cradley fans boo him. Trouble is he pronounced us as CrAdley. You can imagine how that went down. I'm presuming our fans boo d him for some incident with Penhall. The booing started before the 82 incident

Imagine how guest feels
