Scunthorpe v Workington. Knockout Cup Final 1st Leg
montie replied to Tosh1218's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
because the owner of Scunthorpe is vice-chairman of the BSPA and according the this forum this gives us the right to do what we like when it comes to team selections and guests last i heard actaully next year we will be building to 57 point average where as the rest will have 36 points a 6 riders -

therefore de valueing the product further when you cant get a suitable guest? sadly the nature of speedway is you will need guest riders at some point throughout the season and its is up to teams to get the strongest guest they can as the nature of the game is to win i cant see an alternative,although is seems wrong as you pointed out its is also right that Scunny[in this instance] have the best best guest to replace someone who,around the EWR is actaully unreplaceable ...Auty -
Scunthorpe v Workington. Knockout Cup Final 1st Leg
montie replied to Tosh1218's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Edinburgh is hardly slick.... To be fair you don't get to an 8plus average just liking slick tracks... Wells is a good rider.. Very professional to Alot could learn alot from him actually -
therefore it is ones choice to enter the stadium when the weather is a bit iffy

is that not the same policy adopted at all tracks though?

Lakeside V Peterbrough Play Off Semi Final 14-10-18
montie replied to Chris116's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Wettest month of 2017...August... Almost impossible to call what time of year is dry sadly.. Only real difference is takes longer to dry out at this time of year -
Peterborough v Scorpions 13.10.18 7pm
montie replied to ScunnyDan's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
I'm not sure you can totally blama him.. It was a hell of a lot of points to make up after the first leg thrashing.. But it was a fine effort by the Panthers early in the meeting Seems the Panthers just ran out of steam in the last half of the meeting Shame injuries caught both teams as two full teams on two of the fairest race tracks in the league would have made a proper semi final shootout Hope Boro can salvage something today against Lakeside.. The club deserves a final this season -
from a simple selfish point of view i hope 2019 is the same as 2018 as ive seen some outstanding speedway this year at many tracks,and for 15 or 16 quid ive been very well entertained the racing at Scunny has been top draw this year,seen excellent meetings on well prepped tracks at Boro,Redcar ,Workington,Sheffield etc, plus the BT sports presentation of the League and the GPs have been tip top,Also enjoyed the unfancied teams emerging this year such and Worky and Berwick [ ill even confess to become a secret Bandits fan toward the end] only bad meeting ive seen all year was the Swindon dust bowl on TV i hope the clubs with an uncertain future manage to find solutions and arrive at the tapes next season and entertain me as much as they have this year

Kings Lynn v Poole Playoff Final 2nd leg 10/10/18
montie replied to Steve Shovlar's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
as a neutral a thought the meeting over two legs was good and kept me well entertained shame that injuries etc had an influence on the outcome but that is how speedway is Congrats to Poole and bad luck on the Stars shame the thread is full of negativity tho --i thought it was good..... and great to see such a Big crowd in at Lynn -

montie replied to ScunnyDan's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
I wasn't aware Rob was riding this evening.. As far as I'm aware you lost to 6 riders representing Scunthorpe -
unbelievable really that dispite what seems a fanstatic effort by the Boro promotion to get the meeting completed there are folk moaning about being cold and delays sometimes there is feck all you can do about things going wrong and delays what a bloody world we live in,, Man up ffs and buy a bloody good coat Well done to Rathbone and all for not giving,finding a solution and completing the meeting

Workington v Edinburgh 29/09 7:00pm koc 2nd leg
montie replied to topaz325's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Wow.. What a come back that has been.. Incredible result. Well done Worky -
because it keeps the season alive This season was a really good nail biting race to gain a top 4 spot with a few teams in the mix right up to the cut off point even with a month to go the teams at the bottom had a outside chance which must be a good thing i think

Is Speedway still viable in the UK?
montie replied to JamesHarris's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
yes i think it is viable,why people dont go i have no idea!! Ive seen one meeting all yeat that was crap[Swindon dust bowl on TV] and the rest have been excellent meeting with competative racing on decent tracks seen all Scunnys home meetings,been at Sheffied many times,Redcar,P`boro plus all TV and i must say they have been really good,one of the best seasons entertainment ive seen for a few years Then reading on here threads from Glasgow,Workington, Ipswich where good racing was reported to be frank im not really sure what more promotions can do than to but on a decent meetings on well prepped tracks -
Peterborough V Berwick (CH) 09/09/2018
montie replied to ellioth4's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
also the faily neutral nature of the Show ground means this will always be case even if you had the top rider in the league Riders love the track there[and rightly so] and will always turn up have have more of a go than on some of the tighter tricky tracks
