  1. A bit like that overnight sensation Brady Kurtz? Stumbled on a special engine? Or maybe you have him down as a genuine generational talent? (For the record, Brady’s also using an AshTek engine. Or maybe it’s several?)
  2. Don’t worry, it’s only the voices in his head that give him these tips
  3. What were the Edinburgh Riders and Management doing to miss that? With riders, mechanics and management, there must have been at least 20 people who missed something happening in plain sight. How did those pesky Glaswegians hide it from them all?
  4. Is there a way to watch this or have I missed a post?
  5. Don’t spoil a good rant by the anti-Poole non speedway attending troll with the truth. You’ll turn him into Glug Glug Glug rather than Bob Bob Bob as he sinks below the waters of Herne Bay
  6. Joe Screen seems to be getting nostalgic these days so how about him?
  7. December 31st then. At least top league does which is why Sheffield are planning to race on Wednesday
  8. Maybe Matt should buy a London bus to help tyre packing the track and smooth out some of the bumps? I seem to recall that Stewart Dickson used to use one of his at Glasgow….but that was a long while ago.
  9. Will Glasgow use Jordy Loftus next week if Max isn’t back or continue to use Dayle? They seem to be the only two CL riders that fit
  10. I suppose that depends on what the owner wants. As with many seasons, the team was built to lose away but win at home but the loss of an out and out number one meant only 3 home wins and the inevitable drop in crowd numbers - a winning team won’t necessarily bring in more supporters but a losing one certainly keeps them away. There is one rider that has excelled this year but you can bet his phone has been red hot with calls from rival promoters. Not offering him a 2026 team place, of course, as that will breach the rules but saying “if you’re thinking of making a change, you’ve got my number” But the other six need to be moved on as none have been comfortable round EWR. Maybe it’s the change to one of those hard polyfoam barriers - second hand from Glasgow - that has put them off? Whatever the reasons for a disappointing season, the supporters deserve better, in my opinion. And hopefully, that’s what will happen in 2026
  11. So I see now. The line up on Liveupdates had Zische in his place but has been changed. Glasgow now looking too strong for Poole
  12. I’ve missed the announcement - why is Howarth missing?
  13. BSN is a commercial enterprise independent of BSPL/SCB and they don’t have the right let alone the power to fine anyone. The fight should have boosted their business and they will be grateful for it. I suspect the ruling bodies will see it differently as they seem to have lost sight of what constitutes entertainment.
  14. But you know what will happen - Harrison will realise he has to get out if he wants to progress leaving the other six staying.
  15. Professional foul by Lambert or just good luck that Allen got more time to work on his bike?
  16. Well, “everyone” except Edinburgh last Wednesday (58-32) and Oxford 3 days later (55-35)
  17. My prediction - kiss of death for some - is top four will be Poole, Glasgow, Edinburgh and…….Redcar. Scunny build a team to win at home, disappoint away and they’ve only managed the latter this year. Worky are hit and miss, likewise Oxford, and Plymouth and Berwick will miss out again. Then, unless they meet in the semis, the final will be Glasgow and Edinburgh with Edinburgh coming out on top.
  18. I assume he is racing on an Australian licence so no. Which is a shame really. Another rider who has moved on from respecting Britain to using us. Mind you, I accept that, as a journeyman rider who has probably peaked, he has to maximise his income somehow. He may well have been fined by Leszno for missing meetings - being injured in another league is no excuse in Poland as Martin Vaculik found out when he broke his ankle at Swindon - but Britain lacks the strength to be able to do the same.
  19. Yes. If not exactly 3000, certainly very close. Maybe 2999
