THE DEAN MACHINE

No, it’s well prepared and on the whole smooth and except for hitting the dirt line is not hard to ride, it’s not technical and doesn’t really have straights and although it’s fast it’s not really difficult to ride at speed but it takes balls to hit the dirt line so close to the fence but as I said they could take away that dirt line but the riders want it

The reason is business outside of speedway apparently but the dire situation speedway is in won’t of helped

No more than any other track that has dirt on it

It’s easy to race too. Passing is only on outside if they let the dirt build up, they could easily grade it away but that’s what the riders want, they want the dirt line

Sheffields track is no more dangerous than any other, it’s faster for sure but its pretty easy to ride and only seems dangerous when dirt builds up on outside, jack holder- so what the sport needs villains, team manager, knows his stuff and winds up opposing fans,that’s his job, fans at least they create atmosphere especially the 2nd bend barmy army

Tolley is waiting for something else to come along but with that venture stuck he might take the Sheffield gig as a stop gap, his right hand man has already gone elsewhere

Is British speedway about to become a franchise, speedway futures Ltd is the brand, each track is a franchise and pay a % to the brand ?

There is a meeting of the great minds scheduled this week, maybe it’s to discuss to top secret plan that is so big that nobody will say what it is or maybe it’s to tell them all the bspl is bankrupt, who knows, we wait with great expectations

This answer isn’t going to be pc but the reason is on the whole the riders don’t give a hoot about rules like cut outs after a race or helmets on parade, if you see them away from speedway they are in the main just having fun and doing stuff that your average Joe doesn’t do and safety doesn’t come into it

Well done Leicester, good effort Sheffield, real winner again the greatest sport on the planet

Yes

Magic gating like a kid at a training school

Can’t see the transponders fitted to the bikes

If you have transponders the camera is irrelevant

They have cameras on the bikes and a drone but it never occurred to anyone to put a camera on the start line and what’s happened to the transponders ?

I came up 2 months ago, a few of us booked the track, got here and it didn’t stop raining and it got called off

Weather was appalling from heat 1, track held up really well, vison was a problem, around heat 14 the rain just got heavier and heavier and by heat it was too much, fair play to all riders who got on with it and at least got 18 heats in, a few of us are staying at the track tonight in the hope of riding in an amateur meeting tomorrow, it supposed to be a dry sunny day but the track at the moment is just a flooded mud bath and it’s suppose rain for the rest of the night

That bit been for years but I hear rumblings that all is not well at bspl towers, maybe that’s the reason for the speedway futures thing

Is the bspl bankrupt ?

Good to hear the crowd getting stuck in too

Really enjoyed that

Inconsistent from ref, how can exclude rowe but not exclude howarth for doing the same move in previous start

It’s all going on here

Before seeing rerun I thought howarth should of gone for that, after seeing rerun he should definitely gone

You do know it hurts even when “you throw it down”
