A pathetic and disproportionate reply by an individual or individuals unable to let go.

Strengthens them even with Morris having a poor season.

Putting pressure on an interested party would seem more likely.

If the 'Glasgow Two' dont appeal we could always whip the transformer out of the floodlights, you can only get them in the Netherlands you know and they are on back order, get Scottish Power to urgently dig up the mains electric cable to the stadium or have the water bowser taps accidentally stick open and flood the place. We'll need to do it early though as Damo will be there with Dicksons reserves ready to Twitter everything within an inch of its life!

No mention of any sanctions against Dugard or Eastbourne's failure to control their track staff. During this time we have Leicester B home and away this weekend with Leicester away on the Saturday. Guest choices will need to be wise. Perhaps Chazzer Wright could do us a turn for Friday and Sunday. A small track specialist definitely required for Saturday. I was going to say Danny King but there's no way Damo would allow that. Remains to be seen if the Glasgow riders appeal, at which point they should still be able to ride until the appeal is heard.

Only if Buster is buying, which isnt unlikely after recent times!

Were you at the meeting or double standards? #justasking

Coupled with the signing of MBA its definitely a risk. Last week r/r for Starkey got just 4 points. If he can score that initially it will be good. If he looks a prospect and we can get enough matches to secure his UK registration, all the better. Lets see what Friday brings, Berwick usually start off well before tailing off in the last 3/4 heats. Garcia at reserve is key to their success.

Looking at that video its the fastest Kennett has been all season. Who is the ned in the white trainers that squares up to Cook at the start then minus jumper comes back for more a minute later? Mechanic, track staff, first aider, official photographer, announcer, sponsor or general hanger on? More questions than answers here though gives context to the pathetic attempt by Dugard to only release the first 15 seconds.

Complete lack of professionalism from someone who allegedly is Chairman. If the incident is under investigation all footage should be embargoed and with the investigating authority until the matter comes to an official conclusion. As for releasing an edited video of part of events, just pathetic. Perhaps in retirement he misses the attention.

Thats the question! We need it IMO.

Wish i had taken a photo now

Asking the wrong person.

Absolutely entertainment. Since Dickson left the knee deep tracks have stopped along with hitting 60's and even 70 on one occasion against Scunny where it was a total borefest. The last month has been superb speedway, with the visitors all achieving 40 points, like when Ashfield first opened. However the downside is results like last night where teams heavily set up their track to suit the home boys mean we wont beat many teams on aggregate. Food for thought for the playoffs.

And re-appeared pretty quickly. You cant push new material into a crater then expect it to pack in like the rest of the track. Expected better.
-
I was there that night and the third bend had a huge hole in it as well as bumps on bends 1/2, not what you'd expect from an alleged top level speedway venue. Lambert put it on Twitter before the meeting had even started.

Leicester v Leicester B. A good runout for the underlings should the main team suffer any more injuries. Damo won't have ordered anything other than a resounding home win.

Whitewash

Only the third occasion this season we havent hit 40 points on the road. Sounds like we were beaten before we took the bikes out of the vans, or at least one rider was. He has form for this and over recent weeks the disastrous SoN, a couple of uncharacteristic falls and not winning the British Final have IMO seen his mood go down and we are seeing the legacy of that, very unfortunately. The culture within GLA now is the best racing possible on a smooth track, and the best spectator experience. This is the exception and by all accounts tonight Eastbourne set their track up for home advantage. That is still for us to be professional, rise above it, adapt to the conditions, get stuck in and show we can ride any track. Despite being unhappy with the track before the meeting it seems at no point did we request a track inspection. If it was that bad we would have. This tie was lost in the home meeting a few weeks ago. Tonight it seems we have dented our own hard won reputation. More repercussions are likely to follow.

MBA looks a decent gater but not savvy enough to hold onto it. Hopefully just first night nerves. He wont be there for long if this is the same every week.

Berwick Bandits v Redcar Bears (Saturday 3rd - 7pm)
MD replied to crescent girl's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Can someone post a link -
Should also add fantastic crowd again tonight.
-
Eight last places and an FX for Cook compared to Redcar's six. Tough start for MBA which needs to improve.

On an average of 6.44 it wont be easy. Palovaara would fit but he really would need to be much more aggressive, he tends to win if he gates but settles too easily after bend 2 otherwise. Starkey is the engine room and will switch inside and out trying to chase an opponent for a point. Whats not in doubt is that r/r cant continue.
