Looks like the rain could be clearing the Rye area between 11/30am and12/30 pm approx depending on the state of the track at that time,,with work the track could be race able by 2 pm ....

No home advantage ,,half a team. .This is one time rain could really do us favour

Another serious blow to Lakeside no Nick Morris away in Poland.. Summers guests

Good move seeing Harris has been a Rye House rider for half the season..

Never in Speedway history have so many been screwed by so few.....sounds like something ive heard before ,,,,,oh yes after the war......

You call the piles of mud on the centre green improvements ??? lol .....More like a mess spoiling the view of the racing if your standing at ground level

Can things get any worse for the..Hammers. ..What happens next if they can't run on Sunday....

With all these meetings against Peterborough.it is even more important for the Hammers to win at ........home?????????... on sunday for the fans to retain any interest., for the rest of the season....my opinion only.....

Apparently Peterborough are supposed to have.. turned down 3 different dates to race at lakeside ..how true that is i do not know.but there has been a fair bit said about it in this neck of the woods ,,and not favourably '' Some of that could arguably be blamed on Scunny....

Looking at the above posts its obvious that multiple meetings with Peterborough are not going to be popular with the fans and you can not blame them it is a ludricous situation befitting the idiots running the sport these days......

Hopefully Adam and Ben are going to be recovered fully for Sunday as the team will need to be firing on all cylinders ..At the moment the weather forecast does not sound great ..Ben at least has had a couple of outings since and has performed well enough at the lower level...If Zack is out the guest could be vital? ,,and I do not think R/R really works for Kyle Newman ?

There may be a flat track meeting on the Saturday

If it turns out that Lakeside.could have run at Lakeside till the end of the season ,as has been suggested .then Cookie has a lot to answer for..... Peterborough would not beat us around there

Fans will not want to be continually watching matches against Peterborough,,I suspect the attendances to dwindle....this whole end of season situation is ridiculous the idiots are running the ruination of a once great sport

Getting a run off the second bend was vital and in general some of the Hammers gating was not as good as at Lakeside, this has to improve if we wish to beat Peterborough next sunday ...I was surprised at the apparent lack of effort against Peterborough ,,,Nick Morris aside ,,,after we had qualified for the play offs after the first match which was excitingly close all the way ,,,Change the starting gate surface to mirror Lakeside may help and with the inside line improved could ring the changes on sunday....

I can understand fans,,being very annoyed at our very professional promoters for the way they screw every last penny they can get out of them.. And then expect the offended fans to continue to support them...???????????????ugh

City Rebel your showing your age with White City,,.i remember seeing Hans Nielsen riding there a long time ago...that one did not go past midnight ,,thank God............And Marko. you could well be right about 10 heats in match two........

Could this be the first meeting to go on past midnight,,not impossible with the minimal medical care tracks can afford these days,,It will be tough for the Hammers with probably two team members missing ,and two meetings to get through,,We have to hope that they are both good safe matches tonight,,

Cris Gay was the official ref last night and is notorious for holding the tapes to long he ruins every meeting he runs,,,,the riders hate him ,,and its about time he was removed from the lists..but unfortunately the powers that be who are killing speedway in this country will do nothing about this or anything else that sees fans disappearing at an alarming rate.....

Some good racing tonight most of the riders really going for it Craig Cook the fastest rider I have seen there this year ,,Alfie Bowtell looking the smoothest I have seen him,has found a line that suits him, Two excellent rides from Ben Morley who looks really quick when he rides the wide line .the top 3 were their usual consistent selves..Hope Zack is ok after his nasty looking crash,,but looks unlikely for Rye House Saturday ..Victory was a must tonight and. The lads achieved that ,,,Tommorrow may be a different story with no home track advantage probably no Zack and two matches to get through....Massive crowd in tonight for the last ever meeting at Lakeside,so sad to see yet another track lost to developers.,..

Stock cars are not good bed fellows with speedway tracks

Abandoned meetings are becoming a regular occurrence and however much you feel for injured riders ,and their care is of the utmost importance ..the fact is promotions can not afford the medical cover needed to continue meetings on too many occasions,.Just another reason the sport is struggling,,with many other problems ie continuity of meetings ,,poor race conditions ,,.unfortunatly our sport continues on its downward spiral

When you know their capability,,this Lakeside performance is awfull,,Feel sorry for any. Lakeside fans who have had a wasted trip..

Lakeside have not looked the same outfit when riders have been missing will be surprised if RR produces more points than could have been expected from Newman,,,,,However our top 3 can be awesome if they hit form together if that happens they could shade this one,,,,

Good win by the IOW ..Morley and Bowtell very strong and Verge one of his best performances of the season,,Well done Warriors
