Jonny the spud makes good points,,If you do not agree with some one of Adams class riding in this league ,you can only blame the rules that allow it,not the rider or the club that have every right to take advantage ..

What ever the result ,there are some of the best riders in this league battling tonight,,I also expect we will also see the difference in the level of the rookies on show ,,Should be interesting.....Wrap up warm it will be cold ,the north wind blows straight in to the stands here...

A good compromise would maybe an hour or two earlier..but then again what ever time they start it will not suit everyone...

There are novices and there are novices,at the moment ,Raiders are a bit behind some of the others.we have to hope there will be improvements sooner rather than later ,other wise it will be along hard season..

The main problem for me is when a guest is a stronger rider than the one he is replacing ie Bowen allowed in to this league on a ridiculously low average .He will be getting guest booking s everywhere until he obtains his real average,, At least Adam Ellis who will also be to good for this league has come in on his true average from last year ,even though he is an even better rider now,,The gap between the top riders and the novices is now huge in this league

They can not guest under our rules but there is not enough that can ,so we are going to let them all guest any way,,got it ?........no

No I think the rules are going crazy, !

Bowen will be much stronger than wachnecht,how the hell did he get into this league on such a low average,,should be at least a ten ,,,If that is right sing4kings Banks for Woods ..it will not improve the teams obvious weaknesses..Oh we'll another Tonkin...

Just noticed that Sam Woods is listed as an outgoing rider on the green sheets ???,, does that mean George Hunter is back earlier than anticipated,,or am i misreading the situation ?,,,would still leave us with R/R,,, Anyone know whats happening ???

Cant believe Grondal,s performances elsewhere,,he looked heat leader standard round Rye House ?

Rob Branford makes his seasonal debute at no 1 with Ben Morley at 5 Luke Priest at 3 and that basically is the team that faces the might of a very strong Birmingham side..We all know you can not win with only 3 riders scoring the bulk of the points,, but we know they will give it all they,ve got..Hopefully the rest of the side will make improvements as each meeting goes bye,, Woods should be doing better by now and needs to get it together ,,R/R is doing us no favours either,, Hopefully when we are at full strength later in the season we can win a few matches, but do not expect to much at this stage of the season from the two very inexperienced riders who may or may not make the grade only time will tell

Out sounds good to me bring it on..

Buxton...

Good to see Ben Hopwood fixed up,decent rider at this level,,should do well at Buxton..

Spot on GWC. Tatum was one of the best gaters in the world and had a unique way of doing it as well ..

Unfortunately Shads ,Lykke has slow reactions at the gate how he improves that is any ones guess,shame really because the lads a racer..

This is a speedway forum the twit for tat abuse of some people on here is getting boring to the most of us..give it a rest...

Shads i was more refering to the fact that had we had choice of gates in heat 15 the result of that race may have been different... I have always been of the opinion that choice of gates in heat 15 is far more important than race one ..I know Kennet likes gate 4 in the first race ,but the chances are that the opposition would pick one and three anyway,, they do most places...I agree about Grondal when he goes up to the top 5 they will not be as strong, ,met them to early in the season i think?

Rye was under water in the morning but they worked like trojans on it and come the evening it produced some brilliant racing poses the question why could not Easty have done the same ....

Some very good racing last night,,excitement up to the last heat where in my opinion had Kennet picked heat 15 instead of 2and 4 in the first race the result may have been different

Well done Rockets solid team performance...Kennet looking almost unbeatable so far,,,,This team must be surprising a few people on here. .Karger being given more rides than his form deserves obviously to try and get him going...At.the moment seems to have more speed than control hope that comes sooner than later.

Hope all the lads make it to the track on time as this is a notorious venue to get to especially on a friday... Why fridays Plymouth ??,, no thought for those who have to get to this speedway outpost through horrendous traffic problems every week ....Having got that off my chest i do wish the new promotion every success ,,hope for a good meeting tonight and that all the riders stay safe....Oh and of course a Rye victory...

Obviously the real champ is Robert Lambert...One race only counts at the end format,, robs the best rider of the title again The old world final format is the only way to get a fair result in individual competitions.. The B.S.P,A never get any thing right hence the slow death of Speedway in this country....

From the updates it sounds as if there were some battle royals with the 3 heat leaders of Cradley, and Ben Morley ,and by all accounts a very good meeting ,, Luke Priest and Ben Hopwood doing all that could be asked of them,,We all know at Rye that we do not have a complete team that can win matches at present,,but changes are on the horizon which could well improve the situation..My worry is that the Rye fans may not turn out in numbers till things improve..Happy to know we put on a good show at Cradley....

Cradley should have little trouble winning this one,,Hope Morley ..Priest and Hopwood can keep the score respectable
