I was chatting with a once die hard supporter yesterday.He now visits occasionally and was stunned that it cost him £75 to get in to lynn with his 2 teenage kids to watch the tractors do more laps than the bikes.Say no more. Its just not value for money. Add in a drink each and a program and you've got bugger all change left from £100.

I don't think its for solely British riders either, more for incidents that occur racing in Britain

Its such a shame.last weeks meeting was a cracker, it looked like the whole team wanted it,so i was kind of hoping for the same again last night.Sadly not.Mixed feelings about seeing PuK romp home in heat 15.Right result, wrong race suit

I must have watched a different meeting .I found it dull, predominantly gate and go and drawn out. From completing 4 heats before 8 o clock to only get to heat 7 by 8.45 was dreadful

Just as well the foxes management released jeppesen and not bachelor!

This could be fantastic news for british speedway so long as the small minded bspl dont bring in new rules to scupper it such as " no young riders from Poland allowed to race in the uk" or something equally ridiculous. Rather than other clubs panicking about their top riders being sent elsewhere, maybe part of the plan is to send young poles over to gain experience on varying tracks, and in return give more young brits better opportunities abroad as well.With the new rules set to come in next season in poland regarding the number of other clubs their squad members can ride for, surely this must favour British clubs? Well, Ipswich so far but this could just be what British speedway needs

Its been well documented that he is permanently in pain as well, that and quite possibly some strong pain meds won't help

Can't honestly say that a moaning old git will be missed much anyway. To quote the late David Ashby , " its nice to be important but its important to be nice " .It sounds like you are neither

Maybe if the baby offset engines weren't so bloody fickle and everyone rode an engine that was more flexible, for want of a better term, less meetings would be called off as the bikes would be able to cope in conditions that varied a bit

If something like this was to be introduced then it would also need a ruling at championship level where every championship team MUST have rising stars at reserve to give british youngsters a chance.They have to start somewhere.

Spoilt, disrespectful, bad losers. .....

Apparently the king's lynn foam fence was being transported over for today

Too right.Im glad you said two young lads, all the attention seems to be on Cooper, but Jody Scott is just quietly going about his job and was equally as impressive last night.

I would be very surprised if anybody has ridden the track as yet ,si.ply because the steel posts aren't covered , I would imagine they will need a similar arrangement as mildenhall ,with a foam hat over them before anyone is allowed to ride the track

Paco has said lynn is not his favourite track and that is one of the reasons he signed on, he feels he can become a better rider by doing that. That obviously benefits lynn and him. He may not be a Nicki Pedersen in the making but he also said coming to lynn to master the track made him a better rider, in fact it helped make him world champion
