Just making sure all my Weeg friends could see it properly through the Buckie haze George:-)

I see this as a four way fight between Edinburgh, Rye House, Glasgow and Somerset. Think it will be a Glasgow Somerset final with, as much as it sticks in my throat, the Tiggers winning it. That is my head speaking by the way, my heart says otherwise Edited for Font size

Quite an interesting quote that, now it is confirmed, speedway is not a sport but is an Entertainment business. That is an Ex promoters view, its not a go at you Tsunami but it shows how promoters think of Speedway.

That will be a whoosh then

I think you are missing TaylorJs point, she is basically saying that if a rider is going to be out for any considerable length of time then that team, whoever it is, should be forced into signing someone else whether it weakens them or not., maybe its time to think about relaxing the rules for signing EL riders. I know there is a shortage of "top class" riders but this is bordering on silly now, look at Brady Kurtz, it doesn't matter who wins the league he will probably have ridden for them at some point and will get a medal anyway

He's just a very naughty boy!!!!!

Didn't know we had resigned Max just for the pairs, just shows the power of the dark lord Harkess

Welcome to being a good team Tiger fans, it is always the same with a winning side everybody scrutinises your every move and are always ready to have go at you. You are now getting what we have been getting for a few years, just ignore it and don't reply to them it only gives all the opinionated forum members a chance to say something. Seems you will now be scrutinised by "all the best Rob" all the time now and he will get his little digs in when he can, but just ignore him. Stick to banter with us and you will be fine

Well this has just made my last night in Benidorm a bit better, have to top up using the all inclusive to do that result justice

I was there the last time Glasgow beat us at home and then they went on to win the league, hope the weegie barstwerards don't do It again Ps I'm in Benidorm and don't give a flying duck at the moment, that will change though, ( god it hurts) honest opinion

my teams as I cant do it later USA Greg Hancock Ryan Fisher Poland Przemysław Pawlicki Maciej Janowski Russia Renat Gafurov Belousov GB Chris Harris Tai Woffinden Edited due ti Russia problems

Just looked at the schedules and Eurosport 2HD is apparently showing this live at 7.00 pm. Mind you knowing Eurosport they have probably not updated Sky with changes. By the same token I checked Quest on Monday and no mention of the speedway

For Sky viewers its channel 167

That's my picks edited from your original post, hope I am not too late to enter

Richard:-)

Now that we know the qualifiers, is there a draw taking place to see who rides against who, and when are they meant to be raced by ?

These riders are contracted to their PL clubs, if EL clubs want to use them then buy their contracts, its not rocket science. Should Edinburgh, who paid good money for Craig Cook when he was released by Worky, turn around and say "Oh Craig there is a fixture clash with the top league tonight, you better just give us a miss, don't worry about this clubs fans. Don't be so ridiculous. Buy your own assets and loan them out to the PL, there is your answer, but no you want everything, just because you are in the Elite League, Unbelievable Jeff . PS I Know the asset system isn't right and probably not legally enforceable but until such time as it is challenged, we are stuck with it.

Sam and Kevin having a good start,

Check the Edinburgh v Sheffield thread in the PL section

Wasn't at Edinburgh tonight but reading about Sam's behaviour you may not be seeing him for a while, there is no excuse for attacking another rider, this isn't ice hockey.

I thought Aussies couldn't double up / down ?

Ok I started following Team GB during the Olympics on twitter and since that time I have noticed any team that uses the hash tag team GB gets promoted on Twitter and Facebook, could this not be a benefit in making non supporters aware of the sport. That must be a benefit PS I voted NO before anybody starts

But remember without all these strange rules Rory couldn't make a living I seriously think that whoever wins this league, they should also include a winners medal for Rory edited to add I don't think the PL is any better in this respect before the usual suspects jump on me.

Wow well jel, that looks brilliant, well done to all concerned
