There will be a 3000 crowd at the next home meeting if everyone on here who stopped going turns up...

Hear 14 is Charles Wrights pension fund race...... Beware putting a TS out against him in that race... I remember when the Aces had the Worrall twins taking turns at No4 and it was a nightmare when scores were close as Ht 14 invariably ended as a losing race for the Aces. Charles takes no prisoners at that stage of the meeting....

Plenty of the Stars ride the NSS well so always thought it would be a decent meeting and so it proved.. Obviously mainly there to watch Laguta but several of the Stars (Klindt and MPT in particular), were definitely good value... Two wins for Artem and he is what he is, truly world class. When in front, these riders rarely get passed... Just great to watch top talent over here again.. Racing was "decent" rather than "great" but overall, given the weather, once again, a good evening out at the NSS... Jakobsen a pale shadow of the Polish version... You would think that the NSS would be tailor made for him.. Rob Lyon did a solid job as Manager of the King's Lynn Panthers...

They have the sport they want... A cozy closed shop which is nothing more than a play thing/hobby for them.. The fans who still take it seriously go along with them, colluding that what is being served up has some relevance and kudos.. It has neither... The play offs get "bumper crowds" because many who dont attend regularly (solely down to how the sport is ran), turn up for "one night only" knowing that they will be part of a decent crowd and feel like they are at an "event".. In short.. It will actually feel like a proper team sport for an evening, (just an evening)... For many, here is the script... Attend Play offs, season ends, attend first meeting the following season as "starved of Speedway", stop going, pick and choose meetings when star names are in your town, attend play offs... Rinse and Repeat... The promoters, as they show by this evening, dont take it seriously themselves, so why should the fans? Apologies if this sounds like moaning... I will put up some air fences in the future.. Not cleaning out any bogs though... I will bring a "guest" in for that.. Or apply for a BCR (Bog Cleaner Replacement) facility... Edit: You can see tonight how seriously the Promoters and Riders take it.. When a Manager can swap sides with his own team somewhere else, and a rider be happy to take a booking riding for a team that isn't his own, when his own team has a match, it tells you everything about why it can never be taken seriously from a "team sport" concept. .. As even those who belong to teams have zero emotional attachment to them, hence represent someone else without a moments hesitation. .. In a "proper team sport", (that meant something), neither would have have taken either role as their loyalty would be solely to their own team and no one else... And let's face it, in a "proper team sport", they wouldn't be asked. .. (Imagine the reaction if they did this in Poland?)...

He gets first dabs on the most camera time...

Youz in eat wun Laggy bro, innit....

Sadly it isnt... And that is the real fundamental problem...

Seem to remember Shawn Moran doing the same in a Speedway Star knockout cup final.... A winners and a losers medal.... Mickey Mouse also donated his BSPA watch...

Phil Morris will sort it.... He has that Red, Blue, White and Yellow strip now for the bikes to line up in the pits on during the TV matches... Properly prioritising the key issues...

The only person he hasnt guested for...

Tens of thousands, who still follow the sport closely, have asked that very question over the years... Only problem was, the "guests" never turned up...

Even more reason then to not be there...

A Peterborough Manager "guests" for King's Lynn, whilst his team ride at Wolves.. Whilst a Witches rider, who cannot ride for Ihis own team, "guests" for Peterborough, the team whose Manager is "guesting" for King's Lynn.. An official statement has been put out though I believe... It simply says... "Please, please, please come and watch this nonsense we continually serve up to you".... "Oh. And we almost forgot".. "Bring a friend as well".......

I am sure if he isnt then we will be told well in advance of paying our money to watch... About 7:59 my bet......

I wonder why the sport doesnt have any major sponsors?

Presume it must be to deliver the Polish quota per team?.. The barrel is being certainly scraped if so..

Grrrrrr.... Getting passed up the inside.... At least make the better riders work to pass you... And why have Leszno signed Miedzinski...? Is there really no one better..?

There was a very good reason the vast majority had Brum bottom of the league in the predictions... And it wasnt the manager . The only way tactically he could make a difference is if Brum were the only team allowed to ride for double points using a black and white helmet colour.. In every heat.... A classic example, like Newcastle and Eastbourne, of a club with an NDL crowd level masquerading as a CL team.. Is it promoter ego that does such things? You are where you are in the pecking order, because of what level you actually are at... Zero point in being something you are not..

"We want Premiership Heat Leaders doubling down"... "Not second strings like used to happen"...

What do you think Ian?

Hope the BV crowd doesnt impact the Citeh parade numbers....

I heard that his ankle actually "fell off" and that the Polish doctors (who seem much, much, much better than ours), were able to sew it on again for him... With no lasting issues.. "As goodski as newski Brady", was what he was told.. As Turkey seems to be the place to get your teeth "done" nowadays, Poland is obviously the place to get injuries fixed in record time which defy all previous medical history and knowledge..

Need the two Russian lads in this to make it interesting.... Artem and Emil would give Bartek a challenge. .. Nobody else in this field will...

Come on Kim!

It's already been decided... Scunny and Redcar.....
