  1. The Aces without any of their top 3 are toast... I am only peed off that Bet 365 got wind of Lidseys absence before I could put my bet on Ipswich...😁
  2. Next week, both Captains turn round and face the sponsors board, and Scott gives them numbers .. Then the home Captain guesses which number Scott gave him... If he is correct then he chooses the gates, if he doesn't then the Away Captain chooses ..
  3. Kelvins knowledge isn't the best though to be fair.....😁
  4. Was always going to be the case with the bottom four of the team that got selected., And when they lose one of the top three, it leaves them hopelessly exposed...
  5. Score reducing by the heat....😁... By Wednesday the Aces could be in front...😁
  6. Just you wait... Kamien, Papier, Nozyce will be the way forward in Poland from this weekend...😁
  7. Gutted.... It it stays like this, the Aces play off hopes could be under severe threat....😁
  8. Mickey Mouse Bollox.... But beautifully apt for the clowns...
  9. I think a Championship rider who isn't even top 10 in that league,might be a tad below the level of a Polish Top Tier Health Leader ...😁
  10. I think you will be right .. Once again though, nothing has been done to promote this TV meetings locally... Gorzow the other week for one of their matches dropped prices and gave each Season Ticket holder a free ticket to give away to someone... Let's be honest, it's not like there isn't a clear pattern at the NSS for TV matches and poor crowds for the PO Qualifiers is there? You would think with the kids off school more would have been done to attract some of the many tens of thousands of them (and obviously therefore their parents or guardians), who haven't gone away this week.. The last few years Eurosport has been "free" if you already had the Sky package, but this year you now need a separate TNT package to watch the Speedway, so maybe many having paid this monthly subscription feel as if they need VFM by using it.? Especially if the weather could look a bit dodgy, and, obviously now a HL is missing...
  11. Shows how unfit for purpose the RR facility is... And why we end up with so many guests... Whoever is above and below Lydsey in the averages should be allowed to take two rides each (if Mike decided the was what he wanted to do)... Max seven rides each per any rider..... You will now have reserves taking rides... (Even if a TAC SUB takes one of them!!!)
  12. Finding 12 Mondays or Thursdays between early April to September cannot be easy can it?
  13. A fit for purpose RR would negate guests... Keep it simple... The rider missing can be replaced by the riders above and below twice (if the manager wishes), with a max seven rides each in the meeting... No1 missing? Then any riders can take his place to a max of two of his four rides.. No7 missing? Then a No8 (unattached), comes in and takes two of his rides with the No6 doing the other two... Whatever rider is missing then that is the RR spot... Other riders may get injured in a meeting but that is sport so by all means have an IRR plan to accommodate it... Which includes any rider pulling out missing the next match as a matter of course so as to dissuade any dodgy practice... Ipswich's Tom Brennan making a massive contribution to Leicester winning the KO Cup is nonsense really isn't it? And so many guestfests take place needlessly due to the RR system being so flawed, and are often due to one or other of the teams seeing an opportunity for a few ringers being brought in.. Simply. In 2025 this sport will never be taken seriously by the wider media and public with such a system in place..
  14. Has the Wild Card been published? If its Dudek then he could be a spoiler for both...
  15. Sounds like Leicester's lux ran out... I'll get me coat....
  16. Ahh... Now you've said it the third time I completely agree...
  17. Give your head a wobble.... Without Kurtz this season would have been a write off already.... Possibly the GOAT has so far only managed three points more.... No one wins a world title without being a special talent... And that includes the likes of Szczakiel, Muller and Havelock, amongst others, who won one offs...
  18. I presume the Captains no longer have to sign the pre match declaration that all riders are paid up to date?
