  1. Can't remember who, but it was one of those involved who said in the Speedway Star when the admission cost was mentioned that he thought it "cheap"... The rationale used being that if you went to watch a "top show" in Londons entertainment sector you would would be paying many times that amount..
  2. Been some great racing at Rybnik this year... Pity they don't have another heat leader to assist Lambert and Woryna.. And be able to ride the inside better....!!!
  3. Another cracker.. Match pretty much over but you would think a million quid was riding on it... Fans still going mad in appreciation of their riders too...
  4. Great race.. Kasper "ghosted" in there. .. I'll get me coat..
  5. Polish Comms tonight calling him "Vorina" during his races.. Hopefully that will do... And to be fair, Sam used that pronunciation most of the time last night..
  6. If I was a Rybnik fan I'd be pretty peed off by my riders getting passed on the inside so easily.. If they get passed round the outside then fair enough, but at least make the opposition work for it..
  7. Many of whom seem to spend lots of time, focus and money in putting one over their rivals to win competitions rendered pretty much worthless in terms of both kudos and great financial reward by the very actions that they take.... A very strange business plan indeed.. Maybe one day they will all truly work together and put the sport first. Whilst it's still there..
  8. Need more fans to make it viable I would think... Grandstand alone is circa 1800 and the whole crowd seldom gets too close to that.. They reduced the back straight stand due to not needing the size it was too.. Would certainly 'complete' the stadium though..
  9. Especially with two of the best riders in the world hopefully fit and well to ride... Bewley as U21 rider as a track specialist, and track record holder, isn't a bad third rider to have too.. (If they are stil doing the compulsory U21 rider?).. If not then Craig Cook is another who is excellent around the NSS.. Could be a very good couple of days.. (If on)...
  10. GB with two genuine World Class riders who you could make a real case for both being comfortably in the World's top ten..
  11. Looking at Nicki P in the last one, maybe Blue isn't the next best choice? Problem is if he doesn't then Madsen will and be under him..
  12. Great first turn.. Didn't hook it too early which could have been tempting, and moved Pedersen over...
  13. Nicki P. King of the block pass.. We will miss him when he decides to hang up the kevlars. ...
  14. Great ride by Warriner... I mean Vorriner.... I mean Voreeni... I mean Veroni.....
  15. They have... They are going to run the meetings by sharing riders... Riders will be allowed to ride in both of the top leagues for two different teams and even the NL if they qualify to do so depending on their average so these lads can have a third team.. They will also allow the sharing of riders on any given night between teams within the same division, so for example, Brady Kurtz could ride for BV on Monday and Sheffield on Thursday, likewise Nicki P could do the same but in reverse.. Obviously it could result in contrived septets, with riders riding under a 'flag of convenience' on a random ad hoc basis just to put a meeting on.. In fact, pretty much the operating model they have ran for donkey's years!!! Ahead of the curve British Speedway, ahead of the curve..
  16. Circa £200 a point is the covid 19 going rate for the heat leader level riders.. 50% less than normal. . Hence Josh G decided not to bother...
  17. Another excellent edition this week.. Well done to all in maintaining such a high standard..
