What does Tai Woffinden mean?
szkocjasid replied to Hamish McRaker's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Maybe he means not having to go to Poole, where they prepare the track for the home team lol! -
Edinburgh Vs Poole 4th August
szkocjasid replied to LisaColette's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Gotta agree, r/r for Kye (so Josh gets an extra ride) seems the obvious choice. Possible guests for Paco: Gilkes, Bowtell or Dan T? -
Redcar v Glasgow CL 4/8/23 @19-30
szkocjasid replied to Paulco's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
I have to agree with @Beirao that Basso should be at 5. Looks a weak pairing when Brennan rides with the reserves imo. If Brennan & Vissing don't ride well together, why not try Vissing at 2 and Nowak at 4? -
Makes a lot of sense

Yet he still gets non stop grief by many on the Ipswich page!

Had to be lower than Jonas as he had already guested for him

Leicester vs Sheffield 3/8/23
szkocjasid replied to Lenny Lion's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Both teams are 99.99% in the play-offs regardless of the result anyway -
Leicester vs Sheffield 3/8/23
szkocjasid replied to Lenny Lion's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Just to be really pedantic, should Woffy get a 28 day ban for "witholding his services" Of course not, because he hadn't agreed to ride in this match (presumably the contract he signed starts from Monday). So my question is, why would Sheffield want to sign Woffy before Thursday & why would the BSPL allow the signing knowing he wasn't available, are neither worried about the "integrity" of the Sport? If we act like these are two separate promotions, it's out of order for Sheffield to turn up at Leicester without a full team (when it's totally avoidable) as it could harm their crowd, I almost feel like Sheffield should get a guest at the away match, but use the 75% guest at their next home match, so it only hinders their crowd? -

Very odd that Sheffield would drop Jack before Tai was available. After all Edinburgh announced Clegg but (before postponements) were going to use guests for Fredriksen for 2 away meetings. -
Shame they were "bullied" into not being allowed to host Nora meetings, could that have lost them money, if the stadium is rented out who earns? Who gets gate receipts?
-
Former world class, but very experienced. Hopefully can hit a 7.0 ave in the Champ?
-
Thank goodness they've extended the cut-off date, how on earth can teams be expected to complete EIGHT home league fixtures by the end of August!
-
I disagree with that, his scores once he went to reserve at Leicester weren't so bad. Plus he nearly got a 12.00 average for Kent. Obviously his scoring for Scunthorpe this year was dreadful, but as long as he can ride Armadale (which he can) & help them to home wins, they'll make the top 6. Away form isn't really important until the play-offs, when Lasse should be back.
-
In theory weaker than racing with Holder, but Tigers can't use Holder. So stronger than r/r & more reliable than guests. Good signing
-
I've seen a few people mention this, but I don't think that's the rule, otherwise Brennan wouldn't have been left for Belle Vue in his second season. Personally think it's a bit early for him to be a RS & assuming there's 3 league double up in Champ & NL. Maybe at Workington (if they step up) seems to like the track!

POOLE V EDINBURGH, WEDS 2ND AUGUST;
szkocjasid replied to SteveLyric2's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Comfortable win for Poole & the "bonus point" (can't see Edinburgh winning by much on Friday, if at all). -
To make the top 6 home wins are all that's suited, which is where Clegg could shine. Once they get there, they'd certainly need him to score better away, unless Fredricksen is back by then?
-
Looking at the August averages, Schlein drops to 5th so only Douglas & the reserves can then take r/r outings. Big blow for Wolves, although as long as he's back fit for the play-offs, that's all that matters.
-
Indeed Wolves will be hoping Schlein is back asap
-
Peterborough 48-42 Wolves
-
Leicester 46-44 Ipswich
-
100% agree, couldn't have put it any better

Survival of The Premiership?
szkocjasid replied to Najjer's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
That's due to their being 4 weak team in the Champ - one if them has to qualify. Before the Berwick vs Edinburgh fixture I thought Berwick were big favourites for the play-offs, despite only having won ONE match! After Edinburgh won, thought they were big favourites for 6th despite not having won a match at home at that time! For the Premiership it's been a very dull fight for the top 4. -
Kings Lynn Stars Vs Peterborough Panthers
szkocjasid replied to klstarsfan's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I have no interest in times beyond one decimal point, but if transponders can be used to decide dead heats / jumping the start then they have their use imo
