I guessed you'd be good at playing with yourself

Still watching then ? Thought you where bored

Well done Leon , good luck in the final

Having The SGP , WC & The P/L 4s all within a few weeks is ridiculous , this is something that needs to be addressed at the AGM at the end of the season .

The only way to get more meetings is to increase the amount of teams in the top league , how you go about that , I'll leave to the experts because I can't see many teams in the PL looking to move up .

Yeah and then they wonder why crowds are down and people don't take speedway seriously

56-37 , can't see The Diamonds being troubled here

When both teams are using R/R why not bring in a NL rider at reserve and promote the higher reserve into the team ? Looking good ATM , a few tricky ( an a couple of matches that are definitely winnable ) away matches on the horizon though

One thing we learned tonight is R/ R is not the answer in the longer term

Need to find the volunteers , that's the problem , plenty moan about why covers weren't used , but not many are prepared to help put them down or remove them

Dave Blackburn used to do it all the time at Berrington Lough

Sounds like he's bought a copy of The Chris Neath big book of excuses

A point would be good

I wonder what would of happened if Freddie had won a couple of GPs ,and was in contention for the title ?

Please tell me how you know that Berwick didn't do a fine job promoting Monday nights meeting ? They had posters up across the region , adds on local radio , free entry for kids , added attractions on the night , remember England where playing on Monday evening and you could hardly call Workington a local team could you ? . Shielfied is a big stadium even with 1000 people in it would still look empty

Both Paul Fry and Scud Smith went through/over the 2nd bed fence in a very scary incident I'm sure some one with a programme from a couple of seasons back will be able to confirm the rider involved

Yup it's almost as bad as the Comets performance

As I mentioned in an earlier post there's quite a few twitchy riders out there

Now that we're in a post Brexit era , could the lower league go back to the way it was with a restriction on overseas riders ?

Nothing new with empty spaces on the terraces for a TV match , the crowd at Norfolk Arena was pretty sparce last week and its not the first time is it ?

I'm quite happy to do an eighty mile round trip ordinarily , but on a work night when it's live on tv it's too much hassle

Because in my case live matches are on a Monday / Wednesday night and I have an 80 mile round trip and would have to go direct to the Speedway from work . If it was live on a Friday or Sat night the I'd be there . I guess live matches on a school night aren't great for those with kids either especially when there's no reduction on the gate prices to give folks an incentive to go

Why would Glasgow want to be in a league with no Edinburgh in it , they'd be cutting their own throats finically surely ? It would also require a change of race night as well . A home match on a weeknight vs the likes of Leicester or Swindon isn't going to bring in as big a crowd as a Sunday afternoon v Berwick , Newcastle or Workington is it ?

Maybe you should drop that in the suggestion box , it's something they could use for the next time sky come calling or for the less popular meetings collect 4 vouchers from the programme/ turnstiles and get 50% off entry to a specified meeting
