  1. Sounds like he's bought a copy of The Chris Neath big book of excuses
  2. I wonder what would of happened if Freddie had won a couple of GPs ,and was in contention for the title ?
  3. 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
  4. http://www.berwick-advertiser.co.uk/news/fans-hurt-in-horror-speedway-crash-1-229472
  5. 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
  6. As I mentioned in an earlier post there's quite a few twitchy riders out there
  7. 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 ?
  8. 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 ?
  9. 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
  10. 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
  11. 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 ?
  12. 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
  13. The biggest crowd I've seen at a Lakeside meeting live on Sky was when it was free entry
  14. I thought that EL clubs had to have an asset base of a certain value to cover loses if they went went bust , not sure about numbers though Asset system has been pointless for years anyway Where's the 4 extra clubs coming from ? there's a few clubs in the EL who's futures look uncertain at the moment cant see any PL clubs looking to take the plunge
  15. Personally I don't think that same rider should have been used to replace Hampel at all the Gps he's missed , an extra wild card at each GP should've been handed out if it was only going to be a temporary absence , if he's out for the longer term then give Freddie the race jacket permanttly its not fair on him to have to give up his place mid season and it means his points count for nowt , its also not fair on the other riders in the competition ,points scored by Freddie against them might cost them them the title . As for next year cant really see how they can justify giving Jarek a wild card unless he proves himself during the second half of the season that's if he does come back
  16. Due to work commitments , I will be enjoy this from the comfort of my living room , there will be no Dick Barrie but I will have Nigel and Kevin to make up for it Going by his last two visits David Bellago is an excellent choice of guest lets hope he can put in another repeat performance . It will be interesting to see how many times the ref pulls the riders back for " unsatisfactory stars " there's quite a few twitchy riders on display here hopefully TJ wont be as bad as he was during the Panthers match last season . Keen to see if Dan The Man can continue where he started his first night performance was very encouraging . All in All I expect a Bandits win , there's been a few decent matches this season already on Sky lets hope we can maintain the standard . 52-41
  17. Don't understand why clubs don't do a reduction on the admission price when they're on TV , surely it makes sense
  18. After his performance on Saturday night I hope Daviid Bellago is available next Monday night . Personally I'd wait until after that meeting before brining in a new rider to the line up
