Bishop making a comeback then.

Auty has been riding speedway since he was 13, I would suggest the rest weren't. Auty is still better that most of the draft riders and like Roynon is just above the cut off line. Put Auty in and someone else will complain who is marginally better than Auty.

Pity that the usual critics above don't pay more attention to what you post. Mean changing the habits of a lifetime mind.

I remember when Dave Pavitt asked for the IOW to be omitted from the PT early comp, as it started in April and he wanted to start with the PL competition when he had a crowd in. Told it was everything or nothing.

There was also the case of Joe Screen from Wolverhampton to Glasgow as well. Different team from Berwick this year, but I think they will do well and give a really stable year of good racing. Hope they get the support for the new look team.

To be fair these tours are not officially sanctioned in the same way as the previous official representative teams. I believe it is a private venture which Marcus took onboard and who, with friends, has made such a great success. Of late, the BSPA has started to part sponsor it, so there is an input and a very welcome input. All power to Marcus and Co and lets hope for another successful tour next year.

I think you will find, or even already know, that Frost and Julie has/had already made acquisitions to go off in a different direction to speedway in 2014 already before the AGM.

Unfortunately populated with some with an anti speedway agenda. Give it up.

Why am I not surprised at this from such a dedicated fan.

That might have been an indicator of his average, but having never ridden this year for the Rebels, and having ridden the Danish leagues since then in 2013 , it could be he has rubbished his chances by doing so. Garry may have got a 3 initially, but the change in circumstances now makes things different and probably the 7 is right now.

That sounds so very rude.

We tried to introduce him when I think it was Stuey got injured. George managed to get a small reduction but not enough to fit him in. Apparently wanted to be our No 1 this year. but I think he told all his clubs that.

Yep.

I think this has correctly been in force for sometime. I think it's to stop a 'pointed' first post from someone who may have a grudge and it needs vetting in case it is. There have been some interesting first posts from existing forum members using another name, so it is right that the moderation should cover that situation. Some naughty posters have had to be cleared post by post for being 'naughty'.

NEWCASTLE SPEEDWAY Xmas party, PTE club on Saturday 21st Dec, 2013. Usually starts about 7.30pm and price last year was £8 a head. To get the food quantities right, can you advise Joan E with your ticket requirements. A disco and a bit of chat with your fellow supporters, what a way to start your Xmas weekend. If you want you, you can let me know and I can pass them on for you. Tickets are usually short on supply for the party that is usually a sell out. Kids welcome of course, and fancy dress if that floats ya boat. See ya there.

Easy, it's rolling averages so some of his early decent scores will be getting replaced by similar but higher scores, but any variance up or down, will be slanted over 24 meetings(I think it is now). Anton's will improve after his learning process last year and, if he continues in the way he finished the season, his scores will be greater that last years average and then take over the number 1 position.

Says the boring man who craves for 'genuine debate'. Walk on.

Let's hope you keep your word on it, you're getting boring. Name one track that is going to be closed because of the purchase of an air fence. IOW and Peterborough are not. On a 120 gate IOW could not survive even without buying the fence.

Agree on both counts screm. Carr is just starting to look good and getting deserved points. To not include him, and let someone else have him, does not and would not seem right to most folks. Kus is the new enigma. The events in Argie when his friend was killed, seems to be still with him, and only time will erase that from his memory. He is the original 0303 points scorer, a brilliant gater but does not try if behind. Pity he does not perform like he does when he is at the Redcar training days that I attend. He is flat-out and throwing the bike in the first bend from just after the start gate. He is s different rider, and it is a great shame he isn't repeating that type of riding during meetings. The shape of Berwick is not dissimilar to Prague, where he flew round as a wildcard in a Prague GP, so with a bit more confidence he could come good and surprise everyone. It's in there, but how you get it out is a mystery. It was obvious he was leaving Redcar, as in their last PO meeting against us, he walked dejected around the track, shaking hands and taking with everyone, and even throwing some racing gear into the crowd as if he was saying his goodbyes. I said it on the night. All the best Matej.

Surely as time goes on, the stadium will be sold, or lose the P & P to run speedway through protests as the last house owners get united against it. One would think that the promotion needs to be very active, and have an alternative in this year, in case it is forced on them for next year.

One would have thought that if the decision to proceed with the deal is quite a fresh one, little consideration would have been given to the need for a highlights show, with the possibility of not even covering it next year. It would have been an anathema to build the sport up during a highlights show, but to end the proggie with "but we are covering next year folks."

I would keep it with Anton in at 5. He needs to look after himself from the off, rather than comforting the reserve in their 3 races together. This 'thinking for himself' start to the year will do him well for when he goes to the number 1 position in the second month, replacing Ludde. Anton's average can rise significantly as all his scores will count, but Ludde's will be with dropping off some decent scores, and being replaced by decent scores so his improvement will be graded longer.

We need folks, but we don't need enemy's from within, who seem to now have a death wish on a sport that he was employed in to good effect for most of his life. If his love affair with Speedway, and later Stocks, has now ceased, he should just go quietly and pick up on something else. Like a bad apple it/he does effect the rest of us, who are dedicated to the sport and would help in any way for it to continue.

Thing is but, if you haven't got it or don't want to subscribe, you don't. That's your choice, and you are not demanded to do so. If promotions didn't tell you of the consequences, and then closed, you might feel inclined to have been advised, that's all. After the losses of the last two years with the weather, you could think we were lucky to still have speedway, so asking for a bit help doesn't seem unreasonable. Especially when you not compelled to help. Given the current trading situation, and receiving a reduced amount from SKY, and most clubs already having make the effort and bought their fence either now or in the past, why should any money go to the IOW, especially when it as a business that does not seem very viable. If the IOW got it, what about putting the rest of money into keeping Peterborough Speedway going for another team and keeping the venue open for the FIM type meetings in this country. Where does it stop.

But it didn't work for forums I see. Just joking.
