That is very sad news, lets hope that this is not a false promise.

Well Done Belle Vue, I cannot see us pulling this one out of the bag, we were for the big underdogs to win the play offs, so was not expecting us to win this Semi. But I thought we could have at least win the home leg. This result sums up our season inconsistent. If as I suspect Peterborough win the Semi I can see Belle Vue beating them over two legs in the Final. As for Jack Holder not shaking hand or acknowledging opponents after the race frankly I don't care, as long as he is racking up the points for the team and acknowledger's the crowd I am happy. And hopefully we can have Jack back in the team next season. Add Adam Ellis, Josh Pickering and Stefan Nielsen to the team sheet next season. Lets see what the points limit is for next season who I think that we need to add to the team. Finally good luck to the Aces for the Final, and hopefully they can get that Play Off Final win.

Well we really have put the cat amongst the pigeons. Peterborough look more than likely to finish top. Before tonight I would have said that they would have chosen us at Sheffield. I have a feeling that they may well now choose the Wolves.

Jack Thomas has been showing some decent form lately. With Nielsen riding well above his current Premiership average the riders available for us to use as Guest replacements is very limited. And they are unlikely to score the points that Stefan would have potentially scored.

You cannot re-sign a rider that you have previously dropped. I think that you can use them as a Guest rider, maybe someone who know the rules better than me will correct me if I am wrong. Could be that James has decided that he does not want to ride for the club after been dropped.

He suffered broken ribs, broken collarbone and a punctured lung. Don't think we will see him ride again this season. The replacement Kyle Bickley appears to be the one tomorrow, for the rest of the season who knows, but with the transfer window shut we are not likely to get anyone any better than Bickley.

I would say that the whole of the top 5 need to be on their best form.

I would sat to guarantee a table yes it would be advisable to book.

Hopefully the situation at Kings Lynn gets sorted. Maybe the sponsor who took over the Team Manager role could take on the Owner/ Promoter role.. As for the meeting been called off. Riders don't get to call off meetings, Referee's do.

Brilliant win for Adam. Been superb for us at Sheffield this season, been a very under rated rider in my opinion.

Care to expand.

I don't see a problem with that. Would give extra rides to riders who have committed to a season in British speedway. Might also convince my own club to make Danyon Hulme a permanent replacement. Might be some issues with say the Aussie riders who might decided they want go home earlier. But the concept and the principal I totally agree.

Hearing Craig Cook was suffering from a badly stubbed big toe.

Agree totally, and recent interview Steady more or less hinted that Josh was not coming back anytime soon. For me James Shanes is the best out there available to take on the roles. But whether it is James Shanes or another rider, we need to get a rider in to replace to give a settled side. The alterative is that we continue to use available Guest riders and finish up using the likes of Kyle Bickley who is frankly not the answer.

Or maybe Heeps was instructed not to pass Batchelor so Kings Lynn could use the tactical substitute in the next race as they did. Batchelor may have been trying to get Heeps to pass him so that Lynn could not use the tactical substitute. This sort of thing has happened before.

Nicki Pedersen is on record as saying he would be open to come ride for Sheffield if his Polish team failed to make the Play Offs. https://www.speedwaygp.com/news/article/8677/pedersen-still-eyes-tigers-role

I am sure I read at the start of this season that they were cancelling the cut off for signing and changes.

Apologies guys did not see Crang's name on the list.

Finding a replacement for Batch is easier said than done, there is no one apart from maybe Rohan Tungate (Dropped by his Polish club but not a consistent performer.) a possible replacement. There will be riders that will come available when riders that ride for Polish clubs that are not going to make the Play Offs and racing in GP series maybe be prepared to come over and act as replacement for Batch. These riders will come available after the last fixture due to ridden between 20th to 22nd August. Nicki Pedersen Chris Holder Kenneth Bjerre Are riders could well be ready and willing to come over and ride for the club.

I think that you will find that Luke Crang is not Edinburgh Rising Star. I would imagine that Nathan Greaves who is on the list will be re-declared Edinburgh's Rising Star rider.

Go to around 20;30 and Troy tells them that he has now a British passport.

Troy definitely has a British passport he mention when he was a Guest on the podcast with Scott Nicholls and Shane Childs.

Batch is riding only for Sheffield. He has stated that he is having problems with the bike and not feeling right on the bike. And I do have degree of sympathy for him. But in the past we have had riders who have suffered loss of form, and they are back on the track after the meeting trying to sort any problems they have. From what I have seen so far this season he has a bad meeting packs the bikes away as soon as he finished. No sign of him going for an after meeting spin to try and sort out his problems.

I believe the top league in Sweden ride on a Tuesday, its the lower leagues ride on Thursday. So any rider that we would be looking at to replacing Batch would be available on Thursday's.
