Whats the format and who are the Pairs for the Slyde in Ryde Bonanza.

Did not know, does the reserve have to be a Under 21? Can he be used at any time in the meeting to replace a rider at any time?

Point made and all you so called speedway know it all, failed to answer a simple question, 1 nil to the bird brained sex, Sidney the (bird brained robin) !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Actually it was Mark Loram

Silly topic really as different times always have different circumstances and will always create arguments and controversy. Who never won a GP but became World Champion? Who should have won the Individual One off World Final but was not allowed to compete?

Buxton had to make team changes due to extenuating circumstances, Cradley made them to win and struggled at home. Well done to Buxton credit where it is deserved.

Very easy to pick the Riders in my opinion. It is to be staged at NSS Manchester. In view of this my Team would be 1. Tai Woffinden 2. Danny King 3. Craig Cook 4. Robert Lambert 5. Steve Worrall 6. Richard Lawson What would your team be?

How many people who have commented on this thread actually attend meetings? Do they actually know where the riders learned how to ride or gained experience? If you do not want to watch don`t, but do not criticize the efforts of everyone who put time and effort into these meetings.

Hope we don`t have to wait too long for news regarding weather. Arrived last week at !9:25 and was wonderful weather, but called off at 19:05!

Will anyone be going, bad forecast for rain from 4 till 9 again. is this fixture to be doomed again?

Should be postponed early due to weather and not a fiasco like Lynn yesterday. Anyone looking at the weather anywhere today knows the outcome now.

Why is Klindt reserve for Leicester, thought the riders at reserve were British?

Tai Woffenden and Robert Lambert didn't go! Remember who else didn't go? Will they be picked? Cracking piece in this weeks Speedway Star, stating Robert could not afford it but Steady was on expenses with kids at MACON! The Speedway Star states `his inexperience on the Belle Vue circuit compared to the likes of Scott Nicolls and Craig Cook may see him overlooked`. Pray tell who at present has any experience at the `NEW BELLE VUE` and if they have any well why wasn't a TRAINING CAMP HELD THEIR AS OPPOSED TO CROATIA? Speaks volumes for BRITISH SPEEDWAY!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

So how many of the boys actually learned something at the weekend that they didn't know? It was an expensive few days for parents to watch a few trainers test bikes of their own and show little regard for the lads. If this upsets the powers that be then so be it but reality sucks.

Oh dear, just the typical response and example of a keyboard warrior/troll. Read and read again my post, oh well it actually says they race because they enjoy it. Doesn't it! It also says a lot more, but unless its explained and broken down like explaining to a child its too hard to comprehend. If you have a steak and don't enjoy it or throw it up, yes complain. But 2 months later are you still on the back of whoever served, cooked it? Well probably yes you are, but maybe it was your body saying something to you. Had enough of people who respond with I know everything and better. Only have to look how many posts you have made to see how worked up and fed up with other people you get.

One thing that never surprises me is the amount of criticism that riders suffer. Mainly from those who have never ridden a speedway bike. Let the riders get on with it and encourage them, the last thing any sportsman/woman wants is some idiot spouting how bad they are. They are participating to entertain you, enjoy themselves and possibly attain a decent level with money to boot! Leave the lads alone and let the talking come from this years performances. Good luck to all the Kent Riders in 2016 and hope you make all your supporters eat there words of criticism.

Promotion is the act of encouraging something to happen or develop. Promoters are supposed to help forward or encourage (enterprise or result); publicize and sell (product); initiate (project). In the Speedway Star several articles have been printed regarding the lack of support for teams up and down the country and also several letters published that state no local publicity has been made regarding meetings or events at tracks. Preaching to the converted is witnessed in churches up and down the country every Sunday, where attendances have dwindled also. Until heads are taken out of the sand by the ones who run the sport nothing will happen. Changing the rules year in and year out will not resolve issues. Making a change in League structure and race days, will help in short term with personal finances for the converted. EMPHASIS must be made by every club to get out into their communities and PROMOTE the clubs. NEW, YOUNG, ENERGETIC AND ENTHUSIASTIC SUPPORTERS ARE REQUIRED FOR NEXT SEASON. TO ACHIEVE THIS IT BEGINS AT THE END OF THIS SEASON.

Probably more down to the Goose that paid with golden eggs has become barren and now needs culling!

The main winners tonight are the RIDERS who took a punt at the BOOKIES. They know what they did and wasn't pretty or good for the sport. Used to think promoters were killing the sport but after tonight,, well????

Goy a original Crystal Palace programme which I bought for £125 eight years ago if anyone interested

Absolutely fantastic meeting from the neutrals point. Sheffield started like a house on fire but quickly burnt out. Does not matter about the petty squabbling, get on with it on 27 September and maybe if Sheffield want it as much as Peterborough did last night, then game on.

Think you will find that progress achieved by any rider is down to one significant factor............Money. The equipment used by the successful riders mentioned on the previous posts is reflection on there success. Other riders mentioned do not have the same amounts of cash to throw at the sport.

Any scores for the semi-finals?
