Ipswich v Belle Vue 13th April
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv replied to Arch Stanton's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Not a lot In the standard cut and thrust of lap 1 Brennan possibly blocked Wights run and effectively ended his challenge for the lead Have seem plenty worse - certainly no need for that reaction From memory on previous visits when with Somerset Wright seemed to have a similar lack of understanding when partnered with Starke.... -
Ipswich v Belle Vue 13th April

Certainly did - looked like Wright was gonna nut him. Rode into him like you would an opponent you were pissed with and stuck the lid in. Then when they dismounted at the pit gate went at him again screaming and finger pointing right in his face -

From experience of visits to compost corner for many locals the answer is ..... infrequent -

Congrats to Belle Vue for a solid job and deserved win. Avoiding last places was key and put pressure on the Witches who came up short at vital times A very mundane meeting on the racing front too with only a couple of significant incidents. The hardest battles were between Brennan and Wright Lots of head scrathing ahead for the Ipswich management team. Should they twist already - I think they will stick -

Peterborough Panthers 2023

I don't think they have said he cannot ride (officially they cannot do that with the agreement between the federations) but they could invoke changes in his deal From the Chinese whispers he was signed in Poland on the basis of not riding in the UK and a signing on fee agreed. Half paid in the winter and half to come at the start of the season I understand the second half was to be withdrawn from the deal if he continued in the UK and as that alone was worth more than he could earn in the entire UK season then it became a no brainer to give up the place with the Pussycats Maybe true, maybe not but it sounds a lot more feasible than the lame "my body isn't up to the technical British tracks" trotted out in the statement -

Usually because declarations have to be made available 3 days before so are often the basis for the previews two days before -
Peterborough v Ippo 27/3
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv replied to noaksey's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
It seems to be out in the open now - the unplanned early and lengthy interval was due to tyre issues yet again -

Witches v Lions 6th April
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv replied to Badge's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Whether 6 points will be enough to see the Witches through who knows but this team should always be in the mix anywhere Definitely saw enough to be positive about Rew and Thompson doing what's required in their respective positions A relatively quiet meeting from Danyon (certainly for a home performance) but showed his worth with a determined heat 14 with him winning his battle also creating an opportunity for Riss to be back in contention Riss was poor and the difference between the slender lead gained and a more comfortable position. A disappointing showing but I don't doubt that will be put right. Looked mechanical rather than physical to me -

Because people know who pulls the strings in world speedway right now and could foresee the potential reaction from Polish clubs to the first hint to any risk to one of their big investments -

Pre Meeting Practice - Why not?
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv replied to Najjer's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
The reason not to do this is juniors are generally used to less dirt and may struggle on a fresh surface This makes a crash more likely which could mean medical delays or fence repairs which actually delay or even jeopardise the main meeting -
