Still think smarzlik s favourite for the meeting

Thank s RR for doing beat the bookie again .£100 on Thomsen more please .good luck everyone

Bloody hell Billy Bales remember asking him if he had any spare goggles and him giving me a pair .Arnie Haley Bob Paulson John Dews Charlie Monk Jim Airey god those we re the days

Shooey lost his nerve no shame at all remember him coming over with Bellevue to race at owlerton when Sheffield re opened going into the 1 st corner lap 2 or 3 and looking over his shoulder to make sure no one was there before moving out to try to pass the rider in front not a good sign.if the nerve for racing had gone he did the right thing to get out

If no Nikki p no Jack holder no Musielak i will be thinking twice about going ..Was really looking forward to seeing mr pedersen ride at owlerton but looks again like it’s not happening

Was hoping to see Nicki p ride at Sheffield this year if his polish club are refusing to let him ride over here I personally hope they finish bottom of the league,watched them the other night and they struggled to draw at home to a six man Częstochowa team

Why is this in thread in the big boys league. Lol

Average meeting last night with lots of races decided on the 1st and 2nd bends from the start.Enjoyed heat 4 with young Edward s finding himself in front of Musielak for a few laps he rode a good steady line to say he had him all over his back wheel pushing him hard but fairly .Good experience for him .Heat 10 a good race with holder toft and Pickering close for 4 laps ,holder eventually getting past toft.We had handbags out after heat 14 ,didn’t have a good view of what happened on the way to line but it spoilt a good race .During the race kerr managed to get past toft but couldn’t shake him off on the last 2 bends he decided to ride on the inside and toft out thought him and came round the outside ,on the run to the line it got tight on the back straight words got exchanged at the pit gate out with the handbags.would love to see the replay.The BSN team we re there looked a nice little setup with them camped behind the pits and at the back of the stand coming off the 4th bend.Anyone watching last night what did it look like is it worth a try ? I understand it’s about £9.00 a month

Good meeting to start the season .Heat 11 for me the race of the night watching Dan try everything to get past Tobi who covered every move helping to protect Lewis Kerr up front and shaking hands after good stuff.Ellis looked looked down on power being past by both Kurtz and Lidsey who both then pulled away easily ,leaving him well behind .Mulford good ride in heat 8 took advantage of a mix up on the 1st bend got in front and didn’t put a foot wrong with bellego chasing hard.I think Belle Vue s title hopes rest on Kurtz. He goes well all season and I think he will pull the others along .Dan Bewleys score looks worse than it was .Apart from the 1st heat when he missed the start and got filled in he was definitely on the pace .For Sheffield solid home display Holder and Tobi leading the way, Bellego is good to have in heat 1.Howarth good hard ride with Kurtz going into bend 3 .Ellis did well to say he looked slow .Kerr is very handy to have at 6 especially at home .Gilkes had a good opening race battle with Mulford and hopefully should settle in .Good meeting some good hard racing and all riders go home safe .I enjoyed it even though I was stood with some Belle Vue supporters who yelled a lot blew bloody whistle s and made too much noise (only kidding hope they all got home safely)

Bloody good read only trouble is you need arms like Hercules to be able to hold it for more than 5 minutes lol

Hey that would have been a laugh

So they got it wrong surprise surprise.someone should go out and see if Walt Disney wants to sponsor speedway next year will the Peterborough lads get paid for riding in the semi final last night or will it be transferred over to the wolves pair I would say another nail in the coffin but think we are past that and the coffin getting lowered into the ground lol we ve got a fantastic sport here but the powers that be seem hell bent on cocking it up come on lads get it sorted

It will like PC at the back fighting it’s way through lol

Could be doubtful they might be picking the winner out off a box lol

Just chuck All the names of the teams in a box and let the ref pick out the winner would save a lot of time lol Another meeting where fans are left hanging about with no one knowing what’s going on it s laughable frustrating and bloody annoying.the fans there could and should have seen a run off

Only my 3rd meeting this year .some good racing has said above involving king with Kerr and Ellis riding hard but fair. Doyle a class act and nice to see him ride in Britain hope he s back next year good to see riders like mountain racing against him. Holder love him or hate him it’s good that he ll be back riding here again next year we need more gp riders here racing for a full season. Was also good to meet the great Peter Collins and get a signed copy of his autobiography all in all a good night .

Got mine tonight at Sheffield. Was great to meet Peter and have him sign the book ,will be reading it this weekend at our caravan in north wales

He s my idea for next year .when the teams have been finalised and the fixtures are out at the beginning of the season let’s get all the team captains in 1 room .go through the fixtures tossing a coin to see who wins and who losers.the top 2 teams then can go into the play off final to decide the champions.it gives the 2 promotors all season to get 2 meetings done .forget running the league cup and the pairs it could prove too much . It’s just a thought lol

Take it you re a Man Utd fan

I ve not got a problem with the result Belle Vue won Sheffield lost that’s it done people on here have all got their own opinions and are going to be discussing it for a few weeks but nothing going to change the result

Hey might be this Christmas or could next Christmas lol

Think this threads going to go on for sometime with differing views from the Sheffield and Belle Vue fans .My view is that Belle Vue were always going to win when they signed R Lambert.With M fricke in the side I am sure Sheffield would have won.But hey ho it’s done .Hope everyone that turned up enjoyed both meeting s .Me personally I am not a lover of the play offs and have lost a lot of enthusiasm for the sport , only been to 2 meetings this year . Watched most of the gps on the tv but being in the beat the bookie Comp run by R/R keep s that interesting lol.

Could re name it,promote it right it might catch on

Sorry but they don’t work for me make the team that finishes top the champions and make the top 4 fight it out for the ko cup

Agree the team that finished top should be the league champions they have proved themselves over the season to be the best . But I would do away with knockout cup as it is now and replace it with the playoffs you have to finish in the top 4 to qualify to be in it . As it is now finishing 3rd and being crowned champions dos nt sit right with me the only stumbling block on this is that all the league matches have to be completed before the cup playoffs could take place meaning the idiot s in charge need to get there act together lol
