If the islanders don't sort their air fence out there could be a whole team looking for new rides.

Well something would need to be sorted quite quickly so as to avoid leaving their riders in limbo and maybe missing out on other team places

i've raced the longtrack at Plattling in Germany a few times, 5 corners !!! quite tiring to say the least

Have we seen the last of the wightlink islanders ? The air fence issue may be the death knell for the club. What will happen to the riders either way, what do the fans want to see next year ?

If the rumours that the IOW wont be riding next year due to the sir fence issue, what clubs would be interested in their riders for 2014 ?

yes mate, totally agree.

Any news on this? the updates site won't work for me

Cue another 14 pages of " back in the day" without answering the original question

Poole. 2014 premier league champions !! It could happen.

So far we've had ..... Associated with people of low intelligence.. Reminds people of hells angels .... Past world champions didn't have tats ... Puts off older people .... Street organ grinder .. ( it's not 1930 !!!) And a whole lot more of drivel that just reinforces why our sport is going nowhere publicity wise. My son is 17 and just starting his speedway career and ..... He's just had his first tattoo. Most of the riders he rides against have tattoos, quite a few have piercings. It's fashion. If they regret it in later life that's their problem but for gods sake This has now gone on for 15 pages and there seems to be some people who think we're still in 1930.

It's post conviction. She Is now over 16. Her name has been splashed all over the Sun in her "exclusive story". No legal problems with naming her at all now do no need to get all outraged.

But how many times did you crash that Honda ? Can you call on many like minded friends ( who's job it was to ride Hondas ) to give you their opinions in the same type of crash ? We're there any witnesses to this honda crash who can back up your opinion of the story ? ( maybe one of them could be an official who's seen many honda crashes ) How many more pages are you gonna bang on about " in depth well researched studies " in what is to all extent a ten pound sport and make yourself look foolish rather than accept the opinion of professional racers who's opinions and experiences are about as close as you're gonna get to the study you so desperately want ? Just go to the pits at any meeting and ask the riders if they think it's a good thing or not. Or maybe pay to have the study done yourself as you're so desperate to see one in print

Jeeez. This topic has had more lines on this forum than any news company could be bothered with. Even the tabloids with their love of seeing celebreties and sports stars get their comeuppance can't be bothered with the case. Just goes to show how far our beloved sport has fallen. Is it really THAT interesting a thread to warrant all these pseudo leal eagles coming on here to give us their learned opinions ? On a related note ( and just as boring I suppose ) the teacher who ran off with the girl we couldn't name ( <removed - YOU might be willing to get charged over a stupid ruling in UK law but WE wont on your behalf>) was caught in my pub in Bordeaux. It was my daughter who recognised him and set up the sting. Funny old world eh ?

It's the viscious circle for Adam. To up your average you need good equipment. This years equipment was secondhand at the start of the year, there's been quite a few thousand spent keeping the van on the road Ok now he has some experience of British speedway it's the search for sponsors before next season and they're not exactly falling from the trees. I know some people expressed disappointment after the pre season hype, but he is still only 17 and every track he visited this year ( with the exception of two) was for the first time. Broken bones need to heal and the loooong search for sponsorship starts. ( even if the format for next years leagues isn't yet decided)

Elephantman. Just a quick question. Have you ever raced speedway ?

That would be a shame as no one stops riding unless they really have to, just look at Ben's comebacks this year after some horrendous crashes. I know that Adam actually put off having his wrist plastered for several days and has since looked into removing it after a week to try out and see if he can hold on, these guys just don't want to let the team down so for the fans not to show up would be a bit demoralising for the riders that are able to be there .

Ellis out Tungate out Lanham out Barker out This has been a long year but obviously not meant to be. Proud to have been a witches supporter this year. Roll on 2014

In his opinion he had one of his best games .... My post was tongue in cheek, being accused of posting rubbish by you is about 2358th on the list of things I give a rats arse about. Anyone who thinks a rider doesn't do his best everytime he rides has never swung a leg over a bike. It's not tiddlywinks out there

If you played hungover, you were hardly giving it your best shot were you ? If you knew you had a game you'd have stayed sober. Obviously cheating the public .... Poor show

I think we've all got by now that you don't LIKE the play offs, but do you HAVE to keep using capitals to make us believe everything you write is FACT ?

Fractured scaphoid

Let's hope it's not to bad as it bloody hurts

Just waiting for X-ray now

Does that mean we can use RR for him ? Seriously. Get well soon mate.

What happened to Morten last night ?? Also thought maybe Adam might have done better in heat 14 Oh well
