  1. I think that subject was exhausted at the time 🙃
  2. Nostalgia ain't what it used to be. Even so, Kennett is hactually two weeks younger than Danny King. Can't imagine he will appear to be any worse than Hellström-Bängs in terms of on-track effort. He rode at Iwade for Kent Kings against Mildenhall on 10th May, beaten only by James Shane's in the final heat: Eagles: Edward Kennett 14(5), Ben Morley 12(5), Jack Kingston 11+1(5), Connor King 5+2(5), Alex Chadd 5+1(5), Nathan Hargrave 5(5). – 52 Fen Tigers: James Shanes 12(5), Ben Whalley 10(5), Sam Woods 7+1(5), Kenzie Cossey 6+1(5), Patryk Daniszewski 3(5), Max Broadhurst 0(5) – 38 I know this means nothing in terms of how Kennett might perform in the Prem, but at least it shows he's kept fit and is still interested in riding.
  3. They ask for a volunteer from the crowd? You're welcome to check the Regs to see if there's anything that covers such an eventuality ...
  4. By the same token of you saying J.Holder only got 6 last time at Belle Vue, Kurtz's scores at Sheffield last season were 9+1 from 5 (with a last in his final ride) and 4 from 5 (with three blobs).
  5. Regs: 011.4 Facilities "If riding at #7 a guest from the Rising Star list must be used, their MA must be lower or equivalent to the missing rider."
  6. You do realise you're not replying to Woffinden ...
  7. Just had a very quick glance, and race-winning times don't look any different from other meetings this season - perhaps the surface was more unpredictable? PS: Owlerton isn't fast?!?! 😂
  8. There are always people late at football matches, because you see the empty seats gradually filling (and at the start of the second half too). Although, to be fair, a couple of Prem matches were delayed this season because of problems on the roads, which prevented access to the stadium. Plus, speedway is nothing to do with football - or any other sport. It's British speedway tradition for the parade to be part of the meeting, i.e. Ipswich speedway has always advertised the start time as the time of the parade, i.e. 7:30pm and first race at 7:45pm. I really don't see what the problem is - in the list of British speedway's problems, this must be rate in the bottom half a percent.
  9. The new Ipswich promotion couldn't find a #1 ... by the time they took over, all the riders had already planned their schedules for the season - the Foxes had no chance. As of now, it'll be tough for BV to find a replacement for Bewley ...
  10. Thanks - I must have misremembered or misunderstood. Maybe the Witches misunderstood too, and went for a 25% guest 😅
  11. Just wondering: Hellström-Bängs’ ban ended on Friday, 15th, so … maybe the Witches didn’t have a facility, and had to use a non-contracted rider, which Lambert could be classed as?
  12. Indeed, the Deadbeets must have been full of confidence after that excellent performance at home to Belle Vue.
  13. I would have thought bottom of the barrel, rather than crumbs ... Or was he the addition to the Witches armoury that finally tipped Bluster's decision to call it off?
