Racin Jason 72

Well done to the promotion. Welcome back Ben

Berwick are the blueprint of how to run a speedway on a budget very successfully

I think the health of a injured rider is more important than the inconvenience of the crowd. the rider could suffer a heart attack or a fit so need to be in a ambulance in case of a worst case scenario.

I blame Berwick !!!! They are always involved. seriously when will these promotions learn. Hope Ty is ok

Very happy when we signed Doyle and Riss but to build 2 points under the limit is unforgivable. And before press day I said our season depends on cam One chin and he will be excellent. Two chins he will be poor. 8 months to get himself fit and he obviously can’t be bothered and yet the management defend him yet again.

I doubt they even know who he is

No Anders tonight as he is Ill. James Shanes replaces him.

I watched the live stream from Oxford last night. When you get replaced in your last ride with a reserve who is a guest and a 3 pointer in the championship then you need to look at yourself

The promotion may claim they can’t afford to give free admission but imo they can’t afford not to. Definitely a case of shooting themselves in the foot. Especially as they have invested so much in the track and new fence. if you had free entry you would give them a second chance. At £8 probably not for the casual supporter

Must be because he is cheap or the management didn’t go on past form. my bet is both. andersen can’t ride lynn for toffee despite being a lynn asset. Another poor decision

With much success not including tonight ?

Has aarnio ridden at Kings lynn before ? Or is this his debut ?

I’ve been going to foxhall since march 1985 so that’s 36 seasons and I’ve missed less than ten home meetings in all that time. normally I might miss a meeting as I’m away on holiday but I never choose to miss a home meeting however this Thursday I’m choosing not to go to foxhall. £23 for 15 heats and a likely home defeat. No thanks

What would you estimate the crowd to be today ?

Spot on. The promotion can’t afford to lose fans so early in the season especially as they have rectified the track which was one of the reasons for poor crowds last season

I don’t know but as we are 2 points under the limit we can fit him in ironically Ben has lost a fair bit of weight over the winter and is riding extremely well so far this season !!!!!

Swap heeps for Ben Barker

The best three brits not riding in their home league

I would say no but he will consistently score 7 at home and 3 away. At number 7 he will definitely be better than congreve

I’m sure championship racing would be more enticing that ndl

If you replaced congreve with Ben morley it would definitely strengthen you up at home. Without breaking the bank.

Decided to go the Kent v Thurrock today as I’d not been to iwade for 25 years. found my way there ok and plenty of signs of speedway which were helpful. Very friendly staff on car parking duty and on the admission gate. going into the stadium it looked no different than it did 25 years ago but the track looked immaculate and super smooth we ventured onto the back straight as the home straight was fairly full even at 11am. Unfortunately there wasn’t any music to keep us entertained and the pa was inaudible. Once the racing started we saw some decent racing but the delays between heats were so long especially with no background music. By heat 6 we went to get some food and were quickly seen and our order taken. I chose a sausage in a roll as they don’t do hot dogs !!! 25 minutes later I finally received my food but to be fair all the staff were working flat out and and were very apologetic and polite yet another delay for the air fence and then a electrical problem was enough for me. Two hours in and 8 heats completed. So back in the van we got and returned to Ipswich now I know this is a new promotion at a newly reopened league venue and you have to make allowances but honestly this is exactly why speedway is in the state it’s in

I purchased the stream and was very impressed with the first broadcast. great racing in front of a very healthy crowd. I expected Leicester to win easily but Scunthorpe rode very well indeed. And deserved the emphatic win.

I would suggest he is about two stone heavier than Danny king who is of similar height. if you put a extra two stone on any riders bike they would be at a massive disadvantage. he has had 8 months to work on his fitness and it looks like he hasn’t bothered. When he was trim in 2019 he had his best ever season by a mile. He was fantastic and a joy to watch. I want that Cameron at foxhall.

All of them are riding apart from Plymouth. And mpt Hans and Ben barker can’t guest today due to other commitments
