This might sound radical but if you attended through thick and thin then there would be more chance of a competitive team on track?….

I’m right in saying Paco ran last in his first heat? Both the official website and speedway updates have him down as a second place.

Yes I did think that would be the decision before they came to tapes. Swapping reserves in ht8 and 9 seemed an obvious change to make.

Ah I stand corrected. I suppose if that wasn’t the case then teams would be taking advantage right, left and centre.

Great night and win with all the new lads showing promise. Sam and Josh are absolutely class - Josh’s pass in ht15 was tremendous. Paco is going to be a character - get the feeling he will delight and frustrate in equal measure! Great heat win for Lasse and despite Jacob only scoring one I thought he didn’t look off the pace and I’m sure will get dialled in. I smelt a rat in ht8 when Proctor went through the tapes and allowed Etheridge in but Proctor then appeared for his final programmed ride so maybe I shouldn’t be so suspicious!

54-36 to the blue and gold

Anyone make it along to press and practice?

Then it’ll cost you £2 extra. For Edinburgh it is only really Glasgow, Berwick, Newcastle and at a push Redcar fans who could make a last minute decision on whether to travel.

I personally would keep online sales open until the meeting starts or maybe an hour before. There might be reasons I’m not party to that make that impractical though.

It’s not though and hasn’t been for a good while. The system must work otherwise it would be dropped. Buy early, if you’re an away fan and can’t make a rescheduled meeting the promotion will see you right I am sure.

Does anyone still rock up and just pay on the gate? Getting a ticket online ahead of time is pretty standard across sport these days even more so post covid. Hell i was at a 5th tier football match in England at the weekend and even it was all ticket!

Anyone know if Ekstraliga will be shown on British tv this year?

10 for Josh. Tried to get the stream working but it wasn’t loading for some reason. Decent haul for Hook - sounds like he passed Sam in one heat too.

In safe hands then

Any news on when we should expect fixtures?

That would be one for the promotion to answer not me. It has no bearing on whether the team announcement method was a good idea however. You know that but for some reason you’re insisting on trying to sound like a marketing strategist.

Give up mate. You’ve taken a position that most agree is bizarre but you feel like you need to stick with.

1. Edinburgh Monarchs ….the rest

Thankfully Edinburgh are rammed full of creativity and skill so that particular well isn’t dry after the team announcement. Such an odd take on the situation

They do that too but very wisely closer to and during the season.

But why can’t they be creative when it comes to the team reveal? I must be thick because I’m totally missing your point. It’s not an either or situation in my head.

Yes fair point. We shouldn’t stop the development of talent just because it won’t directly benefit Edinburgh Speedway however.

I think the reaction to the way Edinburgh presented the 2022 shows you it was well received so I suspect you’re in the minority in your view thankfully. Not sure why we’re bothering with race suits either - will do nothing to attract newcomers……..

But it surely doesn’t hurt it? You sound an absolute hoot.

Connor should be in the Armadale Devils team
