  1. Latest about the AGM BRITISH Speedway bosses meet this weekend at both Elite and Premier League level for the launch of the sport's AGM. Club promoters will head to the British Speedway offices in Warwickshire to put plans in place for the 2016 campaign and beyond. However, the election of officers and final ratification of regulations is not expected to be confirmed until the conclusion of the discussions on November 3 which means any official statement this weekend is unlikely. Taken from the BSPA site http://www.speedwaygb.co/news.php?extend.29712
  2. How he didn't end up in the stock car track in one of his races this year at foxhall i will never know. Blasted out of gate 4 then seemed to be heading to get fish and chips instead of turning left !
  3. Think this will be close , well i hope so for the fans anyway . Glasgow to sneak a win at home and take a slender lead to Edinburgh on Saturday night . But think Edinburgh will be just that little too strong over both legs . Will be close but think Cook will take the winning ride in heat 13 at Edinburgh to just put it out of Glasgow's reach . But what do i know throw in a couple of dodgy ref calls a couple of EF and it could go either way . .
  4. Well its Final weekend up in Scotland , what a great advert for Scottish speedway . Local rivals going for it over 30 heats to claim the title and bragging rights over the cold dark winter . Would have loved my Witches to make it but from what i have seen this season at Foxhall Edinburgh and Glasgow were the best two teams to visit Suffolk . Good luck to both teams , hope you put on a good show for your fans .
  5. Think its needed , most of the team has been the same past 2 seasons and that hasn't got the Witches very far .
  6. Well this post has got quite a few ideas from various fans up and down the country . Have been bouncing around on a few of the EL pages on here and every now and then thou from what i can take its just rumors people are talking about a combined EL+PL . Ok its all just rumors and fans talking between themselves on here but would people be interested in this . Some are saying one big league and others have mentioned a NORTH / SOUTH split . If this idea is the way to save speedway in the long run maybe its the way to go ?
  7. Think the pressure of being a number 1 got to him a bit the year he had at foxhall. Once he dropped to 5 seemed alot better. I'd take Worrall back to foxhall in a heart beat .
  8. Would make a cracking meeting but as baldy says ouch that's alot of money to pay out . Can't see Mr Louis digging that deep into his pockets. Ah nice to see you have a soft spot for the Witches
  9. The Seasons all but over good luck to Edinburgh and Glasgow as they bid to be crowned Premier champs for 2015 . But now the topic turns to next season and the premier promoters Season AGM . We can all guess what will change for next season or what will remian the same from this season but what is it as fans that people would like to see put in place for next year or vice versa taken away for the coming season.
  10. King and Covatti get them signed asap without them this past season the Witches would have been looking at the wooden spoon. Think the Edinburgh model of a top heavy team looks the best way to go after their recent history over the past few season's. If the money is there for a top heavy big hitting top 4-5 go for it but this is all if's but's and maybe's until people find out whats going on at the promoters AGM.
  11. And we know what that means " the team have alot of potential this year " famous last words .
  12. Keep it close at the start then there might be a chance if they let Edinburgh get a lead early they don't normally get pegged back . With all that's happened this year to the Panthers they have had a very good season .
  13. Really can't see the Panthers winning the tie overall. Home side top 4 just look too strong . Yes panthers did well on there last visit but it's the crunch time if the season and think Edinburgh are flying right now . Tungate scored 9 and 4 from his 2 visits this year he needs to score alot more if the Panthers are to have any chance.
  14. A new promotion you know something we don't ?
  15. Would we want EL speedway at foxhall anyway ?
  16. Will never ever see a team like that again at Ipswich .
  17. I'm sure they will add the KOC tomorrow night as well
  18. Firstly congratulations to Poole on winning the Elite League title and applauds to Bell Vue for a valiant fight over the 2 legs . I've not been a great lover of watching EL on sky this season but both legs of the final have been worth watching from start to finish . Well think the two legs had it all some great racing between two hungry teams , incidents that got the whole forum talking , dodgy referee calls what more could you want for a final . BUT and i mean BUT this final has been tarnished by British speedways governing body's failure to act when they need to . Gogglegate or what ever people call it should have been sorted out long before the 2nd leg took place but no they choose to bury there head in the sand and in my eyes take a risk hoping that come the end of the 2nd leg the 2 points in question would not matter for the outcome of the 2015 EL winners . Well i hope they are happy now as its turned round and bit them on the arse for their failure to act . Its a shame it has come to this
  19. Going to be close I think . Cookie is flying right now but how many meetings in a row now for man and machinery will that take its toll ? Also same for Grajczoneck must 3 meetings on a row I think . Both got another in the LC final 2nd leg tomorrow. Hard to pick a winner I think just a shame it's not closer for me as would love to be there .
  20. By all means spin king start the thread I'm sure there will be plenty of interest in it
  21. Ha Ha Ha Do you lot just wait quietly in the wings waiting to jump !!! Was it a dig at Glasgow i'm not that clever , some would say it was some would say no every one has their own way of viewing things . The point i was trying to make (up to you your choice if you choose to believe me ) was that not always does having a bumper sponsor package buy you silverware come the end of the season. I applaud whats going on at Glasgow money being ploughed into speedway don't happen very often its a shame it don't happen to other clubs up and down the country
  22. I'm sure a Mr Louis has got a bumper Promotion package lined up to support the team for next season Plenty of money to build a team Oh hang on Glasgow tried that this season and its not working for them
  23. Another season on NL can only help the lads learning in the sport but surely a reserve berth at a PL club would also be a advantage to him . More chance for him to race and learn against more opponents in a higher grade of racing . Think it depends if they are thinking of doing a PL draft
  24. Why Tungate if you want a witch go for Covatti by far the better rider
