To be fair I was at kings lynn supporting Ipswich and we had a couple of total dick heads infront of us who supported Ipswich and were giving Kenyan a hard time and swearing loudly at him.
ok he had a bad meeting but no need at all for the abuse. Bet those two guys have never been on a speedway bike
Dont be a dick! Gate three at Sheffield is appalling .
has been for ages now so why on earth are they incapable of sorting it out?
no doubt the black arts will take over when Sheffield have a run off gate three .
totally unfair if you ask me as all gates should be the same
Lol that’s true but he should get £220 for a delay over 3 hours so make sure Jason that you claim it. When we got delayed over night in Salzberg in January we ended up getting £700 between the two of us and got to stay in the poshest hotel we have ever stayed in for the night.
wasn’t much of a hardship lol

I would be amazed if he did. From what I understand Tungate actually missed the flight where as Jason was on the aircraft when there was an issue. Not sure what Jason could have done?
not much excuse for missing a flight? Never missed one yet while heading on holidays lol
Yes true. Maybe he could have rearranged to use the same flight as Jason?
oops that wouldn’t have gone well. Come on guys I’m sure you have all had nightmares at airports. I know I have.
it was bound to happen at some point and has anyone known Jason to ever miss a meeting in the Uk due to flight delays?
he has been extremely lucky considering the amount of flights these guys do in a season
How is it cutting it fine? If was already in the country he would not have got to Manchester until about 5pm anyway and as he lives in Norwich he would still have had almost the same trip by car.
Too many reading far more into this. Once at the airport if your flight then gets delayed then you are screwed. I’m sure if had been told the night before he would have managed to find another flight.
No statement needed. What was Jason supposed to do? His flight has been delayed by 5 hours. In normal circumstances he would have been out of Stansted airport by 1pm and then a 4 hour drive to Manchester getting him there in plenty of time. It was bound to happen at some point with a flight delayed . Jason is the most loyal rider to British Speedway and I would think you struggle to fine any other time that this has happened which is a miracle in itself considering the amount of flight delays that happen. It could have easily been any of the other riders who were flying in today if their flight had been delayed.
it seems as if Tungate didn’t even get to the plane which is hardly the same as being at the airport and suddenly your flight is delayed.
It doesn’t matter how you try to spin it Jason has been one of the most loyal GP riders to UK speedway. There is no team in the league who would not want him in their team.
Both Jason and Emil have bought plenty of entertainment to the fans at Ipswich . More so than than any other riders in recent years ( although Jason if you are reading this you have yet to do full lap of the stockcar track on 1 wheel)!
Totally agree. Jason and Emil just have to come back. I have a feeling the points limit will be raised next year. Otherwise there will be way to many riders out of a job.
What was quite amusing though was after heat 15 when Jason and Emil came round the stock car track for their customary lap of honour Lamberts decided to join them. Maybe in his mind he thought all the cheering was for him lol.
