    The big difference with bangers is that the drivers PAY to race so you get income from the paying public but don’t pay out the salaries that you do for speedway riders.

    Arlington has been saved!! Spedeworth have taken a full lease of the stadium from the Dugard’s and will invest to do all of the remedial work required to reopen. Given that Spedeworth are friendly landlords of speedway at the likes of Northampton and Mildenhall, surely this is a great chance for speedway to return at Eastbourne

    So Pirates scored 60 and Cluff got 0, who’d have thought it?
  4. Marky_Mark
    Is that honestly the best rider they could get? No disrespect to Mitch but he’s a number 7 on a 3.00 average replacing a heat leader. I’ll save my £22 this week I think as this will easily be another 60 points for the Pirates

    5-10 million!! How much do you think these riders earn after spending out on top level equipment, mechanics and travel

    Sorry to hear that, it was a heavy fall. Still riding tonight or needs a break?
  7. Marky_Mark
    Great to hear, thanks for the reply. He had another great meeting, really progressing this season. Good luck at Northampton tonight

    And seriously what was the point of that change in a meeting where Poole won by 27 points, it’s not like the result was ever in doubt so all it will do is dent the confidence of a 16 year old rider who is still learning. Does anyone know how Luke Harrison is? That was a nasty looking fall, hope he’s ok

    It doesn’t quite add up, housing applications take months to go through so they may as well had let the fixtures continue to have some income. I don’t understand how it’s nothing to do with the Dugards this time as they are the stadium owners, unless it’s an outside factor such as the stadium being repossessed?
  10. Marky_Mark
    I did read that it can’t be sold for housing as the site is too contaminated, not sure how true that is
  11. Marky_Mark
    Best news would be if Spedeworth buy the stadium as they seem friendly towards speedway at other venues, Mildenhall, Northampton etc
  12. Marky_Mark
    No point putting your 2 best riders in heat 15 then?
  13. Marky_Mark
    Why on earth did they not put Anders Rowe in heat 15, he’d scored 11 from 4 and is the in form rider. Possibly cost them the bonus point?
  14. Marky_Mark
    I totally agree!! Nothing against Poole but as you say they’ve had plenty long enough now to have signed a replacement rider, so I have zero sympathy that they are finding it more difficult to find a guest. They have been using Harrison and Kennett as reserve guests who are heat leaders at their respective clubs so I suspect they weren’t in a particular rush if the only available riders were weaker on paper than their recent guests.

    Klindt?
