hope i don't sound like a doom and gloom merchant, and i think that the promotion are putting together a great looking side, but if the families do come back on a sunday,then all the efforts of trying to make the afternoon more appealing with various changes will all pale into insignificance if there are still the delays that occur when the 1 ambulance has to make the journey to hospital and the inevitable delays that this brings happens.this,on top of the 2 minute rule and the track grading delays will only add to the delay problems and those extra families won't be attending for long.i apologise if these things are going to be addressed along with other rules but nothing has been mentioned anywhere as of yet.

thanks to josh for all his efforts in his time at sheffield but onwards and upwards for the tigers as would deffo had been too risky in the side

and pairs!

well.some changes for 2019.same set up as last season though for league matches and the two cup comps.sunday race days.sorry but thursdays are speedway days at sheffield.can understand the kids bit but i think that deffo rule me out for next season as i have plenty of other things that i do on a sunday.should have made the move to the premiership and taken advantage of the b.t sport coverage.lower points limit as well, one of my favourite riders looking as though he will be gone.sad times.i wish sheffield all the best for the future.will still do the g.p weekend and maybe a few other meets but not at sheffield.so after 42 years following the tigers comes an end of an era.so sad
-
a huge congrats to all concerned.good to see our sport get the profile it deserves.well done.

kyle stated today in the sheffield star that he wants to come back to owlerton in 2019.and if the promoters are ambitious they will sign kasper up as well.

and then you woke up!!!

my thoughts on what next season should bring. 1 a fair points limit for team building 2run with one league but regionalise into two groups (north and south) as has already been mentioned 3if three leagues again then home and away league meetings to be run at the start of the season with other competitions coming afterwards.this would represent better value for money and keep the season going as this season has been far too short. 4.promoters.please give value for money when purchasing a season ticket.at sheffield the only benefit gained was half price parking.£1 instead of 2.im not asking for the world, just a bit more of an incentive to part up front with my hard earned.maybe a free prog or a cut price one. 5.more of an incentive to entice the younger generation to attend in a time when there are numerous other things for parents to take their kids to.they are the future when all said and done. 6the return of a second half competition.time and weather permitting. 7would love to see a slight price reduction for visiting supporters on production of their season tickets (tried at a few tracks before) 8 would like to see the t.s rule used probably twice in a match or even when the team falls 6 points behind throughout.

i know this may be trivial to a lot of people but just one of my biggest gripes is the lack of medical cover at meetings.a bib dislike of mine, and I'm sure many supporters, is having to wait anything between an hour and an hour and a half for the one ambulance there is to return from the hospital.one ambulance, in a professional sport is really unacceptable.i know of some newbies including ones that i have introduced saying that they would not return because standing around was ludicrous so come on promoters sort out this situation before the die hards also start to get fed up.

in all honesty, if somerset do drop down as is being mooted then i would be very surprised if we see charles back in sheffield colours as it looks like he will be gary may's number one target.i would personally love to see him back as he gives a lot to the side and is capable of much more.classy rider.
-
bit harsh that.would welcome him at sheffield
-
decent enough looking team that .
-
just to say a very very big congratulations to all connected with workington comets this season on your championship final win and your k.o cup final win.very well done
-
well done tai on a third world title.was nice to see the poles getting well and truly peed off.good luck comets on your quest for the title.
-
and sheffield fans.why can't we just all be nice to one another for a change.if we can't say something constructive then why bother.
-
for the meeting
-
sorry i offended you wasn't too sure where to post it as there was no post set up on the forum
-
just to say that i found it disappointing that there was no mention at all of charles,kyle and casper riding in the teeside silver helmet meeting at redcar last night.was this meeting deemed not important enough to be worthy of some press.diabolical really.for the record,kyle scored 6 points,charles and casper scored 10 each but missed out in the semi.well done all the lads.

i like todd but is only really riding to his average and i don't think he will push on from where he is at the moment.hope i am wrong but can't really see it. -

good meeting last night to finish off the season.good effort from the lads last all tried v.hard.well done kasper on another decent performance.special mention to charles who was dynamic.such a class rider when in full flow and was worth admission price alone.we must try and sign him up again for next season along with kyle and kasper and we've now signed zane so then build the team around that four if we can.all in all a v.good nights racing with plenty of passing. -
e.w.r and rub.damn predictive text!

i see on the redcar website that the bears promoter has lodged a complaint over the use of r/r for james shanes who was representing g.b in the world cup long track event.how petty.i wonder if he would have done the same had we not gained a point out of the meeting.for goodness sake and for the sake of the sport either us or the bears are going to finish bottom or next to bottom so is it that important.it,s been a poor league season for both teams and if you are so desperate to not finish bottom then its sad.the meeting at the ear last friday was a cracker and would have probably been less so if a junior would have had to be drafted in.so i am going to be petty now and say that i hope that we now win and that james returns and scores well and we win to really run it in.
