I'm sure gavan will soon be talking about his beloved poole team again soon.

Can't they take a packed lunch like most people do to work.??

My wife left me, best day of my life. My life is now so much better. No kids involved though, so just a stroll in the park. Don't let it get you down Gavan. Your kids will still love you.

Hopefully it won't be that bad before I depart, but just in case, I had better up the thrashings now, on a track only of course

Hopefully there will still be plenty of gas guzzlers left for me until I'm gone. I'm a petrol head and love thrashing an engine and the sound it makes.

You do realise that for the previous 20 odd seasons before, that the rule was in place? Then only relaxed it for one season. Did they give any advanced warning then?

But most of them had previously doubled, so where allowed. It all went Pete Tong last year when a couple extra did it.

I was joking, just like this latest speedway farce. Everyone knows old engine oil should be used to cook chips in.

Electric bikes or changing rules so Scott Nicholls can turn out for the Panthers. I don't know what's more stupid.

Anyone Mr Ged wants, just get the rules changed.

You can't flush a battery down drown a drain like you can old engine oil

How much does one of those cost?

Wise up people, this is speedway. If it has a chance to do something stupid and make its self look even more daft, it makes the most of that chance everytime. As a punter the only thing I can do is stop handing my cash over.

Electric bikes with real bike sound through speakers, even by speedway standards that would be pathetic.

Does speedway work on tv? It's viewing figures are low even for a minority sport.

I think they be owned by the same people that own eurosport. Maybe itv 4 could show it if offered a free highlights package.

Being on tv may not have affected crowd levels in general, but no one really knows for sure. What is sure though is they certainly haven't gone up since being on tv. I know of a few people that don't go as much now as they can watch it on tv.

In world superbikes last year they actually allowed the bikes to be louder, as when they cut the decibel level it lost some of what makes bikes racing. Its now louder than ever, and the fans watching live get a better experience. Nothing beats the sound of an inline 4 or a twin at 15,000 revs .

Technology moves on at such a fast rate, batteries or electric motors may be old hat in the not too distant future.

They barely had enough power to get a proper slid on. Please let me be dead before that ever happens.

I would imagine speedway will be dead and buried and forgotten about long before.

Maybe if Nathan wasn't British he would have stood more of a chance of 2 teams .
