  1. Of the riders who have failed tests in the last 2 years, is anyone surprised who they were? Rumours about some of them have been knocking about for sometime so maybe British Speedway has been "randomly" clearing its decks.
  2. Unfortunately the cost of a test is very high. I was told upto £500 per test. When the testers turn up they choose 4 riders at "random". They know who they want to test but, it's just catching them.
  3. You may need to change that.its the same night as the under 19 final.
  4. Never understand the term "spare bike". In the olden days there was a track spare, an old nail that was left in the corner. Now most have 2 race prepared bikes to every meeting. They may prefer one over the other but, its never a spare.
  5. Now that the podcast has been released, 1. There is no tie in with wolves 2.monday nights only 3.premiership 4.mr Dickson has moved on 5. Stop moaning about it and trying to put everything down. Look to the positives and support the club and applaud Nigel Tolley for his efforts & cash. If the club runs premiership it's still running.
  6. FGA or any other of the grasstrack organisations up and down the country still have a host of young men ( & women) wanting to have a go at speedway. Problem is the powers that be seem not to want them, so involvement in the MDL is vital to them and clubs should be pushing for more teams not less.
  7. Planning the under 19s with the on going play offs will be a slow shuffle of dates. It's not been brushed under any carpets yet and I hope it never will be.
  8. You right, accidents do happen, however has a rider ever been tested after causing one?
  9. Does it matter what was taken or how it was taken. The rules are in place to protect the individual and or those around them , other riders or spectators.
  10. What a tangled wicked Web property development weaves.
  11. I was going to click like but, that didn't seem right. Dislocated hip I believe, get well soon Sam.
  12. Please tell me how else do you find out, or do you abandon the meeting and every other meeting when someone has a flat tyre. I'm sure that will give everyone something to moan about.
  13. Howarths tyre did explode and left a large hole in it. There were concerns that it could be a bad batch of tyres ( like at Peterborough) but how was the referee going to find out after heat 1. He had to continue with the meeting to find out and was proven right and no other issues were raised.
  14. Just a small question , why is everyone so bothered as to where the riders are going to set up their pit bay?
  15. YES !! 3 so far is only the tip of the iceberg. Rumours of white powder up noses and mechanics peeing in bottles has been about for a while. The sport needs to clamp down early and not just hand out 3 month bans ,but life bans.
  16. Will the Birmingham faithful have anything to shout about?
  17. Another idea that has to be looked into. Club colours of red green Amber orange yellow white red and black could be a challenge.
  18. So then Vadim, there are 2 clubs needing your services and want to sign you, Birmingham or loads of money Glasgow. Don't take to long thinking about it.
  19. We are all going to die, so why do we bother living?
  20. Now if 1 of the brum weak links is taken ill on the drive up, brum could use 2 poole guests and make sure of the win.
  21. £1500 fine and 6 months to pay it. May need to get a real job, interesting job interview " experience?" " I used to be a speedway rider" "and why did you stop doing that?"
