Sincerely hope this rule backfires on Polish speedway, not that I spend much money over in Poland but I certainly will not until this rule is overturned.

Here's the latest on the Poles dictating to the World if league speedway. If they go ahead with this, knowing how it will hit British speedway, I would hope that British fans will boycott Polish speedway of every sort in 2017? http://sportowefakty.wp.pl/zuzel/636973/jest-decyzja-w-sprawie-ograniczenia-liczby-lig-dla-zawodnikow

But the guys who live here or who are looked after (AJ and Zagar) make the effort so thanks to them eh!

Soooooo isn't it great that a few of them bother

No way do we want to use PL averages in team building, that's been abused for far too long ....

The SKY deal needs to be big enough to let the punters in for a donation or something, that money just isn't there ...

Jesus, that sounds terrible, the music at the Under 21s in Gdansk did my head in, some up to date stuff is fine but not the ott poop lol

What about heats 4,5,8 and 9 or is that what u mean, protected against 2nd strings? I mean just disregard heats 2 and 12.

The cleanliness of the loos have never bothered me particularly. Always about supporting my team, the quality of racing and crowd interaction ..... ok so I like a half decent cuppa but that's it lol Tell ya wife to hover or line the seat, get out as quickly as possible and enjoy the racing

IF Robert gets his chance he knows he has to make it count, perform or out ...

I would get rid of the stats from all protected races from this season and revise all averages from that for next season .....

Sick of PL fans that keep on and on about EL teams being full of PL riders. There are reasons why riders stay racing PL, of course they enjoy it but some of them would like to break through in Sweden and Poland where the big bucks are but simply can't so they need PL racing still. I read in the ELRC prog that Nick Morris and Bomber want PL racing next year because they need to race more. The amount of fixtures the EL offers is not enough but they can boost their earnings and time on the bike in the PL. So many EL riders are plying their trade in the PL as it suits their career and earning potential, it's not because they are just "PL" standard .... Years ago the PL was the training ground for riders to then make the step up to the EL, it still is to a certain extent but as I said above riders can't then make a living off EL fixtures alone so they stay PL. EL bosses need to find a way of giving EL riders more fixtures so they don't need PL racing (PL fans and promoters won't like that, if their star riders were missing eh!), more NL boys can then get places in the PL which would help their development. Obviously some sort of job share\squad system could be put in place for the guys who have got rides in Sweden and Poland (if costs could be met? .... I guess there is good reason why this hasn't been done yet though). Let's see what they come up with. Buster says in the ELRC prog that the Gerhard engine has reduced costs dramatically for those who have used them this year, that sounds a good thing for speedway Oh yeah and while I'm ranting, the pigging names Elite, Premier and National are just pigging names to differentiate between the piggin leagues, arghhhhhhhhhhh

I really hope it all works out for Leicester, it was a dream come true for many Leicester fans, they are still all out there if you can find a decent promoter for the club .....

Wow, sometimes you have to protect and stay with your riders surely?

What difference does that make exactly? fly in, fly out ..

Let's hope it helped ......

Unless the guys get rides abroad of course they want to keep their PL rides and pay, makes sense.

Such a pity the Panthers don't come back to the EL, miss our derbies ....

I was always under the impression that the Workington people loved their speedway club, when I used to come up in Lynn's PL days I'd never witnessed such generous fans, particularly in the bar afterwards. What's gone wrong?

Have very much enjoyed watching both Mikael and Peter race over the years, wish them both a fantastic retirement from our great sport.

Sorted

Yes, would certainly be interested in helping ....

Hi, this is a long shot but does anyone know of Shaun Staff of East Dereham in Norfolk. I am trying to contact him regarding our Supporter's Club trip to the ELRC tomorrow. If you do please ask him to ring 07766768359 urgently, many thanks.

Matt isn't the club, the fans, sponsors and riders are the club ..... main thing he gets on with Middlo .....

I reckon it's up to us oldies (lol) to create a great atmosphere at our clubs, like the "Ipswich Massif" have started to do this year. So a group of enthusiastic, big mouthed, happy fans to make loads of noise, give the away riders a hard time etc etc at every club If youngsters think they are missing out on the fun they will be there ........ maybe
