  1. It was put in place so unscrupulous promoters couldn't cheat, I doubt none of them thought it a way of punishing riders?
  2. We know, should be a competative match then, in theory.
  3. But if it's not sunny? Is the interval as much for the staff though? All he needs to do is have something ready for if there is a sun delay, photo sessions? Interviews? Crowd interaction? Competition on facebook/twitter? Send in funny selfies while ya wait? Drop the clutch comp (every track should have one of those, with a yearly competition for the fans!), get all the kids together and talk to them, give the kids rides on the bikes (seen a pic of that done recently!), loads of stuff to while away half hour!
  4. So you want him to start the meetings at 2030 during the Summer?
  5. Re Lynn at Leicester, who would've been missing from our original line up?
  6. Given he injured himself here, that will be a no surely?
  7. Short of Buster building a tall structure to stop the sun it's just par for the course, we're used to it lol
  8. I know the reason why we don't, what can we do, try to build new stadiums that we can use when we want, there's been a few built relatively recently you could say ... That's no good when all these boys come into speedway with the dream of becoming world champion, we need them to be able to rival all the world's talented riders on similar machinery surely?
  9. We have this a Lynn all the time now and apparently there were trees and taller buildings stopping the sun years ago ...
  10. It's like a role reversal from our dominant years, so we need to now look for same night racedays. We also need tracks that suit the bikes these days .... surely would help our cause? As for working with the Polish, they have the upper hand for now. Do we need to look at the way Denmark have pulled rank?
  11. So you think it's OK for riders to go into a corner with the sun shining in their eyes? 😯
  12. Take some pack up!! Never eat at Lynn, orange juice in the bar after for £1.50 and possibly a cuppa during the mtg, £1.50 too ...
  13. No, I don't like the fact that the GP Series is owned by an independant company so league speedway does not benefit ....
  14. Yeah I'd be peed off if my fav rider did this but it is what it is (as the riders quote), Jack Holder is one of Peterborough's most entertainibg riders and for one meeting when there is another rider to step in the breach, support ya team? Ged wants to carry on working with him, sees him as a big asset so is seeing his point of view, great to see they have a good working relationship ...
  15. They have all been pretty forthright with their opinions over the years ...
  16. Aussies have always been an integral part of British Speedway, it's up to promoters of the day to employ them or not, give them good deals or not. They have to make a success of their speedway careers here or they are off back down under, simple as that really. Over the years British Speedway fans have delighted in the talent and form of their Aussie riders.
  17. It's the old jumping on the bandwagon effect :@ Batch was doing great, he'd won Rider of the Night often.
  18. Crowd was as expected when Lynn was probs the only place that wasn't raining in the evening! There were a few passes and chases but our gating was poor on the whole and on a slicker track gating is key. Kai was voted Stars Rider of the Night again, well deserved. The new look team are after a gripper track.
  19. Buster bladed the track last night so it was as it had been before that Thursday... that's been one of the things for me, why completely change the track conditions for that Thursday against Poole when we wanted everyone to be confident and set up, we wanted to beat the Pirates, should've done the double on them and could've, but no, rest is history 🙁
  20. Holder got his punishment, Buster then punished him again big time!
