Wolves Speedway potential new stadium???
SPEEDY69 replied to Pauldoveyspeedway's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I think the same company, Entain, just closed Crayford dog track as well. -
The appeal meeting has much more justification to be appealed than the original rejection.
-
The wager is on! 😄 I'm biased because I never rated MJJ when he rode in the UK before and don't care about overseas form 🙈
-
I'd be really surprised if Jensen achieves a higher average than Zagar, I reckon MJJ 6.5, Zagar 7
-
Nothing to do with that - suggest you look into what happened & who was involved.
-
A higher pay rate/and or closer to home/easier for travel to other things can all be reasons, it's a job after all 🙂

Oh that's a shame, my wife is in Brisbane at present so I was going to ask her to pop along! -

Another 3 hour affair, Kurtz is on another planet to the rest. Really unusual final with Pickering and Z Cook in it due to semi final breakdowns/falls. Rew quite impressive again. -
2025 Australian Speedway Championships
SPEEDY69 replied to racers and royals's topic in International World of Speedway
I watched this this morning, have to say it seemed really drawn out, probably because they had the support classes. Ben Cook was a little unlucky I thought with an EF and a fall whilst trying to pass with a narrowing gap, two zeros affecting his score. Kurtz was the standout rider though and I've got a little flutter on him for the GPs this year. Of the others, Pickering was poor, Tungate not at the top table but Rew was making some good starts which bodes well for the Brummies. -
He's nowhere near ready for that level i'm afraid but his name opens doors. He might grow into it.

Cardiff GP 2025 Cancelled
SPEEDY69 replied to Phil's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
I've been to Gorzow and unless they changed it, they don't have a roof which covers the track - the seating is mostly covered. -

Oh well, my GP trip is off, it's getting to be a TV only sport these days.... -
Not quite my reading, I think with Brennan it's more that the move to Ipswich was more attractive, with the team they have he can learn from them. If Ipswich wasn't available maybe he'd have stayed at Brum. I don't know him and haven't asked him but there's other reasons why riders change clubs, not just that they don't want to be at one.

Oxford pinched one of their targets?😁 Seriously though, this is disappointing for them. I was hoping they'd be nearer the top of the table next season. Is Steve Worrall not doing top league next year?

Riders with unique styles/characteristics.
SPEEDY69 replied to Zagarmeister's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
I rode with him at Iwade when he must have been about 70 and he was still the same then, a master of the throttle. -
It always used to be a 1.5 multiplier, guess that must have changed then.
-
There are and will continue to be clubs in Poland struggling to survive, it's not all rosy.
-
Any many got used to them losing and didn't want to come along and witness another loss. Winning is attractive. I go simply to see good racing, no matter who wins.
-
Don't think it's that, he's just not competent enough. British speedway is not an easy gig.
-
I have no idea who that is. Someone said he'd ridden here before, was that at Championship level?
-
Not for me, looks like they'll be vying for the spoon with Leicester.
-
I thought Douglas was poor this year when I saw him so again they'll be expecting more I think.
-
It was still an impressive night for him, just for the speed he showed. To me the stand-out rider of the meeting. It shows he's capable and it's consistency, the perennial rider challenge, that eludes him. It will be elsewhere that Leicester fall down I think, unless there's a surprise signing.
