  1. Jordan Jenkins back in. Crang for Stoneman is now the only guest for Chargers.
  2. You should have come to Oxford mate. Cracking NL meeting last night!
  3. No excuse. No dust at Oxford at Tuesday - which was actually held ON the hottest day of the year, not the day after - until around Heat 13.
  4. Second Chargers crowd was in half term week and was nearer 1000 than 500. In any case, it was several hundred higher than the first Chargers meeting and the Oxford promotion were extremely pleased by the size of the crowd.
  5. Where did you get that from? The BYC wasn't covered, since the Scunny stream is done by a young and enthusiastic group of lads, some of which had college, etc, to go to today and it takes significant time for them to pack up the gear.
  6. Aaron Summers cannot guest for Jordan Palin - it doesn't fit. If Summers guests for Jake, then R/R would have been used for Jordan, and only Wright, Kennedy and Coles would be able to take the rides.
  7. That's not too unreasonable. At Oxford, it's free parking and a free shuttle bus.
  8. If Carlsberg did speedway meetings... Epic night of racing last night! What a meeting! Glasgow played their full part in proceedings, but so glad Oxford managed to win it at the end!
  9. Sneaky? It's advertised in advance. I think you'll find it's free to park at Oxford, with a free shuttle bus. Is if free parking at Glasgow? I hear someone say it's a fiver, but I can't believe it's that much.
  10. Typical BSF negativity. Great 2022 season so far, with most clubs doing good business. Thank goodness those on here are not reflective of those enjoying their speedway on the terraces.
  11. Why? He's ambitious and wanted to see how he would fare against Bowtell. Brilliant display from both reserves last night.
  12. Streams are almost exclusively bought by away fans who cannot travel to the meeting. With, for example. 100 watching, that's ÂŁ1200 per meeting of extra income. If you're spending over ÂŁ1200 per meeting on the production of the stream, then you're doing something wrong.
  13. Are I right in thinking Glasgow are not streaming the meeting this afternoon? No updates from Glasgow's twitter since Friday afternoon.
  14. Sensible decision, as per Scunthorpe v Newcastle and Leicester v Berwick as well, but prepare for someone to turn up tonight, who hasn't checked all day to see whether it was still on or not, and complain that they weren't personally notified
  15. Just to confirm that Henry was a guest today, which is allowed since he is still part of Plymouth's 1-7.
  16. It always says expected, Mr Troll! For the simple reason some of those riders are in action tonight. Something could always happen (hopefully it won't).
  17. You're entitled to your opinion, but likewise we're entitled to express our opinion on your opinion, especially when it is factually incorrect (such as regarding the number of ambulances in attendance each week at the Eddie Wright Raceway).
  18. Medical cover that wasn't available. Do you ever watch the news and are you aware of the staffing crisis within the NHS, or do you spend 100% of your time stirring up trouble on here? No wonder the Leicester promotion banned you from their forum.
  19. Yeah, there were problems with the Leicester track earlier in the season. And the week directly after the blade was brought in, there were problems with large lumps of clay being thrown at the riders who didn't gate. But, fair play, to Leicester, because that was the best racing I've seen at the track last night, so that work with the blade, after they got Andy Meredith in, has ultimately paid off. Personally, I'm now much more likely to pop along later in the season when I've got a spare Saturday or two.
  20. Cracking speedway meeting that - well done Leicester on getting the track right. Utterly different track from three weeks ago, when it was dire for Leicester v Oxford.
  21. Maybe, at this time, thoughts should be with Joe. Meanwhile, just to confirm that the Scunthorpe promotion will allow those with stamped re-admission tickets from tonight full re-entry (without additional payment) for a future Scorpions meeting at the EWR this season using their tickets. This is a goodwill gesture by the club above and beyond the speedway regulations. Earlier in this season, another club took another route after a meeting was called off after two heats.
  22. On the raised first bend viewing, it was noticeable that Ward drifted wide after lifting, and caused the other two to clash. The report on the Leicester website confirms that it was: "an ugly collision involving the three remaining riders on the second bend, resulting in Josh Warren and the Cubs’ Vinnie Foord going heavily into the fence." I was struggling to see how Ward had not been excluded for it, along with everyone else around me, and then Ward (who IMO should not still have been in the race) tried a daft last bend lunge up the inside of Warren in the second re-run and put Warren out of the rest of the meeting. Of course, these are young lads and nothing was on purpose, but it was very hard not to feel sympathy for Mildenhall, who lost because a key rider (their better reserve) was taken out of the meeting by a Leicester rider, who shouldn't have even been in the race at that point!
