He wasn't a flop the night he beat Ole Olsen at West Ham!

I've been to four meetings on the island this season. The latest one to finish was last weeks cradley match which ended at 21.05!

I went to IOW last Thursday, lakeside Friday, peterborough Sunday and kent on Monday. There were decent crowds at all four venues, so it's not all doom and gloom.

not a problem according to mr drury!

I can't believe that jack rode on after being thrown over the fence like a rag doll. Best wishes also to shane hazelden after another awful looking crash in heat 14.

I went to Peterbrough yesterday, it was an excellent meeting. Including tractor breaks and interval it was all done and dusted within 90 minutes. Barring accidents, this is how all meetings should be run.

the crowds have always been very good at arena on Saturdays.

It was an excellent meeting last night with some very good racing. With zagar in their side the aces could have nicked a win. Not a bad crowd considering the horrendous traffic problems in the surrounding areas.

tuesday is the top flight race night in Sweden.

the flag Marshall had his back to the oncoming bike, so knew very little about it!

No zagar for belle vue tonight, R/R instead. 'Tape burn to his neck' is the official reason for his absence. Don't you just love the EL!

tyler lost control entering the third bend and the bike careered across the centre green almost collecting the flag Marshall on the fourth bend!. The handlebars looked detached when the bike came to a halt. I'm not sure if that was the cause of the crash.

It was good to see a big crowd on the island last night. It was not the best of meetings racing wise, but the close score kept the match interesting.

maybe they should have learned from last season. The lack of meetings and awful track conditions have made watching speedway at rye a chore for me this year. I hope things improve soon.

The new promoters at rye seem to have no sense of urgency in running meetings. Strung out parades, multiple tractor breaks and extended intervals just add to the experience of watching Speedway in a building site.

the lack of dirt on the track at rye this season is an embarrassment. who is responsible for this, the infamous mr richter or is he acting under orders. come back len all is forgiven!

i have to agree. Seeding the home nation is just a gimmick to boost advance ticket sales.

Whatever the reasons, the loss of Hancock and pedersen tonight definitely devalued the event. It's the fans that attended I feel sorry for.

Awful meeting, I'm struggling to stay awake watching this. Pearson deserves an oscar for trying to talk this up.

I went to the 1984 long track final at herxheim. It poured with rain the night before the meeting. I can remember the emergency services doing a fantastic job, pumping the water off the track to ensure the final could go ahead.

you and me both!

I didn't enjoy the last two day event in 1985, so I was never going to go to this. I was suprised to see dave kennett at Eastbourne last night, when eddie was riding at the showground.

Kent seem to have gone off the boil a bit recently. So i'm going for a narrow home win.

An excellent meeting tonight with some cracking racing from both teams. It exceeded my expectations for sure!

paul carrington was the ref on monday.
