Yeah, its been a long time Paul! Hopefully catch up next season 🤞 I was lucky enough to be in hospitality yesterday so avoided the dust on 1 & 2 😬 Got to watch hts 12 & 13 from the centre green, great battle between Dan and Tate 👍

I often sit in the bend 1 stand and the dust can be bad with even a slight South or south westerly breeze. Whenever that is the case I stand on turns 3 & 4 now.

Track has been much slicker lately than it was today. Plenty of opportunities to pass, sure I remember Hook going round Harris, most other Comets had to produce at least one pass today, and both Tigers managed to relegate Batch to the back in ht 13 (after he'd also come from the back in an earlier ht). Some of what I'm reading on here is utter nonsense, I've seen a hell of a lot worse meetings than that.

I tend to agree with the gaters paradise comment, certainly for the majority of this season. The excitement has come from the closeness of the meeting scores, most of the passing is done by turn 2 lap 1 and getting round the outside of anyone turns 3 & 4 has proven virtually impossible. This hasn't always been the case, yeah you couldn't do it on lap 4 because the start/finish line comes up to quickly, but you could get the nod into turn 1 on previous laps. Still, I've enjoyed most meetings, we've had some nice weather which has been great for watching, just maybe not quite as good for track prep. I do think the track has the potential to produce better racing than it has lately, and it proved that last season.

Nothing short of embarrassing. 3 good meetings and then back to the pre-suspension nonsense. Bought the stream but all that's done is convince me to stick with the GP tomorrow and not bother with the Plymouth one. Ditched it for Leigh - Warrington now, at least it's competitive. Hope Jye isn't too badly beat up after his nasty looking off.

Duplicate post

I was out in Whitehaven with a few m8's last Friday and one of them said to me that I was the only person he knows who likes speedway. Non of the others watch speedway, in fact some were surprised to hear the sport was still on the go.

Berwick obviously not expecting this to be sorted anytime soon 👀

So would this mean that, when we ran last Saturday, we didn't have a promoters licence?

That would make more sense, perhaps a search of companies house could be in order?

Unfortunately we're mainly a team of riders in positions that they shouldn't be in. Tate and Anti aren't heat leaders, the same as Jay and Taylor aren't second strings. So we find ourselves with 2 second strings and 4 reserves. And Troy, who to be fair needs to pick up 15 points per meeting to even keep us competitive. Which he'll never do, unless he makes 5 worldy starts.

Signing number 3 incoming, 7 am tomorrow.

Blue has to go....

Reds at home as well, they were 2 to 3 hundred down on last week.

Tough saddled with a 4pt average, a millstone that isn't going away any time soon. Tidy rider, quick when in clear air (around Northside anyway) , gating is pants though and that lets her down hugely.
