  1. It's by no means certain that Robert will be a Rocket in 2014, but the fact that he seems to be around the place so often is a clue. Tyson Nelson is staying with the Lambert family I gather, so there's another connection. Didn't do Kennett, Danny King & Tai any harm spending their early years racing at Rye House. Of course there's no guarantee he'll flower into the talent we all hope, but he couldn't be in much better hands if he decides to kick off his speedway career at Hoddesdon.
  2. First time texter, from the comments aged around 12, so moronic comments should be expected. I would imagine that he/she was the only texter who came forward, so I suppose any updates are better than none.
  3. I feel for those Plymouth fans. I've been there a few times too. A couple of years ago I was on the Northern Tour with Rye House, based in Berwick. Made it to Edinburgh where we saw 2 heats before the heavens opened. Berwick the following night was the real shocker. It had rained a little in the day, but by late afternoon it was blue sky and bright sunshine. Despite this the meeting was postponed. I climbed up onto the wall outside the stadium to see the track. A couple of puddles on the first turn and that was it! Berwick had injury problems that day and we looked like we were going to take something away from there for a change. That was clearly Berwick Bandits not wanting to race that night
  4. Ok, travelling support wil be considerably less than last week, but with reduced admission failing to draw in the crowds that can only signal struggles ahead
  5. Isn't that the norm at Berwick this year?.. How was the attendance level on a decent day weatherwise with no GP to contend with?
  6. I see Ben Barker has made a remarkable recovery from the wrist he broke at Sheffield on Thursday
  7. B4E will be happy, and when she's happy..... well, you work it out
  8. Has Silver lost interest in Rye House for the sake of his new baby over in Kent?
  9. Highlight of the week for most of them... I've heard of sleepy towns, but that one's in a coma!
  10. If I were him I'd be out looking for an edible hat.
  11. Len Silver is like Marmite, you either love him or hate him. I'm somewhere in the middle
  12. Could go either way this. Reserves will be key and Berwicks are better. Bandits have gotta be sharper from tha gate tonight, cos that track is a bugger to pass on if you stick to the one line
  13. I'm not gutted any more, I'm furious. I've been to loads of away meetings that have been rained off close to the start, but at least they gave it a chance. That's the nature of being a speedway fan in this country unfortunately... To call off a meeting this early on the strength of a questionable weather forecast, just to placate half a dozen or so away fans that may have travelled, is ridiculous... Wonder how much he saved on riders travelling costs today?
  14. I'm still not convinced there was any real effort to get this on
