  1. This is Edinburgh. They'll find a loophole, or invent one
  2. I don't think being in the main body of the side helps him, but that's their problem
  3. From reports it seems like Etheridge was at fault for the heat 14 pile up
  4. Don't know if I caught Etheridge on a bad day, but he looks way out of his depth
  5. Talk about ending the meeting on a downer. First the horrific looking crash involving all four riders in heat 14, Leigh Lanham sustaining a hand injury and possible concussion. Then the bizarre decision to put our worst gater up against the Monarchs top two on a dry track with them on the favourable outside gate. Let's hope that gifted point doesn't come back to haunt us. I await the explanation. Track looked dry, maybe due to the expected rain which didn't materialise. Referee had a mare in heat 1. Even Sam Masters admitted it should've been all four back.
  6. There was passing outside & inside, so there's more than just one line
  7. Not surprised he's knackered, he's tiny! Don't think we had any overnight rain, my car is dry! 40% chance of light rain from around 7pm onwards, so they'd better crack on. May be a 5.45 parade with heat 1 starting at 6pm
  8. I saw Dan Bewley a couple of weeks ago racing for Belle Vue. Looked good until he tired later on into the meeting
  9. I was around there in the 90's, but memory is a little hazy. The place resembles a building site at the moment.
  10. You're underestimating chances. I'd say you have a very good chance of taking the points away
  11. Speedway isn't all about big fast throttle jockey tracks. It's been good this year. No complaints from Rye fans
  12. I think it's still 50p for the toll, but I haven't travelled up there for a while. Id suggest you get to Rye at least 45 mins before the start as the car park fills very quickly. Watch out for the huge pot hole at the car park entrance. I once saw a Smart Car disappear into it and it took a crane to get it out
  13. Ahh yes. Of course. Probably the lowest gate so far
  14. Don't think there was one when he was at school age
  15. It's pretty obvious to regulars. Attendances look up on last year at Rye. We haven't faced a Northern team yet, so have had the benefit of travelling support. Out of interest Ben, why did you stop attending?
  16. I remember it well. Boxall was averaging close to 8.00 when they changed the rules, Armstrong around 7.00
  17. 6 of Kargers 11 points have come in the reserves race. The only riders in the 1-5 that Karger has beaten are Jake Allen and Michael Palm Toft. If this Etheridge kid is worse than Karger he must be really bad!
  18. Yeah, obvious. You heard it second hand and jumped to that conclusion. Out of interest, when did he make "a spectacle of himself" there? Do we know Simon Steads thoughts about the state of the track?
  19. Sheffield away used to be a must not miss in my speedway calender, but personal circumstances have changed, so away meetings, other than Ipswich and Peterborough, have had to be binned
  20. I was, just got home. Usually finish about 2, but took overtime instead of travelling up
