  1. Should be straight forward for the Lions but then I thought that against Birmingham last season and they turned us over... could Northamptoningham do the same?
  2. Etheridge at BV earlier in the day, which is a strange choice, so Sedgy should be fresh at least.
  3. LEICESTER: Ryan Douglas, Dan Thompson, Nick Morris, Kyle Howarth, Sam Masters, Drew Kemp, Dan Gilkes. NORTHAMPTON: Jaimon Lidsey, Troy Batchelor, Matej Zagar, MPT, Nicolai Klindt, Kye Thomson, Luke Harrison.
  4. Yes, I saw that maybe he saw the kick coming out of his peripheral vision?
  5. I think it stems back to when the local organisers used to be responsible for track prep and ballsed it up on a couple of occasions. With the FIM (fireman Phil) being responsible for it and under their specific control they have nobody else but themselves to blame, if they want to do it that way it'd probably be better to have a recognised track curator travelling with the circus to oversee track prep, Andy Meredith for example.
  6. a contract he chose to sign... No rider should be signing a contract that demands they should be present with no guarantee of a ride
  7. Lodz changed their mind, Howarth changed his mind it's a bit of an omnishambles the only winners in this are Berwick DT lost he chose to travel to Poland for no Speedway Edinburgh lost, literally at Berwick DT's team mates lost, unlikely to progress in the BSN series, therefore the rest of the team miss 2 extra pay days The fans lost, seeing a competitive Speedway match. Even Lodz could only muster a draw, maybe if they had used DT they could have scraped a win. The guest facility is being totally abused now, as far as I know it only used to be available for injuries or official international duties... now it's a free for all, rider choosing to travel elsewhere, guest, rider going on holiday during the season for a week, guest...
  8. That is my point. Imo Edinburgh shouldn't have been allowed any facility at all, they chose to run without DT and should reap the consequences.
  9. Even if you're self employed you still have to abide by the rules of those that choose to buy your services... and therein probably lies the problem, while the SCB are busy banning people for being stuck in traffic and/or missing flights they allow this practice to go on. I don't know how guests are booked, is it just a verbal agreement or is the booking registered with the SCB? I bet it's probably the former.
  10. It was good to see Bewley so visibly disappointed with the loss which I took to be a good sign, he's not really shown that before.
  11. It's okay... I'll just vote with my feet and my wallet 👍🏻 ... like everybody else has
  12. So, Dan Thompson and the Edinburgh management have cost the rest of the team an extra 2 meetings... well done to all concerned 👏 The fans? Screw the fans 🖕
  13. WTF was Zmarzlik playing at looking at Lambert like that? 🤷‍♂️ Well done to Coventry legend Woryna! Seems like a genuine lad... @THE DEAN MACHINE must be made up he predicted he'd be competitive 👍🏻
  14. Mayfield Sports Events... start as you mean to go on 😂 It's a new era...
  15. It's cost cutting isn't it... but 2 meetings and 2 practice/quali sessions on one track in 2 days is too much imo.
  16. This meeting would have been abandoned in the UK with the amount of water on the track in heat 5! 😂
