I thought these riders had to retire if they couldn't double up 🤔😁

Of course the lineup matters, if you expect people to turn up and support it. The early ones had pretty stellar lineups, then it seemed to tail off to become an NDL level meeting before picking up again in recent years... seems to be on the decline again.

Looking pretty good so far 👍

Looks like they're working now 👍

Not showing for me either

Yep, did it with no problems

Don't expect to see him ahead of any Polish fixtures 😂

I thought there was going to be an investigation, in Poland, after DJ Woffy's crash last year... don't know if anything ever came of it?

I've not seen it but just from reading the description on updates it sounded like a nothing fall... and he was stuck under the air fence. Another case of a rider ending up under the air fence, why is this still happening some 20 years after their introduction 🤷‍♂️

" a lengthy spell"

All they have to do is make press & practice day... I wonder if Plymouth still have their spare rider in storage somewhere? Maybe put him on a train and send him up to Northampton just to familiarise the new Northampton fans just what they're getting themselves into 😁

Do you keep a chart? 📈

It's going to take some outside of the box thinking

Like starting your meeting at the advertised time ⏲️

That's a whole season these days! 😂

Yeah... f*#king media... f*#k 'em 🖕😉

2025 SGP2 World Champion Nazar Parnitsyki replaces DJ Woffy.

It wasn't that much better actually being there... Parade advertised for 18:50, they came out just before 19:00, did a lap of the track on the back of fancy bikes, lined up in front of the crowd and then just got on their bikes and did a load of practice starts, Tapes Up advertised 19:00, 2 minutes went on at 19:11. The announcer reading out the line-up often only read it out once after giving the result of the previous race and often read it out incorrectly. For the first section of the meeting it seemed to be being dictated around the BVTV coverage, which we in the crowd couldn't hear anyway with the ref seemingly not knowing where the 2 minutes button was. Fortunately the Speedway was pretty entertaining... the rest, must do better!

... and now it's raining! If they hadn't faffed about so much and started on time we'd be done by now... when will they ever learn 🤷‍♂️

Chris Holder rolling back the years tonight... superb stuff 👏

Could have been Luke Becker as the replacement if America hadn't started an illegal war with Iran 😂 ... I presume the FIM will be banning all American and Israeli riders from all of their events 🤔

Northampton No Stars

The whole presentation is a bit crap tbh

Parade at 18:50... Fail! It's good to be back 😂
