But you've got to do it in a horse and cart 😉

Is that planned?

What does poor old Nicolai have to do to get a vote 😂 Not even his kids voted for him 😂

Lambo "Make Starts, Break Hearts" on his backside 😂

It's a bit unfortunate for Plymouth, being a Saturday night track, when they ride at Glasgow, Edinburgh, Redcar or Scunny, they have a massive journey back down south for their next match... or up to Worky for a Sunday match.

Just watering the track now, suns out, no rain in the north East

Who's going to pay £100+ to sit in that contraption of a "grandstand" on the home straight though? Or anywhere for that matter?

Look how black that cloud is at 4pm!!!!!!

Do you speak with a strong accent? 😁

50% chance of rain at 15:00 ... this one could be in doubt 😉🤔

Working overtime?

... or call the next few matches off until he's ready to return?

31st of December?

Undoubtedly the correct decision, that was not in question, what is questionable is why Sheffield have only ridden at home 4 times this year... Leicester also 4 by the end of June! In a spring that has had 23% less rain than usual.

I see JD has said it's a "short term" deal, you've got to applaud his honesty and being up front with the fans, some riders should take a lesson from that 👏

Still waiting for the KL match(es) to be rearranged though, as far as I'm aware. For a league with just 6 teams in it and with a spring with 23% less rainfall than usual, staging just 4 Lions matches in 3 months is a pretty pish poor state of affairs. I suppose that's what comes with limiting your trading hours to 2 and half hours a night on 2 days of a week.

"short term" 🤔 ... see Adam Ellis, that's how it's done 👏

So, is he binning off one of his other clubs? I bet the DSF (Danish Speedway Forum) is going into meltdown... has anybody got a link?

Haha... my bad, thanks, that top option is clickable not just a drop down menu. I've been looking at some of the other clubs websites and some are really bad Belle Vue, can't find the results, Glasgow Fixtures and Results on different pages and website kept crashing for me.

It would incentivise clubs to get matches on though and not call matches off days in advance based on a weather forecast that could be wrong (as they often are) safe in the knowledge that there's loads of blank Monday's and Thursdays left in the calendar (until there aren't). To have only staged 4 home matches in a spring that has been 23% drier than normal is frankly ridiculous for a sporting league organisation. ... and to those that oppose the 1 point each and move on solution with the what happens to season ticket holders argument... Leicester have rearranged the Ippo fixture for July the 6th, bang in the middle of holiday season where many, I included, will be unable to attend due to a booked holiday on what was a blank week in the home fixture list.

Not my management, Birmingham's... and the rider himself, as far as I am aware, never made any comment on the length of his contract before signing it or after it's expiration. If you think that the rider has zero responsibility to the fans that are ultimately paying his wages, that's partly why the sport is in the state it's in. Speedway is no longer a team sport, it's just a bunch of hired gun mercenaries travelling Europe to pick up their next wage packet.

Unfortunately I'd say that's highly unlikely, as Wroclaw will be paying for his rehab, he may just possibly return for them, can't see him returning for the Aces though AI: For a professional speedway rider, returning to the track from a broken femur typically takes 4 to 6 months, though highly aggressive elite rehab can sometimes shave this down closer to 3 months if the fracture is clean and heals without complications. However, achieving 100% full physiological recovery and regaining peak pre-injury strength often takes 9 to 12 months

Up to 25th of June 4 home matches!

I think the general point is the lack of fixtures, we all understand calling a meeting off based on a dreadful forecast, that is the common sense thing to do, it's the huge gaps in the fixture list that these postponements cause. Back in the day a track would have an "off" race night that fixtures would be quickly rearranged for, if we're not going to do 1 point each and move on, which I understand is not popular with everybody maybe the PL should take a leaf from Sweden and Denmark and just run on the one night Monday or Thursday, If Monday is washed out you run on the following Thursday.
